Precautions

• Avoid using the DG60FX-112 in the following locations to prevent possible damage:

• In direct sunlight or next to heating equipment.

• In extremely cold or hot locations.

• Locations exposed to high humidity or excessive dust.

• Locations subject to strong shocks or vibration.

• Before making any connections, make sure that the power is switched OFF on the DG60FX-112

and any external devices.

• To protect speakers from possible damage, always set the OUTPUT knob to “0” before switching

the power ON/OFF.

• When connecting a speaker to this unit, make sure that the power is switched OFF first.

• Do not apply excessive force to the switches, knobs and controls.

• The DG60FX-112 is a precision device. Handle it with care and avoid dropping or jarring it.

• Operating temperatures will rise during use. Make sure the DG60FX-112 is used in a well-venti-

lated are.

• For safety, always remove the power plug from the AC wall outlet if there is any danger of light-

ning striking in your area.

• Keep the DG60FX-112 away from neon signs or fluorescent lighting to prevent noise pickup.

• To prevent damage and possibly electrical shock, never open the case and tamper with the

internal circuitry.

• Never use benzene, thinner or other volatile liquids for cleaning, as these chemicals may cause

damage or discoloration to the finish. Always use a dry, soft cloth to wipe off dust and dirt.

About the Backup Battery

A backup battery (lithium battery) is used to keep internal data (settings) from being lost, even when

the power cord is unplugged. Internal data will be lost when battery power is depleted, so it is recom-

mended that data be stored to an external data recorder such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3

(→ page 24), or keep records of settings in memo form. The average battery life span is about 3

years. When replacement becomes necessary contact the music store where the unit was pur-

chased, or a qualified service representative, to perform the replacement.

• Do not attempt to replace the backup battery by yourself.

• Keep the backup battery out of reach of children.

• “E5” appears in the display when the battery becomes depleted. Internal data may be lost.

• Data may be lost if the unit is improperly handled or if repairs are performed.

Using the DG60FX-112

First, connect a guitar to the DG60FX-112 and try some sounds.

■ Produce Sound

1. Before connecting, turn off the power on the

DG60FX-112 and connect a guitar to either the

LOW or HIGH INPUT jack.

Note: When the patch’s number is shown on the

display the device is in a condition called the

PLAY MODE. When in the PLAY MODE, it is

possible to select a patch and use the knobs

or buttons to change settings to play.

High output guitars should be connected to the

jack labeled LOW while low output guitars should

be connected to the jack labeled HIGH.

For now use this patch to try and produce some

sound.

4. Play a chord on the guitar and rotate the OUT-

PUT knob to the right to control the volume.

2. After rotating the OUTPUT knob to the “0” posi-

tion, turn the POWER switch (POWER) to ON

* If the peak indicator continuously lights while playing the

guitar, the level of the guitar’s input signal is too high. Either

use the INPUT jack labeled LOW or reduce the guitar’s out-

put (volume).

(

Turning the POWER switch ON when the OUTPUT

knob is turned up may result in damage to devices

such as amplifier, speaker, headphone, etc., or

cause unexpected accidents like damage to your

hearing due to a high volume setting.

3. A 3-digit number such as “011” will appear on

the display.

The numbers (Group number: 0, Bank number:

1, Patch number: 1) refer to the patch that is

currently selected.

Using the DG60FX-112

■ Try Changing the Settings

Use the knobs or buttons on the panel to create your own original tone.

■ Try creating your own sound

The AMP SELECT switch functions in the same

manner. When the knob is rotated, the patch’s

selected amp type will flash on the display. Ro-

tate the knob to the position of the amp type

indicated in the display and then select an amp

type you want to use.

Knob positions do not represent the current patch’s

value settings so the knob must be aligned with its

setting value (editable condition) in order to make

changes to the value. For this reason, the following

rules apply when a knob is moved.

•

Rotate a knob, if the [UP] lamp flashes, rotate the

knob to the right (toward 10). If the [DOWN] lamp

flashes, rotate the knob to the left (toward 0).

At this time, that patch’s data value (the value

set in the patch of the knob you are turning) will

flash on the display.

The OUTPUT knob and MASTER knob

Either knob can be used to change the volume.

However, the MASTER knob setting is included with

the patch data while the OUTPUT knob setting is

not. Use the MASTER knob to set the volume of

each patch and use the OUTPUT knob to set the

volume as heard from the speaker.

