APEX Mode

For the ultimate in expressive control, every parameter on every pedal can be assigned – in full or in a range, normal or inverse – to an expression pedal.

Step by step instructions:

• To enter APEX Mode, first make sure 9V power is unplugged.
• Next, hold down FS1 (right footswitch) as 9V power is applied.
• LED1 (left LED) will blink rapidly to confirm pedal is in the expression setting mode.
• While in expression setting mode, you may now assign any and all of the knobs – in their full range or partial, direct or inverse mapping – to the expression pedal.
• To assign the full sweep of the knob to expression, simply move it in the direction you want it mapped – up for up, down for down.
• To assign a range of the knob rather than the full sweep, hold down FS2 (the left footswitch) while turning the knob to the desired values. You’ll set two things – the minimum and maximum.
  • The pedal will confirm each input by blinking the LED twice. Set the first value, wait for blink confirmation, then set the next value.
  • For direct mapping, set the minimum value, then the maximum. Alternately, if you want inverse mapping – set the maximum value first, then the minimum.
  • Once each value is confirmed by LED blinks, release FS2.
• To clear all assignments, flip SW1 (the left switch.) To clear the last assignment, flip SW2 (the right switch).
• Once completed, press FS1 again to exit the expression setting mode. The LED will blink on exit to show the number of parameters currently linked to the expression pedal.
