Introduction - Zoom Player 3000B Operation Manual

Thank you for selecting the ZOOM PLAYER 3000B (hereafter simply called the "3000B").
The 3000B is a bass multi-effect device with the following features:
• 45 built in effects types covering a wide range. Up to 9 effects can be combined in
a patch, letting you easily create your own sound.
• Many special effects designed to enhance a bass guitar performance. DEFRET
makes a normal bass sound like a fretless bass. SLAP achieves slapping sound
from 2-finger playing.
• Built-in bass synthesizer detects bass pitch and controls a sound source to generate
unison phrases and harmonic voices. Unusual auto effects such as TRILL and
SWEEP are also available.
• Hold delay function is separate from individual effects and can store and repeat
phrases of up to 6 seconds duration. The delay time can be conveniently set by
tapping a foot switch.
• User-definable FUNCTION switch operates as a bypass or mute switch and can
also be used as real-time controller, for example to vary effect parameters or
volume during a performance.
• Connecting the optional remote pedal RP01 provides an even more powerful range
of real-time controller functions. Use as pedal wah or pedal pitch shifter is also
possible.
• Input sensitivity and tone can be adjusted to match the instrument characteristics
and the playing venue.
• Built-in metronome function and auto-chromatic tuner enhance practice sessions.
Please take the time to read this manual carefully, so as to get the most
out of your 3000B and to ensure optimum performance and reliability.
