8. Adjust the CHANNEL 1 BASS and Treble equalizer controls
to taste. (When you get a great setting that complement your
instrument and playing style, it’s a good idea to write it down
for future use.) Also, see the section GT100 Sample Settings
on page 44 in this manual.
9. Next, experiment with the CRUNCH control. You'll know
that the CRUNCH control is active when its red LED is illu-
minated. You can select it on or off using button 1 on the
included footswitch. If the footswitch is not connected, the
CRUNCH is always on and its red LED will stay lit. You can turn
the CRUNCH control all the way down (fully counterclock-
wise) to bypass the control when the footswitch is not con-
nected as well.
10. Now, press the CHANNEL SWITCH (or the footswitch) to
select CHANNEL 2.
11. Set the CHANNEL 2 GAIN to “10” position (fully clockwise)
and then, while playing, slowly turn the GT Series CHANNEL 2
VOLUME control up until the desired level is achieved.
NOTE: With the GAIN control on “10” you will get the most
overdrive from CHANNEL 2. You can turn down the GAIN
control for less distortion.
12. Adjust the CHANNEL 2 BASS, MID and TREBLE equalizer
controls to taste. (When you get a great setting that comple-
ment your instrument and playing style, it’s a good idea to
write it down for future use.)
13. Test the headphone output by turning the active chan-
nel's Volume control to its minimum (fully counterclockwise)
position and then connect a standard stereo headphone to
the front panel Phones jack. While playing your guitar, slowly
turn the Volume control up—you should hear sound from the
headphones and none from the connected speaker.
