[. . . ] When the LED is not lit, the current Program is a permanent Factory Program in the Factory bank. Using The Footswitches The TEC8's pedalboard consists of four footswitches. The far right footswitch is the Bank selector, and the remaining three are Program selectors. There are 10 User Banks in the TEC8, each with 3 Programs for a total of 30 User Programs. There are also 30 Factory Programs that can be selected using the Data wheel only. User Programs in any of the Banks can be recalled in one of two ways: 5 Signal Processing Signal Processing 1) by pressing the Bank select footswitch followed by footswitch 1, 2, or 3. To Select Programs using the footswitches: 1) After you power up, the TEC8 defaults to Program mode. The display shows the selected bank number on the left side of the display and a dash on the right. The display might look something like this: 2_ 1 2 or 3 2) Press footswitch 1, 2, or 3. The dash in the display changes to show the number of the Program you selected. The display might look something like this: 23 NOTE: If a new Program number is not selected within 5 seconds after pressing the Bank select button, the display returns to its previous setting. Editing Programs As you become more familiar with the TEC8, you may find that you need to modify certain Programs to better fit your needs. Fortunately, the TEC8 is flexible enough to give you everything you need without being difficult to program. Suppose that Program 63 (which has an Arena reverb, 250 ms Mono Delay, a Tremolo, Noise Gate, EQ, and Compression) sounds close to what you want, but you want a 300 ms delay with low feedback instead. Here's how to change it: DATA 1) Use the Data wheel, or the Bank and Program selector footswitches to select Program 63. 2) Press the Delay effect Group button. The Mono Delay Group Status LED begins flashing and the display reads: 25 6 Signal Processing Signal Processing Mono Delay 1-9 11-19 21-29 31-39 41-49 51-59 61-69 100ms 200ms 250ms 300ms 350ms 400ms 500ms 3) Look at the front panel Delay groupings to locate the effect you want. In this case, you'll see that the 300 ms mono delays can be found between 31 and 39 in the Mono Delay (not Multi-Delay) effect Group. DATA 4) Use the Data wheel to scroll until the the display reads: 3. 1 NOTE: When you change the selected Parameter from the stored value, a decimal point appears in the bottom right corner of the display and the Store LED lights. You can manipulate any effect setting in the TEC8 by pressing the associated Effect Group selector button on the front panel and turning the Data wheel. The Effect Group buttons also toggle the effects on and off with each successive press of the button. When you're editing Programs, be sure to pay attention to the flashing Status LEDs. IMPORTANT: If you want to store your custom Program so you can use it later, follow the procedure on the next page. Expression Pedal Assign The TEC8 Expression Pedal can be assigned to control 1 of 10 different parameters in a program. This adds a whole new dimension in your sound by letting you make real-time effects changes during performance. Changing the pedal's assignment is accomplished the same as editing any other effect group in your program. [. . . ] Each delay time has a feedback ratio (number of repeats) and level associated with each number. Here is an example of how each delay time works: Each Mono Delay time has 9 selections. These selections consist of 3 different feedbacks (number of repeats) and 3 different levels. For example, a Mono 200ms number 15 would have a 200ms delay time, a feedback of 30%, and a level of 30.
