Using a Foot Switch/Expression Pedal
If you connect a foot switch (such as the separately available
BOSS FS-5U or Roland DP-2) to the FOOT SW/EXP PEDAL
jack on the rear panel, you’ll be able to control some
functions using your foot.
fig.ConnectFootSW-e.eps
The expression pedal can be used when the insert effect is
turned on.
Depending on the effect settings, it will function as follows.
• If the WAH (p. 66) TYPE is set to “PEDAL,” the
expression pedal will function as a wah pedal.
• If the PITCH SHIFTER (p. 75) TYPE is set to “PEDAL,”
the expression pedal will function as a pitch shifter
pedal.
• If TYPE for WAH and TYPE for PITCH SHIFTER have
both been set to something other than “PEDAL,” the
expression pedal will function as a volume pedal.
Here’s how to assign the function of the foot switch.

By connecting any other expression pedals, you
