NOTE
– If a knob is assigned to the expression pedal, the clock display will not respond to it as usual. Moving the knob
reveals the current parameter value but will not change it.
Individual Parameter Control
- Turning It Off
Hold down both style buttons for 2 seconds; the chorus and delay on/off lights will blink.
If any knobs are assigned to the expression pedal, the corresponding style lights will blink.
A press of the Chorus Style button cancels any Chorus knob assignment to the expression pedal and the style lights turn off.
Press the Delay Style button to cancel any Delay knob assignments to the expression pedal. The Delay style lights turn off.
Hold down both style buttons for 2 seconds and the chorus and delay on/off lights will stop blinking. The six style lights
return to showing which styles are selected.
Compatible Expression Pedals
Purchase an expression pedal that uses a stereo cable (TRS) such as the Roland EV5 & EV7, Korg EXP2, or BOSS FV-500L &
FV-500H. If the pedal does not come with a stereo cable then you will need to purchase one that has a TRS (tip/ring/sleeve)
plug on both ends.
NOTE
- Expression pedals that use a mono cable (TS) will not work with your E-155.
Using A Volume Pedal As An Expression Pedal
Virtually any passive volume pedal can be used as an expression pedal with your E-155.
NOTE
- An “insert cable” is required if you are using a volume pedal.
Insert cables have a TRS plug on one end and 2 mono plugs on the other end. The TRS end plugs into your E-155 and the 2
mono plugs connect to your volume pedal. A few cables that should work fine are Hosa STP201RT, Horizon HYS-P ¼”, Live
Wire TRS(M)-Dual ¼" and Pro Co IPBQ2Q3 or IPBQ2Q5.
NOTE
– If your volume pedal doesn’t work properly, swap the 2 plugs at the volume pedal.
7. AirMix™ Output
This is a cool new way to experience effects. If your guitar is plugged into the right input jack and both output jacks are used,
the dry signal comes out the right output jack and the affected signal comes out the left. The two signals blend in the air to
create a rich sound. This works for both chorus and delay.
Since it requires a stereo amplifier rig (two combo amps will do), it may not be for everyone, but it can be very cool sounding.
Try it out if you have the amps; you might find your new sound.
8. Pedal Link™ System
This and other dual function Boomerang® pedals can be linked using an optional Boomerang® Pedal Link™ cable so that
storing or recalling a preset on one will store or recall it on all pedals. Two or more Boomerang® pedals can be linked to form a
complete effects system using the two identical Pedal Link™ connectors on the rear panel.
9. Front Panel
Most of the front panel bells and whistles have been described previously.
Clip Light
The Clip light, to the right of the Boomerang® logo, indicates signal level. It’s OK if it occasionally turns on, but if it is on
most of the time then your input signal is too hot. The pedal will not be harmed but your signal may sound distorted. If the
sound is good to you then don’t worry about it. Let your ears make the final decision.
10. Rear Panel
Power Connector
The included power supply plugs in here. Any power supply that has the following output specs will work: 9-10 volt, AC or
DC, positive or negative tip. We try to make it easy for you.
Signal Connections - ¼” phone jacks
There are two input and two output jacks. For basic mono use, plug your instrument into the left input and connect your
amp to the left output.
