Other Functions

The 707II also incorporates various other convenient functions which are described in this section.

Using the Hold Delay Function

The DLY/REV module comprises a hold delay effect that allows recording and playing a guitar phrase of up to 2 seconds. You can also play the phrase in reverse or perform loop playback to create interesting "sound-on-sound" layers.

1.In play mode, select the patch to use with hold delay.

2.Press the [EDIT] key to activate edit mode, and select "HLDDLY" as effect type for the DLY/REV module.

3.Use parameter knob 1 to set the TIME parameter.

The TIME parameter determines the length of the recording interval for hold delay. Turning the knob changes the value as follows.

1 – 99: 10 – 990 milliseconds (10-ms units)

1.0 – 2.0: 1.0 – 2.0 seconds (100-ms units)

Mn (Manual): Recording starts when you press the [Q] foot switch and ends when you press the [Q] foot switch again (max. 2 seconds).

4.Use parameter knob 2 to set the MODE parameter.

The MODE parameter determines how the recorded phrase is played back. The following three modes are available.

nL (Normal): Normal direction playback

So (Sound-on-sound):Recorded contents are played back repeatedly to create an overlay.

If you press the [Q] foot switch, the phrase played until the switch is pressed again is added to the sound.

rS (Reverse): Reverse direction playback.

5.Use parameter knob 3 to set the MIX parameter.

The MIX parameter controls the mixing ratio of the delayed sound. A setting of 30 results in equal levels of direct sound and delayed sound.

6.Press the [PEDAL] key a few times until the [PEDAL] LED of the REV module flashes.

The expression pedal can now be used to switch the hold delay function on and off.

7.Store the patch and return to play mode.

When a patch in which hold delay can be used is selected in play mode, the DLY/REV module LED and the [PEDAL] LED are flashing.

8.Push the expression pedal all the way down.

The hold delay function is switched on and the unit is in recording standby mode. The indication "STOP" is shown on the display.

STOP

9.While playing your guitar, press the [Q] foot switch to start recording.

The indication "REC" is shown on the display. The actual operation depends on the TIME parameter set in step 3.
