REATING YOUR OWN SOUNDS
1. Press the top panel MANUAL button.
The MANUAL LED will light which means you’re in Manual mode.
HINT: You can also create your own sounds in Preset mode or Channel Select mode.
However, the process is a bit easier to understand in Manual mode, since the positions of
all knobs (except the EDIT 1 knob) are exactly what you’re hearing. In other words, what
you see is what you get!
2. Use the STYLE selector switch to select a style, and adjust the GAIN, VOL-
UME, TREBLE, MIDDLE, and BASS.
3. If you want to use an effect, use the EFFECTS selector to select an effect
type, and use the EDIT 1 knob to adjust the depth of the effect. For modula-
tion-type effects like CHORUS or TREMOLO, or the DELAY/REVERB effect,
just press the TAP button twice to set the modulation speed or the delay/
reverb time to the corresponding interval — it doesn’t get much easier than
that!
If you don’t want to use an effect, press the BYPASS button. You can edit more
effect parameters but you’ll have to read the manual to find out how.
4. When you’ve come up with a sound you like, write it as described in “Stor-
ing your program” (page 15).
