Parameter

Value

Explanation

1

RATE

0–100, BPM

Adjusts the speed of the vibrato.

  • When this is set to “BPM”, you can check the tempo by watching the CHECK indicator blink, or by checking the BPM parameter.

DEPTH

0–100

Adjusts the strength of the vibrato.

RISE TIME

0–100

This parameter adjusts the amount of time it takes for the vibrato to reach maximum once the pedal is pressed.

2

MODE

UNLATCH, BYPASS, LATCH

Switches between the three modes.

UNLATCH: unlatch. Vibrato is applied only while you hold down the pedal. The DSP is bypassed when the vibrato effect is off (this simulates a bypassed sound through a BBD).

BYPASS: Vibrato is toggled on/off each time you press the pedal. This works as an analog bypass when the vibrato effect is off.

LATCH: latch. The vibrato effect is toggled on/off each time you press the pedal. The DSP is bypassed when the vibrato effect is off (this simulates a bypassed sound through a BBD).

BPM

40–250

Adjusts the tempo if “BPM” is selected for RATE.

  • This is only shown when RATE is set to “BPM”.

 

3

CTL1 TARGET

OFF, RATE, DEPTH, RISE TIME, TAP

Selects the parameter to control from a footswitch connected to CTL1.

CTL1 MODE

MOMENT, TOGGLE

Selects the operation mode for the footswitch that’s connected to CTL1.

CTL1 VALUE

0–100

Sets the value for the parameter that’s controlled from a footswitch connected to CTL1.

4

CTL2 TARGET

OFF, RATE, DEPTH, RISE TIME, TAP

Selects the parameter to control from a footswitch connected to CTL2.

CTL2 MODE

MOMENT, TOGGLE

Selects the operation mode for the footswitch connected to CTL2.

CTL2 VALUE

0–100

Selects the value for the parameter that’s controlled from a footswitch connected to CTL2.

5

EXP TARGET

OFF, RATE, DEPTH, RISE TIME, BPM

Selects the parameter controlled by an external expression pedal connected to the EXP jack.

EXP MIN

0–100

Sets the minimum value for the parameter controlled by an expression pedal connected to the EXP jack.

EXP MAX

0–100

Sets the maximum value for the parameter controlled by an expression pedal connected to the EXP jack.

6

PEDAL MODE

MOMENT, TOGGLE

Selects the operation mode for the pedal switch on the PX-1.

ACTION

OFF Ó ON, ON Ó OFF

Sets how the pedal switch on this unit operates when PEDAL MODE is set to “MOMENT”.
