Yamaha GEP50 - Manual (Page 2)

Congratulations on your acquisition of a YAMAHA GEP50 Guitar Effect Processor! The
GEP50 is a remarkably versatile digital effect processor that has been designed specifi­
cally to give guitarists a range of top-quality digital effects to add to their expressive
capabilities. It offers a selection of 50 pre-programmed effects including distortion, digital
reverberation, gated reverb, echo, flanging, phasing, pitch change, a versatile compressor
and precision parametric EQ. The distortion effects actually combine distortion with other
effects (revetb, flange, etc.) for extraordinary sound processing versatility. In addition to
the 50 pre-programmed memory locations, there are 50 "user memory locations" which
can be used to store your own edited versions of the preset effect programs, so you can
recall your own effect creations anytime they are necessary. There's even an INSERT loop
that allows you to switch a second signal processor unit into and out of the GEP50 signal
path by simply pressing a button. The GEP50 is also MIDI compatible so you can select
effects via remote MIDI control.
In order to fully take advantage of all the capability offered by the GEP50, we urge you to
read this operation manual thoroughly.
