User Manual

TONE Knob – Usually controls the tone or EQ of the reverb signal. As this

knob is turned clockwise, the sound of the reverb gets brighter. As you

turn TONE counter-clockwise, the sound of the reverb gets darker.

Reverb Type Knob – This knob is an 11-position rotary switch that

selects which of the OCEANS 11's reverb types is active. See “Descriptions

of Reverb Types” on page 4 for details on the reverb types.

MODE Button – This button cycles through the available modes of the

active reverb type. Each reverb type has a certain number of modes which

modify the behavior of the active reverb type. See “Mode Button

Functionality on page 5 for more details.

LED – The LED lights when the OCEANS 11 effect is active and shuts off

when in bypass mode. Its color and blinking pattern also indicate

information about the reverb mode, tap tempo delay, and infinite status.

See “Mode Button Functionality” on page 6, “Footswitch Functionality” on

page 8, and “Infinite Reverb Functionality” on page 14 for more details.

Footswitch – Press the footswitch to toggle the pedal between buffered

bypass and effect modes. When the pedal is in effect mode, the LED will

be lit. In most reverbs, the footswitch can also engage Infinite by pressing

and holding it down. Moreover, the footswitch can be used for tap tempo

in ECHO reverb. For more details see “Footswitch Functionality” on page

7 and “Infinite Reverb Functionality” on page 14.

TAILS Switch – The OCEANS 11 allows you to choose whether reverb

continues to play or stop immediately after the pedal is switched to

bypass. To control this, remove the OCEANS 11's bottom cover and locate

the small slide switch on the bottom of the board labeled “TAILS.” When

TAILS is set to ON, the reverb will continue to play after the pedal switched

to bypass, with the decay time set by the TIME knob. Anything you play

after entering bypass will not reverberate. If the pedal is set for infinite

decay time (i.e. TIME is set to maximum) the reverb will continue until

you turn TIME down or switch to a different mode.
