The MXR Layers Pedal blooms with rich, organic sustain that imbues every strum and pluck with resonance and depth—pull off chord voicings you never thought possible, compose transcendent melodies, orchestrate harmonic ensembles, create lively stereo pads, and more—all from a standard MXR housing. USE A KEYBOARD SUSTAIN PEDAL OR OTHER EXTERNAL SWITCH TO TRIGGER LAYERS A keyboard sustain pedal or other external switch can be used to trigger layers instead of the built-in footswitch if the built-in footswitch is inaccessible (e.g. during desktop use) or a different tactile response is desired. First, set the CTR switch to its TAP/EXP (left) position. Next, run a standard instrument cable from the external pedal/ switch to the MXR Layers Pedal’s CTR jack. Note that the external pedal/switch must be a normally-open discrete switch and not a continuous TRS switch. USE AN EXPRESSION PEDAL TO BLEND BETWEEN TWO SETTING CONFIGURATIONS An expression pedal such as the DVP5 Volume (X)TM8 Pedal can be used to toggle and sweep between two different setting configurations. First, set the CTR switch to its TAP/EXP (left) position. Next, run a TRS cable from the expression pedal to Layers Pedal’s CTR jack. Set rocker to its heel-down position. Adjust knobs, and set mode buttons as desired. Move rocker to its toe-down position. Adjust knobs and mode buttons as desired to a different setting configuration. Moving the rocker back and forth will transition smoothly between the sounds created
