Selecting and adjusting sub-parameters
[PRE FX-P ARAM], [DRIVE/AMP-PARAM], [MOD-PARAM], [DELA Y/
REV-PARAM]
Here’ s how to edit the sub-par ameters of the effect y ou’v e selected for each
of the [PRE FX], [DRIVE/AMP], [MOD], and [DELAY/REV] categories.
When you press the [▲] or [▼] buttons , the program/value displa y will indicate
a value of P1–P4, and the LED in the upper part of the program down pedal
will light (or blink) to indicate that the parameter type is being displayed.
For the sub-parameters that correspond to P1–P4, refer to p .51 “Param-
eter List”.
Now you can use the value dial to edit the sound by adjusting the vari-
ous sub-parameters. At this time , the program/v alue display will indicate
the parameter value, and the LED in the upper par t of the program up
pedal will light to indicate that the parameter value is being displayed.
If the effect is turned off, the program/value display will indicate “ ”
when you set the function selector to a [PARAM] position for that cat-
egory. If you want to edit the parameters of that effect, simultaneously
press both the [▲] and [▼] buttons to turn the effect on.
■ Quick guide
To select an eff ect and edit it to your taste, y ou should first adjust the main
parameters, and then adjust sub-parameter P1. In most cases, you’ll be
able to get the sound you want by adjusting these two parameters.
[LEVEL/NR/CAB/PEDAL]
Set the function selector to this position when you want to adjust the
program level, noise reduction, or cabinet modeling. Then press the [s]
or [t] buttons to cycle the display through “ ”(program level), “ ”
(NR sensitivity), “ ”(cabinet), and “ ”, “ ”(Expression pedal
target range). Use the value knob to adjust each parameter.
:Use the value knob to adjust the program level (0.0–10). A setting
of 5.0 is the standard value. Some effect settings may cause clip-
ping. If this occurs, lower the program level.
:Adjust the noise reduction sensitivity (0.0–10) so that you don’t hear
noise (hiss) when you’re not playing your bass.
Depending on the bass you’re using, notes ma y be cut off if you raise the
noise reduction value excessiv ely. Adjust this so notes ring out naturally.
:Select the type (C0–C9) of cabinet modeling.
You can’t edit the cabinet model if the drive/amp model is off. In this
case, the LED will indicate “ ”.
Cabinet modeling is associated with the drive/amp model. It works
only if the drive/amp model is turned on. When you change the drive/
amp model type, the most suitable cabinet model is selected auto-
matically.

fully advanced away from yourself.
Effect/parameter type and parameter value display
When you press the Program Down switch in Edit mode, the program/
value displa y will indicate the eff ect type or parameter type (F0–F9, d0–
d5, A0–A9, P1–P4). When you press the Program Up switch, the pro-
gram/value display will indicate the parameter value. This gives you a
convenient way to check the current settings.
Expression pedal settings
Make the program/v alue displa y show the eff ect parameter (F0–F9, d0–
d5, A0–A9, P1–P4). Mak e sure that the LED of the prog r am up pedal or
program down pedal is blinking, and then hold down the pedal setting
switch for about one second.
You can’t use the expression pedal to control a parameter for which the
program up pedal or program down pedal does not blink.
The program/v alue displa y will briefly indicate “ ”(Complete), and you’ll
be able to use the expression pedal to control the effect parameter.
