MORPHING

The Multi-Function control input can be used to morph between the two

presets. For example, let’s say preset 1 is saved as a Multiband normal

setting and preset 2 is a Multiband octave setting. By connecting an SA161

Expression Pedal, you can fade from the preset 1 Multiband normal sound

into the octave effect saved in Preset 2 by rocking the expression pedal

from heel to toe. As you fade between the sounds, the two footswitch LEDs

will change brightness depending on where you are in the transition.

Morphing is not a cross fade between two sounds but rather a gradual

shift between all of the individual parameters. So the middle of expres-

sion pedal range is truly an “in-between” sound.

There are 276 possible pair combinations of sounds and some will sound

better than others. Some obvious applications are morphing from clean

to distorted sounds, low drive settings to high drive settings, changes in

volume, or between dramatically different sounds.

The expression pedal can be effectively inverted depending on which

preset is initially enabled. This will toggle start and stop presets for the

pedal. Keep in mind that adjusting knobs while using the expression

pedal will only control the originally selected preset, independent of the

expression pedal position. Also, while tweaking presets to get the desired

pair of sounds for morphing, don’t forget to save before switching to the

other preset.
