What the eight knobs do
The eight knobs located below the displays control the functions shown at the bottom of the displays.
When you depress the [ACCEL/CTL] pedal, it will function as either an ACCEL pedal, which allows you to modify the sound by means of an
Accel effect (p. 19), or an ordinary CTL (control) pedal. The [EXP] pedal can be used to control Foot Volume, Wah, etc.
The function of each of these pedals can be assigned individually for each patch.
Press the [ACCEL/CTL] pedal
When using the pedal for ACCEL (SOURCE MODE set to MOMENT; p. 33),
the function will be turned on when you depress the pedal (indicator
will light).
It will turn off when you release the pedal (the indicator will go out).
Depress the [EXP] pedal (press down on
the toe)
The [EXP] pedal’s value will increase.
Release the pedal (press down on the
heel)
The [EXP] pedal’s value will decrease.
Firmly press down on the toe
The EXP PEDAL SW function will turn on (the indicator will be lit).
Firmly press down once again to turn the function off (the indicator will
go out).
You are free to assign the parameters that will be controlled by these pedals.
Phrase Loop
By operating the [PHRASE LOOP] pedal
you can create performances in which you
build up layers of sound by recording and
playing back in real time.
The functions assigned to each knob are displayed here.
You can assign the Play screen knobs to control the parameters you
want.
