Following is a description of the effects shown inthe "effect area" of the liquid crystal display (refer to page 7). Additionally, there are a number of controls (equivalent to compact effect knobs) for adjusting the sound qualities, or parameters, for each effect. These effects are connected in the ME-30 in the most generally used sequence.

For example, by aiding portions an octave higher, you can get a sound lke tat ofa 12-string. or you can turn a single note into a chord to make a twin lead. You can create a "detuned chorus" by adding tothe source sound partons that have been slightly pitch-shfted, resulting in a chorus that imparts a diferent sense of breadth than you get with just the regular chorus.

You can assign a diferent effect to each patch (eee page 17) Depending on the effect selected, you can futher select one of two internal connection settings, (A:COMPRESSOR-OD/DS, OR BINOISE SUP-DELAY — see accompanying figure). The nuance of the effect changes with the position selected. one ae ey wen eo eoreete le You can check which effect is currently selected by viewing the display’s pedal area (see p. 7) NOLUME EEDAr This adjusts the volume. Raising te toe of the pedal reduces the volume, and pressing it down increases the volume.

When setting your overall volume, or when using the volume ‘or effect, B: isthe preferred position. By moving the pedal a certain way, you can get an effect where the guitar makes @ wah walt" sound, Raising the toe end of the ppedal produces an "oo" sound; pressing it down makes it sound lke *wa.” ‘When used along with distortion (OD/DS}, you get an ordinary type of elect with the pedal in the A: position; withthe pedal in the B: postion, the effect becomes stronger, more emphasized, While playing, you can switch the wah effect on and off by strongly pressing on the toe ofthe expression ped Strongly pressing Eo 5‘This simulates the arm up" and "arm down’ effect of @ rerolo arm, changing the pitch ofthe guitar input sound.

Mixes the sound of ARM 1 withthe orignal input sound Mixes the sound of ARM 2 withthe original input sound. RING MODULATOR (RING MOD) ‘This fect modifies the sound through an interaction between the ME-30's intemal oscillator and the sound input from the guar, producing a metallic reverberation with the distinction between notes blurred. With the tip of the pedal al the way up, you get ony the direct input sound, with no effect pressing down on the pedal abit adds a lite effect; pressing down on the pedal even ‘moce changes the frequency generated by the intemal oscillator, allowing you to create a distinctive, wavering sound. When used along with distortion, playing withthe selector in the A: position produces @ more extreme sound than with the selector in the B: postion, In addition tothe above effects, the ME-30 features a built-in guitar amp simulator. GUITAR AMP SIMULATOR ME-30 Wiiiceran ‘This effec simulates the defining characteristics of a guitar amp's sound. Turn this on at times such as when you are using headphones or recording direc to tape. Conversely, when you connect toa gultar amp on stage o in the studio, be sure to switch this effect off 16About Patches When you are actually playing your guitar ina performance, you need to use the sounds that ft what you are playing. The effects and parameters you'll want to have switched on, as well a the effect you will want to use with the expression pedal will vary from sound to sound. With the ME-30, you can make settings for these parameters beforehané—includ- ing effec settings and volurne levels—then insanty change sounds using the pedals. These collections of stored settings are grouped into what are called *patches." The ME-30's ‘memory holds sixty of these patches. Thiny are in Preset ‘memory, and their contents cannot be rewritten. The other ‘thiny are in User memory, where you can freely rewrite their Contents to create whatever sounds you like Both the Preset and User areas are further divided into ten ‘banks, with three patches in each, * When shipped from the factory, the User Memories are set to the same settings asthe Preset Memories.
