[. . . ] Do not use liquid cleaners such as benzene or thinner, or cleaning compounds or flammable polishes. Keep this manual After reading this manual, please keep it for later reference. Keeping foreign matter out of your equipment Never set any container with liquid in it near this equipment. If liquid gets into the equipment, it could cause a breakdown, fire, or electrical shock. If something does slip into the equipment, unplug the AC adapter from the wall outlet. Then contact your nearest Korg dealer or the store where the equipment was purchased. [. . . ] The wah is connected after the DRIVE/AMP model. HINT: When you select WAH, the expression pedal is automatically assigned to "MANUAL. " 5. U-VIBE/PHASE (VIB/PHAS) This lets you select one of three models; a famous phase/vibrato effect with a pedal, a wide-range four-stage phaser that was made in Denmark and packaged in a black box, and a popular four-stage phaser that came in a banana-colored box. [1] "DEPTH" [2] "SPEED" [3] "MANUAL" 0. 0­10. 0 0. 1­10. 0 [Hz] 1. 0­10. 0 * Adjusts the vibrato/modulation depth. The effect is connected after the DRIVE/ AMP model. [4] "TYPE" U-1: U-2: Or: bL: [5] "ORDER" PrE(PRE): PoS(POST): HINT: If you assign the Speed to be controlled by the expression pedal, you'll be able to control the vibrato speed just as on the original phase/vibrato unit with pedal that's being modeled. 28 6. CHORUS/FLANGER (CHO/FLNG) This is a chorus/flanger unit with a standard circuit structure. [1] "DEPTH" [2] "SPEED" [3] "MANUAL" 0. 0­10. 0 0. 1­10. 0 [Hz] 1. 0­10. 0 * Adjusts the modulation depth. * Adjusts the amount of resonance. [4] "RESO" 0. 0­10. 0 7. OCTAVE This models a pedal that generates a pitch one octave below the original input, mixing it with the original sound to add thickness. [4] "DIRECT" [5] "EFFECT" 0. 0­10. 0 0. 0­10. 0 * Adjusts the mix level of the original sound. * Adjusts the mix level of the note one octave below. HINT: This type of effect only works with single notes; chords will confuse it. 8. RING MOD This is a ring modulator; an effect that uses an oscillator to generate a sine wave which is then multiplied with the signal from your bass to produce new harmonics. If you set the FLN TRIG: CONTROL switch setting to "FLN TRIG, " the LFO will be reset to the position specified by OFFSET whenever you operate the switch. It provides two chorus units, CHORUS 1 and CHORUS 2, and lets you connect the two units not only in series or in parallel, but also to synchronize or de-synchronize the two LFOs. It produces a variety of tones that cover a range from wonderfully spacious sounds to bizarre flanger-like sounds with complex modulation. [1] "DEPTH" 0. 0­10. 0 [2] "SPEED 1" 0. 1­10. 0[Hz] [3] "SPEED 2" 0. 1­10. 0[Hz] * Adjusts the modulation depth of CHORUS 1/2. * Adjusts the modulation speed of CHORUS 2. NOTE: This will not function if MODE is set to P2 or P3. [5] "MODE" S: P1: P2: 31 REVERB DELAY [4] "RESO" 0. 0­10. 0 * Adjusts the amount of resonance for CHORUS 1/2. CHORUS 1/2 are connected in parallel, and their LFOs are synchronized. MODULATION PRE EFFECT CABINET DRIVE/AMP Effect Type [4] "RESO" 0. 0­10. 0 [5] "MIX" 0. 0­10. 0 CONTROL switch FLN TRIG Tuner P3: CHORUS 1/2 are connected in parallel, and their LFOs are synchronized in opposite phase (Stereo mode). NOTE: If P2 or P3 is selected, the speed is adjusted by the SPEED 1 (value knob 2). 5. DUO PHASE (DUO PHAS) This is an amazing phaser that provides two six-stage phasers; PHASER 1 and PHASER 2. They can be connected in series (to make a pseudo-twelve-stage phaser!) or in parallel, and you can also synchronize or de-synchronize the two LFOs. [1] "DEPTH" 0. 0­10. 0 [2] "SPEED 1" 0. 1­10. 0[Hz] [3] "SPEED 2" 0. 1­10. 0[Hz] * Adjusts the modulation depth of PHASER 1/2. * Adjusts the modulation speed of PHASER 2. NOTE: This will not function if MODE is set to S2, P2, or P3. [4] "RESO" [5] "MODE" 0. 0­10. 0 S1: S2: P1: P2: P3: * Adjusts the amount of resonance for PHASER 1/2. PHASER 1/2 are connected in series and their LFOs are synchronized to create a pseudo-twelve-stage phaser. [. . . ] If you received data for a single program, select the save-destination bank and program, and save the data. (p. 19) NOTE: The program data will not be written into the AX3B's program memory unless you store it. HINT: If the AX3B receives all data, all of its data will be overwritten automatically. However, the data currently being edited (i. e. , the edit buffer) will not be affected. 54 Restoring the Factory Preset Programs H ere's how you can restore the AX3B's programs and settings to the state in which it was shipped from the factory. NOTE: Executing this procedure will erase all the programs you created and saved in the AX3B, and will load the factory-set programs. [. . . ]
