Each patch in the DG Stomp is represented with three digit numbers such as [111]. The first number
is the Group, second number is the Bank, and the third number is the Patch.
To select patch numbers:
1. Press footswitch number 1 to call up the first patch:

The patches are arranged in two areas: 90 User and 90 Preset. Each of the 90 patch sets are stored
into 10 GroupsGroups consisting of 3 BanksBanks with 3 PatchesPatches in each. This format is commonly used in order
to access larger numbers of patches using a limited number of footswitches.

located from [0.11] to [9.33], and can be distinguished by a small dot after the first number.
To change the Groups:
1. To select the next series of patchs and bank, you must change [GROUPS].
2. Hold footswitch number 4 down for 1 second.
3. Hold footswitch number 2 down to access [GROUP DOWN[ or footswitch 3 for [GROUP UP].
4. Release footswitch when the desired group number is located
5. Press footswitch number 1 to select [BANK 1] in the new group.
6. Press footswitch number 1 to select [PATCH 1] in the new bank.

AMPAMP TYPES TYPES
The Yamaha DG Stomp includes 8 of the world’s greatest modern and vintage amplifier types and
14 effects including various types of modulation, delay, and reverb. The amp types and tone controls
can be selected and/or edited using a simple row of knobs and buttons.
NORMALORMAL MODEMODE
There are two modes used to edit parameters. The first is Normal Mode:
When editing an existing patch in real time, there will be a point that must be reached while turning
the knob, before your new setting will take effect . The [UP] or [DOWN] button will light up at the
same time the parameter value flashes in the display until you reach the point of the preset param-
eter. Once you reach that point, your new setting will take effect, the button light will stop flashing,
and the display will show the new parameter value.
MANUALMANUAL MODEMODE
The second and most popular method of editing is called [MANUALMODE]. You can edit the pre-
amp and effects in real time much like a stompbox. Once you engage Manual Mode, all of the
parameters reflect the existing position of the knobs and NOT the preset patch.
Selecting An Amp TypeSelecting An Amp Type
1. Press MANUAL button.
2. Turn the PREAMP selector knob to one of the 8 pre-amp types (see AMP DESCRIPTION).
Using The Tone ControlsUsing The Tone Controls
1. You can shape the tone of each amp type with the designated knob. Grab the knob and turn it

TAPTAP TEMPOTEMPO DELAYDELAY
The Tap Tempo Delay allows you to set the tempo (speed) of the delay effect in real time with
one of the footswitches.
To use Tap Tempo Delay:
1. Turn the DELAY to the ON position or select a patch with delay.
2. Step on the tap tempo switch, four times to the desired tempo.
3. You will notice the red light above the switch begin to blink to the tempo you tapped.
COOLCOOL TIP:TIP:
SOUNDSOUND ONON SOUNDSOUND DELAYDELAY
You can achieve an interesting type of sound-on-sound delay using the delay and expression pedal
assigned to specific parameters of the delay.
1. Turn the [DELAY] effect ON on by pressing the [TAPE ECHO] button.
2. Turn the [DELAY TIME] knob up to 10.
3. Turn the [DELAY FEEDBACK] knob up to 10.
4. Turn the [DELAYLEVEL] knob to the “2 o’clock” position.
5. Play a guitar riff once. After you have played the lick, it will start repeating.
6. Turn the [DELAY LEVEL] knob from “2 o'clock” back to "0".
7. Begin playing over the repeating lick.
After you played the "lick" using the [Clean 2] amp setting, turn the amp select dial to [LEAD 1] and
solo over the clean lick with a distortion sound. Make sure you don't select another memory patch
when doing this, or your "looped lick" that is repeating will disappear.
HANDSHANDS FREEFREE CONTROLCONTROL
Try using an expression pedal for hands free control of the DELAY LEVEL. See the section of this
guide on USINGAN EXPRESSION PEDAL.
The [DELAY LEVEL] control can be assigned to a Yamaha FC7 expression pedal. When pushed down
3/4 of the way, it will simulate the “2'oclock” setting of the [DELAY LEVEL] knob, allowing you to play
your riff, back it off all the way, so the "level" setting goes to "0" and play over your lick.

EFFECTEFFECT MODEMODE
Effect mode allows you to use three of the footswitches to turn effects on and off. While in the EFFECT
MODE, pedals 1 through 3 are dedicated to Modulation, Delay, and Reverb ON and OFF functions.

a Yamaha FC7 you can have the WAH turned on, but will not be activated until you press down hard
on the toe position. The pedal will lightly click and turn the wah effect on.
To patch the expression pedal for controlling the wah, use the following procedure:
PROGRAMMINGPROGRAMMING ANAN EXPRESSIONEXPRESSION PEDALPEDAL TOTO CONTROLCONTROL WAHWAH
1. Plug the FC7 into the Exp. Pedal INPUT jack.
2. While in PLAY mode, press the MANUAL and UTILITY buttons simultaneously.

pedal until it clicks.

CONNECTINGCONNECTING AA MIDIMIDI PEDALBOARDPEDALBOARD
Although the DG Stomp has a built-in footcontroller, you can connect a MIDI pedalboard such as
the Yamaha MFC10 for even more control and flexibility. The MFC10 includes 10 footswitches for
changing patches, a function switch for changing controller modes, and an expression pedal for
controlling volume and other parameters via MIDI.
To connect an MFC10 MIDI Foot Controller to the DG Stomp:
1. Connect a MIDI cable from MIDIOUT on the pedalboard to MIDI IN on the DG Stomp.
2. Press footswitch number 1 on the pedalboard to call up patch [011] on the DGStomp.
3. Press footwitch number 2 on the MIDI pedalboard to call up patch [012] and so on.
NOTE:NOTE:
One advantage of having an MFC10 is that you can have instant access to 10 patches at a time
(instead of 3) before having to press the function pedal to get to the next round of patches.
