Mix (Input/Playback) Knob (16)
This knob is used when recording into a multi-track recording application or DAW via USB. It is a ratio control you can use to balance
how much input signal you hear versus how much playback signal you hear from the DAW. When you are overdubbing tracks, you’ll
need to hear previously recorded tracks or a click track to play along with as well as your input signal. Adjust this control to fit your
needs. When you are mixing down a song, this knob should be turned all the way to the right as you will not need to hear any input
signals while mixing.
Output Level (15)
This controls the overall volume to the Main Outputs as well as the headphones.
Guitar Input Control (14)
The Guitar Input knob boosts the level of the guitar input signal. The green Signal LED (19) will light when a detectable threshold
input level is reached. The red Clip LED (18) will light if the input signal is too hot. The best input signal level is achieved when the
green LED is solid and the red LED only blinks occasionally.
Presets and Drumbeats
Presets
A preset is a unique combination of all the settings that affect the guitar sound, including guitar amp models, effects, delay, reverb and
compression. There are 100 fixed factory presets (0-99) and 100 editable user presets (0-99). To change between presets, press the
Preset Increment (27) and Preset Decrement (29) keys. The 100 user presets follow the 100 factory presets. The active preset number
and six-character name will always appear after a preset is selected.
To edit the settings that comprise a preset, you’ll use the Amp, FX, Delay and Utility buttons. When one of these buttons is pressed,
the lower part of the display will show four names. These are the functions of the four rotary controls below the display. For example,
when you press Amp, the four rotary controls will have the functions AMP, DRIVE, AMP BASS and AMP TREBLE.
Drumbeats
There are 100 fixed drumbeats numbered 0 to 99. To view the current drumbeat number and name for three seconds, press either
Drumbeat Increment, Drumbeat Decrement or both. Press Drumbeat Increment (23) during this time to go to the next higher
drumbeat; press Drumbeat Decrement (25) during this time to go to the previous lower drumbeat. Hold Drumbeat Increment
to rapidly and repeatedly increment the drumbeat number; hold Drumbeat Decrement to rapidly and repeatedly decrement the
drumbeat number.
