Adjusting the Expression Pedal
The GP-10's expression pedal has been set for optimal operation at the factory.
However, extended use and certain operating environments can result in the pedal
going out of adjustment.
If you encounter problems such as the expression pedal's ON/OFF switch not
functioning or the volume pedal not fully cutting off the sound, you can use the
following procedure to readjust the pedal.
1. Press the [SYSTEM] button several times to select the "Calibration."
The display shows "Set EXP1 to MIN. "
2. Move the heel of the expression pedal all the way down, then release the pedal
and press the [WRITE] button.

and press the [WRITE] button.

appears in the display.

pedal switch.
The lower the value, the more easily the switch will respond, even when pressed lightly.

default settings is referred to as "Factory Reset. "