* As long as the value is flashing on the display, the tone and

value will not change when the knob is rotated.

■ Change the Effect Setting

Try switching the each of the effect blocks ON/OFF

or try changing the effect. Also, try using the knobs

for each of the effects to change the character of

the effect.

The DG60FX-112’s effects section is divided into

the following 4 blocks,

• Continue rotating the knob in the previously de-

scribed direction and the patch’s data value

shown in the display as well as the [UP]/[DOWN]

lamp will stop flashing and indicate the actual

value corresponding to the knob’s position.

* After you stop moving the knob, the value will be displayed

for about 2 more seconds after which it will return to the

normal display.

• Compressor (COMP)

• Modulation (CHORUS/FLANGER/PHASER/

ROTARY/TREMOLO)

• Delay (DELAY/TAPE ECHO)

• Reverb (SPRING/HALL/PLATE)

• Press the corresponding button to select the ef-

fect you want to use (the lamp will light). How-

ever, only one effect per block can be used at a

time. Also, if a button that is lit (ON) is pressed,

the light will go off and the effect in that block will

be switched (OFF).

* Even if only one setting value is changed, the [MANUAL]

lamp will flash to indicate that the patch’s data has changed.

When settings for all knobs (with the exception of OUT-

PUT) have changed, the [MANUAL] lamp will light.

• Once the knob is in an editable condition (in

which the setting’s value can be changed), turn-

ing the knob will result in the value shown in the

display changing in regards to the knob’s posi-

tion and a relative change in the tone.

All knobs can be used to set the parameters of

the effect selected in the block.

* Refer to [Effect Functions and Parameters] (page 19) for more

information on each effect’s function or knob’s setting.

* The operation of each knob follows the same rules as the pre-

amplifier section.

The previously described rules apply to all knobs

except the OUTPUT knob.

Using the DG60FX-112

■ Set the Speaker Simulator

When listening through a pair of headphones, or

connected directly via a line to a mixer or recorder,

the speaker simulator can be used to add the “live”

characteristics of a speaker to the tone output of

the DG60FX-112.

When another patch is selected, any set-

tings you have altered will revert to their

original settings.

* The speaker simulator does have an effect on the sound pro-

duced by the main speaker. When the main speaker is used,

we recommend that the speaker simulator be switched OFF.

Effect Functions and Parameters

■ FLANGER

Creates a sound resembling a jet.

Compressor

■ Comp (Compressor)

• SPEED knob

Controlling the input signal (peak) this effect keeps

the maximum level constrained to the level set with

the knob.

Sets the speed at which the pitch will vibrate.

• DEPTH knob

Sets the depth at which the pitch will vibrate.

• SPEED knob + [FLANGER]

Sets the delay time.

• COMP knob

Rotate the knob to the right to increase the depth

of the compression.

• DEPTH knob + [FLANGER]

Sets the feedback level.

When set to “0.0” it will have no effect.

■ PHASER

This changes the cyclical phase to give the sound a

wave like motion.

Modulation Effects

• SPEED knob

Sets the speed at which the phase changes.

• DEPTH knob

There are five modulation effects, CHORUS,

FLANGER, PHASER, ROTARY and TREMOLO.

• The two knobs controlling modulation param-

eters are double duty knobs. As is, they control

speed and depth of the selected effect but hold-

ing the currently selected effect's button while

turning the knob can access a second function

for each knob.

Sets the depth of the phase.

• SPEED knob + [PHASER]

Sets the feedback level.

• DEPTH knob + [PHASER]

Sets the mix level of the phase effect.

■ ROTARY (Rotary Speaker)

This effect simulates a two-way rotary speaker.

• Secondary function parameters are also stored

with the patch’s data. When a patch is selected,

the secondary parameter settings that are stored

in the patch’s data will be assigned to the patch.

• When a different modulation effect is selected

from the modulation effect block, the previous

effect's settings will be used for the SPEED and

DEPTH knob’s individual parameter values.

Secondary parameter values are set to the value

most recently used for the selected effect. (Sec-

ondary parameter values are always stored in

the unit with individual effects.)

• SPEED knob

Sets the rotation speed of the low frequency

speaker.

• DEPTH knob

Sets the rotation speed of the high frequency

speaker.

• SPEED knob + [ROTARY]

Sets the angle at which the left and right micro-

phones are set in relation to the speaker. A set-

ting of “0” will produce a monaural sound while

a setting of “10.0” will produce a microphone

placement of 180 degrees.

