This section explains all the Zoom Player 3030

s
effect types and parameters. However, parameters
that are the same for other effect types are only
explained in brief.
Parameter names marked with
★
can be controlled
with the EXP/VOL pedal.
The compressor maintains the volume at a given level
without impairing the sense of tone and attack.
Parameter 1
Sens
1 – 8
Parameter 2
Attack
0 – 5
Parameter 3
Tone
0 – 10
Parameter 4
Mode
1 – 2
Parameter 5
Patch Level
0 – 50
Explanation:
(1) Sens
Determines the compressor depth. Higher values result in
a more uniform level, for a merged sound.
(2) Attack
This sets the time that it takes from when the guitar plays
the attack until the compressor effect starts. The smaller
the value, the faster it starts.
(3) Tone
Adjusts the tone. Higher values accentuate the top range
to produce bright tones, and lower values accentuate the
low range to produce heavy tones.
(4) Mode
The tone of the compressor module can be selected from
two modes.
1: Normal tone compressor
2: Bright tone compressor, with the low range cut
(5) Patch Level
Determines the output level for each patch. The final
adjustments to the differences in patch volumes are done
with this function. This parameter is always in effect,
regardless of the ON/OFF status of the compressor
module.
When the effect modules are all OFF and the value is
"40", the volume is the same as with Bypass.
This module includes a parametric equalizer for directly
altering the tonal quality, and a wah effect.
Parameter 1
Type
1 – 3
Explanation
(1) Type
Used to select the effect type. (The contents of
Parameters 2-5 vary according to the effect type.)
1: EQ 1
2: PEDAL WAH
3: AUTO WAH
The one-band parametric equalizer generates boost/cut for
the central frequency, which can be set freely. Q is also
furnished, enabling direct sound processing.
Parameter 2
Freq
1 – 4
Parameter 3
Gain
-3 – +3
Parameter 4
Q
1 – 2
Parameter 5
Position
0 – 1
Explanation
(2) Freq (Frequency)
Determines the frequency of the boost/cut.
(3) Gain
Determines the amount of the boost/cut. The larger the
value, the stronger the boost, and the smaller the value,
the stronger the cut.
(4) Q
Determines the frequency set in Parameter 2 as the
central width of the frequency band for boost/cut. For
"1", the boost and cut in the broad frequency ranges is
smooth; for "2", boost and cut are performed partially for
the narrow frequency ranges..
(5) Position
Determines whether the EQ1 comes before or after the
distortion module.
0: Before distortion module
1: After distortion module
1: EQ1 (Parametric Equalizer)
Effect Module 2:
EQ1/WAH (Equalizer 1/Wah)
Effect Module 1:
COMP (Compressor)
