Tutorial
Tempo LED blinks in time with the tempo of your strumming, and the display
shows
G
. (Minor keys are indicated by a dash after the note in the display.)
Note
: The outputs are muted while setting key and tempo by strumming.
Set the Repeat Pattern by Strumming (Smart Strum)
Turn the Time Pattern Knob to the last position to select the Strum pattern (
1.
Str
).
Press and hold the right footswitch. The display briefly shows the currently

stored key and flashes

while you hold down the footswitch.
Strum multi-tap time pattern. Your first strum marks the start of the delay pattern,
3.
and each subsequent strum automatically creates a delay (tap) at that time. You
can strum up to seven times in order to set all six delay taps. You can also set
a pattern by playing two or more repeats of the pattern while holding down the
footswitch. Whenever more than seven strums are detected, Smart Strum will
organize the strums into repeated groups and use this for the pattern.
Release the right footswitch. If a consistent pattern was detected, the display will

briefly show
G
ood
. If a consistent pattern could not be found, the display will
briefly show
????
and the existing pattern will not be changed.
Note
: When you set a repeat pattern with Smart Strum, you also set the tempo. The
tempo is the time between the first strum and the last strum in the resulting pattern.
The outputs are also muted when using Smart Strum.
Add a Pitch-Shifted Voice
Turn the Voicing knob one click to the right. The current voicing pattern will ap-

pear briefly in the display. Using this tutorial, it should read

.
Once the display shows the delay time again (

0
.
500
for instance), turn the Voic-
ing knob four clicks to the right. The display should briefly show
U H
, then go
back to showing the delay time.
Play a single note in the key of G major. Notice how some of the repeats are

slightly higher than the original note, and how they’re in harmony.
Adjust the Repeats
Turn the Repeats knob to the 1 o’clock position.

Play a single note and notice how much longer the repeats last.
