EDITING EFFECT PARAMETERS

The effect programs of the GW10 can be easily “tweaked” or edited with the

convenient parameter dials.

CAUTION!

■

Be careful NOT to press the

M

Pedal Switch at

any time during editing.

Doing so will switch to the next preset and erase

all settings you had made to that point.

■

OPERATION

1

First, turn off all effect blocks (using the

Effect Block buttons; see page 24), except

for the one you wish to edit.

Doing this lets you clearly hear only the

effect you wish to edit.

NOTE

■

One possible exception to this

guideline is the Amp Simulator effect,

changes to which are easier to hear when

Distortion is also on.

■

2

Select the effect you wish to edit.

Use

B

to select the desired effect block,

then

T

to select the desired effect type.

(The LED of the selected effect will flash.)

3

While playing the connected instrument,

adjust the parameter dials.

The relevant

parameters are in the same row as the

flashing effect LED.

For example, if you

wish to edit the MID parameter of the

Equalizer effect, the EQ LED should be

flashing and you should adjust the middle

parameter dial.

NOTE

■

In some cases, undesirable feed-

back or noise may result if you adjust the

value of a parameter while playing your

guitar.

In general, adjust a parameter, then

play your guitar to hear the change in the

sound.

■

For information about each of the effects and

their parameters, refer to the section EF-

FECTS AND PARAMETERS on page 27.

HINT

■

In general, when editing an effect,

you should turn up the right parameter dial to

a relatively high setting before adjusting the

other two.

Doing this ensures that any changes you

make with the other dials will be fairly

noticeable.

This technique particularly

applies to effects whose third parameter is

Output or Mix, since these parameters

directly affect the level of the effect sound.

■

4

While editing, turn one or both of the other

effects back on to hear how the changes

you’ve made affect the overall sound.

If you

like, select those effects and edit them as

well.

5

You can also make changes to the Foot

Controller: selecting the controllable param-

eter or volume pedal position, and setting the

Minimum Volume.

(See pages 33 and 34.)

6

Write (save) the new settings to memory, if

desired.

(See SAVING AN EFFECT

PROGRAM on page 37 for details.)

Set this dial

relatively

high at first.