• To return the secondary parameter’s setting to

its factory default value, hold that effect’s button

until the five modulation effect lamps are lit.

• DEPTH knob + [ROTARY]

Sets the volume balance between the high fre-

quency speaker and low frequency speaker.

■ CHORUS

This is a typical chorus effect.

■ TREMOLO

• SPEED knob

Sets the speed at which the pitch will vibrate.

• DEPTH knob

Sets the depth at which the pitch will vibrate.

• SPEED knob + [CHORUS]

Sets the delay time.

This effect changes the volume cyclically.

Effect Functions and Parameters

• SPEED knob + [TREMOLO]

• FEEDBACK knob

Sets the phase difference between the left and

right sounds. From 0 degrees to 360 degrees

(0.0-10.0). Set to “5” the knob works like a ste-

reo pan pot.

Sets the number of times the effect will repeat.

* Too high of a setting may result in an uncontrolled oscilla-

tion of sound. Please use caution.

• LEVEL knob

• DEPTH knob + [TREMOLO]

Controls the volume of the source signal into the

Tape Echo circuit.

* If the same Tape Echo setting is switched from a patch us-

ing a LEVEL other than “0” to a patch using a LEVEL of

“0”, the remaining Tape Echo will be leftover. Of course,

the sound of the new patch will not be affected by the Tape

Echo.

Sets the wave shape of the tremolo. A setting of

“0.0” produces a triangular wave. Rotate the knob

to the right to change the shape to a trapezoid

with its sharpness increasing the more the knob

is turned.

Delay Effects

Reverb Effects

There are two effects, DELAY and TAPE ECHO.

There are three types of digital reverb, SPRING,

HALL and PLATE.

■ DELAY

This is a digital delay effect. The sound played will

be repeated after a determined pause.

■ SPRING (Spring Reverb)

This effect simulates the spring reverb of a vintage

guitar amp.

• TIME knob

Sets the delay time (from the time or the original

sound to the time of the delay).

• REVERB knob

Controls the volume of the source signal into the

Reverb circuit.

When the delay effect is used, it is possible

to set theTIME parameter (delay time) by tap-

ping on the BANK switch.Tap a few times on

the BANK switch in the tempo you want to

set the delay to. The interval in which the

switch was tapped will be set in theTIME pa-

rameter.

■ HALL (Hall Reverb)

This effect simulates the reverb of a hall.

• REVERB knob

Controls the volume of the source signal into the

Reverb circuit.

• FEEDBACK knob

Sets the number of times the effect will repeat.

* Too high of a setting may result in an uncontrolled oscilla-

tion of sound. Please use caution.

■ PLATE (Plate Reverb)

This effect simulates the reverb of a metal plate.

• LEVEL knob

Controls the volume of the source signal into the

Delay circuit.

* If the same Delay setting is switched from a patch using a

LEVEL other than “0” to a patch using a LEVEL of “0”,

the remaining Delay will be leftover. Of course, the sound

of the new patch will not be affected by the delay.

• REVERB knob

Controls the volume of the source signal into the

Reverb circuit.

* If the same Reverb type is switched from a patch using a

LEVEL other than “0” to a patch using a LEVEL of “0”,

the remaining Reverb will be leftover. Of course, the sound

of the new patch will not be affected by the Reverb.

■ TAPE ECHO

A digital simulation that provides an realistic repro-

duction of the classic tape echo.

• TIME Knob

Sets the delay time (from the time of the original

sound to the time of the delay).

* Just as in the DELAY effect, tapping on the BANK switch

can set the TIME (Delay Time) parameter.

■ About the MIDI Bulk In

This operation is used to return data stored in an

external MIDI device such as the YAMAHA MDF3,

etc., to the DG60FX-112.

The following settings for "Set the External

Control Number" through "Set the Parameter’s

MaximumValue" can be set only when the Ex-

ternal Control’s Operating Mode is set to

"GLb".

Use a MIDI cable to connect the MIDI OUT jack on

the external MIDI device to the DG60FX-112’s MIDI

IN jack.

When Bulk Out data is sent from the external de-

vice, the DG60FX-112 will receive the bulk data.

* Refer to the [External Control Settings] section (page 21)

for more information on each of the settings.

* Use the DG60FX-112’s Play Mode to receive MIDI Bulk In

data.

When the MIDI Bulk In is carried out, the con-

tents of the patches in the USER AREA will

be rewritten.
