Setup Details

Expression Pedals

In LCD 1 you set up your expression pedal assignments. Any or all 4 FX Units in the M13 can be controlled by an expression pedal. You can use up to 2 pedals at once. Each can be assigned to an FX Unit or the Looper. You have 3 selection choices here: Pedal 1, Pedal 2, or Off. Knobs 1 & 2 set the assignments for FX 1 & FX 2, Knob 3 sets the assignment for the Looper, and Knobs 4 & 5 set the assignments for FX 3 & FX 4.

*Looper pedal control is a global setting. FX pedal control settings are saved per Scene. See Chapter 2 for more details on how to set up heel and toe expression pedal settings.

Looper Levels & EQ

There are two Looper Levels to set up in LCD 2. The first is Play, which determines the volume of your Looper’s playback as balanced with your live guitar. The second is Overdub, which determines the volume of your loop in Overdub mode. To clarify, if your Overdub Level is set to 90%, each time your loop begins a new overdub its volume will be reduced by 10%, sounding quieter and quieter with each overdub pass. The default level for both Play and Overdub is 100%. Use Knobs 1 and 4 to adjust these levels, if desired.

With Knobs 2 and 5 you can adjust Looper Hi Cut and Lo Cut EQ levels. Hi Cut rolls off the high end for loop playback (@2kHz), and Lo Cut rolls off the low end (@500Hz). If applied, this EQ affects the sound of loop playback only, having no effect on live guitar.
