Creating your own sounds
Creating a sound
There are two ways to create your own sound: you can start
with a program that’s similar to what you have in mind and
then edit the parameters as desired, or you can create a pro ‐
gram from scratch.
Here we’ll explain how to create a program from scratch.
1.
Turn off the cabinet model and effect types.
If the CABINET, PEDAL 1, PEDAL 2, MODULATION,
and DELAY LEDs are lit, press corresponding switches to
turn them off. Set the REVERB knob to the off position.
2.
Press the AMPS bank select switch to select a bank, and
use the AMPS/STAND ALONE PEDALS selector to
select an amp model.
Each time you press the AMPS bank switch, the bank will
cycle through STANDARD, SPECIAL, CUSTOM, STAN ‐
DARD...
For details on the amp models, refer to “Amp models” (p. 15).
3.
Use the GAIN, TREBLE, MIDDLE, BASS, and VOLUME
controls to adjust the tone and volume.
The GAIN control adjusts the gain.
The TREBLE, MIDDLE, and BASS controls adjust the high,
mid, and low ‐ frequency tone.
The VOLUME control adjusts the volume.
HINT:
The sound might be distorted in an undesirable way
depending on the settings of the TREBLE, MIDDLE,
or BASS controls, or depending on other settings. If
so, adjust the VOLUME control to an appropriate
volume.
4.
If desired, select a cabinet model and adjust the high ‐ fre ‐
quency tone.
To turn the cabinet model on
Press the CABINET on/off switch. The LED will light.
To change the cabinet mode
Hold down the CABINET on/off switch for about one sec ‐
ond to enter OPTION parameter setting mode (the CABI ‐
NET on/off switch LED will blink). Then turn the GAIN
control.
For details on the cabinet models, refer to “Cabinet mod ‐
els” (p. 20).
