Jump and Freeze using the optional E2R Remote Switch

To enable the 

JUMP

 and

 FREEZE

 functions of the Remote, power up the Echolution 

2 pedal while holding the 

ENGAGE 

footswitch.

JUMP

 modulates the delay line one octave each delay time by default. In order to 

access other intervals or set a second delay line, see the ‘Pitch Shifting’ section. JUMP can 

be toggled without the remote switch as well (see ‘Touch Switches: Delay Time Ranges’)

FREEZE

 creates a loop out of the material that is present in the delay line. This can be 

toggled on and off by pressing the 

FREEZE

 footswitch.

When FREEZE is active, the Tap footswitch becomes Loop Record.  When FREEZE is turned on, 

pressing the TAP footswitch begin recording a new loop.  A second press (within 10 seconds) 

will close the loop and begin playback. To overdub, turn off FREEZE to add new material 

and turn FREEZE back on when done. Hitting the TAP switch will clear any currently looped 

audio. To record a new loop, make sure FREEZE is turned on and then hit the TAP footswitch.

Once the 

JUMP

 and 

FREEZE

 remote functions are enabled, the Echolution 2 will 

remember this preference after it is powered down. To disable 

JUMP

 and 

FREEZE

 

and restore the preference for instant preset access, simply power power up the Echolution 

2 while holding the 

ENGAGE

 switch. 

JUMP

Each delay tap can be assigned a different pitch shift interval. The pitch shifting can be 

turned on and off at any point using the remote switch JUMP function or via MIDI. 

Once a pitch shift value has been selected JUMP is automatically enabled, so that users 

without the remote switch can enjoy pitch shift effects. When a pitch shift value has been 

selected, the JUMP function “latches” and the JUMP switch must pressed again to turn 

the pitch shifting off.  Pitch Shift values can be assigned, saved and recalled in any of 

the 60 presets.

E2 REMOTE SWITCH 

E2 REMOTE SWITCH 

To change the pitch shift value for the first delay tap, hold down both the Delay Time  

(Short / Med / Long) and Taps buttons and turn the Preset Encoder to select the desired 

pitch shift value.  After simultaneously pressing Delay Time and Taps, (while at least one 

of them is still held down), the 7-segment display will show a number or “-“.  This number 

represents the Pitch change, The intervals are displayed as a number and decimal point; 

each number represents a corresponding scale degree (5 = perfect fifth) with the decimal 

point indicating whether that interval is flatted (5. = flat five).

The change the pitch shift value for the second delay tap, hold down the Special FX  

(Pong / Halo) and Taps buttons and turn the preset encoder.

To change the VOLUME of the second delay tap, hold down the Special FX (Pong / Halo) and 

Taps buttons and turn the mix knob.

When one delay tap is turned on and a pitch shift value has been selected, JUMP with cause 

the delay to pitch shift.

When one delay tap is turned on and a pitch shift value has been selected for both taps, 

JUMP with cause the delay to alternate between the two assigned pitches (First Tap pitch for 

one cycle, Second Tap pitch for one cycle, etc).  The second tap will not be heard.

With two delay taps turned on, and a pitch shift value has been selected for only one of the 

taps, one delay will pitch shift and one will not.

With two delay taps turned on, and a pitch shift value has been selected for boths of the 

taps, each delay will pitch shift according to the selected intervals.

 

When FREEZE is activated, JUMP will only remain active for a single cycle, allowing material 

to change pitch one interval at a time.

When FREEZE is activated with a single tap but a pitch shift value has been set for both taps, 

the pitch shift value of the frozen delay will alternate with each press of the JUMP footswitch.
