When using effects
The OUTPUT MONO jack supplies only the left-channel
signal. This is suitable for example for connection to a
guitar amp or another effect device.
■
When using Bypass
When the GFX-4 is in bypass mode, the analog input
signal appears unchanged at this jack, due to the action of
a switching relay. (This means that there is absolutely no
sound quality change caused by digital processing.)
Note that the expression/volume pedal and the MASTER
LEVEL knob have no effect on the signal in this
condition.
When wishing to use the volume pedal and
master level control also in bypass mode, use the
OUTPUT STEREO jack.

Getting
Connected
To use the output of the GFX-4 in mono,
connect the OUTPUT MONO jack. To use the
output of the GFX-4 in stereo, connect a Y
cable to the OUTPUT STEREO jack.
* When connecting the GFX-4 to a hi-fi system
or a multi- track recorder (MTR), activating
the built-in amp simulator (
➝
p. 7) is
recommended).
The ACTIVE NORMAL switch should be
set to "NORMAL" when using a
conventional passive guitar and to
"ACTIVE" when using an active type guitar
with high-output pickup or built-in
preamplifier.
Wind the AC adapter cable
around the hook as shown in
the illustration to guard against
inadvertent disconnection.

About the Mono Output
The GFX-4 has two output jacks labeled OUTPUT STEREO and OUTPUT MONO. When the OUTPUT MONO jack is
used, a mechanical relay switch operates in bypass mode, which results in true bypass (analog bypass where the signal is
not subject to any kind of digital processing).
