ZOOM 504 II

ACOUSTIC

The patches of the 504 II consist of ten effect parameters (including two
global parameters). By setting these parameters to the desired values,
you can control the sound of a patch.
It is also possible to switch individual parameters on and off, and to
program the expression pedal to adjust the value of a specific parameter.

The parameters TYPE, LIMIT/EDGE, LOW/BODY, HIGH/TOP have
separate settings for acoustic and for electric guitar. Depending on
whether ACOUSTIC or ELECTRIC is selected for the TYPE
parameter, the content of the other three parameters changes as follows.

This section describes all parameters and their setting values.

How to read the listing

De-AMP

This parameter serves for attenuating frequency bands that can
sound harsh when an acoustic guitar is reproduced via a guitar
amplifier. Choose the BRIGHT COMBO, COMBO, or STACK

DELAY+REVERB

This is an effect which combines delay (delay time 210 mS) and
reverb. Higher values result in deeper reverb effect and higher delay
sound mixing ratio.

PEDAL DELAY+REVERB

Allows using the expression pedal (FP01/FP02) connected to
the CONTROL IN jack to adjust the delay sound mixing balance
(reverb depth is fixed).

oF

Sets the DELAY&REVERB parameter to OFF.

DELAY&REVERB

Mixes a delayed component and reverb component to the
original sound, producing a feeling of depth and ambience.

[PLAY/EDIT] selector

Shows the position which is
used to call up the parameter.

Global parameter

Global parameters that apply to all patches are marked with a " ".

Display

Shows the setting range that is
available for that parameter.

Parameter on/off

Except for the TYPE parameter,
all parameters have an " "
setting which disables the
parameter. (The effect is the
same as when both [ ]/[ ]
foot switches are pressed
together in edit mode.)

Expression pedal

A pedal icon ( ) in the listing indicates
that the parameter can be controlled with
the expression pedal (FP01/FP02) when
the value is selected.

If there is no parameter marked with a
pedal icon selected in the entire
patch, the expression pedal operates
as a volume pedal.

When ACOUSTIC
is selected

TYPE, LIMIT/EDGE, LOW/BODY, HIGH/TOP
function as a "preamp" that adjusts the
character and dynamics of the acoustic guitar
sound.

When ELECTRIC
is selected

TYPE, LIMIT/EDGE, LOW/BODY, HIGH/TOP
function as a "simulator" for changing the
sound of an electric guitar into that of an
acoustic instrument.
