12345678
EXP Jack
The EXP jack accepts a TRS cable from a standard passive expression pedal or
control voltage (CV) on a TS cable. Each synth type has a specific parameter
controlled by the expression pedal, as explained in the SYNTH TYPE
DESCRIPTIONS section.
When saving a preset, the expression pedal position is saved along with the
knobs. Upon recalling a preset, if the expression pedal is not present or has not
been moved since recalling the preset, the Mono Synth loads the saved
expression pedal setting. This allows you to tweak the parameter(s) controlled by
the expression pedal to later recall with your presets.
The expression pedal’s plug must be wired with the Sleeve connected to the heel
position (usually GND), Ring connected to the toe position and the Tip connected
to the wiper. The nominal expression pedal impedance is 10kΩ though most
other values will work fine. Please do not go below 6kΩ on your expression
pedal’s potentiometer impedance. Some suggested Expression Pedals: EHX
Expression Pedal, EHX Dual Expression, Moog

EP-2 and EP-3, Roland

EV-5
and Boss

FV-500L. Additionally, the EXP IN jack can be connected to a CV
source using a TS plug; the acceptable control voltage range is 0V to 5V.
BYPASS Footswitch
Press the BYPASS footswitch to toggle the SYNTH OUTPUT jack between
buffered bypass and effect modes. The status LED lights when you are in effect
mode.
PRESET Footswitch
Use this footswitch to toggle between Preset and live What You See Is What You
Get (WYSIWYG) modes. The PRESET footswitch is also used to save a preset to
the current synth type set by the TYPE knob. See the PRESETS section, on the
following page, for more information on saving and recalling presets.
Status LED
The Status LED lights when the Mono Synth effect is engaged. The Status LED is
off when the unit is in buffered bypass. The LED lights green for WYSIWYG
mode and lights red when preset mode is selected. The LED lights orange, in
either mode, when loud notes are output from the SENS block into the synth
trigger block.
