<How to edit parameters>

The "

shows all parameters for the explanation. Actually,
you can see 5 parameters at a time while the other

<Storing parameter settings>

It will be a good idea to store a favorite pa-
rameter setting to a scene.
You can recall a stored setting whenever you
like. See page 52 for details about the scene
memory.

After making desired effect parameter settings in
rehearsal, record the guitar while monitoring the
effected sound.
Note that the dry sound is recorded though you
monitor the wet sound.
We assume that track 1 is "Input monitor" (i.e. the
[RECORD] key and the

[TRACK STATUS/TRACK SEL]

key for track 1 are flashing).

Recording the guitar

Press the [EXIT/NO] key to switch to the Normal
screen.

Press the [PLAY] key while holding down the
[RECORD] key to start recording and play the
guitar.

The dry sound is recorded to track 1 while the wet
sound is monitored.
The screen shows both the recording level of the gui-
tar and the monitor level.

Press the [STOP] key to stop recording.

The

[TRACK STATUS/TRACK SEL]

key for track 1 still

flashes, while the

[RECORD]

key turns off.

Press the [REWIND] key while holding down the
[STOP] key to locate to the beginning of the pro-
gram.

<To playback the recorded sound>

To check the recorded "

dry

" sound just re-

corded, press the

[EFFECT]

key while holding

down the

[SHIFT]

key to turn off the effect,

then press

[PLAY]

key to start playback.

If you do not turn off the effect, the "

wet

"

playback sound is monitored with the effect
you set in rehearsal.
