The Footswitches

The Footswitches have several functions:

1) Active/Bypass

2) Select/Cueing Presets

3) Tap Tempo

4) Enable Tuner

5) Setting Levels (See Setting Levels for details)

The Left Footswitch is used to bypass/enable the effect or to load a cued preset:

To bypass the currently loaded Preset, press the Left Footswitch. The LED will turn

OFF and the display will briefly show [BYPASS] and then display the Preset Number

and Name. Pressing the Left Footswitch again enables the Preset. The display

briefly shows [ACTIVE] to indicate that the Preset is enabled.

To load a cued preset press the Left Footswitch when the preset number is

flashing. The new Algorithm will be briefly displayed.

The Right Footswitch is used to step up or down through the Presets or to tap

tempo. Press and hold the Right Footswitch to toggle between these two

functions. The Tap LED indicates the current function - Preset cueing: Tap LED

down (decrement) through the Presets. The direction is changed by pressing the

Knob. The display will show the Preset Number and the first 4 characters of the

Preset Name [##.XXXX]. When a Preset is cued the Preset number flashes. Pressing

the Left Footswitch loads the cued Preset and makes it Active.

decrement instead. Pressing it again will go back to increment.

TIP: You can cancel a pending cue by pressing any of the radio buttons or by

pressing and holding the encoder.

You can also load Presets by turning the Knob to the preset number of your
