Turning Eects On and O
To activate or deactivate an eect, simply tap the Reverb, Harmony or Echo
button. The button will glow GREEN when active and WHITE when inactive.
Editing Eects
Don’t like the Reverb, Harmony or Echo that you hear? You can adjust both the
Level (volume) and Style (sound of the eect) to dial in just the right combination
for your music.
To edit an eect, simply PRESS & HOLD the eect button. You’ll know youre in
EDIT mode because the LED ring surrounding the Control Knob will illuminate and
the eect button will pulse.
The LED ring serves as both a Level and Style control. As you turn the knob, the
LED segments will ll up, indicating that you’re turning up the Level of the
current style. When you completely ll the LED ring, the color will change, letting
you know that you’ve now changed the Style of the eect. Continuing to turn the
Control Knob will increase the Level of that Style.
Each eect has four dierent styles to choose from. Three of the styles are
available “out of the box” and one is reserved for a Beamed preset Style
(described next).

Saving Changes
Any changes you make to an eect are stored in real time. There are no extra
steps to take.
Preset
A preset is a “complete sound” created by a combination of eects.
You’ll notice that the active eects change between Preset 1 and Preset 2 in the
images above. Presets can be congured however you like. The state (on/o),
style and level for each eect in a preset can also be dierent from preset
to preset.
With 3 available presets, you might want to set up something like:
1. Fast songs
2. Slow songs
3. Death Metal Englebert Humperdinck Covers
Try shorter reverb for fast songs.
Choose longer reverb and add a bit of echo for slower songs and/or ballads.
Crank up the levels and choose the craziest styles for a special eect preset.
