Confirming Previous Value after Parameter Change

During or after adjusting a parameter, you can confirm its value before storing your change.
1. Adjust the desired parameter as described in this manual.
2. The LEDs above the PRESET SELECT/TAP switch illuminate to move left/rightward showing the status before change and
the current status.
NOTE
PRESET 1 or 2 LED Illuminated: The PARAMETER encoder is in the counterclockwise direction (minus parameter value) comparing the current
position with the preset position.
PRESET 3 or 4 LED Illuminated: The PARAMETER encoder is in the clockwise direction (plus parameter value) comparing the current position
with the preset position.
PRESET 2 and 3 LEDs Illuminated: The knob is at the PARAMETER encoder position defined in the preset (original parameter value).
Recalling a Preset
FF-1Y's presets can be recalled in various ways depending on your application.
Switching Four Presets (1)
1. Press the PRESET SELECT/TAP switch for about 0.5 seconds.
NOTE
When the PRESET SELECT/TAP switch is pressed, the preset changes as follows: PRESET 1  PRESET 2  PRESET 3  PRESET 4  PRESET 1...
Switching Four Presets (2)
1. Connect a momentary (unlatch) type switch to the EXT terminal.
2. Press the PRESET switch for about 2 seconds.
3. Turn the PARAMETER encoder until the display shows "1-4."
4. Press the PARAMETER encoder. The display returns to its previous status.
5. Press the external switch.
NOTE
Each press of the external switch immediately changes presets as follows: PRESET 1  PRESET 2  PRESET 3  PRESET 4  PRESET 1...
Switching Presets between 1 and 2 Alternately
1. Connect a momentary (unlatch) type switch to the EXT terminal.
2. Press the PRESET switch for about 2 seconds.
3. Turn the PARAMETER encoder until the display shows "1-2."
4. Press the PARAMETER encoder. The display returns to its previous status.
5. Press the external switch.
NOTE
Each press of the external switch toggles the presets as follows: PRESET 1  PRESET 2  PRESET 1  PRESET 2  PRESET 1...

Recalling Preset 128 Immediately
1. Connect a momentary (unlatch) type switch to the EXT terminal.
2. Press the PRESET switch for about 2 seconds.
3. Turn the PARAMETER encoder until the display shows "128."
4. Press the PARAMETER encoder. The display returns to its previous status.
5. Press the external switch.
NOTE
By pressing the external switch, Preset 128 is recalled. When the same switch is pressed again, the previous preset comes back.
The recalled preset is shown in the display for about 0.5 seconds.
Recalling Preset with PARAMETER Encoder
1. Press the PRESET switch to flash the display.
2. Turn the PARAMETER encoder to show the preset you want to recall.
3. Press the PARAMETER encoder to recall the selected preset.
Recalling Preset with PRESET SELECT/TAP Switch
You can connect a momentary (unlatch) type switch to the FF-1Y's EXT terminal and use this switch to recall presets in
several ways. The PRESET SELECT/TAP switch can also be used to perform the same function.
This enables you to perform a preset recall and tempo entry in various ways.
Assigning Function to PRESET SELECT/TAP Switch  p.16
Recalling Preset with MIDI Signal from External Device
When a MIDI signal containing a program change number is received from an external MIDI device, the FF-1Y changes
its preset. The MIDI channel of the device sending the program change number must be the same as the FF-1Y's MIDI
channel.
Setting up MIDI Receiving Channel  p.16
Setting Delay Unit
Delay length (duration) can be set in BPM or msec unit.
1. Press the A-DLY-B SEL switch to select the delay (A, B, or A+B) whose delay length unit you want to set.
2. Press the DISP switch to turn on the BPM or mS LED.
NOTE
BPM: Beat Per Minute. Used to show the tempo of performance indicated by the number of quarter notes (crotchets) counted in one
minute (60 seconds).
msec: Short for millisecond. 1 millisecond is equal to one thousandth of a second.
ex) 100 msec = 0.1 seconds. Delay time can be set from 1 msec to 9,999 msec (about 10 seconds).
