  • Page 9: Outline Of The 8080

    Patches Internal settings of the 8080 are called patches which can be stored in memory and called up at any time. A patch consists of the parameter settings for the various effect modules, plus information about the patch level, control pedal and control switch settings, EFF1 routing, EFF2/EFF3 connection type, etc.
  • Page 10: Modes

    In this mode, you can make amp simulator, MIDI, and other settings which ••••••••• affect all patches. Besides the above mentioned main operation modes, the 8080 also has a manual mode for turning effect modules off and on HINT HINT with the foot switches during a performance, and the so-called initialize mode for resetting the unit to the factory defaults.
  • Page 11: Trying Out A Patch (Play Mode Operation)

    Trying Out a Patch The Play mode is the basic operation mode of the 8080, in which you select patches and use them while playing your instrument. When the 8080 is turned on, the Play mode is automatically activated and patch number 1 of the USER group/bank 0 is selected.

  • Page 25: Using The Rtm Function

    Using the RTM Function The 8080 incorporates a so-called RTM (real-time modulation) function which lets the user change effect parameters in real time. During a performance, the CONTROL pedals 1 and 2 and the CONTROL switches can be used to change previously determined effect module parameters.
  • Page 26 Press the UTILITY/PAGE key once to display the RTM parameter. Data entry knob 3 to select the parameter (only for effect types where the RTM destination can be selected). Data entry knob 4 to select the direction for the "RTD=" item. If desired, store the patch.

  • Page 42: Other Functions

    Leave the external effect device always turned on and perform simulated on/off switching at the 8080. When an external effect is selected, but nothing is connected to the RETURN jack, the sound will not be interrupted, because the 8080 internally sends the signal to the next module. However, the EXT module parameters settings will be active, so that the sound may be different from the sound with the SND parameter set to "off".
  • Page 43: Controlling An External Amplifier

    Some guitar amplifiers allow channel switching or on/off switching of built-in effects by an external foot switch. By connecting the foot switch jack of such an amplifier with the EXTERNAL CONTROL jack on the 8080, the amplifier can be controlled within a patch of the 8080.
  • Page 44 (mono or stereo) should be used. For details, please refer to the manual of the amplifier. Be sure to turn the equipment off before making any connections. Some amplifiers may not be suitable for control from the 8080, even if a foot switch jack is provided. Display...
