3. Editing
In Play mode and Individual mode, you can edit each effect, set noise reduction and program levels, and modify the program name. During editing, the edit icon in the display will blink.
5. Rotate the knobs and the sound will change. The name display will indicate the name of the parameter assigned to that knob, and the MASTER/VALUE display will indicate the value. At this time, the �ORIG� icon will light when the position of the knob matches the original value � i.e., the value before you began editing.
Instead of the five value knobs, you can also use the cursor switches( , ) to select parameters, and use the MASTER/VALUE switches (v, w) to adjust the value of the parameter currently shown in the name display.

In Phrase Trainer mode, it is possible to edit the DRIVEAMP and CABINET effect blocks, but it is not possible to perform editing operations that use the name display, MASTER/VALUE display, the cursor switches or the MASTER/VALUE switches. In addition, it is not possible to switch programs or effect channels.
If you do not wish to use the DRIVE-AMP effect block, press the DRIVE-AMP effect block select switch until the LED goes dark. The DRIVE-AMP effect block is now bypassed, and the name display will indicate �-OFF-.� The cabinet effect can be edited in the same way as the drive amp effect. Since the modulation, pedal, and ambience effects do not have separate effect channels, begin from step 2 of �Editing example.�
For some effects, it is not possible to simultaneously use the MODULATION and PEDAL effect blocks, or the PEDAL and AMBIENCE effect blocks. If you attempt to turn on both effect blocks, the block that had been turned on first will automatically be turned off.
Editing effects
Rotate the effect select knob of the effect block that you wish to edit, or press the corresponding effect block select switch. The effect block LED will begin blinking, indicating that it has been selected for editing. Each program has two channels of settings (A and B) for the drive amp and cabinet effects. Press the effect channel switch to select the channel you wish to edit. Use the effect select knob, effect block select switch, and value knobs to edit the settings.
If you wish to save the edited effect, perform the �Program write� operation. If you fail to do this, the effect program will revert to its original settings when you turn off the power or select a different program.
Quick Editing for the DRIVE-AMP effect block
In the default state of each mode, the DRIVE-AMP effect block parameters used by the selected program are assigned to the value knobs (except when the effect is off). When you rotate each value knob, the AX1500G will enter edit mode (the effect program switch LED and the edit icon will blink). The name display will show the parameter name, the MASTER/VALUE display will show the parameter value, and the sound will change.
If you wish to change an effect that is in use, use the effect select knobs to select the desired effect. It is not possible to edit when other functions are assigned to the value knobs, when the AX1500G is bypassed, muted, or recording in Phrase Trainer mode.
Editing example
As an example, we will explain how to select TUBE OD as the drive amp effect for channel B. 1. Press the effect channel switch to select channel B (the channel LED will light red). 2. If the name display indicated �TUBE OD� when you pressed the effect block select switch(DRIVEAMP), simply continue. If not, turn the DRIVEAMP effect select knob to the TUBE OD position. If the effect select knob was already located at TUBE OD, first select a different effect model, and then turn the knob back to TUBE OD. 3. The effect block LED will begin blinking, indicating that it has been selected for editing. (The name display will indicate the model name as �TUBE OD.�) If you selected a programmed effect, the �ORIG� icon will light. 4. The five value LED�s will light, and the corresponding value knobs will be assigned to DRIVE, LEVEL, TREBLE, MIDDLE, and BASS respectively, and will function as knobs that adjust the value of each parameter.
