Chapter 5 Setting the Pedal Functions (Pedal Assign)

Making the Parameter Settings

This sets the parameters to be controlled with Assign.

Target

This sets the parameter to be affected.

You can make adjustments to more parameters than those available in the Quick Settings.

The parameters that you can select as the target are shown below.

•Effect On/Off for each effect

•Effect parameters

•Patch Level

•Master BPM

•Foot Volume

•Bypass On/Off

•Switch for Patch Select Mode (p. 60)

•Master BPM

•MIDI Start/Stop

MIDI Start and Stop messages are output from the MIDI OUT connector, and these control the performance of the sequencer or other external MIDI device.

•MMC Start/Stop

MMC Start and Stop messages are output from the MIDI OUT connector, and these control the performance of the recorder or other external MIDI device.

•Patch Level INC/DEC (increase/decrease)

*Although you can set this so that the same target is controlled by more than one controller, in such cases make sure not to have different sources changing the parameter at the same time. Changing the parameter simultaneously while using different sources may result in noise being generated.

*The GT-6B does not transmit MIDI clock. Therefore, when MIDI Start/Stop is selected as the target, set the receiving device so its own clock is used for the performance.

Target Range (Min, Max)

The parameter value selected as the target changes within the range defined by the “Min” and “Max,” set this parameter. When using the CTL pedal, foot switch, or other controller that acts as an on/off switch, the “minimum value” (Min) is produced when you release your foot from the pedal, while depressing the pedal produces the “maximum value” (Max).

When using an expression pedal or other controller that changes values over a continuous range, the value of the setting changes accordingly within the range set by the minimum (MIN) and maximum (MAX) values.

Additionally, when the target is of an on/off type, the median value of the received data is used as the dividing line in determining whether to switch it on or off.
