Play mode

1. Let's play the AX1G

- Turn on the power

The AX1G does not have a power switch. The power will be turned on when one of the following occurs.

• If you are using batteries, the power will be turned on when you connect a mono phone plug cable to the INPUT jack.

If you connect a stereo phone plug cable, the power will not be turned on.

When the power is turned on, the AX1G will automatically be in Play mode.

The program selected at power-on will be the program which had been selected when the power was last turned off.

To maximize the battery life, disconnect the cable from the INPUT jack when you are not using the AX1G.

• If you are using the separately sold AC adapter, the power will be turned on when you connect the AC adapter to an AC outlet.

Before you turn off the power of the AX1G, turn off the power of the other connected equipment.

Adjusting the master level (overall volume)

The master level adjusts the final output volume of the AX1G. The master level setting is displayed in Play mode in the lower right of the LCD.

• Use the VALUE [+] or [-] keys to adjust the master level. If you continue holding a key, the value will change rapidly.

Normally you will leave the master level at 30 (maximum). The output of the AX1G will be optimal when the master level is set at 30. If the output sound is distorted when the master level is 30 and you play with the AX1G bypassed, reduce the master level so that the sound does not distort.

- Select a program and play

Here's how to select a user program.

① Press the BANK SELECT key to switch the bank between green, orange, and red.

The bank will change each time you press

the key, and the BANK/TUNER LEDs will change from "green - orange - red".

While you press the switches, the LCD will indicate "MUTE". When you release the switches, the tuner calibration will appear. The effect on/off indicators will blink in the same way as for Bypass.

② Press the UP or DOWN switch to defeat Mute.

3. Tuner

When the AX1G is bypassed or muted, the tuner will automatically operate. If you mute the AX1G, you will be able to tune without outputting any sound from your amp system etc., which is convenient during an on-stage performance.

- Tuning your guitar

① Bypass (or mute) the AX1G.

The AX1G will enter bypass or mute mode, and the tuner will operate.

If the metronome is on, the tuner will not operate.

② Play the string that you wish to tune.

The note name will appear in the PROGRAM/NOTE display. If the note you input is higher (#) than the note name, the decimal point “.” of the PROGRAM/NOTE display will light.

When the note name is A.

When the note name is A#.

When tuning, be careful to play only one string at a time.

③ Adjust the tuning head of your guitar to the desired pitch desired, so that the PROGRAM/NOTE display shows the correct note name.
④ Make fine adjustments to the tuning of your guitar so that only the center LED (green) of the BANK/TUNER LEDs is lit.

⑤ When you are finished tuning, turn off Bypass (or Mute).

- Changing the calibration

The tuner calibration (the frequency of the standard pitch A) can be adjusted in the range of 438 to 445Hz . You can adjust the calibration when the tuner is operating.

Press the VALUE ([+] or ([-]) keys to change the calibration.

Recording will not begin until your guitar exceeds a minimum volume level.

④ Operate the expression pedal.

LOOP1: The pedal will control the playback volume.

LOOP2: The pedal will control the length of the loop. The loop will become shorter as you return the pedal, and at the minimum length the loop will not playback at all.

The recorded sound will be cleared (erased) when the program is changed, when the AX1G is bypassed or muted, when the effect type is changed or when the power is turned off.

For SAMPL1/2, the recording time is 0.9 seconds for hi-fi sound or 1.8 seconds for lo-fi sound. For LOOP1/2, the recording time is 0.26-1.8 seconds (in approximately 0.05 second steps). (p.50, "Effect parameters")

The effect type and recording time can be modified in Edit mode. For details refer to p.15, "PEDAL (Expression Pedal)".

• Calibrating (adjusting) the expression pedal

The operating range of the expression pedal can be adjusted. If you find that the sensitivity of the expression pedal is not to your liking, you can perform this adjustment so that the pedal operates ideally. You should perform the adjustment described below if fully advancing the pedal does not produce the maximum effect, or conversely, if it is not possible to turn off the effect fully.

When calibrating the pedal, use your hand to operate the pedal. Accurate adjustment may not be possible if you use your foot to operate the pedal.

① While simultaneously holding down the PAGE [▲] key and VALUE [-] key, turn on the power.

The LCD will indicate "PEDAL" for approximately one second, and then indicate "MIN".

② Slowly move the pedal back. When it stops, take your hand off the pedal and press the VALUE [+] key.

The LCD will change from "MIN" to "MAX".

If you press the VALUE [-] key during the calibration operation, calibration will be halted. The power-on display will appear, and you will be in Play mode.

② press slowly

(3) Slowly move the pedal forward. When it stops, take your hand off the pedal and press the VALUE [+] key.

The LCD will display "COMPLT" for approximately one second. Then the initial power-on screen will appear, and you will be in Play mode.

After the calibration has been set, check the operation of the pedal at the MIN and MAX positions.

Check the operation by selecting an effect type that has a clearly audible result, such as the effect type VOLUME, and verify that the MIN level is produced for a value of 0.

If the calibration operation fails, the LCD will indicate "ERROR", and you will return to the display before calibration ("MIN"). If repeated attempts are unsuccessful, it is possible that the AX1G has malfunctioned. Contact a Korg service center or your dealer.

Edit mode

In Edit mode you can make detailed settings for each effect, and modify the program name.

Press the EDIT/EXIT key and the LCD will indicate "EDIT" showing that the AX1G is in Edit mode. Press the EDIT/EXIT key once again and you will return to Play mode. You can edit the on/off setting of each effect, and its parameters. When you edit a program, the ".” (decimal point) of the PROGRAM/NOTE display will light.

Edited programs will be lost if you change programs or turn the power off before writing the edited program. While editing, be sure to write your changes frequently. For the Write procedure, refer to p.16 "WRITE".

It is not possible to switch modes when the unit is bypassed (or muted). Defeat bypass (or mute), and then switch the mode.
