6.0 SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
6.1 PRE EFFECT MODE
The following effects are available to you in this mode (see also
the table INS-FX in the appendix under 11.1). Unlike the other
effects found in the effect section, the only signal routing option
for these effects is PRE, in other words, in front of the input:
Wah Wah: '60s vintage wah-wah
Wah Wah 2: contemporary wah-wah with more bottom end
Fix Wah: both wah-wahs with fixed frequency (as if you left the
wah-wah pedal on in a certain position)
Mod Wah: automatic version of the two wah-wahs
Compressor: three compressors with different attack times - short,
medium, long
Tube Scream, Fuzz: two legendary distortion boxes
Tap
r
AMP TYPE briefly to access PRE EFFECT MODE.
In PRE EFFECT MODE, select the desired effect via
W
TYPE.
Use
W
PARA 1 and
W
PARA 2 to edit the given effect para-
meters. Press and hold
t
AMP TYPE to set PRE EFFECT MODE to
BYPASS This lets you A/B the sound with and without effect.
If you want to use an expression pedal (see FOOTPEDAL in the
section above) to create wah-wah effects, you must use
W
TYPE
to assign WAH or WAH 2 to the given presets.
6.2 GLOBAL EQ
If you use your zenTera
®
in different venues, you may occasionally
find it necessary to adjust its settings to suit the acoustics of the
given room, for example, to cut back the bass frequencies for
smaller clubs' stages. The GLOBAL EQ lets you do this quickly
without having to adjust the settings of all presets.
To activate the GLOBAL EQ, press and hold the
t
PRESET knob.
EQUALIZER ON or OFF will appear in the display. If OFF appears,
press and hold
t
PRESET once more.
The EQ will activate and the BASS, MID, TREBLE and PRESENCE
knobs are enabled.
W
BASS adjusts the bottom end,
W
MID the low mids,
W
TREBLE
the upper mids, and
W
PRESENCE the top end frequencies. You
can switch the EQ (
t
PRESET) on and off to hear how the
modifications affect the sound.
Once you are satisfied, leave the EQ on and exit the menu by
briefly tapping
r
TUNER.
Note: If the GLOBAL EQ was on when you switched the amp off,
the amp will indicate this when you switch it on again. EQUALIZER
ON will flash in the display for about eight seconds. The idea here
is of course to remind you that the EQ is still enabled. If you are in
a different venue, you should switch the GLOBAL EQ off or
readjust it.
6.3 TUNER
Activate the built-in tuning device by tapping
r
TUNER with your
fingertip. The term TUNER will appear in the first line of the display.
A large “+” appears when the string’s pitch is sharp (too high), a
“-“ when the pitch is flat (too low), and “OK” when the string is
tuned to pitch. You can also see this indicated in the chain of
lights at the bottom of the display.
Various values can appear in the second line.
Let’s take a look at these:
1) The selected center frequency of the reference note A is indi-
cated at the beginning of the line. You can adjust it within a
range of 435 to 445 hertz using PARA 1. This lets you calibrate
the TUNER should the need arise.
2) You can opt to mute the zenTera while you are tuning. Use
PARA 2 to preset the amp’s level for the duration of the tuning
procedure: M = muted, 1, 2 ,3 = three different levels. The
given setting appears in the display following the center fre-
quency.
3) The pitch of the most recently played string is indicated at the
end of the second display line.
