4. If desired, press PAGE and turn Knob 1 (Min Value) and Knob
2 (Max Value) to set the range you wish to control.
TIP: To reverse controller behavior, swap the min and max values.
When returning to the Home screen, the assigned parameter appears with its
value in white text to indicate a controller assignment.
For any footswitch or pedal type controller assignment, the Min and Max values
are indicated with white dots.
For a snapshot assignment, white indicators appear above and below the slider’s
value, as shown below.

SHORTCUT: To assign a parameter to the Snapshots controller, it’s even
easier—just push and turn the parameter’s knob. The value appears in
white text, indicating it’s now assigned to a controller.
SHORTCUT: Hold ACTION and press a parameter knob to quickly
remove any controller assignment (including the Snapshots controller).
The value’s text changes from white back to its original color, indicating no
controller is assigned.
Clearing a Block’s Controller Assignment(s)
1. From the Controller Assign screen, select the block whose
controller assignments you want to clear and press ACTION.
2. Press Knob 1 (Clear Controller).
Clearing All Controller Assignments

IMPORTANT! Clearing All Controller Assignments also removes the Wah and
Volume assignments from EXP 1 and EXP 2. Use this function with caution!
Tips for Creative Controller Assignment
• By default, a parameter’s Min and Max values will be pretty extreme. It pays to
play pretty conservatively here, as subtle parameter adjustments go a long way.
• To smoothly blend between the tone on parallel paths A and B, select a Split
> A/B block and assign the Route To parameter to an expression pedal. By
default, a heel-down position means the signal passes fully through Path A.
Moving the pedal toward the toe-down position will gradually crossfade into
Path B. Alternatively, assign a footswitch to control the Route To parameter for
instantly switching back and forth.
• If you’re looking for an ultra-clean boost, instead of adding a Volume/Pan > Gain
block, try assigning a footswitch to increase the Level parameter of a Mixer or
Output block.
• If you have a favorite delay or reverb pedal, use an FX Loop block to insert it
into your tone. Assign EXP 1 or 2 to control the block’s Mix parameter, which will
smoothly blend the pedal into your tone.
• For extreme psychedelic dub delay squeals, assign a footswitch to both increase
a Delay’s feedback, and decrease its time.
• Assign a footswitch to toggle between two Delay > Time parameter values, such
as 1/4 and 1/8 dotted.
• Assign IR Select to a footswitch. Set the two IRs as min and max values. Now
you can instantly toggle between them.
