BASIC PROGRAMMING
Most of the programming in the G3 Atom is done via the top panel.
Everything is laid out in a simple, logical order to keep the experience as intuitive as possible.
4.1 PRE-SET PROGRAMMING
Presets are at the heart of the Atom
’s
functionality. Whether you are controlling MIDI or adding Stompbox
Mode, it all happens within a preset.
a.
Select the preset that you want to programme using the footswitches on the G3 Atom.
b.
Add loops and functions to that preset using the corresponding push buttons along the centre of the G3
Atom (ie: TUNER/AUX, FX loops 1-6). Your preset is now stored.
c.
Repeat for each footswitch, as necessary.
d.
You can now switch between your programmed presets.
There are 8 standard pre-sets plus up to 8 hidden presets in each of G3
Atom’
s 99 banks.
4.2 STOMP BOX MODE
STOMPBOX MODE allows you to add any function or loop(s) on top of a G3 Atom preset.
(In DEEP EDIT mode you can choose between 3 different types of STOMPBOX MODE
–
STANDARD,
STICKY and FLASH.
To programme a STOMPBOX MODE enabled preset:
a.
Select the preset that you want to programme using the footswitches on G3 Atom.
b.
Add the loops/functions you wish to add to this preset. These loops/functions will be disengaged when
the footswitch is pressed a second time. NOTE - this means if both Outputs are included in that
Stompbox Mode preset, pressing this footswitch a second time will result in no sound, so it
’
s important
to ONLY include the loops and functions you want to add/subtract on top of a standard preset.
