2. Playing the AX100G
The modes of the AX100G
The AX100G is divided into three modes: Program mode, Effect
Select mode, and Phrase Trainer mode.
Program mode
In this mode you can select programs and use the AX100G for
normal performance.
Use the foot switches (UP, DOWN) to select programs.
Immediately after the power is turned on, the AX100G will al-
ways be in this mode. With the factory settings, the User pro-
grams contain the same programs as the Preset programs.
Effect Select mode
In this mode you can use the foot switches UP or DOWN to
switch the drive amp channel*
1
, Modulation effect or Ambience
effect on/off.
Programs cannot be selected in this mode. Use Program mode to
select programs.
*1 The AX100G provides two (A and B) Drive (distortion) Amp Effects so
that you can switch between settings such as backing and solo without
having to change programs.
Phrase Trainer mode
This mode allows you to record a phrase from a CD or MD con-
nected to the AUX IN jack, and play it back as a repeated loop
that you can practice along with.
Since you can slow down the playback speed without affecting
the pitch, this is a convenient way to learn or practice difficult
phrases.
When you enter Phrase Trainer mode, the Modulation, Pedal,
and Ambience effects will be turned off automatically.
In Program mode and Effect Select mode, you can use the various
knobs to edit the effect, adjust noise reduction, adjust the program
level, and change the program name.
Installing the batteries
1. Lightly press on arrow A of the battery case, and slide the lid
upward in the direction of the arrow to open the case.
2. Insert four AA alkaline batteries (sold separately) as shown in
the diagram. Be careful to observe the correct polarity (+ and
-) of the batteries.
3. Close the lid of the battery case.
If you will not be using the unit for an extended period of time,
remove the batteries to prevent them from leaking.
