Introduction(obligatory Opening9Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Peavey Tube Fex’“‘. The Tube Fex is a MIDI programmabledual 12AIY7 tube guitar preamp with 24-bit digital stereo effects processing in a one-rack-space unit.The Tube Fex is two different signal processors in one unit. First, it is a dual-tube guitar preamp that deliversfat tone, crisp, clean settings, and thick distortions with a fully programmable, highly user-friendly interface.In fact, it is probably the most user-friendly MIDI-programmable tube preamp in the industry today. The gainand tone knobs are actually data encoders. Each is surrounded by eleven, easy-to-see LEDs that indicate eachknob’s setting. As each new program is called up, different LEDs around each knob light up, indicating thesettings for the new program. You can change gain and tone settings by turning individual data encodersknobs, and when you find the setting you like, simply press the store button and the changes will be savedto the program.The Tube Fex has 37 effects types available, including eight reverbs, three delays, chorus, flange, exciter, coiltap, auto pan, noise gate, stereo splitter, dual pitch shifters, tube and digital distortions, hum filter, envelopefilter, stereo tremolo, compression, selectable front panel tone controls, four internal EQs, speaker simulator,and fx loop. Effects algorithms are completely user-definable and true-stereo effects chains can be written.The tube preamp can be placed anywhere in the effects chain. Even the digital distortion can be usedsimultaneously with the tube distortion to create unique stereo effects.The Tube Fex features mono inputs and mono/stereo outputs.FEATURESUp to seven simultaneous effectsMIDI-programmable dual 12Ax7 tube preampMIDI-programmable digital stereo effects processor with over 30 effect typesUser-definable effects algorithmsSelectable front panel tone controls, 3 internal graphic EQs, or a 4-band parametric EQStereo effects chains are fully independentDual pitch shiftersProgralnmdble master output level on each effect128 user programs, 128 factory presetsRA.M card slot for storing or adding 128 additional programs and presetsPreamp gain and tone knobs are data encoders that allow changes in knob settings to be stored11 easy-to-see LEDs around each knob indicate control positionProgrammable 4-position tube mode adds tube gain stages and utilizes passive and active EQsProgrammable global room EQ and pre and post gain levelsOn-board chromatic tuner with programmable muteMono inputs (front and rear panel), mono/stereo outputs, stereo balanced direct outputsInternal power supplySingle rack spaceProgrammable FX loop with stereo sends and returnsAssignable clip LEDProgrammable speaker simulatorand moreIntro
