Panel Descriptions

■ Turning the Effects On and Off

With the FS-5L connected, you can check the indicator
on the FS-5L to see whether the effect is on or off.
The indicator is lit when the effect is on; the light goes
out when the effect is turned off.
* The VGA-7’s panel controls cannot be used to turn the effects
on and off while the FS-5L is connected.

EFX Jack (EFX)

Separately sold foot switches (e.g., BOSS FS-5U or FS-5L) can
be connected here to turn effects on/off.

Delay Jack (DELAY)

By using a separately available connection cable (Roland
PCS-31) to connect two foot switches, you can use the foot
switches in the following ways.
fig.42

TIP (white): DELAY

The delay effect will be turned on/off.

RING (red): TAP/HOLD

Use for tap-input of the delay time. If the delay type is set to
HOLD, this will function as the switch to start/stop
recording.
Connect a momentary-type foot switch (BOSS FS-5U: sold
separately).
* If only one foot switch is connected, it will turn delay on/off.

Chorus Jack (CHORUS)

You can connect a separately available foot switch (BOSS FS-
5U or FS-5L) to turn chorus on/off.

Reverb Jack (REVERB)

You can connect a separately available foot switch (BOSS FS-
5U or FS-5L) to turn reverb on/off.

switched with a foot switch connected to the EFX jack,
while you can switch Patches when the foot switch is
connected to the DELAY, CHORUS, or REVERB jack.
Connect a momentary-type foot switch (BOSS FS-5U: sold
separately).
