This section explains how to use functions such as the MRS-1044's built-in tuner, and how to change the function of the foot

switch.

Changing the function of the foot switch

With the default settings of the MRS-1044, a separately sold foot switch (ZOOM FS01) connected to the [FOOT SW] jack can be used to play/stop the MRS-1044. If you want to use the foot switch to perform manual punch-in/out recording (→ p.33), use the following procedure to change the internal setting.

1.In the main screen, press the [PROJECT/UTILITY] key.

The display will indicate "PROJECT."

2.Use the cursor [E]/[R] keys to make the display read "UTILITY SYSTEM," and press the [ENTER] key.

Using the tuner

The MRS-1044 has a built-in chromatic tuner that can be used when tuning an instrument (e.g., guitar or bass) connected to the [INPUT 1/2] jacks. Here's how to use the tuner.

1.Connect the instrument that you want to tune to the [INPUT 1/2] jack, and turn on the [ON/OFF] key for the jack to which you connected it.

2.In the main screen, press the [EFFECT] key, and then press one of the lit ALGORITHM keys.

The patch currently selected for the insert effect will be

displayed.

3.Use the cursor [E]/[R] keys to make the display read "UTILITY FOOT SW," and press the [ENTER] key.

The function currently assigned to the foot switch will be

displayed.

•PLY_STP: The MRS-1044 will alternate between play/stop each time you press the foot switch (default setting).

•PUNCH IO: The foot switch can be used to perform manual punch-in/out.

4.Use the dial to select either "PLY_STP" or "PUNCH IO."

5.To return to the main screen, press the [EXIT] key several times.

It is not possible to use the tuner from a screen that shows a send/return effect patch.

3.Press the [BYPASS/TUNER] key.

The display will alternately show "INSERT BYPASS" and "TUNER→ENTER." During this time, the insert effect will be bypassed.

4.Press the [ENTER] key.

The display will indicate "TUNER," and the tuner function will be turned on. While the tuner function is on, the insert effect will remain bypassed, and the send/return effects (reverb and chorus/delay) will also be turned off.

5.Play the note that you want to tune, and tune your instrument so that the desired note name (C, C#, D, D#, E...) appears in the display.
