Changing the Patch Call Method 

In the factory default condition, patches are switched as soon as you make the selection,
resulting in an immediate change in the sound. If you want to change to a distant patch, all
the intermediate patches will briefly change the sound, which may not be desirable,
especially during a performance. In such a case, you can change to the preselect method. 

When the preselect method is enabled, you first select the desired patch, but the sound does
not change until confirmed by you. 

Using the Pedal to Control an Effect

You can use the expression pedal of the 707II to control the parameter, on/off status, or
volume level of a specific effect. The pedal adjustment range can be memorized individually
for a patch. 

1.

Select a patch in play mode. 

2.

Use the [PEDAL] key to select the
module/effect type to be controlled
with the expression pedal. 

Each push of the [PEDAL] key cycles through
the [PEDAL] LEDs as shown below. 

The [PEDAL] LEDs indicate the module/effect
type assigned to the pedal. The meaning of the
LEDs is explained below. 

WAH 

The expression pedal functions as a pedal wah.
The effect type P-WAH (pedal wah) of the
MODULATION module is assigned to the
pedal, and the FREQ parameter can be adjusted.
Even if another effect type is currently selected
for the MODULATION module, the effect type
is temporarily switched to P-WAH. 

PITCH 

The expression pedal functions as a pitch
shifter. The effect type P-PIT (pedal pitch) of
the MODULATION module is assigned to the
pedal, and pitch can be adjusted. Even if another
effect type is currently selected for the

Lit 

Out

(Pedal is inactive)
