Roland GP-8 - 3. USING A FOOT CONTROLLER; Foot Controller Operations

OPERATION
3. USING A FOOT CONTROLLER
Using the optional foot controller ЕС- 100,
you can change Patches without reaching
out your hands. This is the function
effectively used during live performance.
(See page.9.)
a. Using a Control Pedal
While the control pedal is being pressed,
the Control Indicator is lit, and there is
no signal sent from the Output Jack A
or B or the Line Out Jack A or B. When
the guitar is not being played, pressing
the pedal can deaden the noise picked
up by the guitar's pickups. Also, when
tuning through the Tuner Out, quick tuning
can be perfromed by pressing the pedal
instead of using an amplifier. Pushing the
pedal once again or selecting a Patch with
the Number Pedals will leave this mode.
b. Using an Expression Pedal
Using the Expression Pedal EV —5, variation
of the effect sounds will be widened.
The parameter selected in “EV-5
PARAMETER" on page 12 can be changed
with the ЕУ-5, You can select any of
the parameters included in the turned—on
effects and the Master Volume.
ж When “Pre-delay” of Chorus is selected, noise
may be generated by changing the volume.
When the ЕУ-5 is fully pressed down,
the value of the parameter is its maximum.
When the pedal is returned to its original
position (lifted), the value is equal to the
Minimum Volume of the ЕУ-5.

on the FC— 100, guitar signal for tuning
is constantly sent, so that you will be
able to tune your guitar at any time.
* The Signal Output Jack is strictly for
connecting a tuner; do not connect any
other device such as an amplifier.

a tuner is shown in "CONNECTION"on page
