The Grid
The grid, located on the EDIT page of the LAYOUT
menu, is a 12 × 4 matrix into which effect “blocks”
can be inserted and then connected together to build
presets. The INPUT appears at the left, the OUTPUT at the right. The display can fit a 5 × 4 section of the 12 × 4 grid
at any one time, with the ability to scroll to off-screen areas using the
NAV
buttons. A bottom scrollbar indicates
where you are in the overall left-to-right layout.
Figure 4-2 – In this image of an empty grid, off-screen areas are grayed.
Inserting and Removing Blocks
4.2.1
As explained in “The Concept” on page
6
, the Axe-Fx II grid must be populated with blocks—components pulled
from a large inventory of amps, cabs, stompbox, studio effects, mixers, and more. The insertion, modification, or
removal of blocks happens at the grid cursor, a filled rectangle controlled with the
NAV
buttons.
Figure 4-3
To INSERT a BLOCK into an empty space…
Use the
NAV
buttons to select the desired empty grid location.
Turn the
VALUE
wheel. Available block names (AMP 1, CAB 1, etc.) will be displayed on the screen in
alphabetical order, and the selected block (if visible) will flash.
When the desired item is found, press
ENTER
to insert it into the grid.
To cancel, press
EXIT
instead.
As detailed above in
The Inventory/Grid Concept
(p.
6
), every preset draws from its own complete inventory of
available blocks. As you place them on to the grid, they are removed from the inventory.
