ANTI-FEEDBACK
This suppresses the acoustic feedback (the whine or squeal)
that can occur depending on the position of the guitar and
amp, or depending on the surrounding
environment.
[REDUCTION] knob
This is a suppression function that is
designed to have a minimal eect on the
tonal quality, and is optimized for the low-
frequency feedback that often occurs with
an acoustic guitar. Use the knob to adjust
the strength of the reduction eect.
When feedback occurs, the reduction is automatically applied
only at the specic frequency at which feedback occurs.
[NOTCH1], [NOTCH2] button
Set this to the point (notch frequency) at which you want to
reduce feedback. The AD-10 lets you specify two dierent
points: [NOTCH1] and [NOTCH2]. You can also set the notch
frequency automatically when feedback occurs.
1. Press the [NOTCH1] or [NOTCH2] button to turn it on.
Each time you press a button, it turns on/o.
2. Use the [
?
] [
=
] buttons to specify the note name of
the point at which feedback is occurring.
* If you press [NOTCH1] and [NOTCH2] simultaneously, the
point at which feedback is occurring is scanned and specied
automatically.

COMP (Compressor)
This makes the volume of the input signal more
consistent. By suppressing the peak of the attacks,
it prevents distortion even when the input
sensitivity is raised.
Turning the knob toward the right makes the
eect stronger.
[TYPE] Button
Each time you press this button, the setting switches between
o/soft/hard.
DELAY/CHORUS
DELAY is an echo-like eect. It adds a
delayed sound to the original sound,
creating a spatially expansive feeling.
In CHORUS eect, a slightly detuned
sound is added to the original sound
to add depth and breadth.
[TIME] knob
Adjusts the delay time.
[E.LEVEL] knob
Adjusts the delay volume.
[TYPE] Button
