LFO modulation depth to the filter cutoff and the oscillators' pitch is controlled by
MIDI CC1. You can again use a third-party product to attach an expression pedal and
send the relevant CC messages to the FI
You can also plug in a MIDI keyboard to the FI's MIDI IN port and use the keyboard's
mod wheel.
● Can I listen to and create sounds on the editor without using the pedal?
No, in order to hear FI program sounds via the editor you must have the pedal
connected to your computer. The sound is produced by the pedal; the editor just tells
the pedal what settings to use. (Whilst it is technically possible to create programs on
the editor and save them to your PC without having the pedal attached, there would
be little point as you would be unable to hear how they sound!)
● How do I restore the factory patches to my pedal?
You will need to use the editor for this and connect the FI to your computer with two
MIDI cables. If you haven't done so already, go to
downloaded the latest "distribution package" to your computer. The factory patches
are located in a folder called " v 3_sounds " . Once these are on your computer, go to
the F ile m enu, click S elect Directory a nd locate the folder. Click the W RITE ALL
button in the top left corner of the editor window to write the factory default programs
back to your pedal.
● How do I update my pedal's firmware?
You can update the FI firmware directly in your web browser (Chrome only) by going
to

instructions. You will need to connect the FI to your computer with two MIDI cables.
Alternatively you can download the latest firmware from
and install the update using the editor. Power on the FI while holding down both
footswitches. Select F irmware update f rom the F ile m enu in the editor and follow the
instructions. Once the update has successfully installed, power the FI on and off
again. See the
F irmware
update process.
Important: If you update your FI's firmware to 3.00 from an older version then the
tune base will not be at 440 and so the tuner will show "incorrect" pitch values. You
must reset the tune base. You can do this by performing a RESET ALL. Alternatively,
if you do not want to lose any program settings made with the PARAMETER and
EDIT dials, you can manually set the tune base to 440 (or any other desired value).
(See the section on the
● Can I play chords on the FI, is it polyphonic?
These are really two separate questions. The FI cannot respond to polyphonic input,
that is, you cannot play chords on your guitar and have the FI synthesize them. The
FI responds only to monophonic input pitches. You can however play chords using
