6. Parameter Knobs
In performance mode, these 5 knobs select Amp Models, Speaker Cabinets, and Warp Models. In
Green or Red mode, they adjust the Amp Gain, EQ and Level of the selected amp channel. In Edit
mode, they adjust the parameters listed in the column directly below each knob for the selected
group of effects.
7. Display
The display shows the selected preset name and number. The display also shows bank names when
changing banks, and momentarily flashes the active amp channel when the amp channel is changed. In
Edit mode, the alpha-numeric display shows the selected effect’s parameter and value or status. In
Tuner mode, the numeric display shows the note played and the alpha-numeric display indicates
whether the note was sharp or flat. In Learn-A-Lick mode, the alpha-numeric display shows the
selected function and the numeric display provides an elapsed time for record and playback.
8. Data Wheel
The Data Wheel increases and decreases the selected preset. It increases and decreases the value or
status of the selected Utility or Rhythm function, and scrolls characters in the naming procedure.
9. Mode Buttons
The Exit button is only used to exit a function, while the other 5 buttons perform dual functions
dependent on the selected mode of operation. The buttons are labeled as follows:
MODE - This button changes the functionality of footswitches 1-5 to toggle individual effects in a
selected preset on and off and change amp channels. When the Mode button is lit yellow,
footswitches 1-5 toggle effects on and off and change amp channels. When the Mode
button is lit green, footswitches 1-5 select presets in the current preset bank. When the
Mode button is lit red, footswitches 1-5 control the GNX3’s recorder functions. This
button also selects the previous character when naming a preset, and the previous menu in
Utility mode. The Mode Down/Up footswitches functionality changes depending on the
status of the Mode button. (see Mode Footswitches section below).
EXIT - Exits all functions back to the preset display.
DRUMS - This button accesses the GNX3’s Drum Machine Functions. When the Drum button is
enabled, the LED lights and the drum loop begins playing. The bottom row of Mode
buttons are used in conjunction with the Data Wheel to select and edit the Pattern,
Tempo, and Level. This button also selects the next character when naming a preset, and
the next menu in Utility.
STORE - This button saves preset edits to the User presets, and selects a Pattern while the drum
machine is active.
UTILITY - This button accesses the GNX3’s global functions.
AMP SAVE - This button stores Amp and Cabinet changes (tone, gain, level, amp type, cabinet type,
warp, or cabinet tuning) as HyperModels™. It also selects the drum machine level
when the drum machine is active.
