No. Name Explanation

DC IN jack

Accepts connection of an AC Adaptor (PSA series;

sold separately). By using an AC Adaptor, you can play

without being concerned about how much battery

power you have left.

* If there are batteries in the unit while an AC adaptor is

being used, normal operation will continue should the

line voltage be interrupted (power blackout or power

cord disconnection).

* Use only the specied AC adaptor (PSA-series).

* If the AC adaptor is connected while power is on, the

power supply is drawn from the AC adaptor.

CHECK

indicator

This is a combination indicator, which indicates

whether the eect is on or o, indicates the various

functions, and functions as the battery check

indicator.

The indicator lights when an eect is ON.

* If this indicator goes dim or no longer lights while an

eect is ON, or when the functions are indicated, the

battery is near exhaustion and should be replaced

immediately. For instructions on changing the

batteries, refer to “Changing the Battery.”

* The CHECK indicator shows whether the eect is on or

o, and indicates the dierent functions. It does not

indicate whether the power to the device is on or not.

OUTPUT-A

(MONO) jack,

OUTPUT-B jack

Connect an amplier to this jack.

* The function diers depending on the mode or

connections.

INPUT-A

(MONO) jack,

INPUT-B jack

These jacks accept input signals (coming from a

guitar, some other musical instrument, or another

eects unit).

* The function diers depending on the mode or

connections.

Turning the power on/o

* The INPUT-A (MONO) and INPUT-B jacks double as

power switches. Power to the unit is turned on when

you plug into the INPUT-A (MONO) or INPUT-B jack; the

power is turned o when the cable is unplugged. Be

sure to disconnect any cord plugged into the INPUT-A

(MONO) or INPUT-B jack when not using this eects

device.

TEMPO/EXP

jack

This jack is for connecting a footswitch (FS-5U, FS-6,

FS-7; sold separately) or an expression pedal (Roland

EV-5, BOSS FV-500H, FV-500L, EV-30; sold separately).

This jack lets you use a footswitch to set the tempo,

control the loop, or turn TWIST on/o, or use an

expression pedal to control various parameters.

* Use only the specied expression pedal. By connecting

any other expression pedals, you risk causing

malfunction and/or damage to the unit.

No. Name Explanation

Pedal switch This is used for switching the eect on and o, and for

switching between the dierent functions.

Thumbscrew

When this screw is loosened, the pedal will open,

allowing you to change the battery.

* For instructions on changing the battery, refer to

“Changing the Battery.”

[E.LEVEL]

knob

This adjusts the volume of the eect sound. Turn the

knob clockwise to increase the eect sound. When set

at the three o’clock position, the eect is played at the

same volume as the direct sound.

* When the [E.LEVEL] knob is set to MAX while in

REVERSE mode, only the eect sound is output, with

the eect sound at the same level as the input sound.

[FEEDBACK]

knob

This adjusts the feedback level. The number of times

the delay sound is repeated increases as the knob is

turned to the right.

* This cannot be used in LOOP mode.

* In GLT mode, this adjusts the depth of the GLT eect.

* Oscillation may occur when the knob is set at certain

positions.

[TIME] knob

This adjusts the delay time. Turning the knob

clockwise lengthens the delay time.

* This cannot be used in LOOP mode.

* The delay times that can be set vary according to the

position of the [MODE] knob.

[MODE] knob This switches the delay eect.

[CARRYOVER]

switch

This selects whether the delay sound remains (ON) or

does not remain (OFF) when you turn o the eect.

Connections

* To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume,

and turn o all the units before making any connections.

*Do not use connection cables that contain a built-in resistor.

*Before turning the unit on/o, always be sure to turn the volume down. Even

with the volume turned down, you might hear some sound when switching the

unit on/o. However, this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

*Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to your various

devices in the order specied. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you

risk causing malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices.

• When powering up: Turn on the power to your guitar amp last.

• When powering down: Turn o the power to your guitar amp rst.

*When connecting a footswitch, you must turn o the power before connecting

or disconnecting cables. Failure to observe this precaution will cause

malfunctions.

Owner’s Manual

Operating the Unit

1. Turn on the eect.

After you have nished making the connections, press the pedal switch to

turn the eect on (the CHECK indicator lights red).

*When in LOOP mode, the eect cannot be switched on or o.

*You can obtain a variety of dierent delay eects by changing how the

connections are made. For more information, refer to “Reference Manual” (PDF).

2. Use the [MODE] knob to select the mode.

MODE knob Explanation Delay time

Using the LOOP (Overdubbing) Function

With the LOOP function, you can record up to 40 seconds of your performance,

and then have that content played back repeatedly. You can also layer this as

you perform something else, then record these together (overdub).

1. Select LOOP.

Set the MODE knob to LOOP (the CHECK indicator goes out).

2. Begin recording.

Recording starts when you press the pedal switch (the CHECK indicator

ashes red).

*The maximum recording time is 20 seconds for stereo input or 40 seconds for

mono input.

*Recording continues even if you release the pedal switch.

3. Stop recording start playback.0

When in the recording state, press the pedal switch to stop recording and

transition to playback (the CHECK indicator is lit green).

4. Start overdubbing.

When in the playback state, press the pedal switch to start overdubbing

(the CHECK indicator is lit orange).

5. Stop overdubbing start playback.0

When in the overdubbing state, press the pedal switch to stop

overdubbing and transition to playback (the CHECK indicator is lit green).

6. Adjust the volume.

Use the [E.LEVEL] knob to adjust the volume of the playback sound.

7. Finish playback.

To stop playback, press the pedal switch twice. (If there is recorded data,

the CHECK indicator blinks green.)

*Press the pedal switch two times in succession, keeping the interval between

presses to one second or less.

Deleting

Hold down the pedal switch for two seconds or longer to delete the

recorded content.

Use of Battery

*If operating this unit on batteries, please use alkaline batteries.

*If you handle batteries improperly, you risk explosion and uid leakage. Make

sure that you carefully observe all of the items related to batteries that are

listed in “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT NOTES” (supplied on a

separate sheet).

*When operating on battery power only, the unit’s indicator will become dim

when battery power gets too low. Replace the battery as soon as possible.

*Batteries should always be installed or replaced before connecting any other

devices. This way, you can prevent malfunction and damage.

Changing the Battery

1. Hold down the pedal and

loosen the thumbscrew, then

open the pedal upward.

*The pedal can be opened without

detaching the thumbscrew completely.

2. Remove the old battery

from the battery housing,

and remove the snap cord

connected to it.

3. Connect the snap cord to the new battery, and place the

battery inside the battery housing.

*Be sure to carefully observe the battery’s polarity (+ versus -).

4. Slip the coil spring onto the spring base on the back of the

pedal, and then close the pedal.

*Carefully avoid getting the snap cord caught in the pedal, coil spring, and

battery housing.

5. Insert the thumb screw into the guide bush hole and

tighten it securely.
