The Foot Controller of the GW10 can be used as a volume pedal or as a realtime
controller for specific effect parameters. Moreover, when used as a volume
pedal, it can be placed in one of three positions in the effect chain, and be given
a minimum volume setting other than zero (for when you need to easily change
between two different volume settings).
The Foot Controller also features a switch (just beyond the maximum setting)
for turning selected effect blocks on and off.
Volume Position and Minimum Volume
The Volume Position feature lets you specify the
point in the effect chain at which the volume
pedal control is placed.
Minimum Volume can be set to a level some-
where between no sound at all and maximum
volume, letting you use the Foot Controller to
easily move between two volume settings. For
example, if you set the Minimum Volume to a
level somewhat less than maximum, you can
instantly change from a solo level to a backing
level by bringing the Foot Controller up to the
minimum position.

Delay block or at the end of the effect chain.

If q D is selected, the Distortion sound can be
controlled with the Foot Controller.
If w H is selected, the Foot Controller can be used
to control the Distortion and Chorus sound, even to the
point of taking out Distortion and Chorus at the
minimum position but leaving the Delay sound.
If e L is selected, the entire sound level is
controlled with the Foot Controller.
When Wah is selected in the Chorus block and the
OD/DST is active, the order of the effects changes as
shown here:

adjusting the right parameter dial (corre-
sponding to MIN VOL) until you reach the
desired Minimum Volume.
