are controlled from the guitar. Two humbucking pickups for good normal guitar sound. Can be used as a normal guitar without the Guitar Synthesizer. • Newly designed divided humbucking pickup for improved noise rejection. • Arched body shape, like a violin. • Vibrato ON/OFF touch plates for simple guitar-like control of synthesizer vibrato effects. Other types of the GR-Series (e.g. GR-100) can be used with this Guitar Controller. In that case, refer to the respective owner's manuals. • When storing the Guitar Controller In its case, leave the strings tightened as when playing. • To maintain good sound quality, do not allow the strings to become too old before replacing. • Extreme temperatures and humidity will damage the Guitar Controller. Keep salt from snacks such as peanuts or popcorn away from all connectors and Jacks. • The G-303 and G-808 Guitar Controllers cannot be used with the GR-500. Using the Guitar Controller as an electric guitar. Using the GR 300 GUITAR SYNTHESIZER The NORMAL OUTPUT jack may be used simultaneously with the GR-300 Guitar synthesizer. To AMP Ï EFFECTOR To G R 300 BALANCE control will have no effect on the NORMAL OUTPUT sound. USING THE GUITAR CONTROLLER AS AN ELECTRIC GUITAR The Guitar Controller can be used as an ordinary dual humbucking pickup electric guitar without connecting it to the GR-300 Guitar Synthesizer. For this purpose, use the NORMAL OUTPUT jack. Use the PICKUP SELECTOR switch to select the desired pickup. Use the MASTER VOLUME and TONE controls to control the guitar volume and tone. The NORMAL OUTPUT jack may also be used when using the G-300 Guitar Synthesizer. The MASTER VOLUME and TONE controls will work as above, but the BALANCE control will have no effect on the NORMAL OUTPUT sound. GUITAR PICKUP SELECTOR HUMBUCKING PICKUP BRIDGE TAILPIECE MASTER VOLUME GUITAR TONE USING THE GR-300 GUITAR SYNTHESIZER The Guitar Controller is connected to the Guitar Synthesizer with the 24-conductor cable. To connect, lift the locking lever, insert the connector plug firmly, then push the locking lever down. Save the rubber cover to protect the connector socket when it Is not In use. After connecting the Guitar Controller to the Guitar Synthesizer, and after connecting the Guitar Synthesizer output to an amplifier, ti)rn on the power switch. • VCFCONTROLS The VCF CUTOFF FREQ and RESONANCE controls are the two synthesizer VCF (voltage controlled filter) controls. The CUTOFF FREQ control controls the cutoff point of the VCF, the cutoff point determining the tone color of the synthesizer sound. High produces a hard sound; low produces a soft sound. The RESONANCE control is used to accent the frequencies at the cutoff point of the VCF to add strong coloration to the tone color of the sound. • VOICE SELECT The VOICE SELECTOR switch determines the sound source used for synthesizing sounds. With the switch up, the source of voicing is the six synthesizer VCO's and the fundamental pitch extracted from the guitar string sounds. With the switch down, the voicing comes from the six distortion circuits. At center, the source is a combination of the two above positions. The GR-300 Instruction Manual containes details for operating the controls. Given here are the Guitar Controller controls and their basic functions. • MASTER VOLUME and GUITAR TONE The MASTER VOLUME control controls the overall sound level from the guitar and synthesizer. The TONE control controls the tone of the guitar sound. • GUITAR-SYNTHESIZER BALANCE The BALANCE control is used to set the balance between the guitar sound and the synthesizer sound. Turn counterclockwise to increase the guitar sound and clockwise to Increase the synthesizer sound. Somewhere in between, both sounds will be equal in volume. The exact balance point will change and depends on the VCF CUTOFF FREQ control setting. • VIBRATO ON/OFF A vibrato effect can be added to the synthesizer VCO's (voltage controlled oscillators). The ON/ OFF function of the vibrato Is controlled by the touch plates located on each side of the humbucking pickup nearest the bridge. One touch of the upper touch plate will turn the continuous vibrato effect ON. The lower touch plate Is used for one-touch vibrato: vibrato will be produced only as long as the plate is touched. It is also used for stopping the continuous vibrato effect started with the upper touch plate. Since touching the lower plate produces vibrato, the continuous vibrato will end when the lower plate is released. • VIBRATO DEPTH The vibrato ON/OFF function is controlled as above, and the depth of the effect is controlled by the VIBRATO DEPTH control. NOTE: The operation of the touch plates depends on using the body of the player to form a bridge between the plate and electrical ground. When stopping strings with the left hand, there is no problem because the left hand fingers are touching the strings which are metal and at ground potential. With vibrato e...
