MIDI Configuration
SAVING PRESETS WITH MIDI:
- To save additional presets with MIDI you simply send a MIDI Program Change message while you are
holding down both the TAP and BYPASS footswitches. This setting will be saved to the location of the
Program Change message you sent.
PROCEDURE:
1. Create a sound you would like to save.
2. Hold both the TAP and BYPASS footswitches to initiate saving.
3. While continuing to hole the TAP and BYPASS footswitches, send a Program Change message of 25 to
this pedal.
4. The center LED will blink to indicate the save.
5. Now release the TAP and BYPASS footswitches and your new preset has been saved to location 25.
NOTE: If no MIDI Program Change message is received while the footswitches are held and then you
release. The preset will be saved to the onboard FAVORITE preset.
SETTING THE MIDI INPUT CHANNEL:
- This pedal comes set to MIDI channel 1 by default. This can be changed on power up if needed. Simply
follow the SOFTWARE instructions above for setting up MIDI mode. While you are holding the TAP and
BYPASS footswitches on power up, the pedal is “listening” for incoming MIDI messages.
- If it receives a MIDI message while the footswitches are being held during this time, it will set the MIDI
input channel to the channel of the last MIDI message it receives. You can then release the footswitches
to begin normal operation. Your channel change will be retained until you change it again.
RECALLING PRESETS WITH MIDI:
- Presets on this pedal can be activated by sending MIDI Program Change messages. This pedal supports
50 presets in total. One onboard FAVORITE and 49 additional presets through MIDI.
- Program Change message 0 will put the pedal into “LIVE” mode and reflect the current state of all the
knobs and switches as in normal operation.
- Program Change message 1 will activate the built-in / onboard FAVORITE preset that is typically
accessed by holding the BYPASS footswitch.
- Program Change messages 2 – 50 will activate those particular presets. Assuming a preset has been
saved to that location. No factory presets are provided other than the default preset saved in the
FAVORITE location.
