3.

Turn parameter knob 1 to set the
tempo.

The tempo setting range is 40 – 250.

4.

To synchronize a parameter to the
specified tempo, select the effect
type and effect parameter to
synchronize, and select the note
symbol as the setting value for the
parameter.

The setting value for effect parameters which
support tempo synchronization can be selected in
note units, using the patch specific tempo as a
reference.

For example, the Time parameter of the effect
type TAPE ECHO in the MOD/EFX2 module
supports patch specific tempo synchronization.
To use this capability, turn the respective
parameter knob from the maximum setting (2000)
further clockwise until a note symbol appears on
the display.

HINT

In the section "Effect Types and Parameters" (

pages 60 – 75), parameters which support tempo
synchronization are indicated by a note symbol.

5.

Select a parameter value by selecting
a note symbol.

The following note settings for parameters which
support tempo synchronization are available.

NOTE

The actual available setting range depends on the
parameter.

When you have selected the eighth note setting,
the Time parameter will be set to a value that
corresponds to an eighth note in the patch specific
tempo. When the tempo is changed, the delay
time also changes accordingly.

NOTE

Depending on the combination of tempo setting
and selected note symbol, the maximum value of
the parameter setting range (such as 2000 ms)
may be exceeded. In such a case, the value is
automatically halved (or set to 1/4 if the range is
still exceeded).

6.

When the tempo and parameter
setting is complete, press the [EXIT]
key.

The unit returns to play mode. Store the patch as
necessary.

The above procedure uses the tempo set in step 3
as reference for the note setting made in step 5. If
the "BPM TAP" function is assigned to function
foot switch 1/2, you can specify the tempo with
your foot during a performance and have the
parameter change accordingly.

Using the Effect Loop

The EXT LOOP SEND/RETURN jacks on the rear panel of the G9.2tt allow connection of a compact
effect, rack-mount effect or similar. Settings for external effect on/off and send/return level can be stored
as part of a patch. This section explains how to use the effect loop.

1.

Connect the external effect to the
EXT LOOP SEND/RETURN jacks.

HINT

When connecting to an effect that has a rated
input level of +4 dBm (rack-mount effect or
similar), set the EXT LOOP GAIN switch to the "+4
dBm" setting. When connecting to an instrument
effect or a compact effect, use the "-10 dBm"
setting.

NOTE

• The external effect should always be set to ON,

to allow effect on/off switching at the G9.2tt.

• If the external effect allows adjustment of mixing

ratio between original sound and effect sound
(such as a reverb or delay), set the original
sound to 0% and the effect sound to 100%.

2.

Select the patch in play mode.

HINT

Effect loop settings can be made individually for
each patch.

3.

Press the [EXT LOOP] effect module
key to activate edit mode.

Effect loop settings are made in the EXT LOOP
module.
The display changes as follows.

NOTE

When "EXT LOOP Module OFF" is shown, the EXT
LOOP module is currently turned off. Press the
[EXT LOOP] key to turn the module on.

4.

Use parameter knob 1 to adjust the
level of the signal sent from the G9.2tt
to the external effect (send level).

HINT

If the input level at the external effect is not
sufficient even with the send level turned up, or if
distortion occurs at the external effect input even
with the send level turned down, check whether
the EXT LOOP GAIN switch setting is appropriate.

5.

Use parameter knob 2 to adjust the
level of the signal sent from the
external effect to the G9.2tt (return
level).

6.

Use parameter knob 3 to adjust the
level balance between the signal
returned from the external effect and
the internal signal of the G9.2tt (dry
level).
