Introduction

After you have experimented with G-Major 2 for

a while and maybe programmed a few presets,

you are probably anxious to start controlling the

unit from your MIDI board and expression

pedals.

If you are new to the “world of 19 inch

wonders”, this section may startle you at first.

But once you get a grip of the basics, you will

see how easy it is to gain full control of G-Major

2 and appreciate these possibilities. As

described below, we have even implemented a

“Learn” function that makes setting up external

control of various parameters very easy.

The MOD Menu

First, let’s take a look at the parameters in the

MOD menu – then let’s see how they should be

set up.

Parameters in the MOD menu:

Mod 1 to 4

The four Modifiers are interfaces between

external controlling devices (such as an

expression pedal) and specific effect

parameters (e.g. Delay Time, Vibrato Speed

etc.). To learn more about setting up Modifiers

1 to 4, please refer to page 21.

Bypass All

Used to remote control the overall Bypass

function of G-Major 2.

Tuner Mute

Use this setting to mute the outputs of G-Major

2 while tuning your guitar.

Global In Level *

Use this setting to remote control the Global In

level.

Preset Out Level *

Use this setting to remote control the Preset

Out level. With this parameter you can boost a

preset to solo level.

PresetBoost

This is an excellent feature allowing you to

boost any preset for fills etc. You can boost the

preset from its current preset level (as set in the

Levels All menu) to 0 dB by using any MIDI CC

message or a pedal connected to the PEDAL

input of G-Major 2. A MIDI CC value above 64

will set the current preset to 0 dB. A MIDI CC

value below 64 will set the current preset back

to the preset level.

When another preset is recalled, the

PresetBoost controller is reset (i.e., a value

below 64 is sent out). This will allow for an

update of the LED status on your foot controller

(given that the MIDI Out jack of G-Major 2 is

connected to the MIDI In jack on your foot

controller). Please note that if the Preset Level

parameter in the Levels All menu is already set

to 0 dB, boosting the signal will not be possible.

For further instructions on how to set up the

PresetBoost function, please refer to the

example on page 24.

Global Out Level *

Out level.
