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.
