ABOUT 3030 Overview of 3030 The 3030 is a multi-effect processor featuring seven effect modules (effect blocks). Each effect module works as a single effect, equivalent to a compact effect device. In other words, the 3030 can be thought of as functioning in the same way as seven compact effect devices linked together.A compact effect device comes with knobs for adjusting the type of effect and depth. Similarly, the effect modules have parameters that determine the type of effect and depth.

LET' S LISTEN TO SOME PATCHES (Play Mode Operation) The Play mode is for selecting a patch and playing. When you power-up the 3030, it automatically activates in Play mode, and the USER group's Bank 0, Patch Number 1 is selected. Panel Display for Play Mode In Play mode, the display LEDs on the panel show the following information: (1) (2) (5) U.
Patch Selection In Play mode, you can play by choosing one of the patches from among the 56 types (28 types of patches in the PRESET group plus 28 types of patches in the USER group) in memory. U.
Adjusting Master Volume In Play mode, regardless of the selectable patches, the final volume output by the 3030 can be controlled by the Master Volume.
Temporarily Switching Effect Sound OFF and Outputting Original Sound (Bypass Function) You can switch the 3030 Effect mode OFF temporarily (this is called "bypass"), and monitor the instrument's direct sound. This is a handy function for checking how the effects are working. U.
Temporarily Switching Original Sound and Effect Sound OFF, for Silent Status (Mute Function) The mute function temporarily turns the output OFF. U.
Tuning Your Guitar (Autotuner Function) The 3030 supports a chromatic autotuner function. This function can be used automatically in Bypass or Mute status. U.
Adjusting Standard Pitch of Tuner (Calibration) Set the internal standard pitch (Calibration). U.
CHANGING PATCH TONE (Edit Mode Operation) This section describes basic operation of the Edit mode. The 3030 patches are made up from a variety of parameters including effect modules, patch levels, and EXP/VOL pedal settings. In Edit mode,their values and settings can be edited to match the sound you prefer. Switching between Edit and Play Modes 8 types analog Distortion Harmonized Pitch Shifter 32 Individual effects 56 programs U.
Panel Display in Edit Mode In Edit mode, the panel displays the following information: (3) Mid (2) -2 GROUP U :USER P :PRESET :BOTH .
Switching Effect Modules ON/OFF In Edit mode, the numerous effect modules can be switched ON or OFF freely. U.
Changing Parameter Settings of Effects Choose the parameters to make up the effect module, and change the setting and value.
Setting Delay Time with Foot Switch (Tap Input) When using the delay effect type with EFF2 effect module, you can set the delay time to match the interval during which you step on Foot Switch 4. By using this function, you can easily set the delay time to match the music's tempo. U.
Tap Input of Delay Time 4 Using the BANK foot switch, turn the BANK foot switch LED OFF. When the BANK foot switch LED goes OFF, the tap input function for delay time is assigned to Foot Switch 4. NOTE 5 For details about the BANK foot switch function in Edit mode, see page 23 . Step on Foot Switch 4 twice, to match the tempo. The 3030 detects the interval for which the foot switch is held down, and the delay time will be set in the EFF2 effect module.
Storing Patches As long as you do not store to memory any patches edited in Edit mode, the original status will be returned when you select another patch. The following paragraphs describe how to store patches. U.
CONTROL THROUGH EXP/VOL PEDAL By using the 3030's in-built EXP/VOL pedal, you can control any effect parameter and EQ2 direct volume in realtime. For example, you can change the force of the distortion or increase the reverb time during performance. The parameters that you can control are determined by the effect module assigned to the pedal.
5 ▲ Press the PARAMETER key once to select Parameter 2 (Pedal Mode) . ▲ PARAMETER Depending on where the EXP/VOL pedal is stepped on, this parameter sets the kinds of changes for the parameter value of the assigned effect module. 6 PARM 2 + − Using the VALUE +/– keys, select mode 1 or 2. VALUE The working of 1 or 2 modes depends upon the effect type selected by the effect module assigned to the EXP/VOL pedal.
OTHER FUNCTIONS This section explains the 3030 special mode, and applications using the optional foot pedal or foot switch. Control Using FS01 (Manual Mode) With the optional foot switch FS01, you can use your foot to switch between the Play mode and the Manual (Edit) mode. This is handy during performance, and is like turning a compact effector ON and OFF. when you want to add an effect module's effect to a particular part of the music.
4 Using the BANK foot switch, select the effect modules to assign to Foot Switches 1 – 4. The 3030 has seven types of effect modules, so these can be divided into the first half and second half for assigning to the Foot Switches 1 – 4.
Control Using FP01 If you use the optional foot pedal FP01, you can use the FP01 as the volume pedal and the EXP/VOL pedal as the expression pedal. 8 types analog Distortion Harmonized Pitch Shifter 32 Individual effects 56 programs U.
Using Amp Simulator The 3030 contains an amp simulator independent of the effect modules included in the patches. 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.
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. U.
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 ★ 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.
(5) Position 2: PEDAL WAH This effect type provides pedal control of the frequency emphasized by passing only particular sound ranges through a band pass filter. Parameter 2 Parameter 3 Parameter 4 Parameter 5 Freq ★ DRY-Mix Mode Position 1 – 10 0–5 1–4 0–1 Explanation (2) Freq (Frequency) Determines the frequency when pedal control is not used. (3) DRY-Mix Mixes an effect sound with the direct sound. When the value is 0, only the effect sound is produced.
(4) Bass 2: OD2 (Overdrive 2) Gives the tube amplifier's unique, full overdrive sound. Implements boost/cut for the bass frequency range (around 125 Hz). (5) Level Adjusts the overall output level of the module. 3: DIST1 (Distortion 1) Gives a heavy distortion sound centering on the low range. HINT 4: DIST2 (Distortion 2) Gives a hard distortion sound similar to driving a large amplifier to full level. 5: BLUES OD (Blues Overdrive) This gives the overdrive a raw sonic.
PEDAL PITCH Modes and Pitch Shift Ranges Pedal up Pedal down (4) Shift Determines the direction in which the pitch is shifted. dn: The pitch lowers. UP: The pitch rises.
When the dynamic filter has been selected with Parameter 5 5: CHORUS You can create a rich, warm ambience by adding a delay sound longer than the FLANGER to the direct sound, and periodically altering the delay time. Parameter 2 Parameter 3 Parameter 4 Parameter 5 Depth Rate Tone-peak Mix ★ 0 – 10 1 – 50 0 – 10 0 – 10 Explanation Parameter 2 Parameter 3 Parameter 4 Depth Rate★ Curve-peak 0 – 10 1 – 50 0–3 Explanation (2) Depth Determines the range of the filter frequency to be changed.
Explanation (2) Depth 9: METALLIC Ring modulator that makes a metallic sound. Picking alters the modulation wave form, so the modulated feeling is enhanced. Parameter 2 Parameter 3 Parameter 4 Parameter 5 Depth Rate Freq-peak Balance ★ 0 – 10 1 – 50 0 – 10 0 – 10 Sets the pitch for the start of pitch bend. (This is regardless of the unit of measurement.
12: HPS (Harmonized Pitch Shifter) This effect is for guitar only; it enables diatonic harmonization for the specified scale. Parameter 2 Parameter 3 Parameter 4 Parameter 5 Key Scale-fine Shift Mix ★ C, C# – A#, B M3, m3, 4th, 5th, 6th dn,up 0 – 10 Explanation This is similar to Effect Module 1, but produces an expansive sound in stereo, for the Stereo Chorus effect.
