THINKING GLOBALLY
One of the most useful features of the AX2 is the ability to access some parameters
globally. Now we’re not talking about editing your sounds in Antarctica, here, but the
ability to change one control and have it effect every channel in the amp. This is great
if, for instance, you find yourself playing in a club where the walls are all perfectly
parallel cinder block construction, making every sound so bright everybody winces
when you play any note higher than an open G. You can just go into Global mode
(remember, you do that with two quick presses on the Main Edit Row button) and
turn the Treble control down on the Main row. Everybody breathes a sigh of relief and
you’re a huge hit. Just remember to reset the Global Tone Controls back to zero when
you’re done, so that they won’t be screwing your sound up later. All the info on that
was covered in the previous chapter of this User Guide.
Global mode parameters are not stored with the individual presets, but in a separate
area of memory. Once you set a Global parameter, it stays set until you either change
it, or do a System Reset (detailed in the System Resets section of this User Guide).
Here’s a list of the Global parameters that are accessed from the right side of the top
two AX2 Edit Rows:
MIDI Channel (1-16, All)
Transmit Sound (U01A-U32D, Edit Buffer, All)
Gate/Hum per Sound (Sound, All)
Aux per Sound (Sound, All)
And then, of course, there are the Global Tone Controls on the MAIN Row:
Drive, Bass, Mid, Treble, Gain, Delay/Reverb (all of them go from –50 to +50)
