the LED of pedal effect block will light.
The pedal LED will light yellow for
VOLUME
effect,
green for a
VOX WAH

--
SAMPLE&PLAY
ambience-type effect.
For the

different than for other effects (refer to p.21).
Using the expression pedal as you play

expression pedal.
2. Make sure that the pedal LED is lit. If it is not lit,
press the expression pedal firmly once to make the
pedal LED light (the pedal will be turned on).
3. Operate the expression pedal while playing your
guitar. As you raise and lower the pedal, the output
sound will change correspondingly.
If Volume is selected in the PEDAL effect block, it will not
be possible to turn the expression pedal on/off. It will
remain on (pedal LED lit yellow).
The on/off status of the expression pedal is not
memorized by each program.
Do not apply excessive force to the expression pedal.
Before operating the expression pedal, verify the amount
of force that is required to make the pedal LED light and
to apply the effect.
Individual mode
In this mode you can press the program switches and
expression pedal switch to turn modulation, pedal,
and ambience effect blocks on/off individually.

In this mode it is not possible to switch programs or to
select bypass or mute.

AMBIENCE
to 2,
PEDAL
to 3.
Each time you press a program switch, it will turn on/
off. For the pedal effect, pressing the expression pedal
firmly will turn it on/off (the switch is located under
the pedal). However for some pedal effects such as
SAMPLE & PLAY
, the expression pedal is used in a
special way, and cannot be turned off once the pedal
has been turned on.
For some effects, it is not possible to simultaneously use
the MODULATION and PEDAL effect blocks, or the
PEDAL and AMBIENCE effect blocks. If you attempt to
simultaneously turn on both of these effect blocks, the
effect block that was turned on first will automatically be
turned off.
