The effect options are indi-
cated with the selector LEDs and
changes in a cyclical, fashion each
time the selector is pressed.
Some of the effects have three
options that indicate the depth of
the effect. Flang 1 is the shal-
lowest version, Flang 2 is a more
pronounced effect and when both
Flang 1 and Flang 2 LEDs are
lit, you have selected the most

routed to the effect will change.
