Useful Functions

Using the Memories
You can use the memory feature to store the current settings of the knobs, in three different sets of knob configurations for each amp type.
BOSS Dual Cube Bass LX Bass Amplifier 08

Storing the Knob Settings to Memory

Here’s how to store the current knob positions to memory.

  1. Press the [MEMORY] button to select the memory where the settings are to be stored.
    Each press of the button cycles through the memory numbers (green red orange unlit green), and the LED color changes accordingly. Button color or state| Explanation
    ---|---
    Unlit (off)| The amp produces sound using the current knob settings.
    Green (memory 1)| The amp produces sound using the knob positions (settings) stored in memory.
    Red (memory 2)
    Orange (memory 3)
  2.  Turn the knob to the setting you like.
  3. Hold down the [MEMORY] button for several seconds. The [MEMORY] button blinks.

Once the settings are stored, the [MEMORY] button lights up continuously.
NOTE

  •  Once you store settings in a memory, any existing settings that were stored in that memory are lost.
  •  The settings you store can be lost if you take the unit in for repair or due to equipment failure, incorrect operations or other such causes. To avoid the nuisance of losing your data, back up the important data you’ve stored in the unit, or write the settings down by hand. You can use the dedicated software (p. 4) or an app on your mobile device (p. 9) to back up the settings stored on this unit.

Recalling a Memory
Here’s how to recall the knob settings that are stored in memory.

  1. Turn the [AMP TYPE] knob to select the amp type.

This changes the unit’s knob settings to the settings stored in the memory you selected.

  •  Note that the volume may change abruptly when switching between memories, depending on the settings stored in the memories.

MEMO
If you move a knob after recalling a memory, the setting or value for that knob changes to the knob’s current position. Once the knob’s actual position matches the position that’s stored in memory, the [MEMORY] button immediately goes dark.
Using the Rhythm Guide
The rhythm guide built into this amp features drum and percussion rhythm patterns that are useful when you’re practicing by yourself. Set this to the pattern you like when you practice, or use it as a metronome.
