ONTROL
a) TUNER/AUX
This function allows you to set up ANY preset as your tuner. Simply connect your tuner to the
TUNER/AUX output on the back panel of G2 then go to the preset you want to set up as your
tuner and press the TUNER/AUX button. Now whenever you go to that preset, your signal will
be sent straight to the TUNER/AUX output

b) PRE GAIN

The PRE GAIN function on G2 gives you the ability to send a controlled level to the input of the
first effect selected in the chain, OR you can set it up with no effects loops selected and simply
have a buffered clean signal to your amp. Simply press the PRE GAIN button, then the blue LED
will come on indicating that the PRE GAIN circuit is now selected for this pre-set. Now use the
UP and DOWN buttons to select your level. If you press and hold the UP and DOWN buttons the
volume will change quickly. To fine tune simply press the UP or DOWN buttons momentarily and
it will increase incrementally per press. There are 200 increments to the volume level so you can
set it to be exactly the volume you need. Remember, the PRE GAIN needs to be turned on for
the PRE GAIN circuit to work. You can easily tell exactly where your volume is set by toggling the
PRE GAIN button on and off to compare the level with your direct sound.
With the PRE GAIN off, the circuit is completely removed from your signal path.

c) POST GAIN

Like the PRE GAIN, the POST GAIN gives you the ability to select a volume level but this time it is
AFTER your effects. In fact, the POST GAIN circuit is positioned between loops 8&9 as standard
BUT you can actually position the post gain amplifier AFTER any effects loop you like. To
reposition the Post Gain Amplifier simply power up holding down footswitch 5, then press and
hold the effects loop button you want to place the amp AFTER.
Also the VOLUME PEDAL INSERT LOOP is part of the POST GAIN circuit. This insert is a great
place for your volume pedal, or to use with the effects send and return from your amplifier. It
means you can connect your effects to your amp's FX loop WITHOUT having to give up one of
your G2 effects loops.
