Empress Effects Tremolo2 - Manual (Page 10)

Bypass Mode: Select to use true bypass or buffered bypass.
True Bypass (default): Set the mode toggle switch to the
left (tap tempo).
Buffered Bypass: Set the mode toggle switch to the right
(preset).
Preset Mode: Select how to change presets.
The advanced configuration mode lets you customize the functionality of the tremolo to suit your needs.
Two Button Switching (default): Set the rate|ratio knob all
the way counter-clockwise.
One Button (instant) Switching: Set the rate|ratio knob all
the way clockwise.
Ramp Speed: Select how long it takes to ramp from one
preset to another.
Setting the depth knob fully counter-clockwise (default)
will have no ramping; the rate changes immediately to the
new preset's rate.
Setting the depth knob fully clockwise will have a long
ramp between presets, much like a Leslie cabinet changing
from slow to fast.
The knob can be set anywhere in between to fine tune the
ramp time.
Entering Advanced Configuration: Unplug the power
from the Empress Tremolo . Plug the power back in
while holding down both the tap and bypass
stompswitches. The bypass LED should blink twice to
confirm that you are in the advanced configuration
mode.

Exiting Advanced Configuration: Press both the tap
and bypass stompswitches at the same time. The
bypass LED will blink twice to confirm that the tremolo
has exited the advanced configuration mode and will
reboot into the standard operation mode.
Modify Settings: Use the controls outlined below to
configure the pedal as you like. When a parameter is
modified, the tap LED will blink to confirm that a
change has been made.
Factory Reset: While in the advanced configuration, press the following stompswitches in order: tap, bypass, tap, bypass. The LEDs will do a little
dance to confirm that the tremolo has been reset to its factory settings. Please note that this overwrites the current presets with the factory presets.
