Returning the ME-50B to Its 
Factory Settings (Factory Reset)
You can restore all of the ME-50B’s settings (24 patches and 
tuner reference pitch) to what they were at the time the unit

This is referred to as “Factory Reset.”

Adjusting the Expression Pedal
Although the ME-50B’s expression pedal has been set for 
optimum operation at the factory, extended use and the 
operating environment can result in the pedal going out of 
adjustment.
If you encounter problems such as being unable to switch the 
PEDAL MODE SW on or off or fully cut off the sound with 
the volume pedal, you can use the following procedure to 
readjust the pedal.
When you operate the expression pedal, please be 
careful not to get your fingers pinched between the 
movable part and the panel.
In households with small children, an adult should 
provide supervision until the child is capable of 
following all the rules essential for the safe 
operation of the unit.

] and 
[WRITE], turn on the power.

[WRITE].

4. Adjust the PEDAL MODE SW.
Press BANK [
] [
] to set the value (1–9).

mode.
