Quick Access

Press the QUICK ACCESS button to quickly find any song (or phrase) on the G-DEC 3 or SD card and instantly play it with the current preset. This is a faster way to "audition" tracks than using the Band File menu to find

a song because Quick Access mode allows you to search for tracks in alphabetical order as well as sort tracks by location and file type.

Another exciting feature of Quick Access Mode is that it turns the G-DEC 3 soft-keys into "quick preset keys" that allow you to instantly activate your three favorite presets by pressing the QA1 / QA2 / QA3 soft-keys:
