Effect Types and Parameters

In this section, all effect types and parameters of the modules in the GFX-3 are explained. As shown in the
illustration, the GFX-3 has eight effect modules which can be thought of as being connected in series. It is
possible to use all effect modules together, or to switch individual modules on and off. Nearly all modules
incorporate several effect types, of which one can be selected at a time.

The effect types and parameters that can be used in each module are listed below. The pedal symbol (

)

indicates that the parameter can be assigned to the expression pedal in real time (

p. 15).

ZNR/[TOTAL] module

This module serves for adjusting ZNR (ZOOM Noise Reduction), patch level, and other parameters that are common to
all patches.

COMP/ISO (Compressor/Isolator) module

The compressor serves to reduce excessive signal levels. The isolator allows cutting or emphasizing a particular band.

Parameter 1

ZNR/D GATE

Parameter 2

PATCH LEVEL

oF, Z1 – Z8, G1 – G8

1 – 30

Adjusts ZNR/noise gate sensitivity. With the Z1 - Z8 settings, ZNR is
enabled. With the G1 - G8 settings, noise gate is enabled. Set the value
for maximum noise reduction (higher settings) without producing
unnatural sound cutoff.

Adjusts the final patch output level.

Parameter 3

MASTER LEVEL

Parameter 4

ENERGIZE

0 – 30

oF, 1 – 30

Adjusts the master level for all patches.

Controls the Energizer setting that applies to all patches. Lower values
result in stronger emphasis on treble, and higher values result in
stronger emphasis on bass. The "oF" setting disables the Energizer.

Parameter 1

COMP/ISO

Parameter 2

ATTACK/HIGH

CO, IS

ATTACK (CO)

HIGH (IS)

FS, SL

oF, -12 – 12

Select the effect by choosing CO (Compressor) or IS (Isolator). The
effect of parameters 2 - 4 differs, depending on which setting is chosen
here.

The time lag between signal input
and start of compressor action can
be set to FS (FAST) or SL
(SLOW).

Adjusts high-range mix.
