Customizing a Controller Footswitch Label
As there's no room for a dedicated Customize button on the Controller Assign page,
customizing footswitches only assigned to one or more controllers must be done from
the "Command Center" page.
SHORTCUT: Once any item has been assigned to a footswitch, touch and hold
the footswitch (but don't press), and a Customize button appears above Knob 5.
Tips for Creative Controller Assignment
• If you assign a footswitch to more than one controller or other item, "MUL-
TIPLE (X)" isn't very descriptive. Don't forget to custom label it - See "Custom-
izing a Command Footswitch Label".
• By default, a parameter's Min and Max values will be pretty extreme. It pays to
play pretty conservative here, as subtle parameter adjustments go a long way.
• To smoothly blend between the tone on parallel paths A and B, select a Split
> A/B block and assign the Route To parameter to an expression pedal. By
default, a heel-down position means the signal passes fully through Path A.
Moving the pedal toward the toe-down position will gradually crossfade into
Path B. Alternatively, assign a footswitch to control the Route To parameter, for
instantly switching back and forth.
• If you're looking for a gritty boost for a solo, instead of adding a Distortion
block, try assigning a footswitch to increase both the Mid and Channel Volume
parameters of an Amp+Cab, Amp, or Preamp block.
• If you're looking for an ultra-clean boost, instead of adding a Volume/Pan >
Gain block, try assigning a footswitch to increase the Level parameter of a
Merge > Mixer or Output block.
• If you have a favorite delay or reverb pedal, use an FX Loop block to insert it
into your tone. Assign EXP 1 or 2 to control the block's Mix parameter, which
will smoothly blend the pedal into your tone.
• For extreme psychedelic dub delay squeals, assign a footswitch to both in-
crease a Delay's feedback and decrease its time.
• Assign a footswitch to toggle between two Delay > Time parameter values,
such as 1/4 and 1/8 dotted.
• Assign the tone knob on your JTV Variax or Variax Standard guitar to a Pitch
Wham block's Position parameter. Watch guitarists in the audience try to

• Assign multiple Amp+Cab parameters to a single switch. With enough assign-
ments, you could almost treat the switch as an A/B amp channel switcher.
• Assign IR Select to a footswitch. Set the two IRs as min and max values. Now
you can instantly toggle between them.
