fig.3-02(Other Parameters)
Adjusting the Brightness of the
Sound—FREQ
This controls the cutoff frequency of the filter within the
sound generator.
Increasing this setting will raise the frequency, producing a
brighter tone. Conversely, decreasing this setting will lower
the frequency, producing a softer tone.
Adding a Distinctive Character to
the Tone—RESO
This controls the resonance of the filter within the sound
generator. Increasing this setting will produce a more
distinctive tone, while decreasing the setting will produce a
milder tone.
Adjusting the Pitch —TRANSPOSE
The pitch of the synth sound produced by the GR-20 can be
raised or lowered in one-octave steps relative to the pitch
you play on your guitar.
(-2, -1, 0, +1, +2)
Adjusting the Playing Feel
—PLAY FEEL
You can select the way in which the synth sound will
respond to your picking dynamics. You can more naturally
express your playing dynamics by changing this setting to
suit a particular playing style or sound.
1–4:
The “1” setting gives you the widest range of
volume change in response to your picking
dynamics. With higher-numbered settings,
even softly picked notes will sound at a high
volume, making the volume more consistent
even when you use tapping techniques or if
your picking is not consistent.
No dynamics:
With this setting, notes will be sounded at a
fixed volume regardless of your picking
dynamics.
Strum:
This setting suppresses softly picked notes.
Use this setting if unwanted notes are
triggered when you strum or when your finger
contacts a string unintentionally.
3. Press the [EXIT] button to return to Play mode.
