Expression Pedal

Morphing from Heel to Toe

An Expression Pedal can be used to change any grouping of knob Parameters in one smooth gesture. Programming an Expression Pedal is easy. You simply need to set end points for Heel & Toe. Here's how:

1. Press Pedal fully Heel down.
2. Adjust any combination of the Parameter control knobs.
3. Press Pedal fully Toe down.
4. Adjust any combination of the Parameter control knobs.
5. Save it or lose it. See "Saving a Preset."

Clear Expression Pedal Mappings

To clear the Expression Pedal mappings for the knobs, hold the ACTIVE Footswitch and, while holding, press the ACTIVE Button until the Preset Ladder LEDs flash twice.

Note: To use an Expression Pedal, the Exp Pdl Jack must be set to either [EXP] or [EXP + AUX]. See System Setup to select.

MIDI Messages

Save Preset

Enter Save Mode by pressing and holding the TAP Button, then a MIDI program change message will save a Preset to the Preset Slot of the given value 1-127.

Load Preset

MIDI program change message loads the Preset from the Preset Slot of the given value 1-127.
Note: The bottom two Ladder LEDs will be lit when Presets 6–127 are selected via MIDI or Device Manager.

Receive/send using the USB Port or Exp Pdl Jack*.

Presets

5 On Board, 127 Via MIDI

The currently loaded Preset is indicated on the Preset LED Ladder. When a Preset is modified the Preset LED blinks once.

Load Presets

To select and load a Preset using Footswitches:

1. TAP Footswitch selects Preset 1 to 5. Preset 1 (top LED) to Preset 5 (bottom LED) blinks.
2. ACTIVE Footswitch loads the Preset. LED stops blinking.
   NOTE: To select Preset, TAP Footswitch must be in Preset mode. If TAP LED is lit, press and hold TAP Footswitch.

Save Presets

To save one of the 5 Presets using the Buttons:

1. Press & hold TAP Button
   • Blinking Ladder and Button LEDs let you know you have entered Save Mode.
2. TAP Button selects Preset 1 to Preset 5.
3. ACTIVE Button saves Preset
   • LEDs stop blinking to let you know the Preset is saved.
     NOTE: Save Mode times out after a few seconds. Pressing either Footswitch exits Save Mode.

Catch Up Knob Function

When a Preset is loaded or when toggling between Parameters using , Knob positions will not align with their current Parameter values. As a result, turning a knob will likely cause an abrupt change in the sound.

With Catch Up ON, the sound does not change until the Knob is moved to the position corresponding to the current value. The LED Ladder indicates whether the knob must be turned CCW (top LED blinks) or CW (bottom LED blinks). The LED flashes more rapidly as the knob approaches the value set by the Preset. All five LEDs blink once when the knob matches the stored Parameter value.

Note: To enable/disable Catch Up Knob Function, power up in System Setup mode and press TAP Footswitch to toggle ON/OFF.

TAP Footswitch Functionality

Press & Hold the TAP Footswitch to toggle between Tap mode and Preset Select mode.
Press the TAP Button/LED to toggle between Tap Time and Tap Tempo as follows:
