AxSys 212 User Manual 9
Example: If, when power was last turned off, the selected mode was Preset
and the selected Sound was 28B, the LED display would now read P28,
and the LED pointer above the SOUND B button would be lit.
If the selected Sound was edited, the display will indicate this by showing
an E to the left of the Sound Bank number, instead of a P or U, like this:
E28
Adjusting Volume Levels
In order to get the best tone, it is really important that you set the input
level as loud as you can before clipping.

GUITAR AUX MASTER
CLIP CLIP
To set the volume levels:
1Turn the GUITAR, AUX and MASTER knobs on the left side of the front
panel down to zero.
2On your electric guitar, select the loudest pickup.
If your guitar has a humbucking pickup, use it. Otherwise, try the pickup
closest to the neck.
3Turn your guitarÕs volume and tone controls to max.
4Play your guitar as loud as possible.
5Slowly turn the GUITAR input knob clockwise.
Continue playing loudly while adjusting this knob until the CLIP LED lights
up.
6Turn the GUITAR input knob counterclockwise slightly.
This will set the input level to a point where clipping will only occur
occasionally when playing your guitar hard.
7Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the AUX input if youÕre going to use it.
Example: If using a microphone, sing loudly into the microphone and adjust
the AUX knob until the CLIP LED flashes occasionally.
8Adjust the MASTER knob to a comfortable listening level.
