Chapter 4 Introduction to Effects and Parameters
Creating Harmonist Scales (User Scale)
When “Harmony” is set to any value from -2oct to +2oct, and
the harmony does not sound the way you intend, use a “User
scale.”
You can set any of 29 different “User scales.”
1.
Press [FX-2], then press PARAMETER [
] [
] so
that “FX Select” is displayed.
2.
Rotate the PATCH/VALUE dial to select “HR.”
3.
Press PARAMETER [
] [
] to select “HR1
Harm” (or “HR2 Harm”), then rotate the PATCH/
VALUE dial to select a setting from “Scale 1-29.”
4.
Press PARAMETER [
] a number of times so that
the User scale settings screen is displayed.

5.
Press PARAMETER [
] [
] to move the cursor,
then rotate the PATCH/VALUE dial to set the User
scale.
User:
You can change the number of the user scale.
DIR (Direct):
Sets the note name of the input sound. You can also play
individual notes on the guitar and let the GT-8 interpret
the note name.
EFF (Effect):
Sets the note name of the output sound.
The triangle next to the note name indicates the octave.
One downward-pointing triangle indicates a note one
octave below the note displayed; two triangles indicates
a two-octave drop.
One upward-pointing triangle indicates a note one
octave above the note displayed; two triangles indicates
a two-octave rise.
PS (Pitch Shifter)
This effect changes the pitch of the original sound (up or
down) within a range of two octaves.
*1
With Voice set to 2-Mono or 2-Stereo, you can select two
sounds.
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
Voice
1-Voice, 2-Mono,
2-Stereo
Selects the number of voices for the pitch
shift sound.
1-Voice
One-voice pitch-shifted sound output in monaural.
2-Mono
Two-voice pitch-shifted sound (PS1, PS2) output in monaural.
2-Stereo
Two-voice pitch-shifted sound (PS1, PS2) output through left and
right channels.
Mode *1
Fast, Medium, Slow,
Mono
Selection for the pitch shifter mode.
A chord can be input with a normal pitch shifter. The response is
slower in the order of Fast, Medium and Slow, but the modulation is
lessened in the same order.
“Mono” is used for inputting single notes.
Use this setting when you want to achieve a pedal bend effect with
an external EXP pedal.
Pitch *1
-24–+24
Adjusts the amount of pitch shift (the
amount of pitch change) in semitone steps.
Fine *1
-50–+50
Make fine adjustments to the pitch shift.
The amount of the change in the Fine “100” is equivalent to that of
the Pitch “1.”
Pre Delay *1
0 ms –300 ms,
BPM
–BPM
Adjusts the time from when the direct
sound is heard until the pitch shifted sounds
are heard. Normally you can leave this set at
“0ms.”
* When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according to
the value of the Master BPM (p. 51) specified for each patch. This makes
it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song (synchronizing the time to twice or four times the time length of
the BPM when the set time is increased).
When setting to BPM, press PARAMETER [
] several times to
display the Master BPM settings screen.
Feedback
0–100
Adjusts the feedback amount of the pitch
shift sound.
Level *1
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the pitch shift sound
Direct Level
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.
