Chapter 8 Convenient Features of the GT-6B

Adjusting the Overall Sound to Match the Usage Environment (Global)

The GT-6B includes a feature that allows you to change all of the patch settings temporarily. This is called the “Global function.”

1.Press [UTILITY], then press PARAMETER [ ]

[ ] to display the following screen.

Global: Noise Suppressor Threshold

Global: Reverb Level

2.Rotate the PATCH/VALUE dial to change the setting’s value.

NS Thrshold (Noise Suppressor Threshold) -20 dB–+20 dB

Adjusts the noise suppressor threshold level settings for each patch in a range from -20 dB to +20 dB.

This adjustment is an effective way to get equivalent output with each of your basses when you are connecting more than one bass.

*Set to “0 dB” when using this in individual patch settings.

*This has no effect on patches in which the noise suppressor is turned off.

Revrb Level (Reverb Level) 0%–200%

Adjusts the reverb level settings for each patch in a range from 0% to 200%.

Adjusting the reverb level is an effective way to match the reverberation of the performance venue.

*Set to “100%” when using this in individual patch settings.

*This has no effect on patches in which reverb is turned off.

Using the Digital Out

Digital signals are output from the DIGITAL OUT connector on the rear panel. You can connect this directly to the digital in connector of a digital recorder or other device and record with no degradation in sound quality.
