time, then you can additionally select between spring
and ambience (second layer).
(12)
The
TAP
key performs several functions:
GAIN/VOLUME:
Use ADJUST to determine the
amount of distortion (GAIN). If you keep TAP
pressed while you move ADJUST, you control
the volume of a preset instead. When editing
effect blocks, ADJUST lets you access the second
function layer for parameter settings
FX/AMPS control and 2nd FUNCTION:
Hitting TAP lets you select the second layer of the
effects and AMP simulations (gray)
Speed:
Keep hitting the TAP key in the rhythm
of a song, and the selected effect (delay or
