2. Damper [Damper -/KORG, Damper +, LoopRec -/KORG, LoopRec +]
Sets the functionality and polarity of the damper pedal connected to the DAMPER jack.
Note:
The damper pedal may not work correctly if the polarity setting doesn’t match.
Note:
The microKORG2 does not have a half-damper function.
Damper -/KORG: The pedal functions as a damper pedal. This is the factory default setting. Use this
setting when using a Korg DS-1H, PS-1 or PS-3 pedal.
Damper +: The pedal functions as a damper pedal. Use this setting when the pedal works in reverse.
LoopRec -/KORG: With this setting, you can record with the loop recorder while playing and use the
damper pedal to enter record mode. Use this setting when using a Korg DS-1H, PS-1 or PS-3 pedal.
LoopRec +: Sets the damper pedal to work as the record function of the loop recorder. Use this set-
ting when the pedal works in reverse.
3. Knob Mode (KnobMode) [Jump, Catch]
This sets how the EDIT CONTROL knobs behave when the position of the knob on the panel does not
match the internal parameter value.
Jump: When you turn a knob, the parameter value jumps to the value indicated by the knob. Since
this makes it easy to hear the results while editing, we recommend that you use this setting.
Catch: The parameter value does not change when you turn the knob, until it matches (or “catches
up” to) the value indicated by the knob. We recommend that you use this setting when you don’t want
the sound to change abruptly, such as during a live performance.
For example, let’s say that when you edit a parameter, the EDIT CONTROL 1 knob is in the position
indicated by the figure.
When you switch to a different section, the displayed parameter value for knob 1 may differ from the
actual position of the knob. In this case, the value will not change until the knob position and the dis-
played parameter value match.
