Key Features

• Whammy Effect Selector Knob – The knob is used to select the Whammy (bend), Harmony intervals, or Detune range controlled by the expression pedal.
• Whammy LEDs – One LED will light when a Harmony, Whammy or Detune effect is selected. Harmony effects have dry signal added to the effect signal. Whammy and Detune effects do not have a dry signal added to the effect signal.
• Expression Pedal – The pedal is used to control the pitch bending amount of the selected Harmony, Whammy, or Detune effect. Rocking it forward (toe down) increases the amount of pitch bending while rocking it back (toe up) decreases the amount of pitch bending.
• Drop Tune Effect Selector – This knob selects the shift interval for the Drop Tune effect. One of the LEDs will light when a Drop Tune effect is selected.
• Drop Tune Effect Switch – This switch turns the Drop Tune effect on and off. The status LED light indicate the Drop Tune effect is on. When the Drop Tune effect is bypassed, this LED will be off.
• Whammy Effect Switch – This switch turns the Whammy, Harmony or Detune effect on or off. The status LED light indicates the Whammy, Harmony or Detune effect is on. When the Whammy effect is bypassed, this LED will be off.
