The 3030 is a multi-effect device with the following features: INTRODUCTION · Furnishes 32 types of diverse single effects; also contaius an amp simulator and noise reduction function (ZNR). [. . . ] If you use the amp simulator, you will obtain realistic guitar amp sounds when monitoring with the headphones or audio system. 8 types analog Distortion Harmonized Pitch Shifter 32 Individual effects 56 programs U. 0 GROUP U :USER :PRESET :BOTH BANK PARM 1 PARM 2 PARM 3 PARM 4 PARM 5 PEDAL OFF VOL EXP Sens Attack Tone Mode Patch Level Type Freq/Sens Gain/Mix Q/Mode Position Type Gain Tone Level ZNR Presence Treble Mid Bass Level Type Type Type Time PreDLY/FB Pedal Assign Pedal Mode Serl/Para Amp Sim Master Vol Pitch/Depth/Key Depth/Time Fine/Rate/Time Rate/TmFine Shift/Peak Mix/Bal/Mode EQ1/WAH 1:EQ1 2:PEDAL WAH 3:AUTO WAH DIST 1:OD 1 2:OD 2 3:DIST 1 4:DIST 2 5:BLUES OD 6:FUZZ 7:LEAD 8:METAL Tone/Width/FB Tone/Mode Bal/Clip Mix EFF1 1:PEDAL PITCH 2:PITCH SHIFT 3:FLANGER 4:PHASE 5:CHORUS 6:SLOW ATTACK 7:STEP 8:TREMOLO 9:METALLIC EFF2 1:STEREO CHORUS 2:AUTO PAN 3:MONO DLY 4:PINGPONG DLY SFX 1:SUPER BENDER 2:PITCH DLY 3:HPS REVERB 1:HALL 2:ROOM 3:PINGPONG DLY Pedal Assign 0:OFF 1:VOLUME 2:WAH 3:DIST 4:EFF1/SFX 6:EFF2 6:REVERB .

Use the PARAMETER 4 (Amp Sim). keys to select Parameter PARAMETER Parameter 4 (Amp Sim) is used for switching the amp simulator ON and OFF, and for selecting the mode. OTHER FUNCTIONS Use the VALUE + /­ keys to select the amp simulator mode from among the following. 0: OFF The amp simulator function is OFF. 1: COMBO Simulates the sound of a 100 W combo amp. 2: BRIGHT COMBO Simulates the sound made by a 120 W bright amp that accentuates the high range. 3: STACK Simulates the sound made by stacked amps consisting of four speakers. VALUE 5 Press the EDIT key to return to Play mode. NOTE · The amp simulator works in common for all patches. The amp simulator setting remains the same even when patches are switched. · If you turn off the power without storing the current setting, the value for the previous setting will come up when the 3030 is turned on again. If you want to store the current setting, select a patch from one of the USER groups and store it. (See page 19. ) EDIT 25 Returning to 3030 Factory Settings (All Initialize) All Initialize is a special function for returning all the patches in the USER group and the values of the TOTAL parameters to their factory settings. NOTE Keep in mind that any patches you have stored will be erased if you implement the All Initialize function. 8 types analog Distortion Harmonized Pitch Shifter 32 Individual effects 56 programs U. 0 GROUP U :USER :PRESET :BOTH BANK PARM 1 PARM 2 PARM 3 PARM 4 PARM 5 PEDAL OFF VOL EXP Sens Attack Tone Mode Patch Level Type Freq/Sens Gain/Mix Q/Mode Position Type Gain Tone Level ZNR Presence Treble Mid Bass Level Type Type Type Time PreDLY/FB Pedal Assign Pedal Mode Serl/Para Amp Sim Master Vol Pitch/Depth/Key Depth/Time Fine/Rate/Time Rate/TmFine Shift/Peak Mix/Bal/Mode EQ1/WAH 1:EQ1 2:PEDAL WAH 3:AUTO WAH DIST 1:OD 1 2:OD 2 3:DIST 1 4:DIST 2 5:BLUES OD 6:FUZZ 7:LEAD 8:METAL Tone/Width/FB Tone/Mode Bal/Clip Mix EFF1 1:PEDAL PITCH 2:PITCH SHIFT 3:FLANGER 4:PHASE 5:CHORUS 6:SLOW ATTACK 7:STEP 8:TREMOLO 9:METALLIC EFF2 1:STEREO CHORUS 2:AUTO PAN 3:MONO DLY 4:PINGPONG DLY SFX 1:SUPER BENDER 2:PITCH DLY 3:HPS REVERB 1:HALL 2:ROOM 3:PINGPONG DLY Pedal Assign 0:OFF 1:VOLUME 2:WAH 3:DIST 4:EFF1/SFX 6:EFF2 6:REVERB .

