Making connections

When connecting an external device (ie-guitar amp, bass amp, CD player, ac adapter, etc.) be sure to turn the unit off.

KORG PANDORA PX4D - Making connections - 1

1 Be sure to use only the specified AC adaptor (DC4.5V ◆-◇).
2 If a CD player or other audio source is connected to the AUX jack, you can play along with your guitar or bass. However the volume must be adjusted from the connected device.
3 Connecting cables are sold separately.
4 PX4D's output jack is stereo. If you use a standard mono cable to connect it to a guitar or bass amp etc., only the L (left) output will be heard.
*5 PX4D's output level and sound quality will vary depending on which headphones are used. We recommend using good quality low impedance headphones, 32 Ohms or less with a sensitivity rating near 100dB/mW or above. Many headphones sold for use with portable CD or cassette players will work just fine.

Initial Settings

  1. When you finish making connections, set the power switch to the "ON" position. (This setting is referred to as Play mode.) Use the buttons to select a program.

  2. Set the input level switch for the output level of your guitar or bass.

Hi: High-output pickups (e.g., humbucking pickups or pickups with a preamp)

Lo: Low-output pickups (e.g., single-coil type pickups)

  1. Set the volume control of your guitar or bass to its usual position. Use the Value dial to adjust the master level.

Quick Edit

In each mode (except when Mute/Bypass or Key Lock are active), you can use the Amp Modeling selector to quickly change the amp modeling type, or use the control knobs to adjust the gain, tone, or volume of amp modeling. When you use the amp model selector to change the amp model type, the cabinet type will automat-

ically change to the recommended type. When you move a control knob, the parameter name and value will appear for several seconds in the value display. If the setting matches the original setting, the ORIG icon will light.

The Delay Time can also be set by pressing the TAP button twice at the desired interval (except when in Rhythm & Bass mode). To check the Delay Time that was specified, press and hold the TAP button for two seconds or longer.

The value display will indicate "Gt" for approximately one second if you've selected a guitar amp cabinet, or "bA" if you've selected a bass amp cabinet.

You are free to use a guitar AMP with a bass CAB, or a bass AMP with a guitar CAB.

7) NR (Noise reduction)

Use the Value dial to adjust the depth of the noise reduction that is applied.

KORG PANDORA PX4D - 3) CAB (Cabinet Modeling) - 9

KORG PANDORA PX4D - 3) CAB (Cabinet Modeling) - 10

Adjust the depth of noise reduction

Increasing this value will produce more noise reduction. Normally you will adjust this so that you do not hear obtrusive noise when the strings are lightly muted.

KORG PANDORA PX4D - 3) CAB (Cabinet Modeling) - 11

If the NR value is raised excessively, the sound may be cut off prematurely, depending on the device that is connected. If this occurs, reduce the value.

KORG PANDORA PX4D - 3) CAB (Cabinet Modeling) - 12

Adjust the NR level as suitable for your guitar, bass, or pickup.

8) RENAME

Here you can specify a name for each program. The following characters can be used: space, 0-9,A-Z,“,‘,*,+,,-,I.

9)WRITE

Here you can write (store) a program that you created.

Use the Value dial to select the writing destination (User programs only). When you do so, the name of the program that currently occupies the writing destination will be displayed briefly.

If you decide not to write, press the (or ) button to select a different screen.

When you press the ENTER/REC button, the edited program will be written into memory.

When the program has been written, the LCD will indicate "COMPLT" for approximately one second.

KORG PANDORA PX4D - 9)WRITE - 1

Before writing an edited program into a different program number, be sure that you do not mind overwriting the data that is currently in that program number. The program data that is overwritten will be lost.

It is not possible to write to a preset program.

3. Reloading the factory programs

While holding down the RHYTHM button and the button, turn on the power. The LCD will ask "RELOAD?"

If you press the ENTER/REC button, the factory-set programs will be re-loaded into the user program area. The display will indicate "RELOAD", "VERIFY", "COMPLT" for a short time, and then the power-on screen will appear.

Never turn off the power during the reload operation.

If you decide not to reload, press the EXIT button while the "RELOAD?" indication is still shown. The factory programs will not be reloaded; the normal power-on screen will appear, and the PX4D will be in Play mode.

Be aware that if you reload the factory programs, the user programs and any settings that are remembered when the power is turned off (master level etc.) will all be rewritten.

Troubleshooting

If the PX4D does not operate as you expect, please check the following points first. If this does not resolve the problem, contact your dealer.

1. Power does not turn on.

  • Are batteries installed? Alternatively, is the correct AC adapter connected to an AC outlet?

2.No sound

  • Are your guitar or bass, amp and/or headphones connected to the correct jacks?
  • Is your amp turned on and set correctly?
  • Are any cables broken?
    Is the master level of the PX4D set to "0" or to a low level?
  • The VOLUME control knob may have been turned down.
    Is the PX4D muted?

Be aware that if all effects are off, the chain display will disappear, and it will not be possible to distinguish Bypass or Mute from the LCD display.

  • Is the volume of your guitar turned down?

3. The volume from the device connected to the AUX jack is too loud or too soft, or cannot be heard.

  • Adjust the output level of the connected device.

Make connections to the headphone jack of the device, instead of to its line output.

  • Are you in Phrase Trainer mode?

Exit Phrase Trainer mode.

  • Are you using a connection cable with a built-in resistor?

4. Effects do not apply

  • Is the PX4D bypassed? (the effect chain will be blinking)
  • Are the effects used in the program turned on?

5. Tuner does not work.

  • Is the PX4D bypassed or muted?

AMP (Amp Modeling)

When using Amp Modeling, the control knobs (GAIN/MID, BASS, TREBLE, VOLUME) and Value dial will be active. The VOLUME knob can still be used even when Amp Modeling is "OFF."

If SYNTH is selected as the type, the control knobs will control oscillator selection, VCF setting, direct level, and synth level respectively. Types marked by an asterisk* can also be selected by the amp modeling selector. In order to take full advantage of the characteristics of Amp Modeling, we recommend that you use it in conjunction with Cabinet Modeling when listening through head-

phones or when recording from line output.

About the Intelligent Pitch Shifter

The Intelligent Pitch Shifter creates musically useful harmonies by varying the amount of pitch shift according to the note you play and the key in which you are playing. For example if you select a pitch shift of a 3rd up in a major key (MAJ3UP), the amount of pitch shift will vary automatically between three semitones (a minor third) and four semitones (a major third).

- When MAJ3UP is used with a key setting of C

KORG PANDORA PX4D - - When MAJ3UP is used with a key setting of C - 1

The pitch created by the intelligent pitch shifter is shown in parenthesis ( ).

The PX4D provides seven types of intelligent pitch shifting, with intervals of a 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th. (For the 3rd, you can select either the upper or lower part, and a major or minor key.)

KORG PANDORA PX4D - - When MAJ3UP is used with a key setting of C - 2

If your instrument is not tuned correctly, the results may not be as you expect. In this case, re-tune your instrument.

KORG PANDORA PX4D - - When MAJ3UP is used with a key setting of C - 3

The intelligent pitch shifter will function when you play individual notes. It cannot produce the effect for chords.

DLY (Delay Modeling)

Each delay type, (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) have different amounts of feedback.

The delay time is set by the interval at which you press the TAP button twice. The specified delay time can be a maximum of 500 ms for SLAP or a maximum of 2 sec for MULTI, and can be checked by holding down the TAP button.
