Zoom B3n How to turn Darkpre Boost off - Help!!

Guys, please can you help me out. I am in temporary posession of a B3n to try out. I am trying to replicate some patches I have on my B6.

Anyway, on the B3n for the life of me I can't work out how to turn OFF the Boost on the DarkPre model. The Zoom site states for the Boost - "This sets the frequency bands boosted when the control switch is on". Surely this indicates that it can also be switched off ?  but I just can't work it out. Twiddling the dial underneath the Boost display just turns it between Lo, Hi and Lo & Hi. There is no OFF. 

I really would like to turn the boost fully off. Can any owners out there help ?

I'm not sure as I haven't used any effects which use the "control switch" (there are a few others), but I can only think that the footswitch for the effect doesn't switch the effect entirely on or off but just controls the relevant parameters.

When you load it up in stomp mode, the DarkPre takes up two footswitches on the board. The one one the left engages/disengages the effect, the one on the right turns the boost on/off. I'd assume the boost is off by default.

Yes, perfect. You are spot on. Thanks so much. I thought I had tried every configuration of switching, but I hadn't tried that !
