Using The Jam Play Function - Zoom GFX-707 Operation Manual

Using the Jam Play Function

Besides its regular sampler, the GFX-707 incorporates a Jam Play feature that records and plays a guitar phrase of up
to 2 seconds. This allows hold delay, and the phrase can also be played in reverse. The direction and speed of
playback can be controlled with the expression pedal, letting you achieve a "scratch" effect such as used by DJs. To
use Jam Play, select a patch for which the effect type of the REV module is set to JAM, and set the STYLE
parameter (playback method) and TRG/GT parameter (foot switch function) as desired.
