Konnessjoni ma ' Amplifiers and PA Systems

When connecting the FX150B, consider the destination device:

• To the front of a guitar ampaktar ħaj: It is almost always recommended to turn off cabinet emulations on the FX150B to avoid double-coloring the sound.
• To a full-range device (headphones, interface, PA system): It is almost always recommended to keep cabinet emulations turned on for optimal sound.

Operating the FX150B

Main Screen and Navigation

Upon powering on, the main screen displays the preset name, preset location (e.g., Bank 04, Preset A), input/output meters, DSP usage, and expression pedal indicators. The effect chain is shown at the bottom, indicating the order of effects and which are active.

• Pum Master: Controls the overall master volume of the pedal.
• Buttuna tal-Valur: Used to scroll through presets in standard bank mode or adjust parameters when editing effects.
• Swiċċijiet tas-saqajn (A, B, Ċ): Navigate through presets A, B, and C within a bank.
• Bank Navigation: Hold footswitches A and B together to go down a bank, and B and C together to go up a bank.
• Modalità ta' Kontroll: Pressing the currently selected preset footswitch again engages control mode, allowing you to bypass or engage effect blocks in the chain, effectively creating a second preset.
• Tektek Tempo: Hold down the current preset footswitch to access tap tempo.

Built-in Tuner and Looper/Drum Machine
