Pedals and Amp

In this setup, we are using up to four drive pedals
and a single combo amp. If you add another amp,
you have a stereo setup.

The two expression pedals are optional. If
connected, you can use them to control e.g. a
volume parameter or a pitch for “whammy”.

Connecting

Connect your guitar to the Instrument Input.

Connect up to four drive pedals to the loops.

All pedals connected to the loops must remain
switched on at all times.
The G-System
activates/deactivates the loops – not the pedals!

Connect expression pedals using a single standard
1/4" jack cable. Depending on the expression pedal
model, the cable must be mono or stereo.

Connect the G-System’s Out to your amp’s input or to
the amp’s effect loop return. Use two amps for stereo
operation.

Connect expression pedals and calibrate these using
the Pedals menu.

In this section we will take a look at some examples of how the G-System can be connected to your gear. There
are probably no two setups that are 100% identical. We suggest you look for the setup that comes closest to your
own.
