Keeping Effect Sounds Playing After Patches
Are Switched (Patch Change Mode)
The GT-8 features a mode that is enabled when spatial effects
(such as reverb and delay) are used, whereby the effects
sound of one patch continues playing even after you switch
to the next patch. If the necessary conditions regarding the
effects chain and effect parameter settings are met, you can
then have the decay of reverb, delay, and similar effects
continue on into the next patch after you switch patches.
• Effects are in the same effects chain
• When switching the delay off or on, or when the type
and time are identical
• When switching other effects off or on, or when the
parameter settings are identical
* There still may be no reverberation in some cases, even after
the above settings are made.

Using the Identical Preamp Settings
in All Patches (Preamp Mode)
With the GT-8, you can have a preamp be set globally for use
in all patches.
This provides an effect that always gives you the sound of
the same guitar amp regardless of the patches you set.

Explanation
Fast
Patches are changed normally. The unit switches to the subse-
quent patch without any carry-over of the decay from the pre-
vious patch’s reverb or chorus.
Smooth
The unit switches to the subsequent patch with the decay from
the previous patch’s reverb or delay continued after the switch
is made.
* For smooth switching, patches may be switched with one tempo
delayed.
