Detailed Manual
The opening section of this part of the User Guide will explain the FI’s different Instrument
Modes and all the other settings of the Boot Menu. It will then show you how to update your
pedal’s firmware.
The next few sections, which form the bulk of the manual, will show you everything you need
to know about the Editor Suite. They begin by showing you how to download and install the
software and connect the FI to your computer. They then go on to explain how to load, save,
transfer and rearrange programs using the Manager. The final section of that group takes
you through all of the controls and functions of the Editor in detail. Immediately after that,
there is a section on Building Your First Sound from scratch, followed by some short
Tutorials on how to configure the FI to replace single-effect stomp boxes.
Towards the end of the manual there is a section which explains the MIDI features of the FI
such as Expression control and the new Sustain feature. There is a chart showing the full
MIDI Implementation and a list of Compatible MIDI Interfaces.
The Appendix contains block diagrams of the FI’s signal path and some useful lookup
tables of the filter and LFO frequency settings.
A tremendous amount of care and effort has been put into making this manual as clear,
comprehensive and user-friendly as possible. As you will have already noticed, there are
hyperlinks throughout the document. At the bottom of each page there is a hyperlink to the
Table Of Contents (which itself comprises hyperlinks) so you can click to quickly navigate
between sections if you need to refer to relevant information discussed elsewhere. Should
you be unable to find what you are looking for in the Table Of Contents, remember that you
are most likely reading this in PDF format either online or embedded in the Editor Suite; as
such, you can press CTRL+F and type a keyword to find the information you need.
The FI is a very deep pedal and there is a lot to learn. You will probably need to refer back to
this manual several times. It really does contain a wealth of information and if you take the
time to read and digest it, you will be rewarded with the knowledge of how to create some
amazing sounds.
We hope that your Future Impact v3 brings you many years of joyful music-making!
