Chapter 5 Setting the Pedal Functions (Pedal Assign)

Active Range

When an expression pedal or other controller that changes the value consecutively is used as the source, this sets the operational range within which the value of the setting changes. If the controller is moved outside the operational range, the value does not change, but instead stops at “minimum” or “maximum.”

(Example) Act. Range Lo: 40, Act. Range Hi: 80
