Effect Bypass - Alesis airFX Reference Manual

Performance: Chapter 3

Effect Bypass

The effect Hold function can also be used as a Bypass. This function
turns off the Axyz controller so that the effect is not accidentally
triggered.
To use the Bypass function:
1. Recall a program as described in the previous section. There should
be no decimal points showing in the display.
Note that there are no decimal points in the display, showing that the
effect is loaded and operational.
2. Move your hand away from the Axyz controller, making sure that
the airFX isn't affecting the sound.
3. Press and hold the Program knob for one second. A decimal point
should appear in the display between the first and second number
of the program.
A decimal point has appeared between the first and second digits of the
program number, showing that the Bypass/Hold function is set.
4. The Axyz controller should now have no effect, so moving your
hand towards the Axyz dome should not change the sound.
5. To turn off the hold function and resume normal operation, press
the Program knob one more time. The decimal point should go
away and you can use the Axyz controller again to modify the
sound.
