Quick Start

Before you make connections with any external
devices, turn all volumes to the minimum position
and turn off the power.

1.

If you will be powering the AX10G with batteries,
open the battery compartment located on the
bottom panel, and install four AA alkaline
batteries (sold separately). If you will be powering
the AX10G with the separately sold AC adaptor,
connect the AC adaptor to the rear panel DC9V
connector (the power will turn on).

2.

Set the INPUT L/H switch to the appropriate
position for the output of your guitar. If your guitar
has high-output pickups such as humbucking
pickups, use the “H” position. If your guitar has
low-output pickups such as single-coil pickups,
use the “L” position.

3.

Connect your guitar to the AX10G’s INPUT jack.
If you are using batteries, the power of the
AX10G will turn on at this point.

4.

If you are connecting the AX10G to a guitar amp,
set the AMP/LINE switch to “AMP”. If you are
connecting the AX10G to headphones, a recorder,
or a mixer, set this switch to “LINE”.

5.

Connect the AX10G’s OUTPUT jack to the INPUT
of your guitar amp or recorder. If you want to use
headphones, connect them to the OUTPUT jack.

6.

Turn on the power of the connected equipment,
and raise the volume to an appropriate level. You
can also use the AX10G’s MASTER buttons to
adjust the volume.

7.

Press the program select switches to change
programs.

TIPS

The AX10G has 40 preset programs
(01~94) and 40 user programs (0.1~9.4).
With the factory settings, the user
programs contain the same contents as
the preset programs.

8.

You can control the pedal effect by using the
expression pedal. The pedal is active when the
PEDAL LED at the upper left of the pedal is lit. If
this LED is dark, advance the pedal all the way
forward to make the LED light. Now the pedal will
be active.

9.

Editing the sound
Use the AMP TYPE selector to select an amp
type, and use the various control knobs to adjust
the gain, tone, and volume etc.

10.

Editing an effect
If you want to edit the modulation effect or
ambience effect (located after the amp), use the
MODULATION selector or AMBIENCE selector to
select the desired effect, and use the DEPTH
buttons located below the selector to adjust the
effect depth etc. You can also adjust the speed
etc. of a modulation effect by holding down the
FUNCTION button and pressing the DEPTH
buttons (which act as the SPEED buttons). For the
ambience effect, you can set the delay or reverb
time by pressing the TAP button at the desired
interval.

11.

To edit the pre-effect located before the amp,
press the PRE FX button to select an effect, and
use the VALUE buttons to make adjustments.

This concludes our brief introduction to the
AX10G. This manual contains much more
