Quick start
The VM-202 integrates several routing modes for different hardware configurations
(Please refer to the
part 3. 1 for more information regarding the routing).. In its basic configuration, the VM-202 is set-up to
receive an unbalanced mono signal on the input 1, and deliver a different simulation on the L and R
channels.

For this test setup, you must bring a guitar or bass preamplifier with a line output and a pair of head-
phones.
If your preamplifier has only balanced or unbalanced jack 6,35mm (stan-
dard 1/4") output but no XLR line output, please use an XLR to TRS jack
cable (Tip - Ring - Sleeve, jack with 3 contacts.
Plug your preamplifier to the input 1. (number 11 in figure 2.3). Plug your headphones in the stereo jack
output of the VM-202 (number 8 in figure 2.2 2.2). Finally, plug your preamplifier and the VM-202 to the wall
outlet and turn them on.
The VM-202 starts on the test preset 00. Now the input and output gain must be set up. The SGA (Safe
Gain Adjustment) being activated by default, a 6 steps method to quickly and easily set up these gain
settings is presented here :
1. Turn off the volume of the headphone output, and of any devices connected to the analog or digital
outputs of the VM-202.
2. Set the input gain to its maximum value (+12dB).
