The "Pedal Controllers" function allows for specific UTOPIA B300 adjustable parameters to be mapped

(or assigned) to four available assignments:

1)

PARAMETER ADJUST knob (ADJ)

2)

The built-in EXPRESSION PEDAL (IPED - internal pedal)

3)

The built-in EXPRESSION PEDAL FOOTSWITCH (IPSW - Pedal/Footswitch)

4)

The external EXPRESSION PEDAL/FTSW Jack (XPED - external pedal)

These controllers will allow for real-time control over the selected parameter.

PARAMETER ADJUST knob (ADJ).

The "ADJ" selection in PEDAL CONTROLLERS section option lets you assign the PARAMETER

ADJUST knob for "quick adjust". Many people use this control as a Master volume, but you can assign

this to any of the B300's parameters. The default setting of this controller is mapped to MASTER

VOLUME.

EXPRESSION PEDAL (IPED) - internal pedal

The IPED selection in the PEDAL CONTROLLERS section options lets you assign up to three different

parameters that can be adjusted in real time by the built-in EXPRESSION PEDAL . Many people use

this for wah, volume, pitchshift and other effects.

EXPRESSION PEDAL FOOTSWITCH (IPSW - internal pedal footswitch)

The ISPW selection in the PEDAL CONTROLLERS section options lets you assign up to three different

parameters that can be adjusted in real time by the built-in EXPRESSION PEDAL FOOTSWITCH. The

default setting is mapped *Wah On, but it is Off. *Unless preset name relates to WAH then the switch

will activate the WAH.

EXPRESSION PEDAL/FTSW jack (XPED - external pedal)

The IPED selection in the PEDAL CONTROLLERS section options let you assign up to three different

parameters that can be adjusted in real time by using the optional Rocktron Utopia Expression pedal

(sold separately) or the Rocktron HEX Expression pedal or the Rocktron VFS2 footswitch.. The default

setting of this controller is mapped to off.

All of these PEDAL CONTROLLERS let you store an "upper" and "lower" parameter value limit which

the controller cannot exceed. For example, when using the expression pedal to send continuous control

changes to control the "PITCH" parameter, an upper limit of +300 can be set and a lower limit of -

200 can be set — even though the actual parameter range available is from +1200 to -2400. When the

expression pedal is at its heel position in this example, the "PITCH" parameter will be at -200, while at

its toe position it will be at +300. Up to three controllers can be assigned for each individual preset.
