WAH/EFX1 module
X-Wah
This effect allows cross-fading of original sound and effect sound (VOX type wah), using the pedal. Try assigning the
vertical direction of the Z-pedal (P2V1 - P2V4) to the "Frequency" parameter and the horizontal direction (P2H1 - P2H4)
to the "X-Fade" parameter.

Z-Oscillator
This oscillator allows changing its frequency by tracking the pitch of the guitar signal or with the pedal. A portamento
and vibrato effect can also be added to the oscillator signal.
To have the oscillator frequency track the guitar pitch, set the "Frequency" parameter to "A-Bf" (before PRE-AMP module) or
"A-Af" (after PRE-AMP module). In this case, try assigning the vertical direction of the Z-pedal (P2V1 - P2V4) to the "Balance"
parameter and the horizontal direction (P2H1 - P2H4) to the "Portament" or "Vibrato" parameter.
To control the oscillator frequency with the pedal, set the "Frequency" parameter to 0 - 60 (this becomes the reference
frequency) and assign the vertical direction of the Z-pedal to the "Frequency" parameter and the horizontal direction to
the "Balance" parameter.

Operating Dedicated Effects With the Z-Pedal
MOD/EFX2 module
Z-Echo
This effect allows changing the echo pitch and duration by controlling the "Time" parameter with the pedal. Try
assigning the vertical direction of the Z-pedal (P2V1 - P2V4) to the "Time" parameter and the horizontal direction (P2H1
- P2H4) to the "FeedBack" or "Mix" parameter.

X-Flanger
This effect allows cross-fading of original sound and effect sound (Flanger), using the pedal. Try assigning the vertical
direction of the Z-pedal (P2V1 - P2V4) to the "Rate" parameter and the horizontal direction (P2H1 - P2H4) to the "X-

Z-Step
This is a step effect which allows shifting the emphasized frequency up or down, using the pedal. If you assign the
"Frequency" parameter to the pedal, the emphasized frequency will change in discrete steps, until the target frequency
is reached.
Try assigning the vertical direction of the Z-pedal (P2V1 - P2V4) to the "Frequency" parameter and the horizontal
direction (P2H1 - P2H4) to the "Mix" parameter.

Z-Pitch
This is a pitch shifter that allows setting a different pitch shift amount in the vertical and the horizontal direction of the
Z-pedal.
Try assigning the vertical direction of the Z-pedal (P2V1 - P2V4) to the "PdlPosi V" parameter and the horizontal
direction (P2H1 - P2H4) to the "PdlPosi H" parameter.
The parameters are the same as for Z-MonoPitch.
Z-MonoPitch
This is a monophonic pitch shifter (for single-note playing) that allows setting a different pitch shift amount in the
vertical and the horizontal direction of the Z-pedal.
Try assigning the vertical direction of the Z-pedal (P2V1 - P2V4) to the "PdlPosi V" parameter and the horizontal
direction (P2H1 - P2H4) to the "PdlPosi H" parameter.

Besides the effects described in the manual, the WAH/EFX1, MOD/EFX2, and REVERB modules of the G9.2tt contain a
number of special effect types that are designed to make best use of the capabilities offered by expression pedal 2 (Z-pedal).
These effect types are described below.
Another additional function is the "ARRM BPM" parameter that can be assigned to an expression pedal. When this is done, the
reference tempo for the ARRM function (0 - 250) can be controlled with the pedal. (The patch specific tempo setting is not
affected.)
