Buffered Bypass – If you use a long cable between your guitar and the first pedal, or if you use many
pedals on your board, or if you use a long cable from your board to the amp, then the best solution will
most likely be to activate the buffer both in the first and the last pedal in the signal chain.
CanyouhearthedifferencebetweenapedalinTrueBypassorBufferedBypassmode?Maybe,
maybe not – many factors apply: active/passive pick-ups, single coil/humbucker, cable quality, amp
impedanceandmore.Accordingly,wecannotgiveadefinitiveanswerhere.Useyourearsandfindthebest

Kill-Dry on/off – With Buffered Bypass activated (upper DIP switch to the right), the lower DIP switch
canbeusedtosetKill-Dryonoroff.Kill-Dryremovesalldirectsignalfromthepedal’soutput.Thisis
the mode to use when the pedal is placed in a parallel effects loop.
Changing the battery – Unscrew the thumbscrew on the back of the pedal and detach the backplate.
Unmount the old battery and attach the new battery to the battery clip, making sure the polarity is
correct.Thenremountthebackplate.Toprolongbatterylife,removethecablefromtheinputjackwhen
you’re not using the pedal.
Batteries must never be heated, taken apart or thrown into fire or water. Only rechargeable
batteries can be recharged. Remove the battery when the pedal is not being used for a longer
period of time. Dispose batteries according to local laws and regulations.
