Comparing Preamp Tones in

You can use the “Amp Switch Mode” setting to compare
preamp tones before and after they are edited.
Press the pedal to which the preamp is assigned, switching it
on to get to the preamp tone set in the patch, and switching it
off to hear the preamp tone as it is with the current knob
settings.

Switches the preamp on and off.
Toggle to Knobs:
When the indicator for the pedal to which the preamp is
assigned remains lit, the tone uses the settings in effect
prior to switching to Manual mode; when the indicator
flashes, the tone settings conform to the current knob
positions.
* This has no effect when the preamp is set to OFF.
3. Press [EXIT] to return to the Play screen.
Tuning the Guitar
When the Tuner/Bypass is turned on, sounds input to the
GT-6 are output directly as is (bypassed), and the tuner is
activated.
Under these conditions you can then tune your guitar.

in the lower row, indicating the difference between the input
sound and the sound in the display.

When the difference from the correct pitch falls within 50
cents, the Tuning Guide then indicates the size of that
difference. As you watch the Tuning Guide, tune the guitar
so that the “
