Spremanje i pozivanje unaprijed postavljenih postavki
The Catacombs pedal allows for 8 onboard preset locations. To save a preset, adjust the knobs to your desired sound, then press and hold the Preset/Save footswitch until the indicator lights confirm the save. To recall a preset, short press the Preset/Save footswitch to cycle through the saved locations.
Alternate Functions (ALT Mode)
Some knobs have alternate functions accessible by holding the Bypass/ALT footswitch. When in ALT mode, the indicator light will change (e.g., from blue to red as noted in some user feedback), allowing you to adjust secondary parameters. Release the footswitch to return to normal operation.
Održavanje

- Keep the pedal clean by wiping it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Rješavanje problema
| Problem | Mogući uzrok | Rješenje |
|---|---|---|
| Nema zvuka kada se aktivira pedala. | Incorrect power supply, faulty cables, incorrect input/output connections. | Verify power supply is 9V DC center-negative. Check all instrument cables. Ensure input is connected to IN and output to OUT. |
| Effect is too subtle or too extreme. | Knobs are set incorrectly, or in ALT mode unintentionally. | Adjust the relevant control knobs (Time, Feedback, Tone). Check if the pedal is in ALT mode and adjust accordingly. |
| Cannot save or recall presets. | Incorrect footswitch operation. | Uvjerite se da držite Preset/Save footswitch long enough to save. For recalling, use short presses. |
| Buka ili zujanje. | Uzemljena petlja, neispravno napajanje, smetnje. | Use an isolated power supply. Try different cables. Ensure proper grounding of all equipment. |
