All AX-ZONE INVALID PEDAL 2-2. Basic operation of the AX300G Chapter 2. Connections and basic operat! @Turn the power on \When you finish making connections, connect the AC ‘adaptor, As shown in the following diagram, loop the ‘AC adaptor cable around the cable hook to keep it from being pulled out accidentally The AX300G has no power switch. When the AC adaptor is connected, A11 (User Program A no.11) will be selected, and operation will begin. Note: Before connecting or disconnecting the AX300G's AC adaptor, be sure to loner the volume controls of all connected equipment. @ Adjust the input level Play the guitar connected to the AX300G, and adjust the input level so that the peak indicator lights when you play a chord most strongly. If the input level is too high or too low, the AX300G will not operate correctly, ‘and you will not get the desired eound effects. Note: Some effect value settings can cause distortion (clipping) even when the peak indicator does not light. In such cases, check whether the Level and Gain parameters of the effect are not set excessively high. @ Adjust the output level Use the output level knob to adjust tre volume you hear from the amplifier. If you hear no sound from the: amplifier, check the connections once again. If you hear sound in the headphones, the problem is located after the output of the AX300G. @oO @ Select a program (~p7, 6) The AX300G has 32 User programs and 100 Preset programs. Here we will explain how to select User programs. For detals of how to select Preset programs, refer to p.8 @ User Programs A or B selection Press the User A/B key to select User Programs A or B. (User Programs A are selected when the Bank Note display LED Is dark, and user programe B are selected when its it) © Press the Bank switch. When the Bank/Note isplay shows a blinking *~ °, use Program switches [1] — [4] to select the bank. (The selected bank number wil blink Inthe Bark/Note display.) © Use the Program switches [1] ~ [4] to select a program.

Tuner calibration Chapter 4. Edit mode The tuning of an instrument is expressed as the pitch of the middle A note on a piano (e.g., A=440 Hz). The ‘AX300G allows you to set the Ad standard pitch in the range of 438 — 445 Hz. The process of adjusting the standard pitch is referred to as “calibration.” ‘The calibration setting you make here will affect only the Tuning operation («7 p.11). © Prove the Euivxit key o enter Edt mode, and the edit menu display will appear @ Use the dia to select the Calibration cispay.

IPE (Integrated Parameter Edit) ‘Acertain amount of experience is needed if you wish to adjust individual parameters for each effect parameter in Edit mode. However the IPE function allows you to quickly and easily create a desired sound by putting together desired effects using the [DRIVE], [TONE], [MOD] and [AMBIENCE] IPE keys and the dial, (The IPE function of the AX300G allows you to select 375 variations from 24 types of effect.) In Play mode or Edit mode, press an IPE key. The Upper line of the LOD display will show the selected IPE name, and the lower line will show the effect ame.
