CONTROLLING THE G•MAJOR
Introduction
If you have played around and listened to the
G•Major and maybe programmed a few presets
you are probably anxious to get control of the
unit from your MIDI board, Expression pedals
or maybe via the optional G•Minor MIDI foot
switch.
If you are new to the 19 inch “world of wonders”
this section will maybe startle you at first, but
once you get a grip of the basics you will see
how easy it is to gain full control of the G•Major
and appreciate these possibilities. As described
below we have even implemented a “Learn”
function that makes setting up external control
of various parameters very easy.
The Mod Menu
This section describes how the parameters in
the MOD menu are assigned to an External
Control Device.
Modifiers can be perceived as interfaces
between external controlling devices (such as
e.g. an Expression pedal) and specific
algorithm parameters. The section “Modifiers”
will describe in detail how to work with these.
• Press MOD and select parameters using the
CONTROL
PARAMETER wheel.
• For each of the parameters you can now
setup how this parameter should be
controlled. Use the CONTROL EDIT wheel to
select between following options:
• Off
• Learn
• Pedal
• CC 1-128
Off
Off means: No external control of the Modifier.
Learn
The obvious comfortable choice that makes
setting up a breeze.
• Press ENTER and the display will blink
showing that you are in the Learn mode.
• Now you must show G•Major which of the
connected external controllers you will use to
control the modifier. Either send a CC (by
pressing one of your MIDI pedals CC
buttons) or move your Expression pedal or
switch.
• “Learning” will now no longer blink and the
G•Major has recognized your external
controller.
Pedal
When “Pedal” is selected it is only the pedal
connected to the “External Control” jack on the
rear panel that can control the Modifier.
CC 0-127
This is where you can directly specify exactly
which CC number the Modifier should respond
to.
Natural choice for switching blocks
on/off or Tuner Mute would be using
MIDI CCs (Control Change values)
sent from your MIDI pedal. Natural
choice for controlling any Level, Speed
or Pitch parameter would be using an
Expression Pedal.
Parameters in the MOD menu:
Mod 1 to 4
Modifiers can be perceived as interfaces
between external controlling devices (such as
e.g. an Expression pedal) and specific
algorithm parameters. The section “Modifiers”
will describe in detail how to work with these.
Tap Tempo
Remote control of Tap Tempo. This is the
tempo that you can assign tempo parameters to
e.g. Delay Time or Tremolo Speed.
Bypass All
Remote control of the Overall Bypass All.
Tuner Mute
Allows you to Mute the Outputs of the G•Major,
while tuning your guitar.
Global In Level *
Remote control of the Global In level.
Preset Out Level *
Remote control of the Preset Out level. With
this parameter you can boost a preset to solo
level.
PresetBoost
This is an excellent feature allowing you to
boost any preset for fills etc. You can boost the
preset from its current preset level (setup in the
"Levels All" menu) to 0dB by using any MIDI
