Focuses the effect. Any previously focused effect reverts to an ‘on’ state

Effect on and ‘focused’

Turns the effect off. If any other effect(s) are on, the previously ‘focused’ effect

resumes being ‘focused’

NOTE: Only one effect may be ‘focused’ at any time.

9. Effect Type
This changes the effect type and edits a parameter of the currently ‘focused’ effect

(modulation, delay, or reverb).
Each segment represents a different effect (four for each type of effect). An

LED shows which effect type is currently active. The distance travelled through

the ‘segment’ modifies an effect parameter. The Effects Table below shows the

modifiable parameters.
This setting is saved when you store a patch.

10. Effect Level
This modifies an effect parameter. For modulation and delay effects, turning the Level

control while holding down the Tap button (11) modifies the rate/time of the effect.
The Effects Table below shows the modifiable parameters.
