External control
using Modifiers
There are two steps required for assigning an
external controller to a specific parameter.
Step 1:
Assigning Modifiers to External Controls
This step is described on the previous page.
Step 2:
Assigning parameters to Modifiers
• Press MOD to enter the MOD menu. Then
select Mod 1, 2, 3 or 4. Then press ENTER.
• Now you can select the parameter you would
like to control using the UP/DOWN keys.
Note that in this list you will only find
parameters from the effect blocks that are
used in the current preset.
The parameter name is shown on the left-
hand side of the display, and the assigned
Modifier is shown on the right-hand side.
• Use the ADJUST wheel to assign the
parameters to one of the four modifiers.
Press ENTER and set the Response Curve
for the modifier.
Setting the Modifier Response Curve
The Modifier Response Curve determines how
the Modifier responds e.g. to the movement of
an expression pedal. There are three
parameters to be set.
MinOut
This parameter determines the Out level of the
Modifier when the expression pedal/Modifier
input is at the minimum position.
MidOut
This parameter determines the Out level of the
Modifier when the expression pedal/Modifier
input is at the medium position.
MaxOut
This parameter determines the Out level of the
Modifier when the expression pedal/Modifier
input is at the maximum position.
Example:
Assigning an expression pedal
as a Whammy
This example requires that you have assigned
an expression pedal to Modifier 1 using e.g. the
learning function as previously described.
Algorithm Parameter
Example
• Connect your expression pedal to either the
EXT. CONTROL jack on the back of G-Major
2 or to the jack for expression pedals on your
MIDI pedal board.
(Please see the GLOBAL section on how to
calibrate your expression pedal if you haven't
calibrated yet).
• Select the "Whammy" effect type for the Pitch
block.
• Press the MOD key to access the MOD
menu.
• Press ENTER.
• Select the Pitch parameter using the
UP/DOWN keys and select MOD 1 using the
ADJUST wheel.
G-Major 2 must be calibrated to the
connected expression pedal. This is
done in the Global menu. Please refer
to the section "Pedal Calibrate" on
page 15 of this manual.
Which parameters can be assigned?
The parameters you can assign to Modifiers are
located at the bottom of the MOD menu. The
parameter list will vary depending on the
algorithms used in the various effect blocks.
