General Control
General control of the G-Force is accomplished by dialing the Parameter wheel to
change parameters, and the Value wheel to change values. In many of the displays
you can select different menus by pressing the < > Arrow keys e.g., in the Effects
display you can select between Mix, Edit, Routing and Layout. Press Enter to carry
out an action (for example, when recalling a preset).
Recall
Press Recall (if you are not already there). Be sure that the cursor is placed on
“Preset”, and dial the Value wheel to scroll through the presets. Press Enter to load
the new preset.
Quick Store
If you want to store a preset with the same name, press Store to access the Store
menu, and press Enter to confirm. The G-Force will now automatically store your
preset in the first free User space, using the current name. When you try to restore
an existing User preset, the G-Force will default to the same User preset number.
Editing
Press Effects and select the Edit display using the < > Arrow keys. Double click the
bypass key of the block you want to edit.
Setting up your MIDI board
Press I/O Setup and select MIDI using the < > Arrow keys. Adjust the MIDI basic
channel so it matches the one of your foot controller. Be sure that Program Change
is enabled. Your foot controller should now be able to change presets on the G-
Force. If you want to recall User presets via MIDI, scroll down to Mapping Mode
and select “into User bank” by turning the Value wheel.
Setting up an Expression Pedal
Connect your pedal with a mono guitar cable to the External Control In. Press I/O
Setup and select Control using the < > Arrow keys.
In this list there are a number of things that can be controlled by an Expression
pedal. Let’s set up control of the Main volume. Place the cursor on “Main Vol” -
Press Enter (for Learning) and move your pedal. The G-Force will now
automatically detect your pedal.
The functions of Ext. 1-8 are set up in the Modifiers Matrix.
Input/Output
Use the Input/Output knobs in the upper left corner of the front panel to adjust the
levels of the G-Force. If you are using the G-Force in a mono setup, you should
select L-only in the I/O setup, Audio menu. This menu will also provide I/O gain
information.
The Killdry function should be On if you are using the G-Force in a parallel setup
i.e. in combination with a line mixer.
