Hall
This reverb effect simulates the acoustics of a concert hall. Higher right-digit settings increase the mixing
ratio of the effect sound.
R 1
R 9
Room
This reverb effect simulates the acoustics of a room. Higher right-digit settings increase the mixing ratio of
the effect sound.

Spring
This effect simulates a spring-type reverb. Higher right-digit settings increase the mixing ratio of the effect
sound.

A 9
Arena
This reverb effect simulates the acoustics of a large venue such as a sports arena. Higher right-digit settings
increase the mixing ratio of the effect sound.
T 1
T 9
Tiled Room
This reverb effect simulates the acoustics of a tiled room. Higher right-digit settings increase the mixing ratio
of the effect sound.
DECAY (Prm2)

types.

3 0
Decay
Adjusts the decay duration.
Troubleshooting
• No power
Refer to "Turn power on" on page 6.
• Reverb effect does not operate
While a rhythm pattern is playing, the reverb
effect is not available. Stop the rhythm pattern
first (
g
p. 10).
• Delay effect does not operate
While the looping function is being used, the
delay effect is not available. Stop the looping
function first (
g
p. 12).
• Patch switching does not change the
sound
Is the patch selection method of the G1u set to
"pre-select" (
g
p. 18)? Turn power off and then
on again to return to normal operation.
• High level of noise
Is ZOOM AC adapter being used? Be sure to use
only an adapter for 9 V DC, 300 mA with center
minus plug (ZOOM AD-0006).
• Battery life is short
Are manganese batteries being used? Continuous
operation time is about 10 hours with alkaline
batteries.
