In screen where you select the plugins to load, by pressing buttons corresponding to the arrows
you can also display the plugin list sorted "By Vendor", and still more to the right, display the list:
This screen proposes the assignment of:
vSwitch 1/2/3/4: 4 virtual pedal controls assignable to an available slot of a board. The usage is similar to the allocation of an
external hardware foot switch, so after loading a vSwitch into an available slot, enter in the plugin display, in the view mode of
the parameters (PARAMS), to assign the parameter on which the vSwitch must intervene. In the "Assign To" select the switch
created (vSWITCH1/2/3/4), and enter the values "Min" and "Max" respectively to the minimum value for "Min" and maximum for
"Max" , or with different values in case the parameter is constituted by more than 2 positions.
vTap: To assign a tempo switch to an available slot in order to be able to transmit bpm values with the procedure of "Tap
Time" to all plugins that recognize this type of message. All active plugins, able to receive tempo information, will be influenced
by the data that this switch will send. To determine the value of the desired time, press the slot to which it is assigned "Tap
Tempo" at least 4 times. Holding down the button corresponding to “Tap Tempo”, as with all the plugins you enter the first level
of editing, with the difference that in this window you have the “LED” option, to enable or disable the flashing of the switch, in
sync with the set time. Please note that for the plugins that include this type of regulation, it is necessary to enable the receipt
of time information.
vTuner: To assign a guitar/bass tuner to an available slot, with the ability to mute or un-mute the audio signal when activated,
through the available control.
“NO EFF”, of course to empty the slot, and "BACK" button to return to the previous screen.
General notes on using vPed
It is recommended not to remove a USB device when in use, so don't unplug it until an operation that involves the USB device
is in progress, or until you exit from a page that involves the use of an USB device.
The power on timing of vPed, even extremely limited, depends on the characteristics of the board that was loaded when power
the device is off.
When the power is off in the unit, before unplugging the power cable, wait until the lighting of PAGE / EDIT button is turned off.
Connecting a MIDI keyboard, to make use of VSTi (VST instrument), use a good quality USB
MIDI interface. If necessary
refer to the compatibility list available on www.vped.net.
Most of the control pedals (pedals of expression) are compatible (e.g. Roland EV5 ™, Moog EP-Z ™, M-audio EX ™, etc..), and in any case
those which feature a polarity switch. Some expression pedals that have ¼ "jack mono are also compatible, however the
linearity response may be compromised.
Compatibility of plugins that may be installed in vPed is extremely high, so it will be possible to use most of the VST / VSTi
currently available, provided that they are appropriate to the type of device used.
The pictures of plugins displayed in this document, refer to a hypothetical configuration, and do not reflect the endowment of
effects available in vPed at the time of purchase.
Using certain USB devices, it is possible that these need to be disconnected when the vPed power is on.
It’s possible that, with certain plugins and only in the graphic editing screen, audio noise may occur.
