MIX – This control adjusts the amount of effect from DRY (no effect) to WET (full effect).

3

Input Level Meters (L and R) – These stereo meters consist of one eight-segment LED per
channel. The segments correspond to -42 dB, -36 dB, -30 dB, -24 dB, -18 dB, -12 dB, -6 dB, and
CLIP.

PROGRAM – This 2-digit LED indicator shows the current program. When the LEDs are
flashing, this indicates that a new program has been selected but not yet recalled.

5

Screen – This backlit LCD panel displays the details of the selected parameter.

6

DATA ENTRY – The rotary encoder is used to select another program or to modify parameter
settings.

7

CURSOR – When the Program LED is lit, the

[ ^ ] and [ % ] keys are used to select a program

number, the

[ < ] ("

STORE

") key is used to store a program, and the

[ > ] ("

RECALL

") key is used

to recall the selected program.
When the Program LED is turned off, the

[ < ] , [ ^ ] , [ > ] , and [ % ] keys are used to select the

different parameters of a program.

PARAMETER keys – These keys allow you to select the different parameters for editing. Each
key has an LED set in it to provide a quick visual indication of the status of the unit.
The

[ DELAY ] key controls the delay or freeze parameters. Each key press steps through a

sequence of display pages, allowing you to set the output level and other parameters.

[ FB ] key controls the feedback parameters. Pressing this key more than once switches

feedback ON or OFF.
The

[ MOD ] key controls the modulation. Pressing this key more than once switches

set up various system parameters for the unit. It has an LED which lights when the key is
initially pressed.

12 BYPASS key – The

[ BYPASS ] key, when pressed, causes the input signal to bypass the internal

circuitry. It has an LED which lights while BYPASS is active.

13 POWER – Press to turn the power ON. The last program will be automatically recalled.

NOTE

The meters come after the A-D converters in the signal chain. Therefore, the CLIP LEDs indicate digital
distortion. The input levels should be adjusted so that the CLIP LEDs never light up.
