Chapter 4 Controlling the Styles with a Foot Switch
You can use a foot switch (such as the optional FS-5U) to start and 
stop performances and switch verses (p. 44). This is convenient, as 
it allows you to switch the Patterns with your foot.
You can connect up to two foot switches.
When using the special cable (PCS-31), the foot switch connected 
with the white-striped plug is used to start and stop 
performances, and the foot switch connected with the red-striped 
plug is used to switch verses (as set at the factory).
Starting and Stopping Performances
You can use a foot switch to start and stop the performance of 
Styles and songs (p. 85).
1.
With the performance stopped, press the foot switch.
When [MANU] or [AUTO] is lit:
 performance of the Style begins 
from the intro.
When [SONG] is lit:
 performance of the song begins.
2.
Press the foot switch while the performance is in progress.
When [MANU] or [AUTO] is lit: 
the ending is played, and then 
the performance stops.
When [SONG] is lit: 
the song stops.
Switching Verses
You can press the foot switch during performance of the Style to 
have a fill-in inserted in the current verse and then switch to the 
next verse. For example, if you press the foot switch while Verse 
A is playing, the DR-3 inserts a fill-in B and switches to Verse B.
1.
Press the foot switch while the performance is in progress.
A fill-in is inserted, and the DR-3 switches to the verse following 
the verse currently being played.
Pressing the foot switch while Verse A is playing switches the 
performance to Verse B, pressing the foot switch during Verse B 
switches the performance to Verse C, and pressing the foot switch 
during Verse C switches the performance to Verse A.
By continuing to press the foot switch, you can select subsequent 
verses according to the number of times you press the foot switch.
Pressing the switch while the performance is in progress switches 
the DR-3 to the next verse specified for the song.
For instructions on connecting 
the foot switch, refer to 
“Connecting the Foot Switch” 
(p. 29).

switch jack is shown at below.

NOTE
During recording or editing in 
Edit mode (p. 38), depressing 
the foot switch will have no 
effect. 
If two foot switches are 
connected, press the foot 
switch connected using the 
plug with the white ring.
When connecting two foot 
switches, press the foot switch 
connected using the plug with 
the red ring. If you have only 
one foot switch connected, use 
the procedure described in the 
following section “Assigning 
Functions to the Foot Switch” 
to assign “VERSE, LOOP” to 
the foot switch.
