Troubleshooting
No sound / Low volume:
Is the BF-3 properly connected to your
instrument?
Check the connection once more (p. 8).
Is the volume turned down on any guitar
amp or effects device you have connected?
Are you inputting to both the GUI-
TAR IN and BASS IN jacks?
The GUITAR IN jack is given priority.
If both jacks are used at the same time,
the signal that has been applied at
BASS IN will not be heard.
Sound is distorted:
Is the battery low?
As the battery is drained, the CHECK
indicator dims, and the BF-3 may start
to function incorrectly. Replace with a
new battery (p. 14).
Could the level of the sound being in-
put be excessive?
With some guitars, distortion may be
produced. Be careful of your guitar's
output level.
Can’t input the tempo:
Is the MODE knob set to MOMENTARY?
In MOMENTARY mode, the pedal
switch only functions as an effect on/
off switch.
Tempo not synchronized with the tempo input:
Is the MODE knob set to GATE?
When synching to GATE, please refer
to “Relationship Between the Flanger
and Gate Effects” (p. 13).
