Controls
Gain Knob -
This knob only controls the amount of gain on Channel 2. The G20 is designed to
be usable throughout the full range of this knob & its position also alters frequency response,
particularly in the low end & mids. Be sure to experiment!
Wide Switch -
Wide is an overall voicing change which affects both channels. Channel 1 will
receive more push as well as chimier highs & fat lows. Channel 2 will predominantly experience
an extension in the low end. Use your ears to find what’s best for you. Many of our employees &
artists have noted that in their opinion the Wide switch makes the G20 sound like a larger
amplifier.
Channel Switch -
This switch cycles between Channel 1 & 2 which will be indicated by the
amplifier’s LED color.
Aggression Switch -
The Aggression Switch controls the G20’s signature Aggression voicings.
These 3 (off, Blue, & Red) settings affect overall level of gain as well as the frequency response
of your gain channel. Like 3 channels in one! These can sound very different & could be cycled
through as crunch, rhythm, & lead tones for one example.
Store Button -
The Store Button is used to set various presets to be recalled in different
manners related to Virtual Cabinets, MIDI, & more discussed later in this manual.
Please note that the G20 features a Foot Switch jack on the rear of the amplifier. This is for our
optional Foot Switch used to control the amplifier. However, we do anticipate most users that
require floor switching to utilize the versatile MIDI control the G20 contains.
Saving Virtual Cabinets
You may choose to have each channel & Aggression setting recall a different Two notes Virtual
Cabinet! This will allow you to radically change the direct out sound of each “channel” through
not only cabinet & mic settings but also different amounts of EQ, reverb, & more.
In order to save a Virtual Cabinet to a channel or Aggression setting:
1) Select the channel and/or Aggression setting you want to save a specific Virtual Cabinet
to.
2) Select the Virtual Cabinet you would like saved with the 6 position rotary switch.
