Changing the Sound of a Patch
(Edit Mode)
The condition where you can change the effect types and settings that make up a patch is called "edit
mode". This section describes how to use this mode.
Patch configuration
As shown in the "Patch configuration" illustration
below, the G9.2tt can be thought of as a series of
several single effects (effect modules). A
combination of these modules and the settings for
each module are stored as a patch.
Almost all modules comprise several different
effects (called effect types), one of which is
selected at any given time. For example, the
MOD/EFX2 module allows selection of either
CHORUS, PITCH SHIFTER, DELAY, etc.
The elements that determine the sound of a patch
are called effect parameters. Each effect type has
its own parameters that can be controlled with
knobs on the panel. Even within the same module,
when the effect type is different, the effect
parameters that can be controlled will also be
different.
In the module configuration shown below, the
series of modules EXT LOOP, ZNR, PRE-AMP,
EQ, and CABINET operates as a virtual pre-amp
section. Depending on the application, this
section can be inserted after the WAH/EFX1
module or after the DELAY module (
→ p. 58).
For the ZNR, PRE-AMP and EQ modules,
different settings can be made in two channels
(A/B).
Basic edit mode steps
The basic steps that are normally taken in edit
mode are explained here. For details on effect
types and parameters for each module, see the
section "Effect Types and Parameters" on page 60
– 75.
1. Select the patch to edit.
The patch can be from a preset group (A/b) or
user group (U/u). However, if you have edited a
patch from a preset group, it can only be stored in
a user group (
→ p. 28).
2. In play mode or manual mode, press
the effect module key (see illustration
on next page) to select the module on
which to operate.
The G9.2tt switches to edit mode, and the display
changes as follows.
HINT
The effect module keys for modules that are ON in
the currently selected patch are lit in red (keys for
modules that are OFF are not lit). When you press

NOTE
• If edit mode was activated from play mode, foot
switches 1 – 5 can be used to switch patches.
However, note that editing changes will be lost
when switching patches during editing.
• When edit mode was activated from manual
mode, the foot switches 1 – 5 can be used to
switch a specific module on or off.
3. To switch the selected module
between on and off, press the same
module key once more.
When the module is off, the indication "Module
Off" is shown on the display. Pressing the same
key once more in this condition switches the
module on.
HINT
• If any module on/off status, effect type
selection, or a parameter setting value has been
changed at least once, the [STORE/SWAP] key
lights up and the indication "E" appears next to
the item.
• The "E" indication disappears when the item is
returned to the original value. However, if any
other item has been changed, the [STORE/
SWAP] key remains lit.
NOTE
The PRE-AMP, ZNR, and EQ modules can be set
to on or off separately for each channel (A/B).
4. To edit the selected module, proceed
as follows.
● When a module other than PRE-AMP/
EQ is selected
Switch the effect type as needed with the
[TYPE] knob (for modules having several
effect types), and use the parameter knobs 1 – 4
to adjust the parameters of the effect type.

When you turn a parameter knob, the display

For effect modules with only one effect type (EQ
module, CABINET module etc.), the effect type
cannot be changed.
