Dear Customer,
Congratulations for choosing our Guitar System Controller!
Thanks to functionality not offered by other similar products and high quality of manufacturing and
sound parameters it will enable you quick and without distortions switching effects, pre-amps and amps as
well as MIDI devices.
So simple switching previously programmed settings of all these devices and parameters creates
new opportunity for you to fully take advantage of the equipment collected by you.
Guitar System Controller (GSC) is the programmable switching device of effects’ loops (looper),
the amp’s switcher by footswitch input and the MIDI devices’ controller in one. By pressing just a single
footswitch it enables:
-
to activate selected effects (connected to LOOP1 up to LOOP4) and to select the full or lowered
defined by analog knob volume,
-
to set the amp channel (or the pre-amp one),
-
to set by Program Change command the MIDI device’s program No. of work (e.g. an effects’
processor).
There are five presets (numbered from 1 to 5) in the each of 6 banks (numbered from A to F). The
GSC is equipped with the function of programming presets and the copy function of already existing
presets. The copy function enables quick “organising” presets in banks to avoid switching between banks
during the particular song is played.
To avoid the incidental changing of the presets’ settings the GSC is equipped with the memory access lock.
The GSC is equipped with the “Settings” function which allows to select the mode of working (e.g.
controlling of external devices) and this function enables to set the parameters connected with MIDI
transmission.
Basic characteristics:
-
high impedance input (identical with a tube amp characteristics) based on FET transistor,
-
independent guitar’s TUNER output with the silent tuning function,
-
four loops for connecting single effect pedals (stomp boxes) or serially connected stomp boxes
with skipping (relay bypassing) switched off effects,
-
four outputs 9V DC supplying effect pedals (totally max. 160 mA with overloading indication),
-
volume change module (full or lowered defined by the analog knob) to apply in the
solo/background playing mode,
-
2 outputs (2 lines each, latching type) for amp's switching by footswitch input,
-
MIDI output setting the program No. of e.g. an effects’ processor (giving possibility to control
independently two MIDI units by one of their THRU outputs),
-
5 footswitches to select presets,
-
1 footswitch with a definable function (choice: loops direct switching mode, switching to the
previous bank, changing the volume or MUTE),
-
very silent footswitches (backlighted),
-
LINK connector for connecting the second GSC device to form a set with double possibilities
(working in two modes: “remote” or “nearby”),
-
a possibility to connect a wah-wah effect pad (wah-pad) to control the system by placing foot on it,
-
the main signal output giving possibility to connect parallely several amps using a long cable
(10 meters) without signal quality loss,
-
external power supply with a long ( 3.5 meters) and flexible cable which eliminates a power
supply presence on the floor and provides increased safety level.
