MAKING A CHANGE FROM THE FM3
In this next section, well use EZ Edit on the FM3 to make a change to one of the footswitches. We’re going to
change the Reverb footswitch to one for Chorus. EZ Mode allows us to tap the footswitch we want to change
and make simple edits on the spot, but remember that while you’re in EZ mode, the normal functions of the
footswitches won’t work! Therefore, if you want to test a switch you rst need to exit from EZ Mode!
1. To begin, use your feet to change to the Effects View as shown on the previous page. (You should see three
footswitches labeled “Drive 1” “Delay 1” and “Reverb 1”)
2. On the FM3, open the SETUP Menu (Push Knob E).
3. NAV to the FC Controllers/Onboard Switches menu choice and press ENTER.
4. Make sure the “EZ” page tab is selected. If not, use the << PAGE >> buttons to select it.
5. On the FM3, tap the Reverb 1 footswitch. Notice the “TAP” settings for this switch in the FM3 main display:
Category is set to “Effect”, Function is set to “Bypass”, and Effect is set to “Reverb 1”
6. Nav to Effect and turn the VALUE knob until “Reverb 1” changes to “Chorus 1”.
(Remember that you never need to STORE changes in any SETUP area. They take effect immediately.)
7. Press EXIT twice and test your new Chorus Footswitch on the FM3.
Continued from previous page.
MAKING A CHANGE IN FM3-EDIT
Now well use FM3-Edit to change the Chorus switch back into a reverb switch.
1. In FM3 Edit, change to View 4.
2. Click the upper right switch (which is now set to “Chorus 1” if you did the steps above).
3. In the “TAP” section of the lower panel, change the Effect from “Chorus 1” back to to “Reverb 1”.
4. As when using the FM3 front panel, there is no need to STORE. Test your switch on the FM3.
The “Show As” and “View” controls in FM3-Edit are visual aids. They help you focus on those
switches that you need to see. Be aware however, that when you select “FC6” , the order of
switches on the screen is different from the order for “FM3” or “FC12”. This is indicated with
small numbers shown inside the LED rings in FM3-Edit.
