User manual DIGITECH GNX3000

[. . . ] Warranty We at DigiTech are very proud of our products and back-up each one we sell with the following warranty: 1. The warranty registration card must be mailed within ten days after purchase date to validate this warranty. DigiTech warrants this product, when used solely within the U. S. , to be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service. DigiTech liability under this warranty is limited to repairing or replacing defective materials that show evidence of defect, provided the product is returned to DigiTech WITH RETURN AUTHORIZATION, where all parts and labor will be covered up to a period of one year. [. . . ] There are five Talker types. Type KNOB 1 is used to select one of the 5 Talker types. Talker Types range from talker 1 (deep tonal characteristics), to talker 5 (bright tonal characteristics). Parameter 1 KNOB 2 adjusts the Sensitivity of the microphone level (MIC LEVL). The input level from your microphone must be loud enough for the Talker to work properly. If the microphone input is too weak, the Talker will have trouble tracking. If the input is too strong, the Talker will clip making the words unintelligible. Adjust the mic level on the GNX3000's rear panel so that the LEDs light, but stay below the clip level. (See Mic Level Optimization on page 26 for more information regarding mic level adjustment. ) The mic level sensitivity ranges are from 0 (least sensitive) to 99 (most sensitive). Knob 3 No function when Talker is selected. Knob 4 No function when Talker is selected. Knob 5 No function when Talker is selected. 57 GNX3000 Owner's Manual Effects and Parameters Stompbox Modeling The GNX3000 Modeling emulates the tones of the most popular distortion boxes ever used including the DOD® OD250TM, Boss® DS-1TM, Arbiter® Fuzz FaceTM, Electro Harmonix® Big MuffTM, ProCo® RATTM, DOD® GrungeTM, Boss® Metal ZoneTM, Ibanez® TS-9TM, Voodoo Labs® Sparkle DriveTM, and the Guyatone® OD-2TM* and the Roger® Mayer OctaviaTM*.

The GNX3000 includes two different types of Noise Gates: Silencer and Pluck. The Pluck feature is designed to close after every note (depending on the Pluck Sensitivity). This allows automatic volume swells to occur on a note by note basis. Gate On/Off The STATUS button turns the Noise Gate (gate) on and off. Gate Type KNOB 1 selects between the Silencer (Silencer) or Pluck (PLUCK) type of Noise Gates. Gate Threshold KNOB 2 sets the signal strength required to open or close the Noise Gate. The Gate Threshold (Threshld) parameter ranges from 0 (opens easily) to 99 (requires strong signals to open). Gate Attack KNOB 3 adjusts the length of time it takes the gate to open (ATTACK) and the signal to become audible once the Threshold has been exceeded. Ranges from 0 (immediate signal), to 9 (This setting will gradually ramp up the volume). Pluck Sensitivity KNOB 4 selects the threshold (PLUCKSNS) where the Gate re-triggers when using the Pluck type Noise Gate. This parameter is only available when Pluck is the selected type of Noise Gate. Ranges from 0 (requires strong signals) to 99 (retriggers with weak signals). Knob 5 No function when the Noise Gate is selected.

[. . . ] · You can adjust the mix of playback versus guitar by adjusting the USB Playback mix parameter. · Try increasing the latency slider in the Option>Audio Settings menu window. · Try reducing the number of tracks in your project (mute won't help, you either have to "archive" the tracks, or delete them) · Close any other open programs besides Pro Tracks Plus check Windows Task Manager to make sure there are no hidden programs running. · Put your audio data on a different hard drive from your OS and applications. 125 GNX3000 Owner's Manual Troubleshooting Guide · The hardware has been profiled incorrectly.
