NOTE: When you change the selected Parameter from the stored value, a decimal point appears in the bottom right corner of the display and the Store LED lights.

That's it! You can manipulate any effect setting in the FX7 by pressing the associated Effect selector button on the front panel and turning the Data wheel. The Effect Group buttons also toggle the effects on and off with each successive press of the button.

When you're editing Programs, be sure to pay attention to the flashing Status LEDs. This helps you keep track of where you are in the menus.

IMPORTANT: If you want to store your custom Program so you can use it later, follow the procedure below.

The FX7 helps you remember whether or not you've stored the Program you're working on by lighting the Store LED under the bot- tom right corner of the display when the selected Program has been edited.

Remember that if you change any settings in a Program, you have to store the Program into a User memory location. Otherwise, all your changes will be lost.

To store a Program into a memory location:

1)Press the Store button. The Store LED begins flashing and the User LED lights (if not lit already).

2)Use the Data wheel to select the User location where you want to store the Program.

3)Press the Store button again to store the Program in the loca- tion you selected.

After the storing procedure is complete, the FX7 returns to normal operation at the new Program location.

NOTE: Factory Programs can't be overwritten. When you modify a factory Program and store it in memory, the Program is stored in the corresponding number location in the User Program section.

The FX7's bypass functions are very simple.

To bypass individual effects:

1)From Program mode, decide which effect you want to bypass and press its Select button twice. The display reads:

FX7 specifications

The DOD FX7 is a versatile and innovative guitar effects pedal that has made a significant impact in both live performances and studio recordings. Launched as part of the DOD series, the FX7 is known for its user-friendly interface and a wide array of tonal possibilities, making it a favorite among genre-spanning musicians.

One of the standout features of the FX7 is its extensive collection of effects. The pedal includes nine different effects settings, ranging from classic distortion and overdrive to lush chorus and vivid flanger. This enables guitarists to achieve a diverse palette of sounds suitable for various musical styles, from rock to blues to jazz.

The FX7 utilizes an advanced digital signal processing (DSP) technology that ensures high-quality sound reproduction and low noise levels. This technology allows musicians to incorporate complex effects without deteriorating the original tone of the instrument. Additionally, the FX7’s analog circuitry complements its digital components, enriching the overall sound and providing warmth that many players seek.

Ease of use is another defining characteristic of the DOD FX7. The pedal features a straightforward layout with clearly labeled knobs for adjusting the level, tone, and effect parameters. This allows musicians to make quick adjustments during performances, ensuring they can switch between settings seamlessly without interrupting the flow of their music.

Moreover, the FX7 offers a robust build quality, designed to withstand the rigors of touring and frequent use. The pedal's durable casing protects the internal components from physical damage, while the footswitch is engineered for responsive engagement, allowing for reliable performance under pressure.

Another notable technology embedded in the FX7 is its true bypass circuitry. This feature ensures that when the pedal is not engaged, the guitar signal remains unaltered, preserving the natural tone of the instrument without adding unwanted noise or coloration.

In summary, the DOD FX7 is a dynamic and feature-rich effects pedal that stands out in the competitive world of guitar effects. Its combination of diverse effects, advanced technology, ease of use, and rugged design makes it a crucial tool for both amateur and professional musicians seeking to expand their sonic horizons.
