GLOBAL MENU

Tuner Mode

The Tuner can operate with two different

accuracies.
Fine Tune

Fine Tune provides maximum accuracy. Use

this mode when fine-tuning your guitar.
Coarse

This is a slightly less accurate mode, allowing

for fast results in a live situation.
Tuner Range

Defines the range of the Tuner. Select between

“Guitar”, “Bass” and “7-string Guitar”. The

accuracy of the Tuner depends on the Tuner

Range. Therefore, it is important to set this

parameter according to the instrument you wish

to tune.
Tap Master

Preset:

The tempo will be set to the value

stored as part of each G-Major 2

preset.

Tap:

The tempo will follow the Global

tapped tempo.

Tap Unit

This parameter determines whether the tapped

tempo in the Tap Menu should be displayed in

milliseconds (“ms”) or in beats per minute

(“BPM”).
FX Mute

Settings: Hard/Soft

This parameter determines how delay and reverb

effects should be handled during preset changes.

Hard:

Effects are muted when a preset

change occurs.

Soft:

Delays will “spill over”, and reverb

parameters glide smoothly to the

settings in the new preset.

MOD Master

Settings: Preset / Mod

If you are not acquainted with Modifiers, you

can read about them in the “Modifiers” section

of this manual. In short: Parameter values can

be controlled using an external controller, such

as a MIDI expression pedal. If you have set up

this external controller to control e.g. the Preset

Out level, you must decide how you would like

G-Major 2 to respond to the position of the

expression pedal when you are recalling

another preset. This is the purpose of the MOD

Master parameter. Setting this option correctly

depends very much on what parameter your

Modifier is controlling.
Preset

If MOD Master is set to “Preset”, G-Major will

ignore the position of the connected external

controller and load the Modifier value stored as

part of the preset.
Mod

If MOD Master is set to “Mod”, G-Major will

always check the position of the connected

external controller when a preset change

occurs. G-Major will then respond to this

position and ignore the Modifier value for the

relevant parameter.

Please note that when you are using the

“Mod” option with an expression pedal

that is controlling a level parameter, the

parameter will jump to the value

equivalent to the pedal position next time

you move the pedal. This could result in

considerable level jumps.

Tuner Ref.

Range: 420 to 460 Hz

Defines the master tune frequency of the built-

in tuner. The standard setting is 440 Hz.
