The following is from the official website
Features
Equipped with HTS (Holistic Tonal Solution) circuit.
Custom-made footswitches are used for quiet clicking and quick response for quick operation.
The distance between footswitches is 70mm, and by changing the angle of the first and second footswitches, the layout is easy to operate despite the small chassis size.
A dedicated panel for presets and settings is provided. The hierarchy of the edit menu has been minimized as much as possible, dramatically improving operability. There is no need to spend a lot of time for editing.
Preset and bank edit functions (copy, delete) are provided.
By switching the DISPLAY mode, the program change number for each MIDI channel currently being transmitted can be checked at a glance.
To prevent moisture, such as perspiration, from directly entering the internal circuit board, the LED above the footswitch is lensed, and a felt sheet is affixed to the back of the display unit.
A strong plastic mold type phone jack is used. It is safe for long-term use.
