MIDI
MIDI CH.
Via an external MIDI device it is possible to
recall presets and control parameters in the G-
Sharp. For the external device to communicate
with the G-Sharp it is essential that they
communicate on the same MIDI Channel.
The G-Sharp can be set to receive on any of
the 16 MIDI channels, none or all.
• Press and hold PRESET ON/OFF. The
current selected MIDI channel is displayed.
Assuming the G-Sharp is “right out of the box”
or that you have performed a Reset procedure
as described on page 27, the display now
shows:
- indicating that channel 1 is selected and the
G-Sharp can receive MIDI information on
channel 1.
• Use the UP/DOWN arrows to select MIDI
channels 1 to 16.
• “O” indicates Omni mode, which means that
the G-Sharp can receive MIDI information on
all channels.
• “OF” indicates that the G-Sharp will ignore
any incoming MIDI messages.
• Press LOAD to verify and exit menu.
SysEx ID
The G-Sharp SysEx ID is always identical with
the set MIDI Channel.
External MIDI editor mode
Via MIDI, all parameters can be controlled via
an external software Editor. For the G-Sharp to
respond to the editor commands the G-Sharp
must be in “Editor mode”.
When the G-Sharp is controlled via the
external software editor, the front-panel
controls are locked and cannot be used
to alter parameter
values.
Factory Presets
The G-Sharp holds no conventional factory
presets. When all the controllers are in 12
o'clock position the G-Sharp is in "neutral",
meaning that all parameters are set as
suggested by TC Electronic. However, by
combining the 16 positions of both the Effects
and Reverb selectors you actually have 256
“factory” presets.
Application Software version
This number indicates the currently loaded
application software and is relevant for
servicing purposes only.
• Press and hold PRESET ON/OFF and use
the UP/DOWN arrows to select “AP” as
displayed below.
The display will flash between “AP” (for
application) and the current loaded application
software.
Front Software version
This number indicates the current loaded front
software and is relevant only for servicing
purposes.
• Press and hold PRESET ON/OFF and use
the UP/DOWN arrows to select “Fr” as
displayed below.
The display will flash between “Fr” (for
front-software) and the current loaded front
software number.
