SWITCHING CHANNELS

With either the CH1 or CH2 LED lit, press the CH switch. The channel will change each
time you press the button, and the program stored in each channel will be recalled. (The
physical settings of the top panel selector knobs and control knobs are ignored at this
time.)
HINT: If the optional VFS2 dual foot switch is connected to the rear panel, you can
use it to switch programs. For details, refer to “Using the VSF2 dual foot switch”
(page 17).
HINT: If you want to bypass the effect, press the BYPASS button so the LED lit. If
you want to enable the effect press the BYPASS button once again to cancel bypass.
The DA15 remembers the bypass setting even if you switch modes, programs, or turn
off the power.

MANUAL MODE

When the DA15 is in Manual mode, it works just like a conventional guitar amp. In other
words, the positions of all top panel selectors and knobs (except for the EDIT 1 knob)
indicate exactly what you’re hearing.

GETTING TO MANUAL MODE

If the MANUAL LED is dark, you’re not in Manual mode. Press the MANUAL button; the
MANUAL LED will light, and you’ll be in Manual mode.
NOTE: If the CH1 or CH2 LED is blinking (i.e., when you’re in the middle of selecting a
writing-destination for the program), the MANUAL LED won’t light when you press the
MANUAL button the first time. In this case, simply press the MANUAL button once again.
NOTE: In Manual mode when you edit parameters that aren’t defined by a knob setting
(i.e., effect parameters or noise reduction settings), those settings are saved automati-
cally, and will be recalled the next time you enter Manual mode. However if the EFFECTS
selector is at a different position than it was when you were last in Manual mode, the
default settings for the selected effect type will be loaded.
HINT: If you want to bypass the effect, press the BYPASS button so the LED lit. If you
want to enable the effect press the BYPASS button once again to cancel bypass. The
DA15 remembers the bypass setting even if you switch modes, programs, or turn off the
power.
