Effect placement

By moving the icons that represent the effects, send/return and so on, you can freely change the order in which the effects are placed, or arrange them in parallel.

You can arrange up to 15 effects and functional devices such as DIVIDER/MIXER, LOOPER, SEND/RETURN and so on within the effect chain.

MEMO

Due to DSP capacity limits, you may not be able to insert or overwrite an effect, even when the number of connected effects falls within the limits. If there isn’t enough DSP capacity, the icon for the effect you’re trying to newly place in the chain is greyed out, and you cannot place the effect. To place a new effect, you must delete an existing effect.

 

Adding effects to the chain (insert)

  1. Touch <EFFECTS PALETTE>.
  3. The icons representing all of the effects you can use on the GX-10 are shown in the top row (palette) of the screen.
  4. The bass effects are shown after the guitar effects.
  6. Drag the icon of the effects from the palette to the desired position in the middle of the screen (the effect chain).
  7. This example shows how to place the BOOST effect between X-CMP and OD.
  9. When the “+” icon appears, release the finger you’re using to drag the icon.
  11. This places BOOST between X-CMP and OD.

 

Replacing effects in the chain with other effects (overwrite)

  1. Touch <EFFECTS PALETTE>.
  3. The icons representing all of the effects you can use on the GX-10 are shown in the top row of the screen.
  5. Drag an effect icon from the top row of the screen onto the top of the effect you want to replace.
  6. In this example, we replace OD in the chain with BOOST.
  8. A confirmation message appears once you release your finger.
  10. Touch <OK>.
  11. The OD effect in the chain is now replaced with BOOST.
