SYNESTHESIA QUICKIN‐DEPTHGUIDE
(firmwarev1.0.2)
1.PARAMETERS:PrimaryandSecondary
Eachalgorithmhasupto6adjustableparameters.ThreeparametersareadjustedbyturningtheSPEED,DEPTH,orTWEAKknobs, 
thesearethePrimaryparameters.Theotherthreeare adjustedbytwisting
(press‐turn)theSPEED,DEPTH,orTWEAKknobs,these
aretheSecondaryparameters.
2.X‐YSWAP.
When running2 algorithms simultaneously, and tweakingthem tofind the desiredsettings, there’ll betimes whereyou want to
knowwhatwoulditsoundlikeiftheeffectorderisswapped,thiscanbeveryeasilyaccomplishedusingtheX‐YSwapfunction:
OnlyPrimaryparametersmayberampedorcontrolledviaexpressionpedal.
3.PRESETMODEvsSTOMPBOXMODE.
Synesthesiahas2modesofoperation,PresetModeandStompboxmode,andasimplemechanismtoquicklyswitchbackandforth
betweenthetwo.

3.1PresetMode
Inthismode,everythingyoudoessentiallyrevolvesaround‘callingofpresets’,favoritesettingsthathavebeenpreviouslysaved.Tap
footswitchA/YtocallpatchA,andtapfootswitchB/XtocallpatchB.Thisisgreatforswitchingovermanydifferentsoundsquickly.

3.2StompboxMode
In contrast, Stompbox mode allows you to treat the pedal as two  individual stompboxes. The footswitches now act as on/off
switchesfortheXandYengines,justlikeusingseparate2pedals.Thefootswitchesalsonowsupportmomentaryaction,i.e.youcan
engagetheXorYmomentarilyby
pressingonthefootswitchandholditforaslongasyouwantthealgorithmtorun.
ThismodeisindicatedbytheORANGEcolorofLEDA/YandLEDB/X.
ThismodeisindicatedbytheREDcolorofLEDA/YandLEDB/X.
TogglingbetweenPresetModeandStompboxMode:
 Pressandholdbothfootswitches,untilallthebankLEDsblinks3x<thescreenwilltemporarilydisplaytheactivemode>.
BothalgorithmsandparameterssettingofeachDSPareswapped,therebypreservingthecompletestate.
