(D The cursor will appear under the currently selected

parameter. Use the A and Tkeys to select the

parameter you wish to control. All parameters for the
currently selected effects are available. "Cmp-THR," for

example, refers to the compressor threshold level
parameter.-Dst-LPF Is the distortion low-pass filter

frequency parameter, etc. The Individual parameters

are described in detail in the '7. The Parameter Mode:
Editing the Effect Programs' section beginning on page

11. In addition to the standard effect parameters, the

following two parameters are available:

• VOLUME: assigns the controller to a special volume-

control stage located immediately after the

EQ stage.

• CURSOR: Allows the assigned controller to control

the position of the cursor in the parameter

mode, facilitating selection of parameters

for editing.

NOTE: Control change reception is disabled while

parameters are being selected.

0 Press the SEL/ASN key to move the cursor to the MIN

and then to the MAX position, using the Aand T keys
at each position to set the desired control range. Both

MIN and MAX have a possible value range of 0 to

100%. For example, if the original range for DIST-LVL

is -42 to 6 (dB), then setting MIN and MAX to 10 and
90 (%), respectively, produces a control range from -38

to +5 (dB).

(D To assign CONTROLLER 2 to an effect parameter,

press the SEL/ASN key again, causing a the
CONTROLLER 2 display to appear.

Footswitch Function Select

Footswitch Function Select determines the function of an

optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitch connected to the

FXSOOB's rear-panel MEMORY IN/DEC TRIGGER jack.

The LCD display will appear as below, and the Aand T
keys can be used to select the desired footswitch function.

TAP TEMPO DELAY is a function which allows delay time
to be controlled by tapping the footswitch in time with the

music (see "Using Tap Tempo Delay," below). When

MEMORY INC/DEC is selected, the footswitch can be
used to recall a range of effect programs specified by the
Footswitch Memory Recall Range Edit function, described

below.

• Using Tap Tempo Delay

When the TAP TEMPO DELAY footswitch function is

selected, and the REVERB stage Dly, Ech, R+D, D -♦ R or
R D effect is selected, the footswitch connected to the

MEMORY INC/DEC jack can be used to set the time of the

L-DLY parameter. Simply tap the footswitch twice at the
appropriate interval. The time between "taps" sets the time

between delays. The time of the R-DLY parameter is

changed by the same amount as the L-DLY time. By tapping

in time with the music you are playing, this function makes it
simple to accurately match the delay time to tempo.

TAPI

► TIME

Time between taps on footswitch sets
delay time.

CAUTION: If either the L-DLY or R-DLY parameter is set

to its maximum or minimum value, the TAP
TEMPO DELAY function cannot be used to

create longer or shorter delays.
