OOTSWITCH CONTROLS
Here you can define the polarity of the Footswitches and assign them a function.
The possibility of programming the polarity of the footswitches allows you to use
footswitches of other manufacturers available on the market.
The footswitch polarity can be set either to Normally Open (N.O., open at rest) or
Normally Closed (N.C., closed at rest).
The footswitches produced by Generalmusic are N.C footswitches.
