OFF/ON
Turns the DELAY OFF/ON.
TYPE
Use this to choose the type of delay.
SINGLE This is a simple monaural delay.
PAN
This delay is specifically for stereo output. This provides a tap delay effect that divides the delay
time between the left and right channels.
STEREO
The direct sound is output from the left channel, and the effect sound is output from the right
channel.
REV. This produces the effect of playback in reverse.
ANALOG This produces a mild analog delay sound.
TAPE This setting provides the characteristic wavering sound of a tape echo.
MOD. This is a delay with a pleasant chorus-type effect added to the delay repeats.
HICUT This features a more suppressed high end than the Single delay.
PH.LOOP
This provides a phrase loop effect where you can record up to 40 seconds of a performance
and play it back repeatedly in a loop. You can use the loop for backing, and add more material
by overdubbing additional performances in the loop.

You'll need a footswitch (e.g., FS-6; sold separately) in order to use PH.LOOP.
DELAY TIME
This sets the delay time.
When set to BPM, the value of the DELAY TIME parameter is set according to the value of the “EFFECT TEMPO”
(p. 30) specified for each patch. This makes it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song.
FEEDBACK
This sets the number of repetitions for the delay.
EFFECT LEVEL
This sets the volume level of the effect.
When TYPE is set to REVERSE, this adjusts the balance of direct and effect sound.

pedal assignments will return to their previous settings.
