When connecting to the power amplifier input on the rear
panel of a guitar amplifier, set the switch to "+4 dBm". The
G9.2tt incorporates a feature for matching its characteristics to
the amplifier (amp select function). For details, see page 58.
Use a monaural shielded
cable to connect the
guitar.
Use mono cables for connection
to guitar amplifiers. When using
only one guitar amplifier, use the
OUTPUT L/MONO jack.
Use a stereo Y adapter cable
to connect a rhythm machine
(ZOOM SB-246 or similar)
or a CD/MD player. The
signal supplied to the AUX
IN jack is not processed by
the internal effects, it is
supplied to the OUTPUT
L/MONO and OUTPUT R
jacks as is. The signal is also
sent to the USB port.
Patch switching and
pedal operation
information can be
sent and received as
MIDI messages.
By connecting the USB
port to a computer, the
G9.2tt can be used as an
audio interface.
