GLOBAL MENU

ENGLISH

Momentary type pedals are similar to the hold

pedals typically used with keyboards (where

there is only a connection between tip and

ground when the pedal is pressed). Alternating

pedal types “stay connected” when pressed

and must be pressed again to be deactivated.

Use the default setting “Exp/Vol” when working

with an Expression pedal.

Pedal Calibrate

To use an expression pedal for controlling

G-Major 2 parameters, G-Major 2 must be

calibrated to that specific pedal. This is how

you calibrate G-Major 2:

1. Connect your pedal and select the

appropriate pedal type (see parameter Pedal

Type).

2. Select “Pedal Calibrate” and press ENTER.

3. Move the pedal to its maximum position (“toe

down”) and press ENTER.

4. Move the pedal to its minimum position (“toe

up”) and press ENTER.

Your pedal has been calibrated.

Depending on the pedal type you are

using, you may be asked to repeat steps

3 and 4.

Introduction

In the Global menu you will find a lot of

important parameters, such as Input Type,

Clock, Input/Output Range. These parameters

must be set correctly to ensure you get the

most out of G-Major 2!

All parameters in the I/O menu are “general”

parameters that are not stored as part of

G-Major 2 presets.

Basic operation

• Press the GLOBAL key.

• Select parameters using the UP/DOWN keys

and change parameter values using the

ADJUST wheel.

Kill Dry

Settings: On/Off

We always recommend using G-Major 2 in a

serial or loop setup as this will allow you to

benefit from all the unit’s effects and features.

If, however, you intend to use G-Major 2 in a

parallel setup or in a parallel loop, its Kill Dry

function will come in handy.

With Kill Dry activated, no direct signal is

passed to the outputs of G-Major 2.

A few comments regarding the Kill Dry function

and a parallel setup:

First of all:

• In such a setup, we recommend using the

Parallel routing.

• When the Kill Dry parameter is set to “On”, no

clean signal is passed to the outputs, and the

“Mix” parameter changes to “Wet” in all

algorithms.

You should also be aware that the way the

signal is routed in a parallel loop is similar to the

signal path within a mixer. The signal is split:

One part runs unprocessed to the output and

never passes the actual effects processor. The

other part of the signal is processed within

G-Major 2 and summed with the unprocessed

signal. Therefore, you will not get to enjoy the

benefits from all effects when running a parallel

setup. This goes especially for level-based

effects such as Tremolo and Panner, but the

Chorus/Flanger/ Phaser/Vibrato and Pitch

blocks will be affected as well.

Pedal type

Defines up the pedal type used on the Ext.

Control ¼" jack. Select between Momentary,

Alternating or Expression/Volume pedal types.
