Catch Up Knob Function
When a Preset is loaded or when toggling between Parameters using , Knob positions will not align with their
current Parameter values. As a result, turning a knob will likely cause an abrupt change in the sound.
With Catch Up ON, the sound does not change until the Knob is moved to the position corresponding to the
current value. The LED Ladder indicates whether the knob must be turned CCW (top LED blinks) or CW (bottom
LED blinks). The LED flashes more rapidly as the knob approaches the value set by the Preset. All five LEDs blink
once when the knob matches the stored Parameter value.
Note: To enable/disable Catch Up Knob Function, power up in System Setup mode and press TAP Footswitch to toggle
ON/OFF.
