2. If you hold down the SHIFT button as you
rotate the PROGRAM/BPM knob, you will ad-
vance to the first program in each category,
rather than having to scroll through all 150
programs. Once you have selected the correct
category, release the SHIFT button and use
the PROGRAM/BPM knob to select the pro-
gram from within that category.
3. Finally, your eight favorite programs can be
selected by simply pressing one of the PRO-
GRAM MEMORY buttons. (Refer to page 12).
The PROGRAM/BPM knob is a continuous
knob. When you've reached the last program
number, you'll wrap around to the beginning of
the list.
Controlling the effect depth
1. If the CONNECTION switch on the rear
panel is set to DIRECT, use the FX/DEPTH
knob to adjust the depth of the effect. Turning
the knob to the right will increase the effect
depth.
2. If the CONNECTION switch on the rear
panel is set to SEND, you will need to use the
effect send and return levels on your mixer to
control the effect depth.

Using the touch pad

You can control the sound by using your finger
to rub or tap the touch pad.
TIP: Affix the included protective sheet to the touch
pad before using it.
Touch pad care
Never press the touch pad with excessive
force, or place heavy objects on it. It may
crack or break if handled roughly. Press the
touch pad only with your finger, since rub-
bing or pressing the touch pad with a sharp
object will scratch it. To clean the touch pad,
wipe it lightly with a soft dry cloth. Do not
use solvents such as thinner, since this may
cause deformation.
Hold
IIf you press the HOLD button as your finger
is on the touch pad, you can take your finger
away and the effect will continue as if your fin-
ger was still on the touch pad and at the same
location as when you pressed the HOLD but-
ton. The pad LEDs will remain lit at that posi-
tion.
TIP: The position of the pad LED that lights-up may
shift depending on how or where you press the touch
pad.
TIP: For some programs, the sound will continue
even after you take your finger off the touch pad.

Mute function

Holding down the MUTE button will momen-
tarily cut the input signal, but the effected sig-
nal will continue to play.
Transformer effect
By rapidly tapping the MUTE button, you can
create rhythmic effects from a continuous au-
dio input, as in the "transformer" technique
used by DJs.

FX RELEASE

What is FX RELEASE?
Making the transition from a very hard-edge
effect back to the original unaffected signal
can often times be very abrupt or sudden. With
FX RELEASE, the moment you take your hand
off the touch pad (i.e., the moment you turn
off the effect), a delay effect synchronized to
the current BPM will be applied, and will then
gradually diminish. This lets you smoothly and
musically transition from an aggressive effect
such as Distortion or the Decimator back to
the "thru" state.
TIP If you've selected an effect program that uses
delay (i.e., a program whose FX RELEASE is OFF
in the EFFECT PROGRAM LIST), the delay sound of
the effect program will remain the moment you take
your hand off the touch pad, and the FX RELEASE
function will not work.
Saving the FX RELEASE setting
You can save a different FX RELEASE setting
for each program.
