Chapter 4 Introduction to Effects and Parameters

Master

Parameter	Value
Patch Level	0–200
Master BPM	40–250

Patch Level

This adjusts the output volume of the GS-10.

Master BPM

Adjust the BPM value for each patch.

*BPM (beats per minute) indicates the number of quarter note beats that occur each minute.

*When you have an external MIDI device connected, the Master BPM synchronizes to the external MIDI device’s tempo, making it impossible to set the Master BPM. To enable setting of the Master BPM, set “MIDI Sync Clock” (p. 69) to Internal.

Control with the Master BPM

To input the Master BPM with the foot switch, set “Assign” as follows.

Quick Setting (p. 60)

P11: MSTR BPM TAP

Manual Settings (p. 61)

Set ASSIGN to ON and set the following as shown.

Target:	Master BPM (Tap)
Target Min:	Off
Target Max:	On
Source:	CTL 1 (or CTL 2)
Source Mode:	Normal
Act.Range Lo:	0
Act.Range Hi:	127

*When controlling the Assigns with the foot switch, the system parameter CTL 1 Func (or CTL 2 Func) must be set to “Assign 1-8” (p. 58, p. 59).

Foot Volume

This is a volume control effect.

Usually, this is controlled to the expression pedal.

ParameterValue

Level

Adjusts the volume.

Effect Chain

Here’s how you can change the order in which the effects are connected.

1.Press [NAME/NS/MASTER] until “Effect Chain” appears in the display.

*With each press of [NAME/NS/MASTER], you move to the next item that can be set, in this order:

Name → Noise Suppressor → Master → Foot Volume → Effect Chain.

*Effects are shown in lowercase letters when turned off.

2.Use the PATCH/VALUE dial or PARAMETER [ ]

[ ] to move the cursor to the point where you want to have an effect inserted.

3.Press the On/Off button for the effect you want to insert.

The selected effect is inserted at the cursor position.

* Use [ASSIGN] to assign Foot Volume.

4.If you want to change the sequence further, repeat Steps 2 and 3.

5.If you want to save the sequence you’ve set up, use the Write procedure (p. 25) to save it to a User patch.

Press [EXIT] to return to the Play screen.

Effects can be switched on and off even while making the settings for the connection order. With effects appearing to the left and right of the cursor, the ON/ OFF button corresponding to the effect can be pressed to turn them on/off.
