LFOs
The Genesis3 includes two assignable low frequency oscillators (LFO1 and LFO2) which can be assigned to any of
the same parameters available for assignment to the Expression Pedal.A low frequency oscillator will automatically
vary the value of the assigned parameter at a steady rate.A minimum and maximum value each LFO will reach may
be also be assigned.For instance: if the Amp Gain was assigned to LFO1, and the minimum value was set at 1 and the
maximum value was set at 99,the Genesis3 would automatically sweep the amount of distortion from a fully clean
sound to a fully distorted sound. Individual LFO speeds are also available for assignment.In the previous example,the
LFO speed would determine the length of time it took the LFO to sweep from the clean to the distorted sound.The
procedure for assigning the LFOs in the Genesis3 is as follows:
1.Press the TAP-IT and EDIT buttons simultaneously to enter the Assign menu.
2.Rotate the DATA knob to select whether you want to assign LFO1 (LFO1) or LFO2 (LFO2).
3.Rotate the P1 knob until the desired Parameter appears in the Display. See the Expression Parameter Assignment
list on page 29 for a complete list of assignable Parameters.
4.Rotate the P2 knob to select the minimum value the assigned parameter will reach at the bottom turn around
point for the LFO (not available when volume is the assigned parameter).
5.Rotate the P3 knob to select the maximum value the assigned parameter will reach at the top turn around point
for the LFO (not available when volume is the assigned parameter).
6.Rotate the P4 knob to select the speed at which the LFO will oscillate from the minimum to the maximum values.
LFO speed ranges from .O5 HZ (.05 Hz) to 1ºO HZ (10.0 Hz).
7.Rotate the P5 knob to select the waveform the LFO will oscillate on.Your choices include:
TRINGL (Triangle) - a smooth rise and fall, but abrupt turn around in oscillation.
SINE (Sine) - a smooth rise, fall,and turn around in oscillation.
SQUARE (Square) - an abrupt rise,fall, and turn around in oscillation.
8.Store your LFO assignment to your Preset.See page 14 for more information on the storing procedure.
Amp Footswitch
From the factory, the Genesis3 has the Amp Footswitch on the Control X assigned to change between the Green
and the Red Amp Channels. However, the Genesis3 allows you to select the function of the Amp Footswitch.The
procedure for assigning the function of the Amp Footswitch is as follows:
1.Press the TAP-IT and EDIT buttons simultaneously to enter the Assign menu.
2.Rotate the DATA knob until the Display reads AMP FS (Amp Footswitch).
3.Rotate the Number 1 knob to select the desired function of the Amp Footswitch.Your choices include:
G-R - Switches between the Green and Red Amp Channels.
G-Y - Switches between the Green and Yellow (Warped) Channels.
R-Y - Switches between the Red and Yellow (Warped) Channels.
G-R-Y - Switches between the Green, Red,and Yellow (Warped) Channels.
4.Store your Amp Footswitch assignment to your Preset.See page 14 for more information on the storing
procedure.
