Expression Pedal Details

Almost any parameter in the M13 can be controlled by an expression pedal, as long as you’ve set up your FX Units and Looper assignments accordingly, in Setup Mode. To set

up expression pedal heel and toe values for the parameter you’d like to control, here’s an 2•3 example of how to do it. Let’s say you’d like to control the Mix level of a Reverse Delay.

•Select Reverse Delay in one of the FX Units, and adjust the sound to your liking.

•Plug in your expression pedal, and set it to the heel down position.

•Adjust the Mix level of the Reverse Delay with Knob 5. Set it to 0%.

•Put your expression pedal in the toe down position and set the Mix level to 100%.

•Play your guitar and work your pedal; the reverse guitar will fade in and out.

You can repeat this with any effect parameters you like. Your expression pedal will control them simultaneously. If you get to a point where you want to start over, simply unplug your pedal from the rear panel and all unsaved pedal assignments will be cleared.

Tube Compressor Model

In addition to the 5 compressors described in the manual, which are all typical stomp box type compressors, we also snuck in a Tube Comp model based on the studio classic Teletronix LA-2A® Optical Compressor, known for its smooth, easy to adjust, tube sound. You’ll find it at the end of the Distortion FX group. Here’s how it works:

A

Tube Comp

DIST

 

 

 

 

THRESH

 

LEVEL

•Adjust Knob 1 to set the Threshold - lower values result in more compression, along with an automatic makeup gain stage dependent upon the Threshold setting.

•Set the output Level with Knob 2. To use the Tube Comp model for boost only, use a high Threshold value and adjust your Level as desired.
