The Tap Button:
The Tap button lets you match the delay time and modulation speeds of the effects (except for
the compressor, which has no delay or modulation) to the tempo of the piece you’re playing. Just
tap your finger in time to the beat, on the Tap button of course, and the selected effect will change
accordingly. The Tap button flashes in time with its tempo.
(NOTE: The chart on page 18 lists specifically what the Tap button controls for each effect setting.)
The Manual (“MAN”) Button:
When you call up a preset, the preset remembers how the controls were set when the preset was
stored (their virtual positions), and basically ignores their current settings. Pressing the Manual but-
ton makes the amp pay attention to the actual positions of the controls and applies their settings to
the sound.

• Restoring Factory Default Presets: To restore the presets to their original factory settings, press
and hold the Manual button and button #5 until the keypad flashes (about 3 seconds). Then turn
the amp off, wait five seconds, and turn it back on. The presets are now restored to the original
factory settings.
WARNING! Restoring the factory presets wipes out any and all changes
you’ve made and any new presets you’ve stored, so use it carefully.
Other things you should know about the lit buttons:
• As soon as you change any of the controls (except for the Master volume), the preset button
starts flashing. That’s its way of saying “Hey! You’ve changed me!” A tap on the flashing button
returns the preset to its original parameters – and makes the button stop flashing. Of course,
you can save the changes, as described under “Saving New Presets” on the facing page.
• When you change banks, the preset button will go out as soon as you press the A/B button,
but no other changes are made until another numbered button is pressed. In other words,
although there is a visual change, the amp won’t store the preset or switch to a different one
(depending on how long you press the numbered button) until you want it to.
