• Disk drive
Data can be stored on 3.5" HD floppy disks, in PS/
GPS expanded format (1.6 megabyte), standard
MS-DOS (1.44 megabyte) or Atari ST/Falcon for-
mat (720 Kb). PS/GPS is able to initialize disks for
every format. It is possible to load RAM-Sounds,
Styles and Songs from PS/GPS, WX2, SX2 floppy
disks and disk-based samples. MS-DOS compati-
bility permits MIDI file exchange with other instru-
ments and computers.
• Hard disk
The PG/GPS instruments are all fitted with a 2.5”
IDE internal Hard Disk. At the time of leaving the
factory, a large amount of useful data is loaded into
the Hard Disk (Songs and Styles). Refer to the Hard
Disk contents list supplied with the owner’s manu-
al.
• Score view
The display can show the score, the lyrics and chord
symbols of a song. Thanks to the Audio/Video card,
it is also possible to connect PS/GPS to a video
system (monitor, domestic TV, closed circuit video)
by means of the supplied video cable, to display
score and lyrics on a television (or other external
video device). Lyrics can be projected onto a mon-
itor during a performance to allow others to sing with
the player.
• Audio/Video card with Vocal Processor
The Audio/Video card offers the possibility of direct-
ing incoming Mic/Line signals to the the instrument’s
internal multi-effects processor of the PS/GPS and
redirect them to the main mix. It is also possible to
control the Vocal Processor which features vocal
harmonizing capabilities.
• Advanced MIDI operation & System Exclu-
sive
PS/GPS has two independent MIDI circuits (A and
B), offering up to 32 MIDI channels, with MIDI-merge
and MIDI-thru functions and System Exclusive com-
muncation.
• Direct connection with a computer
The Computer jack permits the connection of com-
puters not fitted with a MIDI interface to PS/GPS
via a single serial cable.
• SCSI port (optional)
For off-line storage, PS/GPS is predisposed for the
installation of a SCSI port, so you can store files on
an external SCSI storage devices (Hard Disks, etc.).
This also makes it possible to load files from a CD-
ROM drive. A SCSI port can be installed in all mod-
els by means of Generalmusic’s optional SCSI in-
stallation kit, available from all authorised General-
music outlets. Installation should only be carried
out by authorised Generalmusic service centres.
• Multitasking operating mode
The Multitasking operating system allows you to ex-
ecute several operations simultaneously, such as
modifying sounds while a song is playing, loading a
song during song play, formatting a disk while play-
ing. Multitasking is a common computer feature,
and PS/GPS is the one of the only instruments which
makes extensive use of it.
• Up-dateable operating system (OS) from
floppy disk
Since the operating system resides in a flash-ROM,
it is possible to load updates from floppy disk. Op-
erating system updates can add new functions to
the instrument (advanced sound edit, samples trans-
fer, etc.).
• Disk drive
