There are two ways you can do this; by “tweaking an existing program” or by “start-
ing from scratch.”

ROGRAM

If you want to tweak an existing program, select one that’s close to the sound you
want. Set the CATEGORY select switches to the amp, cabinet and effects you
want to use, and use value knobs 1–5 to adjust the sound.
For example, you might start with an old-style bass sound that has rich mid- and
low-frequencies, and create a more contemporary "scooped" bass sound by low-
ering the mids and boosting the highs.

Now here’s how to create your own program from scratch.

NOTE: Before you proceed, you must first perform the setup procedure described
on

p.12

to correctly specify the type of equipment to which your AX3000B is con-

nected.

1. Select any program (p.15).

HINT: It doesn’t matter which program you select, because we’re starting from
scratch.

2. In the PRE FX, MODULATION, DELAY, or REVERB section, press all category

select switches that are lit two times. This will turn off (bypass) all effects
except the amp and cabinet models.

3. Use the DRIVE/AMP selector to select the drive/amp model you want to use.

4. Use value knobs 1–5 to adjust the parameters of the drive/amp model as

desired.

HINT: Adjust the VOLUME so that there’s not too much difference in volume when
the drive/amp model is switched on/off. If VOLUME is raised excessively, distortion
may occur in the effects located after drive/amp.

5. When you choose an amp model, the appropriate cabinet model will be

selected automatically. If you want to use the cabinet model (for example if the
AX3000B is connected to a mixer or recorder), press the CABINET button to
turn it on. If you use the cabinet model, make sure to choose the correct Out-