( Be sure to turn the amplifier volume down to minimum. ) While holding the STORE key down, reinsert the AC adapter to power up the 3030. AL will flash on the display, indicating that the 3030 is standing by for the All Initialize operation. STORE 3 Press the STORE key again. The All Initialize function will be executed, and the Play mode returned. To cancel the All Initialize function, press the EDIT key. This cancels the All Initialize operation and returns the Play mode. STORE 26 EFFECT TYPES AND PARAMETERS This section explains all the Zoom Player 3030 s effect types and parameters. However, parameters that are the same for other effect types are only explained in brief. Parameter names marked with 5 can be controlled with the EXP/VOL pedal. Effect Module 2: EQ1/WAH (Equalizer 1/Wah) This module includes a parametric equalizer for directly altering the tonal quality, and a wah effect. Parameter 1 Type 1­3 Effect Module 1: COMP (Compressor) The compressor maintains the volume at a given level without impairing the sense of tone and attack. Parameter 1 Parameter 2 Parameter 3 Parameter 4 Parameter 5 Sens Attack Tone Mode Patch Level 1­8 0­5 0 ­ 10 1­2 0 ­ 50 Explanation (1) Type Used to select the effect type. (The contents of Parameters 2-5 vary according to the effect type. ) 1: EQ 1 2: PEDAL WAH 3: AUTO WAH 1: EQ1 (Parametric Equalizer) The one-band parametric equalizer generates boost/cut for the central frequency, which can be set freely. Q is also furnished, enabling direct sound processing. Parameter 2 Parameter 3 Parameter 4 Parameter 5 Freq Gain Q Position 1­4 -3 ­ +3 1­2 0­1 Explanation: (1) Sens Determines the compressor depth. Higher values result in a more uniform level, for a merged sound. (2) Attack This sets the time that it takes from when the guitar plays the attack until the compressor effect starts. The smaller the value, the faster it starts. (3) Tone Adjusts the tone. Higher values accentuate the top range to produce bright tones, and lower values accentuate the low range to produce heavy tones. Explanation (2) Freq (Frequency) Determines the frequency of the boost/cut. (3) Gain Determines the amount of the boost/cut. The larger the value, the stronger the boost, and the smaller the value, the stronger the cut. (4) Mode The tone of the compressor module can be selected from two modes. 1: Normal tone compressor 2: Bright tone compressor, with the low range cut EFFECT TYPES AND PARAMETERS (4) Q Determines the frequency set in Parameter 2 as the central width of the frequency band for boost/cut. For "1", the boost and cut in the broad frequency ranges is smooth; for "2", boost and cut are performed partially for the narrow frequency ranges. . (5) Patch Level Determines the output level for each patch. The final adjustments to the differences in patch volumes are done with this function. [. . . ] For this Pedal Mode, control is supposed to cover the range from the minimum value through to the value set by the parameter, but the value of the parameter itself is the minimum value, so the pedal control cannot make any change and the EXP/VOL pedal will not work. Adjust the parameter value to a suitable level. · Is the AC adapter connected correctly and the power ON?· Is the INPUT jack correctly connected to the guitar, and the OUTPUT jack to the amplifier?· Is the connected amplifier's power ON?
