Expression Pedal
The Expression Pedal on the GNX2 can control up to 3 parameters in real time including the Volume,
Whammy™, and Ya Ya™. When a parameter has been assigned to the Expression Pedal,the parameter’s min-
imum and maximum values can also be programmed.The GNX2’s Expression Pedal includes DigiTech’s exclu-
sive V-Switch.The V-Switch allows you to switch the Expression Pedal assignment on the fly. Applying extra
pressure to the toe of the Expression Pedal engages the V-Switch and the Expression Pedal switches between
the assigned parameter and Wah. The sensitivity or amount of pressure required to engage the V-Switch can
be adjusted to suit your personal taste (or weight of your foot). See page 40 for the V-Switch Sensitivity
adjustment procedure.
The procedure for assigning a parameter to the Expression Pedal is as follows:
1.Press the EFFECT SELECT button until the Exp Assign row has been selected.
2.Press the STATUS button until the display reads exp pdl1 (Expression Pedal Link 1), exp pdl2
(Expression Pedal Link 2),or exp pdl3 (Expression Pedal Link 3), depending upon which assignment you
want to use or the number of parameters you intend to assign.The display will alternate between the
Expression Pedal selection and the assigned parameter.
3.Rotate the Number 1 knob until the parameter appears in the display. See the Expression Parameter
Assignment List on page 38 for a complete list of assignable Parameters.
4.Rotate the Number 2 knob to select the minimum value the parameter reaches with the Expression Pedal
in the toe up position (not available when volume is the assigned parameter).
5.Rotate the Number 3 knob to select the maximum value the parameter reaches with the Expression Pedal
in the toe down position (not available when volume is the assigned parameter).
6.Store your Expression Pedal assignment to your preset. See page 16 for more information on the storing
procedure.
LFOs
The GNX2 includes two low frequency oscillators (LFO1 and LFO2) that can be assigned to the
Expression Pedal parameters. A low frequency oscillator automatically varies the value of the assigned
parameter at a steady rate. A minimum and maximum value can also be assigned.For instance:if the Amp
Gain was assigned to LFO1,and the minimum value was set at 1 and the maximum value was set at 99,
the GNX2 would automatically sweep the amount of distortion from clean to distorted and back to
clean.Individual LFO speeds can also be assigned. In the previous example,the LFO speed would deter-
mine the length of time it took the LFO to sweep from the clean to the distorted sound.The procedure
for assigning the LFOs in the GNX2 is as follows:
1.Press either EFFECT SELECT button until the Exp Assign row is selected.
2.Press the STATUS button to assign LFO1 (
LFO 1) or LFO2 (LFO 2).
3.Rotate the Number 1 knob until the Parameter is displayed.See the Expression Parameter Assignment
list on page 38 for a complete list of assignable Parameters.
4.Rotate the Number 2 knob to select the minimum value the assigned parameter reaches at the bottom
turn around point for the LFO (not available when volume is the assigned parameter).
5.Rotate the Number 3 knob to select the maximum value the assigned parameter reaches at the top
turn around point for the LFO (not available when volume is the assigned parameter).
6.Rotate the Number 4 knob to select the speed that the LFO oscillates from the minimum to the maxi-
mum values. LFO speed ranges from (
.O5 HZ) to 10 Hz (1ºO HZ).
7.Rotate the Number 5 knob to select the waveform the LFO oscillates on.Your choices include:
