* To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before making any connections. * If there are batteries in the unit while an AC adaptor is being used, normal operation will continue should the line voltage be interrupted (power blackout or power cord disconnection). Turning On the Power Be sure to observe the following order when connecting devices and switching on the power to your equipment. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices. Connect the GK-2A . (Connect the AC Adaptor) . Connect the Amp . Turn On Amp Power * When the unit is running on battery power, the power comes on when you insert the connector plug into the OUTPUT jack. * Always make sure to have the volume level turned down before switching on power. Even with the volume all the way down, you may still hear some sound when the power is switched on, but this is normal, and does not indicate a malfunction. * When operating on battery power only, the unit’s indicator will become dim when battery power gets too low. Replace the battery as soon as possible. 5 Operating Instructions Using the Pedals fig.04 “MASTER: ON” and “EFFECTS: OFF” are selected when the power is turned on. Master is toggled on and off by stepping on the MASTER On/Off pedal. When switched on, the tone selected with the TYPE knob is output. When off, the output from the divided pickup is muted, and the sounds from the normal pickup (or the sounds input to GUITAR RETURN) are output without change. The effect (DELAY, CHORUS) can be toggled on and off by stepping on the Effects On/Off pedal. DELAY and CHORUS are not applied to the Normal Pickup output. Illuminated Extinguished . When at “ON” When at “OFF” Illuminated Extinguished . . . When at “ON” When at “OFF” 6 Operating Instructions Panel Operations In order to follow along with the instructions given here, you should start out by having Master switched ON (press the MASTER On/Off pedal and confirm that the MASTER ON/ OFF indicator has lighted). Also, press the Effects On/Off pedal to switch OFF effects (EFFECTS ON/OFF indicator extinguished). fig.05 1. Select a tone. You can select six different wave types with the TYPE knob. 2. Adjust the tone with the COLOR knob. This knob adjusts the tone. The way in which it works will vary depending on the effect type selected. 5. Turn the MODE knob to select one of eleven effect modes. This switches the DELAY and CHORUS settings. Press the Effects On/Off pedal to switch the effects on (EFFECTS ON/OFF indicator is lit). Adjust this while switching the MASTER On/Off pedal so that the volume is roughly the same whether Master is on or off. Turn the LEVEL knob to adjust the volume. 4. 3. Turn the EFFECT LEVEL knob to adjust the volume of the effect. If raising the effect level increases the overall volume too much, try reducing the volume with the LEVEL knob. 6. 7 Part Names and Functions Front Panel WAVE fig.06 LEVEL Knob Adjusts the volume. COLOR Knob These adjust the tone. Each TYPE works differently. The following describes the basic function of each type. TYPE Function SAW LEAD: Clockwise rotation produces a brighter sound. SQUARE: Clockwise rotation produces a brighter sound. RING MOD: Clockwise rotation increases the modulation frequency. SLOW GEAR: Clockwise rotation slows the attack. SITAR: Clockwise rotation increases the resonance effect. ACOUSTIC: Clockwise rotation changes the sound from a highly resonant sound to a bright and lively sound. TYPE Knob Select the tone. SAW LEAD: Analog synth-type sound that is perfect for lead guitar. SQUARE: Analog synth-type sound perfect for backing. RING MOD: Metallic, bell-like sound. SLOW GEAR: Sound that is effective for volumecontrol performance techniques. SITAR: Sitar sound. ACOUSTIC: Acoustic guitar sound. 8 Part Names and Functions EFFECTS fig.07 EFFECT LEVEL Knob Sets the chorus volume level in CHORUS mode. In other modes, this sets the volume of the delay effect (the chorus volume in DELAY+CHORUS mode is not changed). MODE Knob Used to make settings for the Effect mode. DELAY 1: Sets the doubling (similar to twin guitars). DELAY 2–5: Progressively longer delay times. DELAY+CHORUS 1–5: Adds chorus to the DELAY 1–5 settings. CHORUS: Selects chorus only. 9 Part Names and Functions fig.08 Master On/Off Pedal Each press of the pedal switches Master on or off.
