GFX-3 - 5000-1

 

 

No sound, or very low volume 

 

• Is the power switch set to ON? 
• Are [INPUT] jack and [PHONES/OUTPUT] jack 

connected correctly to instrument and 
amplifier? 

• Is the shielded cable defective? 
• Is the GFX-3 set to the mute condition? 
• Is the master level parameter set to a low 

value? 

• Is the expression pedal pushed down? 

 

For some patches, the expression pedal controls the
volume. Set it to a suitable position. 

 

 

 

 

Sound is unnaturally distorted 

 

• Adjust level and GAIN parameters of effect 

modules. 

• Set COMP/ ISO module to OFF. 

 

When a guitar with high output is used with these
effects, unwanted distortion may occur depending

on the DRIVE module setting. 

 

 

High noise levels 

 

• Adjust ZNR parameter. If problem persists, try 

reducing GAIN. 
If BOOSTER or COMP/ ISO module is used, 
try decreasing GAIN parameter of DRIVE 
module. 

 

 

Expression pedal on/off switching does 
not work properly. 

 

• Try the procedure described in "Calibrating the 

Expression Pedal" on page 16. 

 

 

Bypassed sound is unnatural

 

• The Energize works also in the bypass 

condition.

 

Set the Energize to "oF."
