Expression Configuration (TRS/MIDI)
Upon every power up, the LEDʼs will blink to indicate which
Expression Configuration is currently enabled.
1] Bypass LED - Blinking 3 times = External Favorite Mode
2] Tap LED - Blinking 3 times = Expression Mode
3] Center LED - Blinking = MIDI Mode. For MIDI Mode,
the number of blinks indicates the current MIDI Input Channel
selected.
NOTE: If none of the expression options are used, we recommend
powering on the pedal while holding the TAP footswitch for a few
seconds and then releasing. This will disable all below expression
options and ensure correct operation if nothing is plugged into
the TRS expression jack.
1] EXPRESSION MODE: This mode allows you to control either
the SPEED or DEPTH parameter using an external expression
pedal / knob.
TO SET UP EXPRESSION MODE:
a] Power up the pedal while holding the TAP footswitch
b] Continue to hold the TAP footswitch and turn the speed
or depth knob to configure that knob for external control.
c] The center LED will flash while turning the knobs to
indicate the change.
d] Release the TAP footswitch to begin normal operation
in EXPRESSION MODE.
2] EXTERNAL FAVORITE MODE: This mode allows you to access
your onboard FAVORITE setting remotely with an external switch.
TO SET UP EXTERNAL FAVORITE MODE:
a] Power up the pedal while holding the BYPASS
footswitch.
b] Hold the BYPASS footswitch for a few seconds (but
less than 5 seconds - see DETERMINE CURRENT
FIRMWARE VERSION section for more details).
c] Release the BYPASS footswitch to begin normal
operation in EXTERNAL FAVORITE MODE.
NOTE: This mode disables access of the onboard
FAVORITE by holding the BYPASS switch.
3] MIDI MODE: This mode allows you to control any parameter,
access your FAVORITE setting as well as ADDITIONAL presets
using an external MIDI controller.
TO SET UP MIDI MODE:
a] Power up the pedal while holding the TAP AND
BYPASS footswitches. Hold for a few seconds.
b] Release to begin operation in MIDI MODE.
NOTE: For full details on MIDI operation, please see the
corresponding MIDI manual.
RAMPING INSTRUCTIONS
Holding the TAP footswitch will initiate a tempo / speed
ramping feature. This is indicated by the center LED lighting
up. This feature is configurable, as described below.
The speed of the ramping, or how quickly the speed increases
/ decreases can be adjusted by changing the SPEED
knob WHILE holding the TAP footswitch (while actively ramping).
The center LED will blink to indicate that a change was received.
There are 3 Different MODES of ramping that can be
configured. These are selected by changing the center toggle
switch in the direction referenced below WHILE holding the TAP
footswitch (while actively ramping). The center LED will blink to
indicate that a change was received.
NOTE: If the toggle is already in the position that you are trying
to set it to, you will need to flip it off that position and back
again while holding the TAP footswitch to indicate a
configuration change and register the new mode.
RAMP MODES:
1] Toggle Switch left: The modulation speed will continually
SLOW DOWN as long as the TAP footswitch is held down. Once
the TAP footswitch is released, the speed will return to where it
was before ramping was initiated.
