Adjusting the expression pedal
(Calibration)
If you find the expression pedal difficult to use, perform this pro-
cedure so that the pedal will function optimally. For example if
the effect does not reach maximum when the pedal is advanced
all the way, or does not reach minimum when the pedal is re-
turned all the way, use the following procedure to make the ap-
propriate adjustments.
When making adjustments, use your hand to move the pedal.
Accurate calibration may not be possible if you use your foot to
operate the pedal.
1. Turn on the power while simultaneously holding down the
EXIT switch and the PEDAL switch. The Multi-display will
show “PEDAL” for approximately one second, and will then
indicate “MIN.”
2. Slowly return the pedal to the full back position. When it stops,
release your hand and press the WRITE switch. The Multi-
display will change from “MIN” to “MAX.”
If you decide to halt the adjustment procedure, press the EXIT
switch. The power-on display will appear, and you will enter
Program mode.
3. Slowly advance the pedal. When it stops, release your hand
and press the WRITE switch.
2. press slowly
3. press slowly
The Multi-display will indicate “COMPLT” for approximately
one second. Then the power-on display will appear, and you will
enter Program mode.
After the adjustment procedure has been completed, verify the
operation of the pedal.
Select an effect that will make it easy to verify the adjustment.
For example, set the Pedal effect to the VOLUME effect, set the
value to 0, and check the MIN level when the pedal is returned
all the way.
If you make a mistake during the calibration procedure, the Multi-
display will indicate “
ERROR
,” and you will return to the screen
before the adjustment (the “
MIN
” display). If the “
ERROR
” dis-
play appears for repeated attempts, a malfunction may have oc-
curred. In this case, please contact your dealer.
Restoring the user programs to the
factory settings (Reload)
1. Turn on the power while simultaneously holding down the
EXIT switch and the PROG/FX SELECT switch. The Multi-
display will indicate “RELOAD?
2. Press the WRITE switch. The Multi-display will change to
RELOAD,” and the reload operation will begin. When the
reload operation is completed, the display will indicate
COMPLT” for approximately one second. Then the power-
on display will appear, and you will enter Program mode.
Never turn off the power during the reload operation.
When you perform the reload operation, all user programs will
be rewritten. Rhythm settings will also be initialized.
