The structure of an VoFX Program is logical, and it doesn't require a lot of time to master. To Select Programs in the VoFX: 1) After you power up, use the Data wheel to scroll through the Programs. As you scroll, the effect group and footswitch LEDs turn on and off. These LEDs indicate which effects are used in each Program, and which Program in the Bank is selected. There are 13 effect groupings printed on the front panel of the VoFX. 9 are digital effect groups (delay, reverb, etc. ) , and 4 cover the preamp section (compression, Mic Driver, EQ). Each group has its own LED that indicates the status of each group. If the Effect LED is lit continuously, an effect in the indicated group is active. If the LED is not lit, no effects in the group are active. If the LED is flashing, edit mode is active, and effects in the group can be selected using the Data wheel. Directly below each vertical group are the <Effect Selector buttons>. These buttons allow you to select and/or bypass effects in the VoFX. The following things happen when you use the Effect Selector buttons: · When you select a bypassed effect, its group LED begins flashing and the dis play shows two dashes, indicating that the effect is selected but bypassed. (Pressing the Select button again activates the effect. ) · When you select an active effect, its group LED begins flashing and the dis play shows the number of the currently selected effect.
