This community is called guitar pedals - does that mean you use your feet for all of these different knobs?
The peg toggles (aka 'stomp switch') towards the bottom of each are designed to turn them on and off (or load a preset) with your foot on the fly. The dials are adjusted before the performance.
Interesting. Thanks for the explanation!
This community is called guitar pedals - that's why this picture of guitar pedals was posted to this community.
I didn't ask why it was posted. I asked about the functionality. You should be able to understand that I didn't know exactly what a guitar pedal was. Rather than leaving this post with 0 activity and googling it, I thought I'd ask OP to talk about this thing they are clearly proud of.
Well shit dang, I thought you were being sarcastic, not that you were a curious outsider! I apologize and welcome you to the world of stomping boxes ✌️🏻
Thanks! Now that you mention it, I can definitely see how my comment can be seen as sarcastic itself. I'm not one with words haha
