Post Here's some blank settings sheets for VT Bass pedal:

Sign in to disble this ad
I just got a Tech 21 VT Bass pedal last night, and realized I'd need some way to remember my favorite settings – so I made these sheets for writing down my favorites.

Anyway, I thought I'd share them in case anyone else was interested. They look like this:

One per 8-˝" x 11" page:


Four per 8-˝" x 11" page:


I kept the graphics intentionally simple because who wants to waste expensive printer ink?

Of course if you want them, don't print out the low-res jpegs above. Here's a link to the high-res pdf versions, sized to fit standard American letter–sized paper (8-˝" x 11"):

Hope these come in handy for some of you out there!

EDIT: In case you don't like the ones above, there are several different versions of these sheets on the first two pages of this thread. Just scroll down.

Nice work! Can I suggest an alternate version?

It'd be cool of you just had all the knobs on one line with labels under each and a place for a setting name. That way, you could fit more on a single page. Like this...

Setting_Name___ O O O O O O
Setting_Name___ O O O O O O
Setting_Name___ O O O O O O
Setting_Name___ O O O O O O
Setting_Name___ O O O O O O
Setting_Name___ O O O O O O
Setting_Name___ O O O O O O
Setting_Name___ O O O O O O

Not a bad idea... how's this?

Why not just have empty circles where you can just make a simple tick mark with a pen?

I don't understand what you mean – you need to write down the position of the knobs to be able to refer to them later. What good do tick marks do? What would they signify?

They signify the white lines on each of the knobs. You'd put blank knobs on the sheet and people could place a tick mark on the blank knob to represent where the white line was for a particular setting. It's better to be able to just glance at it visually than to have to read a particular number and then translate it to the knob.

Thanks Jjango. Actually, I wanted to do this a couple of days ago, but then my computer crashed... now I can only use the computer at work, so I can't draw anything.

I'll take a look at your blanks. Are they the same size as the real VT?
(Asking this because what I wanted to do is a blank same size as the VT with same graphics, punch holes for the knobs, bypass and LED, then put it OVER my real VT-Bass so not to lose it)

Perfect, that rocks! I can fill in the dots with a No. 2 pencil just like the SAT's.

These are really cool. Thank you for taking the time to create these charts. My VT Bass should arrive on Wednesday. I'm going to go through some of the 'settings' thread here on TB and fill in your charts with peoples favorites.

BTW - My faves are the last one and the 4-up.

Maybe the thread with favorite VT Bass settings could be a sticky so people wouldn't have to keep searching for it.

Great idea! I just got the VT pedal a few days ago myself and was thinking about putting a page like this together.

I find that I set all of the knobs slightly left of dead center to get the tone that I like. That is a setting that is easy to remember.

It would be nice if the VT bass had 4 presets and an xlr out.

TS, what do you use to make these blank sheets? I'd like to make some for my pedals.
