What’s In A Rig?
Each Rig in Eleven Rack contains the following
devices for processing your guitar signal, and
each of them has settings you can control:
• Amplifier
• Speaker cabinet and microphone
• Seven simultaneous effects (such as Wah, Dis-
tortion, Modulation, and Reverb)
• Volume pedal
• FX Loop
In addition, there are a group of “Utility” set-
tings in each Rig:
• Input, which lets you manipulate the True-Z
input impedance circuitry
• Output, which lets you change the Rig vol-
ume, To Amp output volume, and switch the
Rig output between mono and stereo
• Tempo, which lets you set the Rig tempo
• Pedal, which lets you configure an external
footswitch or expression pedal accessory
• Display, which lets you set the device whose
controls are displayed in Rig Select view (like
Amp, Mod, or FX1)
Rig View
Rig View is a special editing mode you access by
pressing the Edit/Back button on the front panel
of Eleven Rack. When you’re done editing, press
the Edit/Back button again to get back to the
main Rig Select mode.
In Rig View, you can access every aspect of the
current Rig, from the amp, cabinet, and micro-
phone type, all the way to choosing effects, and
changing their order in the signal chain.
Once you’ve entered Rig View, you’ll see a selec-
tion of icons, each representing a different de-
vice or utility setting within the current Rig.
Turn the Scroll wheel to select the element you
want to access.
As you scroll through the list, certain functions
will be assigned to the lit Control Knobs, like
choosing the type of amp or effect you want to
use.
