Yamaha GEP50 - Manual (Page 9)

/BYPASSING THE EFFECT / / USING THE INSERT LOOP /
There are two ways to switch the selected effect in and
out: © with the control panel BYPASS switch and ® with a
footswitch connected to the connector-panel BYPASS
footswitch jack. An optional YAMAHA FC5 Footswitch can be
used for foot-bypass control. In either case — when the control-
panel BYPASS button or BYPASS footswitch is pressed — a
bold, flashing letter "B” will appear in the upper right-hand cor­
ner of the LCD. While the "B” is visible the GEP50 effect is
bypassed and the input signal is directly routed to the output
terminals (i.e. the effect is OFF). Press the BYPASS button or
footswitch a second time to turn the effect back ON.
An external signal processor — a foot-pedal type guitar effect
unit, for example — can be connected to the GEP50 INSERT
IN and OUT jacks, and switched into the GEP50 signal path by
pressing the INSERT button.
The INSERT OUT jack should be connected to the input of the
external signal processor, and the signal processor’s output
should be connected back to the INSERT IN jack.
When the INSERT button is pressed and its LED lights, the
external signal processor is switched into the GEP50 signal
path, allowing both the GEP50 and the external signal proces­
sor to function simultaneously. Pressing the INSERT button a
second time (causing its LED to go out) deactivates the external
effect.
The ON/OFF status of the INSERT loop can be stored in any of
the RAM memory locations (50 — 00) simpiy by pressing the
STORE button when the desired RAM memory location is se­
lected. When this is done, the INSERT loop will be turned ON
or OFF automatically whenever that memory location is se­
lected.
NOTE: If you attempt to STORE the INSERT status in a ROM
memory location, the " READ ONLY >k5k MEM NO.
1-50 ” error message will appear on the display. Press
any panel key to clear the error message.
