Chapter 4 Other Functions
Changing the function of the
foot pedals (SW MODE)
You can change the function of the GLIDE pedal and the
HOLD pedal by changing the switch mode. This setting also
changes the function of your GK pickup's DOWN/S1 screen
and UP/S2 switch.
Switch Mode 1
The GLIDE pedal operates the Glide function, and the HOLD
pedal operates the Hold function.
Your GK pickup's UP/S2 switch and DOWN/S1 switch will
move up/down through the patches.
* This mode is selected when the GR-20 is shipped from the
factory.
Switch Mode 2
The HOLD pedal and GLIDE pedal will move up/down
through the patches.
You can use your GK pickup's DOWN/S1 switch and UP/S1
switch in conjunction with the pedals to perform the
following operations.
• When you press the DOWN/S1 switch, the GLIDE pedal
will function as Octave Down and the HOLD pedal will
function as Octave Up (TRANSPOSE).
When you press DOWN/S1 (or UP/S2) once again, the
pedals will revert to the patch up/down function.
• When you press the UP/S2 switch, the GLIDE pedal will
function as Glide and the HOLD pedal will function as
Hold.
When you press UP/S2 (or DOWN/S1) once again, the
pedals will revert to the patch up/down function.
1.
Press the [SYSTEM EDIT] button enough times to get the
SW MODE indicator to light.
2.
Use the NUMBER/VALUE knob to change the setting.
* The actual mode of operation will not change until you store
the setting and return to Play mode.
3.
Press the [EXIT] button.
You will return to Play mode, and the setting will be
stored.
* The decimal point in the display will blink while the setting is
being stored. Don't turn off the power during this time.
* The setting will not be stored if you turn off the power without
returning to Play mode.
* In Switch Mode 1, the GLIDE indicator and HOLD indicator
will normally be lit; they will blink only while you press the
pedal.
* In Switch Mode 2, the GLIDE indicator and HOLD indicator
will normally be unlit; however, when the function of each
pedal is being changed by pressing the DOWN/S1 switch or
UP/S2 switch, the indicators will behave the same way as they
do in Switch Mode 1.
Saving Patches and System
Parameter Settings on an
External Device (BULK DUMP)
Here’s how you can save the user bank patches and the
system parameter settings via MIDI on an external device or
computer (sequencer).
You can also transfer data via a MIDI cable directly between
two GR-20 units.
Sending GR-20 data in this way is called “bulk dump,” and
receiving this data is called “bulk load.”
What are System Parameters?
Parameters that apply to the entire GR-20 (such as SW
MODE and MIDI CH) are called “system parameters.”
1.
Connect the GR-20’s MIDI OUT to your external device’s
MIDI IN.
