Advanced Configuration

The Geckoplex allows certain settings and functionality to be configured
through startup menus.  These settings include:

The max delay time

The off-state output mode (buffered or bypassed)

MIDI channel and MIDI clock settings

The expression pedal function in SOS mode

Overview:

Enter the startup menus by holding down certain switches during power-on.  

ON

 to change the max delay time and output buffer mode.

PRESET

 to change MIDI channel and clock output mode.

TAP

 to change the SOS expression pedal function.

ON + TAP + PRESET

 to restore the unit to default settings.

Then, adjust the desired settings using 

PRESET

 and 

TAP

 switches.

Finally, press the 

ON

 switch to save the settings and reset.

Max Delay Time and Off-state Output Mode

First

Then

Hold

At Startup

The 

PRESET

 switch selects the maximum delay time as follows:

• 

LED 1 on

 – 650 ms max (same as EP tape machines)

• 

LED 2 on

 – 1 second max (default)

• 

LED 3 on

 – 2 seconds max

The 

TAP

 switch toggles the off-state output mode as follows:

• 

LED on

 – Buffered Mode (default).  The preamp and

GAIN

 knob are

always active and outputs are always buffered, even with the unit
switched off.  Required for

TRAILS

 to function.

• 

LED off

 – Bypass Mode.  The unit is fully bypassed from the signal path

while the unit is switched off.  The

GAIN

 knob has no effect, and no

TRAILS

 will be heard after switching the unit off.

The 

ON

 switch stores the new settings and resets the unit.

Restore All to Factory Default Settings

defaults are restored.
