Lexicon VORTEX - MANUAL 2 User Manual page 22

Once a parameter is assigned to a pedal,
pedal control of the parameter is always
active, even if you move the Parameter knob
to select another parameter for editing.
While an assigned parameter is selected,
value changes made with the pedal will be
displayed. When pedal motion stops, the
display will return to display of the register or
preset number.
When the Parameter knob is turned to
another position, the Pedal LED will turn off,
and the value of the new parameter will be
displayed. The new parameter can be edited
with VALUE; the pedal will continue to con-
trol its assigned parameter.
Note: If the pedal is unplugged while an effect is running, Vortex will not recognize the
fact that there is no pedal until a new effect is loaded. If the pedal is unplugged while an
effect with a pedal assignment is running, Vortex assumes the pedal has been moved to
value = 1, and will not allow pedal reassignment or deassignment. If you unplug the pedal,
load a new effect to make sure that Vortex recognizes the disconnection.
English
To remove a pedal assignment, simply
reselect the assigned parameter and press
PEDAL/TAP, or select another parameter for
assignment and press PEDAL/TAP. When a
pedal is deassigned, the parameter returns
to its original value (as set prior to pedal
assignment.)
Remember that, once a pedal is con-
nected to Vortex, whether or not a parameter
assignment has been made, you must turn
the Parameter knob to ECHO 1 or ECHO
2 to perform TAP functions with the button.
(Footswitch TAP function is unaffected.)

Capturing Parameter Changes
Made with a Pedal
Value changes made with an expression
pedal are not automatically saved when you
store an effect. If you want to save the value
indicated by the current pedal position, turn
the VALUE knob in either direction to set this
as the "original" value. When the effect is
stored, this is the value that will be saved for
that parameter, even if the pedal is reas-
signed, or deassigned.
