The BALANCE control determines the balance between the direct (dry instrument) signal and the effect sound.

Use the ¼" TS IN connector to plug in the instrument cable.

The two ¼" TS connectors OUT A and OUT B send the signal to your amp or other effects devices. Use both connectors if you want to achieve a full stereo effect. For mono use, just plug in OUT A.

The ON/BATT LED illuminates when the effect is activated. It also serves as a battery level indicator.

Use the foot switch to activate/deactivate the effect. When pressing the foot switch 2 seconds or longer, you can tap in the delay time (ON/BATT LED flashes).

Use the DC IN connection at the front of the unit to plug in a 9 V power supply (not included).

The BATTERY COMPARTMENT is located underneath the pedal cover. To install or replace the 9 V battery (not included), press the hinges with a ballpoint pen and remove the pedal cover. Be careful not to scratch the unit.
