Roland GK-2 - Functions of Switches; Specifications

2. Functions of Switches
[Synth Volume]
This always controls the volume of the synthe-
sizer's sound regardless of the GR-50's condition
(no matter which mode the GR-50 is set to).
* Adjust the volume of the normal guitar sound
with the volume control on the guitar.
[Selector Switch]
This switches the signals output from the GK-2.
When it is set to “Guitar”, the GK-2 outputs only
the signals for guitar’s normal sound, and with it
set to “Mix”, it outputs the signals for the mixed
sounds of the normal guitar and synthesizer. At
“Synth” position, only the signals for synthesizer
sound is output.
[S1 and S2 Switches]
Various different funcitons can be assigned to the
S1 and S2 switches which then control the GR-50
differently. The functions which can be assigned
to these switches are as follows.
* Sostenuto S shown above is quite different
from MIDI Sostenuto messages.
The above control funcitons’ assignment is done
in the System Setup mode on the GR-50. For
details, see “Control Assign” in the GR-50's
owner's manual.
* When the GR-50 is set to an Editing mode, the
S1 and S2 switches function just like the VALUE
button (that changes values of parameters) on
the GR-50.
