the fade up is complete and the volume is at

HINT
Applications of this would include imitating
the slow attack of other instrument sounds
like a softly-bowed violin, or a pedal steel
guitar. Since Auto Volume cuts off the pick-
ing sound and slowly brings up the level, it
is ideal for playing soft, lyrical solos.
Note: The low volume of this function (or the
level at which the fade in starts) is deter-
mined by the Minimum Volume parameter.
(See page 47.)

Setting the AUTO VOLUME Rate —
AUTO VOL
When using the ASSIGNABLE Block Pedal
Switch to control the Auto Volume (see page 48),
this parameter determines the rate (speed) at which
the volume automatically fades up.
Operation —
1. From the Manual mode, repeatedly press the
Utility button until “AT VOL” is shown in
the display.
2. Use the [–]/[+] buttons to set the desired
Auto Volume Rate. (Range: 1–10)
A minimum setting of “1” results in a slow
fade in, while a maximum of “10” results in a
nearly instantaneous return to normal level.
