You should read these Important Safety Instructions.
Keep these instructions in a safe place.
Before using your ToneCore, carefully read the applicable items of these operating instructions and the safety suggestions.
1. Obey all warnings on the pedal and in the ToneCore Pilot's Handbook.
2. Connect optional power supply only to AC power outlets rated 100-120V or 200-240V 47-63Hz (see indications on optional power supply).
3. Do not perform service operations beyond those described in the ToneCore Pilot's Handbook. Service is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as:
•
power-supply cord or plug is damaged
•
liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus
•
the unit has been exposed to rain or moisture
•
the unit does not operate normally or changes in performance in a significant way
•
the unit is dropped or the enclosure is damaged.
4. Do not place near heat sources, such as radiators, heat registers, or appliances which produce heat.
5. Guard against objects or liquids entering the enclosure. Do not use or place unit near water.
6. Unplug the power supply when not in use for extended periods of time. Unplug the power supply during lightning storms.
7. Clean only with a damp cloth.
8. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
9. Prolonged listening at high volume levels may cause irreparable hearing loss and/or damage. Always be sure to practice “safe listening.”

Über Metal Pilot’s Handbook
Output your ToneCore to your
amplifer, or route it through
another effect pedal.
Conect your guitar
using a standard
cable.

You can,
of course,
feed your
ToneCore
with
another
effect pedal
instead of a
guitar.

Connections and Power Indicator Light
Greetings and salutations! Thank you for inviting the
mighty Line 6 Über Metal high gain distortion pedal
into your life.
Effect On-Off / Power Indicator Light
The Power Indicator Light on your ToneCore uses two
colors to indicate the pedal’s state:
• Light not lit – Effect is bypassed (off)
• GREEN – Effect is engaged (on)
• RED (flashing) – Batteries should be replaced
This low power indication will override all other states

In Jack
Here’s where it all begins. Use a standard guitar cable
to connect your guitar, or the output of another effect
to use in combination with your ToneCore. Like most
pedals, inserting a plug into this jack will turn on
the power to your ToneCore. Disconnect the plug
from this jack when the ToneCore is not being used.
Out Jack
Use a standard guitar cable to connect to the input of
a guitar amp, or the input of another effect that will
feed your amp.
Power Jack
Connect an optional ToneCore-compatible Line 6
power supply like the DC-1, and you'll never need a
9-volt battery again!
Foot Switch
Stomp on this to turn Über Metal’s effect sound
processing on and off.

Über Metal Pilot’s Handbook

Controls
Level
Higher levels will hit the amp or effect fed by the Über
Metal with more signal level, giving you more volume.
If the level is high enough, it may also cause unwanted
distortion within the receiving amp or pedal.
Mid & Scoop
Mid chooses a frequency from 250Hz to 4kHz. Scoop
then removes sound at this frequency, with maximum
scoop at the fully clockwise setting. Turn it fully
counter-clockwise for a slight Mid boost.
Drive
This controls the amount of distortion created within
your Über Metal. Especially when you've got it set high,
you may need to use the Gate to tame unwanted noise.
Bass & Treble
Bass and Treble are more/less controls for your low and
high frequencies. Point the knob straight up to leave
your tone unaltered.

Model Switch
Give this a flick to reconfigure the virtual circuitry
inside your Über Metal, and enjoy three distinctly
different sound “flavors”.
Metal creates screaming distortion, from heavy grind
to molten metal! Bow down, infidels.
Pulverize gives you a distortion similar to a high gain
tube amp. Mmmm, it’s warm and meaty!
Insane has more skin-peeling gain and sustain than
anything else available, and boy does it sound good.
Gate
Off – Disables the Gate.
Gate 1 – A soft and mild noise gate, self-adjusting to
your current Drive knob setting (cool, huh?).
Gate 2 – A heavy, fast-clamping gate. Great for those
aggressive metal chords and palm muting.

Battery Access Instructions

3 ) Squeezing hinge,
raise pedal to
reveal battery.

1) Depress pedal fully.

2 ) While holding pedal,
squeeze both sides of
hinge as shown.

Battery Access Instructions
Power Supply
Connect an optional Line 6 DC-1 power supply and
you'll never need a 9-volt battery again! It is also
compatible with most popular 9 Volt DC stomp boxes.
Using the power supply will disconnect the battery.

Example Tones

Early Metal
Journey back with us to the world
of vintage metal. Large numbers of
smoke pots and 4x12 cabinets are
highly recommended.

80’s Metal
Squeeze into your Spandex and pull
out the AquaNet—this is hair
metal at its best! You’ll want to use
a guitar with humbuckers for best
results. Perhaps a dayglo yellow one
would do the trick.

Monster Metal
It slices, it dices, it shears off body
parts! The aggressive gate setting is
perfect for choppy chordal rhythms
and other forms of N u Metal
madness.

Your Tone Settings

Mark the knob and switch settings for your favorite tones above.
