User Manual
8
options, each indicated by the LED color. If you tap in a quarter-note
tempo, the tap divide subdivisions will be:
Red LED: quarter notes (no division)
Orange LED: dotted eighth notes (3/4 of tapped delay time)
Green LED: eighth notes (1/2 of tapped delay time)
USING THE INTERNAL FOOTSWITCH
Tap the CANYON’s internal footswitch at least two times at a steady
tempo. The delay time will be set to your tapping speed, divided by the
tap divide setting. The LED will blink at the rate of the delay.
Tip: When
you tap the internal footswitch, the CANYON will enter/exit bypass. If
you don’t want echoes to stop while setting tap tempo, make sure the
TAILS switch is set to ON, or use an external footswitch.
You can also disable the internal footswitch’s tap tempo function. This is
useful when you want to turn the pedal on/off very quickly. To
disable/enable internal tap tempo, unplug power from the CANYON,
press and hold the footswitch, then plug power back in while holding the
footswitch. The LED will slowly blink five times if tap tempo is turned off,
and will blink twice if tap tempo is turned on. The CANYON saves your
tap tempo enable/disable setting until it is changed again, even if the
pedal is removed from power.
Tip: If you set the Tails switch to ON and
disable internal tap tempo, you can quickly switch the CANYON in and
out of effect mode to “grab” individual notes or phrases to repeat, or to
keep high FEEDBACK settings from becoming too busy.
You can also reset the internal footswitch’s tap tempo to the factory
setting of enabled by holding the footswitch when resetting secondary
knob settings. See step 11 in “Using Secondary Knob Mode” below.
USING AN EXTERNAL FOOTSWITCH
Connect an external momentary footswitch to the TAP IN jack to control
the delay time by tapping in a tempo. The external switch should be
normally open. Upon engaging the switch, it should create a short circuit
between the Tip and Sleeve of the plug. Tap the external footswitch at
least two times at a steady tempo. The delay time will be set to your
tapping speed, divided by the tap divide setting. The LED will blink at the
rate of the delay.
Plugging in an external tap switch always disables the internal
footswitch’s tap tempo functionality.
