BEFORE USE (CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS)

9 BYPASS button / indicator

When this button is set to ON, the audio input connector signals are fed directly to the output connectors, bypassing the effector circuits.

When the audio input/output connectors are connected directly in this way, the indicator flashes.

10 EFFECT OUT LEV. dial

When effects are set to ON, this dial can be used to control the effect output level. Adjustment range is to +6dB.

Beat Effect section

11 BPM COUNTER display

Displays the beats-per-minute of the input source, or the TAP input. The indicator flashes during automatic BPM calculation. When power is first turned on, the counter will flash [120 BPM].

20 Beat select buttons / indicators (1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1/1, 2/1, 4/1, 8/1)

[During BPM mode]

When a BPM is measured automatically or input manually, the beat select button [1/1] is selected by default. The effect is synchronized automatically to the BPM, and the corresponding effect time is displayed.

If a beat select button is then pressed, the effect is newly synchronized to the corresponding multiple of the BPM (1/ 8, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, etc.), thus allowing one-touch change of the BPM synchronization multiple. In turn, the selected beat select button lights, thus showing to what multiple of the actual BPM the effect is synchronized, as well as the multiple of the time parameter.

[During RHYTHM mode]

When the rhythm input with the TAP button is established, [1/1] is selected and a multiple of the rhythm can be selected with the beat select buttons.
