6 SCENES & CHANNELS
CHANGING CHANNELS
Different areas of the Axe-Fx III provide different ways to change Channels:
On the GRID – Select the desired block and turn the Channel knob (
B
).
The current Channel is shown above the knob.
While EDITING a BLOCK – Use the dedicated CHANNEL - and C buttons.
The current channel is shown near the top center of every page in the Edit menu.
FC CONTROLLER – The FC Controllers offer a range of dedicated “Channel” functions.
MIDI – MIDI and other Global Controllers such as a connected external footswitch can be
used to select Channels. See
“Selecting Scenes & Channels Remotely” on p. 46
.
Of course, Axe-Edit can also be used to change channels.
SETTING UP CHANNELS
Whenever you edit a block, you are already programming at least one Channel (usually Channel A). Programming
additional channels is easy: simply select the desired channel as described above and use your usual methods to
set the various parameters to their new values. Repeat for each Channel in the block and then save the preset.
TO COPY A CHANNEL…
The Tools page of the Layout menu (“grid”) provides a utility to copy one Channel to another. This works within a
single block only; you can’t copy a Channel from one block to another, or from one preset to another.
1. Navigate to the Tools page of the Layout menu (grid).
2. Turn the
VALUE
wheel until “COPY CHANNEL” is shown on the display.
3. Use the
D
knob to select the scene you want to copy from. Channel letters are shown above the knobs.
4. Use the
E
knob to select the location you want to copy to.
5. Press
ENTER
or the on-screen EXECUTE button (Push-knob C) to complete the copy.
6. Test your preset and remember to STORE to make the changes permanent.
