Using the built-in mic
The PFX-9003 has a built-in high-sensitivity microphone. You can use the mic to
pick up the sound of an acoustic guitar or vocal, and use effect processing on that
sound in the same way you would use the [INPUT] jack.
When one of the following three conditions is met, the built-in mic can be
used and the mic symbol appears on the display.
(1) DRIVE module is ON, and the MIC PRE or CABI effect type is selected
(2) DRIVE module is OFF
(3) Tuner mode is active
1.
To use the built-in mic, verify that the Mic symbol is shown on
the display, and press the [MIC] key.
The [MIC] key flashes and the signal from the [INPUT] jack is cut off. If the
Mic symbol is not being shown, pressing the [MIC] key has no effect.
2.
If the gain of the built-in mic is low, press the [MIC] key once more.
The [MIC] key is now constantly lit. There are two gain settings (Hi/Lo) for
the built-in mic. The first push of the [MIC] key activates the Lo setting (key
flashing), and the second push changes to the Hi setting (key lit).
3.
To turn the built-in mic off, press the [MIC] key once more when
the Hi gain setting is active.
The [MIC] key goes out, and the built-in mic is turned off.
Using the rhythm function
In play mode, you can select from 60 rhythm patterns. This is useful for solo
practice or for simple jam sessions.
