3. Oppsett

3.1 Tilkobling av fotbryteren

  1. Locate the 1/4" (6.35 mm) stereo (TRS) input jack on your compatible device (e.g., BeatBuddy, MIDI Maestro, multi-effects pedal).
  2. Connect one end of the included 1/4" TRS cable to the Footswitch Plus.
  3. Connect the other end of the 1/4" TRS cable to the designated footswitch input on your device.

Viktig: A TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) cable must be used for both switches to function correctly. If a mono (TS) cable is used, only one switch may send a signal.

3.2 Polarity and Mode Settings

Some devices may require specific polarity or mode settings for external footswitches. Consult your device's manual for details on configuring external footswitches. The Singular Sound Footswitch Plus operates as a momentary switch, sending a signal only while pressed.

4. Bruksanvisning

4.1 Grunnleggende funksjonalitet

The Footswitch Plus features two momentary switches. When pressed, each switch sends a signal to the connected device. The specific action performed depends on how the connected device is configured to respond to external footswitch inputs.

4.2 Usage with BeatBuddy

When used with a BeatBuddy, the Footswitch Plus allows for hands-free control of various functions, including:

  • Adding accent hits
  • Triggering drum breaks
  • Setting tap tempo
  • Selecting genres and songs

Refer to your BeatBuddy's user manual for detailed instructions on assigning these functions to the external footswitches.

For multi-effects pedals and other electronic instruments, the Footswitch Plus can be configured to control various parameters or functions as supported by the host device. Always consult the specific device's manual for external control setup and customization options.

5. Vedlikehold

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Footswitch Plus, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

  • Rengjøring: Tørk av enheten med en myk, tørr klut. Unngå bruk av slipende rengjøringsmidler eller løsemidler.
  • Lagring: Store the footswitch in a dry environment, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
  • Håndtering: While sturdy, avoid dropping the unit or subjecting it to excessive force.

6. Feilsøking

6.1 Only One Switch Responds

If only one of the two footswitches is responding, ensure you are using a 1/4" stereo (TRS) cable. A mono (TS) cable will typically only activate one of the two switches.

6.2 Incorrect Footswitch Behavior

If the footswitch is not performing the expected action (e.g., latching instead of momentary, or vice-versa), check the settings on your connected device. Some devices have configurable footswitch modes (momentary, latching, polarity) that need to be set correctly for external switches.
