Presets In–Depth This section explains how to edit preset parameters that are within menus. The edit process: 1) Access a parameter (menu item) using a button listed below, 2) Edit the parameter value using the DATA WHEEL, 3) Press EXIT, 4) Save the edited preset using the procedure on page 12, if desired.
Presets In–Depth Reverb – Edit Menu The parameters Time, Dwell, Diffusion and Tone apply to all 6 Reverb types. Reverb Time is always accessible to edit by pressing the Reverb EDIT button. The shaded parameters in the figure and table below, are accessible only in Advanced Edit Mode (see page 19).

Presets In–Depth Delay Effects – Edit Menu The parameters Delay Time and Feedback are always accessible to edit % Displayed values for delay times: by pressing the Delay EDIT button 1 or 2 times respectively. Multiply displayed value by 100 to calculate the approximate delay time in shaded parameters in the figure and tables below are available only in milliseconds.
Presets In–Depth Compressor Settings The function of the Compressor is to moderate signal level for a constant, steady output by boosting a fading signal level and limiting an excessive signal level. It is often used to increase the sustain of held notes in guitar solos, and to avoid overpowering any other instruments with rhythm guitar.
Cyber-Deluxe™ amplifier. Stereo Expander – Auxiliary Amplifier Set-Up Fully experience the stereo effects onboard the Cyber–Deluxe™ amplifier using the Stereo Expander feature. Any second guitar amp, such as a Fender ® Princeton ® 65 amplifier, can be used, see Figures 3a and 3b below.
Advanced Functions Utility Menu Functions All configuration settings in the Utility menu are global to the amp operating system (independent of the presets), with one exception. Expression Pedal parameter assignment is saved as part of each preset. Press the UTILITY button 1 or more times to access each of the Utility menu items shown in Figure 3c below.
Advanced Functions Expression Pedal – Parameter Assignment One Utility menu item, Expression Pedal - Parameter Assignment, is saved within each preset. Any of the parameters listed in step 2 below can be assigned to an expression pedal (optional) for remote control. This operation also assigns the same parameter to Continuous Controller #11 (for MIDI pedal control).
It provides hands-free selectability of presets, an Effects On/Off switch, a dual mode TAP/TUNER switch, a dedicated Volume % Fender® Cyber Foot Controller™ pedal, and a general-purpose Continuous Controller expression pedal. The MIDI device, (P/N 022-9100-000) Effects On/Off switch on the Cyber Foot Controller™ MIDI device will enable/disable the MOD.
Advanced Functions Continuous Controller Device Number Setting This menu item is used to select the Continuous Controller device number that the Continuous Controller device uses. 1) Press UTILITY repeatedly until ”CC” is displayed (the display will then alternate between “CC” and the current setting). 2) Select the desired device number with the DATA WHEEL.
Advanced Functions 2) Select the desired ID number with the DATA WHEEL. The range of values is 17—32 and Omni (“On”). The default setting is Omni (“On”). In Omni mode, the amplifier receives SysEx messages from all Cyber-Deluxe™ amplifier family devices on the network. In Omni mode, if the amplifier transmits a SysEx message, then any receiving Cyber-Deluxe™...
Advanced Functions Dump Utilities This menu item is used to perform data transfer of Utility information using the MIDI Dump convention. 1) Press UTILITY repeatedly until “dU” is displayed. 2) Press TAP to execute the Utility dump.
