Foot switch function details (additional info)
Tuner On/Off
If the tuner is turned on by operating the foot switch, three LEDs of the foot
switch are switched to tuner display (the VARIATION LED remains set to the
original display).
If you press and hold the VARIATION button, the VARIATION LED is switched to the
tuner display, but the display of the foot switch remains unchanged. In any case,
when the foot switch is pressed while the tuner is on, the tuner is turned off.
[TIP] When the LED of the foot switch is in the tuner display, the tuner is turned off
even if you press the foot switch when it is assigned to another function.
Looper recording / playback / overdub and LOOP mode
Each time you press the foot switch, the looper operation transitions. You can
use three modes of operation, including the same operation as the LOOP
button on the top panel (LOOP mode 1) (refer to "Foot Switch Function
Setting mode" on page page 11).
LOOP mode 1: Basically operates in the same way as the LOOP button.
However, if the switch is pressed in the suspended (unrecorded) state, the
recording standby is skipped, and recording starts immediately.
LOOP mode 2: If the switch is pressed while recording, recording is stopped
and switched to Overdubbing mode. Others are the same as LOOP mode 1.
LOOP mode 3: If the switch is pressed while suspended (including the
recorded state), during playback, or during overdubbing, the previous
phrases are erased, and new recording starts.
[TIP] A different mode can be assigned to multiple switches, so you can freely
combine the recording - playback - overdubbing order when playing.
Collective control of rhythm and looper
You can control both the rhythm and the looper at once with a single foot switch.
When both the rhythm and the looper are suspended while no looper has
been recorded (or in LOOP mode 3), the mode transitions in the order
of Start rhythm playback
Start looper recording
playback) each time the button is pressed.
[TIP] If you press both during playback, operation will be the same as "Looper recording /
playback / overdubbing". Press twice quickly to stop both the rhythm and the looper.
If you press this button when both the rhythm and the looper are suspended
while the looper is recorded, the rhythm and looper start playback at the
same time (excluding LOOP mode 3).

[TIP] The looper is always played back from the beginning, and the rhythm is played
back from the middle according to the relative position when recording the
looper (refer to "Simultaneous playback of rhythm and looper" on page 9).
When either button is pressed during playback, the relative position is not
reflected.
If the button is pressed while the looper is playing back and the rhythm is
stopped, the looper status does not change and the rhythm starts playing from
the beginning.
This dual channel, 22W blackface design from the 60's used 6V6 power
tubes and a tube driven reverb to produce a big sound at a lower wattage.
Our modeling is based on the Vibrato channel.
This models the clean channel of a high-quality amp that was produced only
on special order, and was known as the overdrive special. With a beautifully
rounded low range, a sharp midrange attack, and a sweet treble register, this
is ideal for single coil pickups.
This models the overdrive channel of a 100W high-quality amp that was
produced only on special order, and was known as the overdrive special. The
wonderful sustain obtained by raising the GAIN control is smooth and soulful.
This is a modeling of the normal channel of AC30, which is a typical guitar
amplifier of VOX. The clear high range of the Celestion alnico "Blue" speaker,
as well as the rich midrange, deliver a captivating clean sound.
This models an AC30 amp with the "top boost" circuit of the 1964 AC30. It
delivers a smooth and refined top end, a majestically deep overdrive, and a
rich, brilliant clean sound.
