Using The Easy Edit Function - Zoom 708II Bass Operation Manual

Using the Easy Edit Function

The 708II incorporates a function called "Easy Edit" that allows adjusting some effect
parameters during play. This is done with the parameter knobs 1 – 3, the [DRIVE VARIATION]
key, and the [DRIVE] knob on the front panel.
1.
To change the sound of a patch in
play mode, operate parameter knobs
1 – 3.
The parameters controlled by the knobs are as
follows.
Parameter knob 1
Adjusts a major
parameter of the
DRIVE module (such
as gain and compressor
sensitivity).
Parameter knob 2
Adjusts a major parameter of the MOD
module (such as chorus depth).
Adjusts a major parameter of the REV module
(such as delay or reverb amount).
The actual parameter controlled by parameter
knobs 1 – 3 depends on the effect selected for
the current effect module.
When a knob is turned, the current setting of the
relevant parameter is shown on the
BANK/PATCH indicator, and a dot (.) appears
at the "EDITED" position. This indicates that
the parameter has been changed. If the
parameter is returned to the original setting, the
dot disappears.

When a dot (.) is shown
here, the effect
parameter has been
changed.
2.
Use the [DRIVE] knob and [DRIVE
VARIATION] key to select the effect to
be used for the DRIVE module.
The DRIVE module contains effects that
duplicate the sound of famous bass amplifiers as
well as other often used effects for bass guitars.
The effects of the DRIVE module can be
directly selected with the [DRIVE] knob and
[DRIVE VARIATION] key.
The [DRIVE] knob selects the general category
(amp type or effect type), and the [DRIVE
VARIATION] key selects one of several
variations for that effect. Each push of the
[DRIVE VARIATION] key cycles through the
CLASSIC → STANDARD → MODERN
settings, and the corresponding LED lights up.

Note that if another patch is called up without
storing the edited patch, the edited contents will
be lost.
