Quick Start
Before you make connections with any external
devices, turn all volumes to the minimum position
and turn off the power.
1.
If you will be powering the AX10A with batteries,
open the battery compartment located on the
bottom panel, and install four AA alkaline
batteries (sold separately). If you will be powering
the AX10A with the separately sold AC adaptor,
connect the AC adaptor to the rear panel DC9V
connector (the power will turn on).
2.
Set the INPUT L/H switch to the appropriate
position for the output of your guitar. Use the “H”
position if your guitar has a high output pickup, or
the “L” position if your guitar has a low output
pickup.
3.
Connect your guitar to the AX10A’s INPUT jack. If
you are using batteries, the power of the AX10A
will turn on at this point.
4.
If you’re connecting the AX10A to a PA system or
guitar amp, set the AMP/LINE switch to “AMP”. If
you’re connecting it to headphones, mixer or a
recorder, set this switch to “LINE”.
5.
Connect the AX10A’s OUTPUT jack to the INPUT
of your guitar amp or recorder. If you want to use
headphones, connect them to the OUTPUT jack.
6.
Turn on the power of the connected equipment,
and raise the volume to an appropriate level. You
can also use the AX10A’s MASTER buttons to
adjust the volume.
7.
Press the program select switches to change
programs.
TIPS
The AX10A has 40 preset programs (01–94) and 40
user programs (0.1–9.4). With the factory
settings, the user programs contain the
same contents as the preset programs.
8.
You can control the pedal effect by using the
expression pedal. The pedal is active when the
PEDAL LED at the upper left of the pedal is lit. If
this LED is dark, advance the pedal all the way
forward to make the LED light. Now the pedal will
be active.
Editing a Sound
9.
Turn the MIC & BODY selector to select your
desired sound, and use the DEPTH buttons to
adjust the depth. Use the tone control knobs to
adjust the tone and volume. If acoustic feedback
occurs, you can turn the NOTCH selector to
suppress the frequency at which feedback tends
to occur.
Editing and Effect
10.
Adjust the chorus or ambience effect as desired.
Use the AMB (CHORUS) buttons to adjust the
depth of the ambience effect. By holding down
the FUNCTION button while pressing the AMB
(CHORUS) buttons you can adjust the depth of
the chorus effect. With a setting of “00” there will
be no effect. The delay/reverb time of the
ambience effect can be adjusted by pressing the
TAP button at the desired timing interval.
11.
To adjust the pre-effect located in front of Mic &
Body, press the PRE FX button to select an
effect, and use the VALUE buttons to adjust it.
