After the calibration procedure is necessary to check again the extreme values of the pedal.
Warning! Expression pedals sockets in TB-12 (5) have a non-standard polarity. We recommend using an
expression pedal with polarity switcher, such as Mission Engineering SP-1R and M-Audio EX-P. When using
a volume pedal polarity determined by turning the insert-cable to IN and OUT sockets of the pedal.
External Bank Switcher
By default, LOAD button is used to load the controller banks. You can always load a bank from the
controller menu. This does not depend on the Bank sw mode submenu in Buttons setup. However, you
can choose two additional modes of bank switching in Bank sw mode submenu. These modes are:
controller buttons (if BNKup and BNKdown commands are assigned to them) and external pedals.
An external bank switcher pedal is connected to Exp.P1 jack (instead of the first expression pedal). To
activate the feature, attach the pedal to Ext.1 jack and set Bank sw mode submenu to EXT ON P1.(see Fig.
26)

To check, press or on the external footswitch. The bank you are switching to will be shown
on the display and channel LEDs will start blinking. Select the desired bank with and , and
press a preset footswitch. This will activate the preset in the bank you have selected. If you don’t press any
of the footswitches after you press channel switch, the previously used bank number will be retained.
Caution: Use only manufacturer supplied external pedal (optionally supplied) or consult the manufacturer
on the type of pedal you can use.
