Storing/Copying a Program

Once you have modified the Parameters and Effects to your liking, you can store them to a user Program location. When editing a Program,
the Store LED will light indicating that you have changed a Parameter and need to store the changes. The following steps outline the proce-
dure for storing a preset:
1. Press the Store button once and the first seven segment LED in the Display window will flash U. This is asking you to select a User Bank
and Program location that you want to store your sound to.
2. Select the User Bank and Program location using the Value Up and Down buttons.
3. Press the Store button again to save the changes.
The procedure for copying one program to another program location is almost the same. Simply use the Value Up and Down buttons to
select the Program that you want to copy, then follow the steps listed above.

Tuner Mode

Allows you to quickly tune or check the tuning on your guitar. Enter Tuner mode by pressing and holding the Bank Up footswitch. The
Display will briefly show tunr followed by ---- to indicate that you are in Tuner mode. To begin tuning, play a note on your guitar (a
harmonic at the 12th fret usually works best). The display window will show the note being played and the horizontal Parameter Matrix LEDs
will light. Once the green LED directly over the Gate effect column is lit, the note will be in tune. LEDs to the left of the green center LED
indicate the note is flat and should be tuned up. LEDs to the right indicate the note is sharp and should be tuned down.
In Tuner mode, you can change your tuning reference by using the Value Up and Down buttons. The default factory setting is : A=440 Hz.
The tuning reference control ranges from 427 Hz to 453 Hz, which is the equivalent of ± 50 cents (1/2 semitone) in either direction form
440 Hz. When you scroll down from 427 Hz, you will also find alternate dropped tunings. Alternate tunings are A = Ab (415), A = G (392),
and A = Gb (369). The display window will briefly flash the currently selected tuning preference.
Exit tuner mode by pressing any of the footswitches.

Learn-A-Lick Mode

The Learn-A-Lick function allows you to record a 12 second passage of music and play it back as slow as 1/4 speed with no change in pitch.
This is very useful for picking out the notes of a fast solo passage.
There are 6 functions for Learn-A-Lick. They are:
• Play / Stop
• Rewind
• Fast Forward
Using Learn-A-Lick
1. Connect the output of your CD or tape player headphone output to the Jam-A-Long input jack on the rear panel using an 1/8" stereo
connector. Set the level of the CD/tape player to a desired listening level.
2. Cue up to the passage you want to record and hit pause on the CD or tape player.
3. Press and hold the Bank Down Footswitch to enter Learn-A-Lick mode. The display will read: LaL.
4. Release the pause button on your playback device and press the number 4 (Record) Footswitch when you are ready to begin recording
the passage. The display will read: rEC and recording will begin. The vertical LEDs provide a time elapsed reference by lighting one
at a time while recording. When recording is completed, the phrase will be set to an auto-loop playback mode. Stop or press pause on
the CD or Tape player.
5. Pressing the Tempo Down Footswitch will slow the playback down to 1/4 speed in 1/8th speed intervals.
6. Pressing the Tempo Up Footswitch will increase the playback speed to normal speed at 1/8th speed intervals.
7. Pressing the Rewind Footswitch steps back through the loop at 1/2 second intervals.
8. Pressing the F Fwd Footswitch steps forward through the loop at 1/2 second intervals.
9. The Expression Pedal will control output level of the recorded phrase.
10. To record a new passage, press the Record Footswitch again.
11. To exit the Learn-A-Lick mode, press and hold the Bank Down Footswitch.
