Footswitch Use; Mgt-4 Footswitch - Fender Mustang GT40 Expanded Owner's Manual

Two foot-control devices can be used with Mustang GT amplifiers—the MGT-4 Footswitch and the EXP-1
Expression Pedal.
The four-button MGT-4 Footswitch comes with Mustang GT200 and is optional for Mustang GT40 and
GT100. It enables convenient remote foot control of several functions, including the built-in tuner, amp pre-
set selection, Quick Access preset selection, effects bypass, 60-second looper and more. The EXP-1 Expres-
sion Pedal, optional for all three Mustang GT amps, is a dual-mode digital pedal that controls Mustang GT
volume and amp/effect parameters.
Each pedal can be used individually by connecting to the "FOOTSWITCH" jack on the amp's rear panel, or
both pedals can be used simultaneously by "chaining" them together (instruction on how to do this are
found on the bottom of the EXP-1 Expression Pedal).
The MGT-4 Footswitch layout consists of four buttons—a MODE button at far left, and three numbered
FUNCTION buttons. Four MODE LEDs are at far left (one directly above the MODE button and three below
and left of it), with three other FUNCTION LEDs along the top (one above each FUNCTION button) and one
more FUNCTION LED in the center just below the DISPLAY WINDOW.
