The currently loaded Preset is indicated on the Preset LED Ladder. When a Preset is modified the Preset LED
blinks once.
When a Preset is loaded or when toggling between Parameters using , Knob positions will not align with their
current Parameter values. As a result, turning a knob will likely cause an abrupt change in the sound.
With Catch Up ON, the sound does not change until the Knob is moved to the position corresponding to the
current value. The LED Ladder indicates whether the knob must be turned CCW (top LED blinks) or CW (bottom
LED blinks). The LED flashes more rapidly as the knob approaches the value set by the Preset. All five LEDs blink
once when the knob matches the stored Parameter value.
NOTE: To enable/disable Catch Up Knob Function, power up in System Setup mode and press TAP
Footswitch to toggle ON/OFF.
Catch Up Knob Function
To select and load a Preset using Footswitches:
1. TAP Footswitch selects Preset 1 to 5.
Preset 1 (top LED) to Preset 5 (bottom LED)
blinks.
2. ACTIVE Footswitch loads the Preset. LED stops
blinking.
To save one of the 5 Presets using the Buttons:
1. Press & hold TAP Button
- Blinking Ladder and Button LEDs let you know
you have entered Save Mode.
2. TAP Button selects Preset 1 to Preset 5.
3. ACTIVE Button saves Preset
- LEDs stop blinking to let you know the Preset
is saved.
NOTE: To select Preset, TAP Footswitch must be
in Preset mode. If TAP LED is lit, press and hold
TAP Footswitch.

An Expression Pedal can be used to change any
grouping of knob Parameters in one smooth
gesture. Programming an Expression Pedal is
easy. You simply need to set end points for Heel
& Toe. Here’s how:
1. Press Pedal fully Heel down.
2. Adjust any combination of the Parameter
control knobs.
3. Press Pedal fully Toe down.
4. Adjust any combination of the Parameter
control knobs.
5. Save it or lose it. See “Saving a Preset.”

knobs, hold the ACTIVE Footswitch and, while
holding, press the ACTIVE Button until the Preset
Ladder LEDs flash twice.
