Control Using an Expression Pedal
Connecting an expression pedal (Roland EV-5, BOSS FV-500H,
FV-500L, EV-30; sold separately) to the TEMPO/EXP jack enables you
to control the respective parameters of the [E.LEVEL], [FEEDBACK],
and [TIME] knobs.
* Use only the specied expression pedal. By connecting any
other expression pedals, you risk causing malfunction and/or
damage to the unit.
Making the Settings for Expression Pedal Functions
1. Hold down the pedal switch and connect the
expression pedal.
The function-setting mode for the expression pedal is enabled
and the CHECK indicator lights in orange.
* The setting mode cannot be entered while LOOP mode is
selected.
* When connecting an expression pedal to the TEMPO/EXP jack,
set the minimum volume for the connected expression pedal
to the “MIN” position.
2. Make the settings for the parameters.
Turn the [E.LEVEL], [FEEDBACK], and [D.TIME] knobs to set the
maximum values of the ranges you want to control. If you don’t
want to control a particular parameter with the expression
pedal, set its value to the “MIN” position.
* You can set only the maximum value of a parameter range
controlled using the expression pedal. Setting the minimum
value is not possible.
3. Save the parameters.
Press the pedal switch to make the CHECK indicator rapidly ash
in orange and save the settings.
After the settings have been saved, the unit returns to normal
operation.
* Never switch o the power while the CHECK indicator is
ashing rapidly.
* This setting is retained even while the power is turned o.
