Explanations of the Effect Types
his section explains the AX3000G’s sixteen drive/amp models and eleven
pre-effects, cabinet models, modulation, delay, and reverb effects.
A. DRIVE/AMP MODELS
The drive/amp model you select here will change the character of the tone controls
and their placement within the circuitry, producing the response that’s unique to each
model. This choice also selects an appropriate cabinet model.
* : This indicates a parameter that you can control from the expression pedal.
DRIVE MODELS
1. TUBE OD
This models an overdrive pedal housed in a garish, “seasick green” box, that is
considered an all-time classic due to the wonderfully warm tones it produces.
2. BOUTIQUE OD (BTQ OD)
This models an overdrive unit named after a half-human half-horse creature
appearing in Greek fables.
3. FAT DIST
This models a pedal named after one of the most disliked rodents to ever walk the
planet! The result is a smooth distortion rich in harmonics.
4. ORANGE DIST (OR DIST)
This models a classic distortion unit manufactured in Japan and packaged in an
orange box.
5. METAL DIST (METAL DS)
This models a distortion unit that’s ideal for metal.
6. SHRED DIST (SHRED DS)
This distortion resembles the sound produced by a large amp stack.
7. FUZZ
Retro, rude ‘n’ raw ... the name says it all.
8. OCTAFUZZ
This models a legendary fuzz unit that adds a pitch one octave above the original.
To get the best results, use your neck pickup and play above the 12th fret.
