GX-60D Amplifier
THE DSP SECTION:
You can program six different effects into your GX-60D:
two for the Channel B and four for Channel A. Follow
these simple instructions to program the presets:
PROGRAMMING A PRESET:
1. Select Channel B (the green led will be lit).
2. Turn the Chorus/Expander OFF (button OUT).
3. Turn the DSP Mode knob to the desired effect.
4. You have just stored the effect for Channel B with
Chorus/Expander OFF. You can change the preset any
time by returning to this same channel and Chorus
selection and turning the Mode knob. The new effect
will be stored at this setting until you change it again.
•Every time you select Channel B with the
Chorus/Expander “OFF” the amp recalls this effect. The
“DSP Level” control sets the effect level.
PROGRAMMING THE OTHER PRESETS:
1. Select Channel B (the green led will be lit).
2. Turn the Chorus/Expander ON (button IN)
3. Turn the DSP Mode knob to the desired effect.
4. Repeat for Channel A with the Shape and
Chorus/Expander OFF, Shape and Chorus/Expander
ON, Shape ON and Chorus/Expander OFF, Shape OFF
and Chorus/Expander ON. You can change any of the
presets any time by turning the Mode knob. The new
effects will be stored at each amp setting until you
change it again.
•Every time you select one of the amp’s modes
(Channel A, Shape and Chorus/Expander OFF, for
example) the amp recalls the effect set for that mode.
The “DSP Level” control sets the effect level.
