External Control | 23

This control allows for some fun ambient effects where a background
sound can be created and maintained while a separate part can be played
along without turning the entire output into mush.

Using the REVERB SEND for bypass trailing
A common problem when bypassing reverb and delay effects is that the
trailing sound is lost. When the REVERB SEND is assigned to the Expres-
sion Pedal, it can also be used as a “soft” bypass. With the expression
pedal in the toe down position, the reverb will be fully engaged. By moving
to the expression pedal to the heel down position, this will effectively
bypass the effect but allow the reverb to trail off.

MIDI CONTROL
The Dimension Reverb can be controlled via generic MIDI messages. In
order to use the MIDI functionality of the unit, it requires a Source Audio
Soundblox 2 MIDI Adapter. Please check www.sourceaudio.net for avail-
ability. The adapter connects to the Multi-Function input and provides
standard MIDI IN and OUT 5-pin DIN connectors.

Using Soundblox 2 pedals with MIDI greatly extends the functionality of
the units. Having MIDI I/O allows for remote automation, external control-
lers, firmware updates and more. If you have more than one Soundblox 2
pedal, only one MIDI Adapter is necessary. The Multi-Function output will
act as a MIDI thru to pass the MIDI messages on the other pedals via a
Source Audio SA160 Daisy Chain cable.
