Expression Pedal
The expression pedal can control two parameters (in Classic Mode) or two sets of parameters (in Advanced
Mode). Use the toe switch to switch between them—Expression Pedal A or B.
To activate the toe switch, move the “toe end” of the expression pedal so it touches the MX5, and then
press down.
Note: When you save your rig, the current selected Expression Pedal state (A or B) will be saved and then
recalled when you load the rig again.
The column of four boxes represents the expression pedal settings. You can assign one or
more continuously adjustable parameters (ones with a range of values) to the expression pedal.
To set the expression pedal mode, tap the button above Range in the upper-right corner
to select Classic or Advanced.
• Classic: You can assign one parameter to each expressional pedal (A and B). Using
the toe switch will select the other expression pedal and deactivate (bypass) the
current expression pedal’s parameter. For instance, if you assign a wah pedal to
Expression Pedal A and a volume pedal to Expression Pedal B, only one of them will
be active at any time; when you are controlling the wah pedal, the volume pedal will
be bypassed, and vice versa.
• Advanced: You can assign up to four parameters to each expression pedal (A and
B). Moving the pedal will adjust all of its assigned parameters simultaneously.
Using the toe switch will select the other expression pedal and leave the current
pedal’s parameters active and at their maximum values.
To assign a parameter to the expression pedal:
1. If the Assign button is not on, tap it.
2. Tap a box under the Assign button.  indicates an empty box.
3. In the list that appears, tap the model with the parameter you want to assign.
4. In the list that appears, tap the parameter you want to assign.
Tap Unassigned  to unassign that box.
To swap two assignments (while in Advanced Mode), tap and drag one of them over the
other, and then release it.
To set the range of an assigned parameter:
1. If the Range button is not on, tap it.
2. Tap a value under the Range button.
3. Turn the encoder to set the desired value as a percentage of the parameter’s entire range.
Press the encoder or tap elsewhere to confirm the value.
