put Select setting (p.12). If you want to change the cabinet model, turn value
knob 1. If you don’t want to use a cabinet model, press the CABINET button
once again to turn it off; the icon will disappear from the LCD display.
6. Press the NR/PROG LVL button, and adjust NR (value knob 4) so that you
don’t hear noise when you’re not playing your bass. The effect will become
stronger as you increase the noise reduction setting (0.2, 0.4–10.0). If this is
off, no noise reduction is applied.
HINT: Depending on the bass you’re using, raising the noise reduction excessively
may cause notes to be cut off prematurely or to be delayed. Adjust the setting so
that your playing doesn’t feel unnatural.
7. In each section, choose the effect you want to use. For example if you want to
add spring reverb, use the REVERB selector to select SPRING.
HINT: At this time, the reverb model will automatically be turned on, and the LEDs
below the value knobs for each reverb parameter will light. For example, the param-
eters for SPRING are TIME, LO DAMP, HI DAMP, PRE DLY, and MIX, which are
controlled by value knobs 1–5 respectively.
8. To adjust the reverb mix amount, use value knob 5 which controls the MIX
parameter.
In the same way for PRE FX, MODULATION, and DELAY effects, use the
selector to choose an effect and the value knobs to adjust the parameters.
9. If you want to use an external device that’s connected to the insert effect jacks,
press the INSERT switch to turn on the signal route to your external device.
HINT: In some cases, it may be easier to adjust PRE FX or an insert effect while
listening to the original sound unprocessed by the modulation, delay, and reverb
effects. When using PRE FX or an insert effect, make the desired amp and cabinet
settings first, and then adjust your PRE FX or insert effect settings before the
remaining effects.
NOTE: For some models, the name of the parameter will differ from the names
printed in the parameter lines of the edit section. The actual name is shown in the
display when you turn the value knob. For details on the parameters, refer to
“Explanations of the Effect Types” on p.23.
10.Press the NR/PROG LVL button, and adjust PROG LVL (value knob 5) so that
the volume is consistent with other programs. Some effect settings may cause
clipping (distortion) to occur, so lower the PROG LVL if this happens.
NOTE: The factory program level setting is 5.0.
11.If you want to continue making adjustments, simply press the select button for
the model you want to edit, and turn the value knobs.
