SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Safety Precautions
In this manual, symbols are used to highlight warnings and cautions for you to read so that accidents can be prevented. The meanings of these symbols are as follows: This symbol indicates explanations about extremely dangerous matters. [. . . ] In pre-select mode, you first specify the desired patch and then confirm the selection. The sound will only change after you have confirmed the operation.
Changing the "Patch Call" Method
Confirm the patch change
When the desired patch is shown, press the [ ]/[ ] foot switches together. Changing the "Patch Call" Method
Changing the "Patch call" method to pre-select
To change the "Patch call" method to preselect, you must turn the unit on while holding down the [ ] foot switch.
Changing the "Patch Call" Method
Confirm
Specifying the desired patch
Use the [ ]/[ ] foot switches to select the patch you want to use next.
You can also use the [+]/[-] keys to only switch the bank.
The patch change is confirmed, the sound changes, and the display stops flashing and stays constantly lit.
Changing the "Patch call" method back to direct select
To change the "Patch call" method back to normal direct select operation, simply turn the unit off and back on again.
This will return the patch select method to the default setting.
The bank and patch number of the patch to be used next will be shown on the display, but the sound does not yet change.

Using the Feedback Suppressor
The 504 II incorporates an F. B. SUPPRESSOR that serves for reducing acoustic feedback by cutting a specific frequency range (feedback frequency). F. B. SUPPRESSOR is switched on/off and the 504 II automatically detects the feedback frequency for attenuation.
FS01
Using F. B. SUPPRESSOR in play mode
If feedback occurs while playing the instrument, the optional foot switch (FS01) connected to the CONTROL IN jack can be used to automatically detect the feedback frequency.
Using F. B. SUPPRESSOR in edit mode
The following method allows finding the feedback frequency in edit mode, either automatically or manually.
1. Insert the plug of the FS01 into the CONTROL IN jack of
the 504 II, then turn power to the 504 II on. If feedback occurs while playing the
instrument, set the [PLAY/EDIT] selector to "F. B. SUPPRESSOR". Using the Feedback Suppressor
If the FS01 is plugged into the CONTROL IN jack while the 504 II is already on, malfunction may occur. Be sure to turn on the 504 II only after connecting the foot switch.
2. Use the [+]/[-] keys to change the display
indication to "SC". If "SC" is already set, change the value and then select "SC" again, or press both [ ]/[ ] foot switches (or the foot switch FS01 connected to the CONTROL IN jack) twice, to switch the F. B. SUPPRESSOR parameter off and then on again.
3. Use the [+]/[-] keys to change the display
indication to "SC". "SC" is the attenuation setting value based on automatic detection of feedback frequency. Automatic detection starts when the F. B. SUPPRESSOR parameter is set to "SC" or set to off and then on again.
When wishing to retain the "SC" setting also while the unit is turned off, store the currently selected patch.
3. If feedback is not satisfactorily reduced by
step 2, set the F. B. SUPPRESSOR parameter to a value between 1 - 30 that yields the best reduction.
When wishing to retain the F. B. SUPPRESSOR parameter setting also while the unit is turned off, store the currently selected patch.
4. Return the [PLAY/EDIT] selector to "PLAY".

Using the Expression Pedal (FP01/FP02)
The 504 II is equipped with a CONTROL IN jack designed for connection of the optional expression pedal FP01 or FP02. The pedal can be used as volume pedal or as a controller for varying effect parameters. For information on parameters that can be adjusted with the expression pedal, please refer to pages 26 - 29.
Restoring Factory Defaults
The 504 II comes with 36 preprogrammed patches. These factory default patches can be restored also if they were overwritten by patches created by the user. "All Initialize" returns the entire set of patches to the original condition. "Factory Recall" restores a specific patch to the original condition.
1. While holding down the STORE key, plug the appropriate
cable into the INPUT jack (or DC 9V jack). Plug the cable from the FP01/FP02 into the CONTROL IN
jack of the 504 II, and then turn the 504 II on.
NOTE
To perform All Initialize
If the FP01/FP02 is plugged into the CONTROL IN jack while the 504 II is already on, malfunction may occur. [. . . ] When no pedal is used, the parameter functions as auto wah.
DELAY+REVERB
This is an effect which combines delay (delay time 210 mS) and reverb. Higher values result in deeper reverb effect and higher delay sound mixing ratio.
oF
Sets the EFFECT parameter to OFF.
PEDAL DELAY+REVERB
Allows using the expression pedal (FP01/FP02) connected to the CONTROL IN jack to adjust the delay sound mixing balance (reverb depth is fixed).
DELAY&REVERB
Mixes a delayed component and reverb component to the original sound, producing a feeling of depth and ambience.
oF
Sets the DELAY&REVERB parameter to OFF.
LARGE
Simulates the reverberation in a fairly large room. Higher values result in a deeper reverb effect.
De-AMP
This parameter serves for attenuating frequency bands that can sound harsh when an acoustic guitar is reproduced via a guitar amplifier. Choose the BRIGHT COMBO, COMBO, or STACK setting depending on the amplifier that is used, and adjust the value as required.
PEDAL LARGE Effect Parameters
Allows using the expression pedal (FP01/FP02) connected to the CONTROL IN jack to adjust the reverb sound mixing balance.
Effect Parameters
SMALL
Simulates the reverberation in a fairly small room. [. . . ]
