At 1st launch  a Help screen is shown





Footswitch Settings - TAP targets



Footswitch Settings - HOLD targets



Footswitch Settings 3+4 - TAP (same target choices for other two footswitch combos )


CTRL/EXP



A Current Settings screen shows a summary of all user control assignments per patch



The CTRL setting  you can control several FX Targets



EXPRESSION 1  - the Volume pedal "curve can be user selected (Linear, Exponential, Logarithmic) curves



EXPRESSION PEDALS can target four FX Parameters   - therefore many old school Boss GT Expression Pedal morphing tricks also work with AMPERO !




and the three Knobs under LCD can be configured as "Quick Access Knobs" to control specific parameters unique per patch

Are control/expression assignments possible via the onboard user interface, or just via the offboard editor?

Either works ,
Watch the tutorial videos that demonstrate either onboard ecpression setup or mac/ win GUI editor

Below is how to program Expression pedal right on the unit

Version 1.2.1
Released 6/6/2019

Precaution

IMPORTANT - Use with V3.0 firmware ONLY. The new software will no longer recognize Ampero units with previous firmware (V2.1 and earlier).
The patches of the earlier firmware versions are now not compatible with this V3.0 firmware due to the new features and fatal changes, which means, after updating firmware, ALL YOUR PATCHES IN YOUR AMPERO WILL BE REPLACED BY THE NEW FACTORY/USER PATCHES, AND YOUR CUSTOM IR FILES WILL ALSO BE CLEARED.
Please be sure to export the patches you want to keep by using Ampero Editor V1.1.1 (with V2.1 firmware) before updating. After updating, you can import them via new Ampero Editor (The Editor will automatically convert your old patch files to new version so that you can use them with V3.0 firmware).
If you accidentally updated to the new firmware before backing up your patches, to get the old patches back, you can roll back to earlier firmware versions (load earlier firmware files when updating) before you edit/save patches with new firmware.
