20: MUTE: This switch, when depressed, mutes the output signal at the speaker jacks and the effects
loops, allowing you to silently tune or switch instruments. The adjacent LED illuminates when the
Mute function is active.

21: TUNER: The electronic tuner is active whenever the amplifier is turned on, providing constant,
“real time” tuning. The bottom row of LEDs indicate which note (string) is being tuned. The top row
of LEDs provides directional queues to facilitate quick and precise tuning of your instrument. The
indicated note (string) is properly tuned when only the center LED is illuminated.

22. EFFECTS: Use this control to select one of the fifteen digital effects. Complete information about
the DSP effects is on page 7.

23. DELAY: Use this control to select one of the fifteen digital delay effects. Complete information
about the DSP effects is on page 7.

24: SAVE/TAP: Use this pushbutton to set the tempo of many of the effects by tapping the button
repeatedly in time with the desired tempo. The Save/Tap button is also used to save DSP presets
and to restore the factory default DSP settings. Additional information about the Save/Tap button is
on pages 7 and 8.

25: SAVE/TAP LED: This LED flashes in time with the tempo set by the Save/Tap button (#4) and
serves as a status indicator for certain DSP activities (see page 8).

26: REVERB: Use this control to adjust the amount of the digital reverb effect. In its fully counter
clockwise position the signal is “dry” (without any reverb). As you rotate the control clockwise the
amount of reverb increases. The Reverb setting may be saved as a channel preset - see page 8.
