Emulation:
This eight position switch selects which effect model the pedal will use.
Patch:
A dual purpose control in conjunction with the Emulation switch. The first five emulations use this control as a five
position selector using the A-B-C-E-F scale. The remaining three emulations use this control as a standard variable using
the 0-10 scale.
Feedback:
This controls the amount echo repeats of the echo emulations and controls the tremolo depth on the
Reverb/Tremolo emulation.
Dry/Wet:
Used to control the balance of the dry and effect signals of the echo emulations or the reverb level on the
Reverb/Tremolo emulation.
Drive:
The drive mini control can be used to adjust the amount of harmonic content in the signal and in conjunction
with the internal drive trim can be used to balance the signal levels for different guitars and harmonic levels in the signal.
NOTE – This is not an ‘overdrive’ control.

So what exactly do the Emulation and Patch switch combinations do?
There are 8 Emulations to select from as outlined in the table above numbered from 1-8. Emulations 1-5 use the patch
selections A-F from the patch knob which selects different combinations of playback heads. Using Program 1 which is the
Meazzi Echomatic 1 Model J (E1J) the following table shows the delay time of each head, the output level of the heads
and when selecting A-F which heads are being used.
