I gotta ask, after rolling my eyes over at TOP, when someone implied it was too hard to do, to bother with it at a gig.
How do you do this, on the unit itself?
And how did you learn to do it?
On the Axe III:
Double tap D button brings up Delay. Page over (see the top of the screen?) until you're on the Mix Page.
Navigate to Mix Knob if it's not already highlighted, adjust with big knob or A knob.
Hit Store Store Enter if you want to save the changes, or
Hit EXIT if you want the preset to revert to its previous state when you switch to a different one.
(I'm aware you can set up shortcuts, but that's not what I'm after in this context. Just looking to compare the most straightforward method to do this example of something you may very well need to do at a gig.)
I learned about the double tap options when they were introduced, but in fairness to the onboard UI not being intuitive, this is something that should be included in the manual as a "Tip", somewhere in the first few pages. Maybe even add a section that discusses oft-used actions, LIKE EDITING EFFECTS, and how they can be done quickly. (This is assuming that double-tap option hasn't been added in a more recent manual than the one I have, because after skimming through, I couldn't find it in the preset section.)
Edit: I found it, way down in the back of the manual, under Additional Topics. This IS a problem with Fractal- they add features via FW updates, but then they add the instructions as to how to use them as an "addendum" of sorts, instead of inserting that new info where it belongs.
And I learned how to get around the pages and such by using the unit and skimming the manual (not reading the entire thing.)
I'm genuinely curious how this is done on other modelers.
