TAP TEMPO MODE

The STINGRAY’s LFO rate can also be adjusted “on-the-fly” via TAP TEMPO. 

To enter TAP TEMPO mode, put the pedal into bypass, then press and hold the 

footswitch (A or B), to which you would like TAP TEMPO applied.  When the 

preset LED opposite the footswitch being held starts to blink, the pedal is in 

TAP TEMPO mode.  The footswitch below the blinking LED now controls the 

LFO rate.  Press the footswitch at least two times in rhythm to set a new LFO 

rate.  The LFO rate is reflected in the blinking LED – the time between each 

blink represents one cycle of the LFO.  Follow the same procedure to 

disengage TAP TEMPO.  The footswitch that TAP TEMPO is applied to, is also 

the preset it is saved to.  When recalled, the speed of the TAP TEMPO will 

default to the last used setting.

Controls: Footswitches 

 

CONTROLS: FOOTSWITCHES

There are two footswitches on the STINGRAY.  The left footswitch 

corresponds to preset 1, and the right footswitch corresponds to preset 

2.  Pressing either of the footswitches will engages the respective 

preset.  Pressing the same footswitch again puts the pedal back into 

bypass mode.  Pressing the other footswitch engages the other preset 

without going into bypass.  The illumination of the LEDs labeled “1” and 

“2” indicates which preset is currently enabled.  While the pedal is in 

bypass mode both LEDs remain off.  

When a preset is enabled and any sort of adjustment is made, the 

indicator LED for that preset will begin to blink, showing that the preset 

has been edited.  After a preset has been edited, save it by pressing and 

holding either footswitch.  The corresponding LED will blink quickly to 

indicate that the preset has been saved.  Once changes are saved, the 

LED will be lit solidly (not blinking).    An edited preset can be saved to 

either of the two preset locations.  For example, if preset 1 has been 

selected and edited, it can be saved to preset location 2 by pressing and 

holding the right footswitch. 

Note:

 Changes made to a preset will be lost if you go into bypass or 

switch to another preset without saving.
