Hi! You’ve just dramatically expanded the capabilities of your Soft Focus DLX! You can use the SFX Tap to control your Soft Focus DLX and/or another pedal that might require a tap tempo.

To connect to the Soft Focus DLX: Using a TRS (two stripes) cable, connect the SFX Tap to the Soft Focus DLX using the jack labeled “DLX” on the Tap, to the EXP/TAP jack on the Soft Focus DLX. Plugging in the SFX Tap will take over the “Time” knob and simulate an expression pedal that is tuned to the BPM of your tapping. Program 6 hijacks the expression jack for a volume swell effect and tap tempo will not behave as expected, therefore tap tempo is not recommended when using this program.

To connect to another pedal’s tap input: Connect the jack marked “TAP” to your other pedal’s tap tempo jack using a standard TS (one stripe) cable. The SFX Tap uses a normally-open switch for maximum compatibility so please make sure your device uses this type of configuration.

To use both: Follow the above instructions and use the SFX Tap as a master clock for both effects!

The SFX Tap runs on the operating voltage of the Soft Focus DLX and requires no external power.

Catalinbread

In the current JustPedals catalogue, Catalinbread is represented by Delay Pedals, Preamp & DI Pedals and Reverb Pedals. Current listings include Fuzzrite, Formula 55 and EG1 Lo-Fi delay. That makes the range relevant to players looking for drive, gain and clipping, plus time-based effects and ambience. Check each model for its exact circuit or processing platform, controls, power requirements and connections, particularly where the catalogue includes both pedals and supporting gear.

Specialist Effects Pedals

Specialist effects alter the signal in ways that do not sit cleanly inside one established family. They may use granular processing, frequency shifting, resonators, freeze or sustain, bit reduction, ring modulation, feedback networks or combinations of several techniques. The relevant distinction is the underlying process, its tracking or latency, and how completely the dry signal can be blended or replaced.

Tags

Expression Input

An expression input accepts an external pedal or control source to move one or more parameters in real time. Compatibility depends on socket wiring, resistance range, polarity and the control assignment supplied by the product. Check whether a TS or TRS cable is required, which functions can be mapped, whether the input supplies power and whether the expression pedal needs a minimum or maximum calibration routine.

Tap Tempo

Tap tempo lets a player set delay, modulation, tremolo or looper timing by tapping a footswitch. The implementation may be a dedicated switch, an external input, MIDI clock or a combination, and the supported timing divisions vary. Check whether the tempo is stored, whether tap is momentary or latching, how quickly the effect follows changes and which blocks respond. Tap tempo is useful only when the control connection and timing range match the workflow.
