Selecting And Adjusting Sub-Parameters And [Tone] Parameters; Saving A Program (Write Mode) - Korg TONEWORKS AX3A Owner's Manual

By adjusting the main parameters, you can tweak your sound to what
you have in mind.
Selecting and adjusting sub-parameters and
[TONE] parameters
[PRE FX-PARAM], [TONE], [MOD-PARAM], [DELAY/REV-PARAM]
Here's how to edit the sub-parameters for the effect selected in [PRE
FX], [MOD], and [DELAY/REV], as well as the parameters for [TONE].
When you press the [▲] or [▼] buttons, the program/value display will
indicate a value of P1–P4, and the LED at the top of the Program Down
switch will light to indicate that the program/value display is showing the
parameter type.
For the sub-parameters that correspond to P1–P4, refer to p.44 "Appen-
dices".
Now you can use the value knob to adjust each sub-parameter to your
taste.
At this time, the program/value display indicates the value of the param-
eter, and the LED at the top of the Program Up switch will light to indi-
cate that the program/value display is showing the parameter value.
If an effect other than [TONE] is turned off, the program/value display
will indicate " " when you turn the function select knob to [PARAM] for
that category. If you want to edit the parameters of that effect, simulta-
neously press both [▲] and [▼] buttons to turn the effect on.
■ Quick guide
When you want to make adjustments to the sound of the effect you've
selected, you should start by adjusting the main parameter, and then
adjust the P1 sub-parameter. In most cases, adjusting these two param-
eters will give you the sound you want. ([TONE] is an exception to this.)
[LEVEL/NR/NOTCH]
Select this position when you want to select or adjust the program level,
noise reduction, or notch filter. Then press the [▲] or [▼] buttons to
cycle the display through LE (program level), nr (NR sensitivity), and nF
(notch filter). Use the value knob to adjust each parameter.
LE: Use the value knob to adjust the program level (0–10). A setting of
7.0 is the standard value. Some effect settings may cause clipping.
If this occurs, lower the program level.
nr: Adjust the noise reduction sensitivity (0–10) so that you don't hear
noise (hiss) when you're not playing your guitar.
Depending on the guitar you're using, notes may be cut off if you
raise the noise reduction value excessively. Adjust this so notes ring
out naturally.
nF: This adjusts the notch filter (oF, 1-63) that reduces acoustic feed-
back. Turn the knob to set the cutoff frequency at which acoustic
feedback will be reduced. The notch filter will be off if you turn the
knob all the way to the left. Turn the knob toward the right to move
the cutoff frequency from low to high, and find the point at which the
acoustic feedback is occurring.
Effect/parameter type and parameter value display
When you press the Program Down switch in Edit mode, the program/
value display will indicate the effect type or parameter type (F0–F9, P1–
P4). When you press the Program Up switch, the program/value display
will indicate the parameter value. This gives you a convenient way to
check the current settings.

Saving a program (Write mode)

Here's how to save (write) a sound that you've created.
If you switch to a different program in Program mode or turn off the power
without writing your settings into memory, the changes you made will be lost.
1. Set the function selector to [WRITE].
2. Press the [▲(WRITE)] button. The program number will blink.
