Altering an effect with the pedal
Selecting the effect sound (patch)
A collection of effect modules, each with
distinct parameter settings, is called a patch.
The GFX-707 has memory capacity for 60
patches which are immediately available for
use. These are divided into two groups of 30
patches each. The PRESET group comprises
read-only patches that cannot be changed by
the user. The USER group contains read-and-
write patches that can be freely overwritten by
the user.
Each patch is given a patch name of up to 6
characters, and patches are organized in
banks (A - F, 0 - 5) and patch numbers (1 - 5).
[ Patches, groups and banks ]
To alter an effect in real time, move the
expression pedal while playing your
instrument with the GFX-707 in play mode.
The aspect of the patch that is changed by the
expression pedal can be programmed for each
patch. To get a feel for this, select various patches
and try out the pedal to see what it does.
Push the expression pedal fully down
The expression pedal also incorporates a push-
down switch that allows on/off control of a preset
effect. The effect that is switched by the push-down
switch can be programmed for each patch.
• To set the effect to be altered by the expression
pedal, p. 22
• To readjust the expression pedal, p. 23
