Chapter 6 Using the Customize Function
With the GT-6’s Customize function, you can rely on your
own sensibilities and create a totally new effect by tweaking
the settings for the “Preamp/Speaker Simulator,”
“Overdrive/Distortion,” and “Pedal Wah.” The result can
then be saved on the GT-6 as “Custom” settings.
You can also use these custom settings in other patches.
Making “Custom” Preamp
Settings
You can make three different sets of settings, Custom1,
Custom2, and Custom3.
* The sound of any patch that uses Custom 1, 2, or 3 will be
altered if the custom settings are edited.
1. Turn the PREAMP/SPEAKER TYPE knob to
“CUSTOM.”
2. Press PREAMP/SPEAKER [TYPE VARIATION] to call
up “Custom1,” “Custom2,” or “Custom3.”
