The table below shows the quantity of the loops “at the front” and on the FX
LOOP depending on the quantity of used 6LE modules connected to the
GSC-5.

Signal path
The buffer (z-buffer) with input impedance of 1 Mohm (same as in the guitar
tube amps) enables to boost the signal power (without the voltage increase).
Adding the buffer between the guitar and the effect can improve guitar sound
(due to low input impedance many of the effects change the guitar tone) and
enable to avoid high tones losses when using long cables between the
controller and the amp (caused by cables’ parasitic capacitance appearing
when all the effects are switched off). Signal from INput, retrieved by very
high impedance tuner buffer (10 Mohm), is transfered to the TUNER output.
It enables to use the tuner also while playing.
The SEND outputs of the effects loops should be connected with effects
INputs and the RETURN inputs of the effects loops should be connected with
OUTputs of individual effects. The MUTE block silents the signal during the
silent tunning and mutes the switching clicks. The 6LE features three levels
(LOW, MID and HIGH) of clicks muting wihich can be set in the SETUP >
↓
>
CLICK PROTECTION function for each A, B, C section separately. For the
modules placed “on the front” it is recommended to set the MID or HIGH level
and for the modules connected to the effects loop it is recommended to set
the LOW or MID level.
