Controlling Morphs with a Pedal
The behavior of the pedal when MORPH
A/B is selected for pedal assignment is slightly
different. When you assign MORPH A/B, the
pedal immediately acquires control over the
morph, and the morph jumps to the current
pedal position. (Toe up=1=effect B; toe
down=64=effect A.)
A/B still selects the A or B effect, and the
A and B LEDs indicate which effect is avail-
able for editing. Edits can be made via the
front panel to either A or B effect parameters,
but the pedal determines which effect is
being heard . For example, you can edit the
parameters of effect B, and your edits will
take effect, but if the pedal is in the toe down
position, you will only be hearing effect A.
You won't hear the results of your edits to
effect B until you move the pedal to its toe up
position.
English
When you deassign the pedal, Vortex will
immediately switch to whichever effect, A or
B, is indicated by the front panel LEDs.
Remember that A and B effects can have
different pedal assignments. If either the A or
B effect has been stored with the pedal
assigned to MORPH A/B, (and a pedal is
connected) pedal control is immediate when
the effect is loaded.

Pedal Control
If you are using Vortex's A/B relay fea-
ture, pedal morphing allows independent
control over morphing and channel switch-
ing.
For example, you could use the pedal to
control morphing between ORBITS A and
ORBITS B , and use the A/B switch to select
lead or rhythm channels for either effect.
