Parameter Value Explanation NS ON/OFF OFF, ON Switches the noise suppressor effect on/off . Adjust this parameter as appropriate for the volume of the noise . If the noise level is high, a higher setting is appropriate . If the noise level is low, a lower setting is appropriate . Adjust this value until the decay of the THRESH 0–100 guitar sound is as natural as possible . * High settings for the threshold parameter may result in there being no sound when you play with your guitar volume turned down .

SEND RETURN

The input to SEND/RETURN within the effect chain will be output to the SEND jack . The input from the RETURN jack will be ignored . For example, by placing SEND/RETURN in the GT-100’s effect chain in front of reverb or BRANCH OUT delay, this allows you to use the SEND jack as a dry out .

Adjusts the BPM value for each patch . * BPM (beats per minute) indicates the number of quarter note beats that occur each minute . * When you have an external MIDI device MASTER BPM 40–250 connected, the MASTER BPM synchronizes to the external MIDI device’s tempo, making it impossible to set the MASTER BPM . To enable setting of the MASTER BPM, set”SYNC CLOCK” (p . 29) to INTERNAL . This sets the key for the FX HARMONIST .

Virtual expression pedal system (Internal About the Range of a Target’s Change Pedal / Wave Pedal) The value of the parameter selected as the target changes within the range defined by “Min” and “Max,” as set on the GT-100 .
