Setup Details
2•3
The other four Knobs in Setup screen 2 are dedicated to expression pedal assignments.
Any or all 3 FX Units in the M9 can be controlled by an expression pedal when you plug
one into the Pedal 1 or Pedal 2 jack. You can use up to 2 pedals at once.
Each pedal can be assigned to control an FX Unit or the Looper. You have 3 selection
choices here: Off, Pedal 1 or Pedal 2. Knobs 1 & 2 set the assignments for FX 1 & FX 2,
Knob 4 sets the assignment for FX 3, and Knob 5 sets the assignment for the Looper.
*Note: Looper pedal control is a global setting. FX pedal control settings are saved per
Scene. See Chapter 3 for more details on how to set up heel and toe pedal settings.
Preferences, Scenes
Press the Model Select knob while viewing the Tempo, Expression Pedals LCD and you’ll
toggle to Setup screen 3, Prefs & Scenes. In this LCD screen you can set Bypass Mode,
Dim Mode, Routing, Relative Mode and Scene Modes. These are all global settings.
The Model Select knob toggles between True Bypass and DSP Bypass. In True Bypass,
mechanically switching relays route your signal directly from input jack to output jack,
bypassing all circuitry, for absolutely no processing or conversion all FX are bypassed.
If you’re playing back a loop, however, or you want your Delay and Reverb trails to be
heard when bypassing all FX, you must use DSP Bypass. If you want to use True Bypass,
keep in mind that it can only be activated when all of the following conditions are met:
• True Bypass is enabled in Setup mode (via the Model Select knob).
• All 3 FX Units are in a bypass state.
• The looper is stopped.
• Looper mode is inactive (the Tap footswitch LED is not solid red).
Routing
Select your FX Routing setup with Knob 3: either 1>2>3 or 3>2>1. Please note that
expression pedal assignments are retained per FX Unit # and follow the selected routing.
For example, if FX1:PDL2, then PDL2 controls FX1 whether its first or last in the routing.
