Effect banks
The.GA-30CD.has.2.banks.(A.and.B).to.store.effects.
and.reverb.settings..
Bank.settings.are.stored.in.built-in.memory.each.time.a.
parameter.is.adjusted.or.the.bank.is.changed..
When.the.unit.is.new,.the.A.bank.is.set.to. CHORUS .
and.the.B.bank.is.set.to. DELAY ..If.you.use.the. FXRS .
item..in.the.Setup.menu,.these.effects.and.their.settings.
will.be.reset..(See.“Initializing.effect.banks”.on.page.19.
for.details.)
Choosing the output
Use.the.bank.selection.key.to.change.between.banks.
A.and.B..You.can.recall.different.types.of.effects.by.
switching.banks..
The.indicator.lights.next.to.the.active.bank.(A.or.B).
The.effect.settings.made.with.the.knobs.are.
automatically.saved.to.the.active.bank,.so.no.special.
operation.is.necessary.to.save.your.changes..
The.effect.settings.of.a.bank.match.the.previously.saved.
state.when.recalled,.so.the.knob.positions.may.not.show.
the.current.parameter.values..In.such.cases,.moving.a.
knob.will.immediately.cause.the.knob.setting.to.effect.
the.parameter.
NOTE
When a bank is recalled, the indicator will show the
selected bank, but the position of the effect knobs
( 1 , 2 and LEVEL ) will not change, therefore they
will not match the bank settings. Move any knob to
change the associated parameter value to the knob’s
current position.
