Using the expression pedal to
control parameters
E
XPRESSION PEDAL SETTINGS
The AX3000G provides a built-in expression pedal that you can use to control not
only wah or volume, but a wide variety of effect parameters. For each program,
you can specify which effect will be controlled, and how. The effect to which the
expression pedal is assigned can be switched on/off by advancing the expression
pedal all the way forward to operate the switch located under the pedal. The
expression pedal LED will be lit or dark to indicate the on/off status of the effect.
NOTE: If you're using the expression pedal as a volume pedal, the LED will light
amber. In this case, the switch located under the pedal has no effect. If you're using
the expression pedal to control another parameter, the LED will light green.
HINT: If you've assigned a parameter to the expression pedal, operating the pedal
has the same result as using the knob to edit the program. This means that when
you operate the pedal, the EDIT icon will light. When you write the program, it will
be written with the sound as currently specified by the position of the pedal. How-
ever if the expression target is "--OFF--," "VOLUME," "M/PITCH," "D/INPUT," or "R/
INPUT," the program will not be edited by the pedal.

XPRESSION ARGET
Here's a very easy and convenient way to set the expression target.
As an example, use the MODULATION selector to choose PITCH SHIFTER. So
that the effect will be easy to hear, we'll initialize the PITCH SHIFTER. If PITCH
SHIFTER is already selected, turn the selector to choose a different effect, and
then re-select PITCH SHIFTER.
When you're editing PITCH SHIFTER, turn value knob 1 or use the √ √ √ √ /® ® ® ® buttons
to make the name display show PITCH; the
you press and hold (for one second) the EXP/CTL button, the name display will
indicate COMPLETE. The PITCH parameter has now been assigned to the
expression pedal, letting you control the amount of PITCH SHIFT. At this time, the
icon will appear in the LCD display. If you want to make more detailed set-
tings, you can press the EXP/CTL button and set the minimum value ("EXP MIN,"
value knob 2) and maximum value ("EXP MAX," value knob 3) of the target range.
NOTE: If you change the effect type of a parameter that is assigned to the expres-
sion target (i.e., to be controlled by the expression pedal), the target will be initial-
ized to a setting of "--OFF--". (However, "D/INPUT", "R/INPUT" are exceptions.)
HINT: If you've selected "VOX WAH" as the pre-effect type, "P/MANUAL" (wah posi-
tion) is automatically assigned to the expression pedal. In this case if you change
the pre-effect back to another type without performing any other operation, the Tar-
get, Min, and Max settings will automatically revert to their previous state. However
if a pre-effect parameter was the target, it will be set to "--OFF--" rather than revert
to its previous state.
