Boss Audio Systems Boss CDSM AMP EFFECTS PROCESSOR GT-100 - Manual (Page 23)

EFFECT
23
SEND/RETURN
You can connect an external effects processor between the SEND jack and
RETURN jack, and use it as one of the GT-100’s effects processors .
The sound that is input to SEND/RETURN within the effect chain will be
output to the SEND jack . The sound that is input via the RETURN jack will
be input to SEND/RETURN within the effect chain .
Parameter Value Explanation
SEND/
RETURN
ON/OFF
OFF, ON Turns the SEND/RETURN on/off .
MODE
NORMAL
The input to SEND/RETURN within the effect
chain will be output to the SEND jack, and
the input from the RETURN jack will be
output following SEND/RETURN .
Use this setting if you want to connect an
external effects processor in series within the
GT-100’s effect chain .
SEND RETURN
DIRECT MIX
The input to SEND/RETURN within the effect
chain will be output to the SEND jack, and
the input from the RETURN jack and the input
to SEND/RETURN (the direct sound) will be
mixed and output following SEND/RETURN .
Use this when you want to mix the GT-100’s
effects sounds together with the sound with
the external effects device applied to it .
SEND RETURN
BRANCH OUT
The input to SEND/RETURN within the effect
chain will be output to the SEND jack . The
input from the RETURN jack will be ignored .
For example, by placing SEND/RETURN in
the GT-100’s effect chain in front of reverb or
delay, this allows you to use the SEND jack as
a dry out .
SEND
SEND LEVEL 0–200
Adjusts the volume of the output to the
external effects device .
RETURN
LEVEL
0–200
Adjusts the volume of the input from the
external effects device .
NS1/NS2
This effect reduces the noise and hum picked up by guitar pickups . Since
it suppresses the noise in synchronization with the envelope of the guitar
sound (the way in which the guitar sound decays over time), it has very
little effect on the guitar sound, and does not harm the natural character
of the sound .
Parameter Value Explanation
NS ON/OFF OFF, ON Switches the noise suppressor effect on/off .
THRESH 0–100
Adjust this parameter as appropriate for the volume
of the noise . If the noise level is high, a higher setting
is appropriate . If the noise level is low, a lower setting
is appropriate . Adjust this value until the decay of the
guitar sound is as natural as possible .
* High settings for the threshold parameter may result
in there being no sound when you play with your
guitar volume turned down .
RELEASE 0–100
Adjusts the time from when the noise suppressor
begins to function until the noise level reaches “0 .”
DETECT
This controls the noise suppressor based on the volume level for
the point specified in Detect .
INPUT
Input volume from input jack .
* Ordinarily, DETECT should be set to “INPUT .”
NS INPUT
Noise suppressor input volume .
* When connected as illustrated below, and you want
to prevent a spatial-type effects sound (such as a
delay sound) from being eradicated by the NS, you
should set DETECT to “NS INPUT .”
(Spatial-type effect)
NS1 DLY
FV OUT
Volume after passing through Foot Volume .
* If you want to use FV (Foot Volume) in place of the
guitar’s volume control, you need to set DETECT to
“FV OUT .”
