COSM GUITAR

PHASE
When pickups FRONT and REAR are mixed, this setting determines the phase of pickup REAR relative to pickup FRONT. IN: It will have the same phase as pickup FRONT. OUT: It will be mixed in opposite phase. This is valid only when two pickups are being used. * The phase setting that is part of the pickup FRONT parameters is the same as the corresponding parameter for pickup REAR. Modifying one of them will cause the other parameter to change correspondingly.

PICKUP
This is the switch that selects between the two pickups. REAR: Use the rear pickup. C+R: Use both center and rear pickups. CENTER: Use the center pickup. F+C: Use both front and center pickups. FRONT: Use the front pickup. F+R: Use both front and rear pickups.

POSITION [5�320 mm]
Specifies the distance from the bridge at which the pickup is placed. Larger values will produce the effect of the pickup being further from the bridge. * If the Pickup Type has been set to �PIEZO� or �ACOUSTIC� the POSITION setting will not be available.

TONE [-50�+50]
Adjusts the tone of the pickup. Positive (+) values will boost the high range, and negative (-) values will attenuate it.

LEVEL [0�100]
Sets the volume of the pickup. With a setting of 0, there will be no sound.

ANGLE [-315�+315 mm]
This simulates the angle of the pickup relative to the strings. The setting indicates the distance from the POSITION setting that the sixth string will be located. With positive (+) settings, the sixth string will be further from the bridge. With negative (-) values, the sixth string will be closer to the bridge. With a setting of 0, the pickup will be perpendicular with the strings.

TYPE
Selects the type of pickup. SINGLE: Single-coil pickup. DOUBLE: Double-coil pickup. ACOUSTIC: A hypothetical pickup ideal for picking up the sound of an acoustic guitar. PIEZO: Piezo pickup. MIC: A hypothetical mic ideal for picking up the sound of an acoustic guitar. * If you have COSM GUITAR TYPE set to �ACOUSTIC,� the �SINGLE,� �DOUBLE,� and �ACOUSTIC� settings then become unavailable. * This cannot be set to �MIC� if anything other than �ACOUSTIC� is selected for the COSM GUITAR TYPE setting.

ANGLE

* If �PIEZO� or �ACOUSTIC� is selected as the pickup type, the Angle setting will not be available. * Angle settings which would exceed the range of the Position setting (5�320 mm) will have no effect. For example, if the Position is set to 100 mm, and valid range of the Angle setting will be -95�+220 mm.
