This changes the ltering over a periodic cycle, providing an
automatic wah eect.
You can control the wah eect in real time by adjusting the [EXP]
pedal or the expression pedal connected to the SUB CTL 1, 2/SUB
EXP jack.
This is an eect that produces a long sustain by evening out the
volume level of the input signal. You can also use it as a limiter to
suppress only the sound peaks and prevent distortion.
This adjusts the tone as a equalizer. You can adjust the sound
quality in ten bands.
Adjusts the tonal quality. You can adjust the sound quality in four
bands.
Simulation of the characteristics of particular guitar components
such as pickups and dierent guitar bodies allows you to switch
among a number of dierent guitar types all while using a single
guitar.
This simulates the sound of the sitar.
This eect changes the pitch of the original sound (up or down)
within a range of two octaves.
Harmonist is an eect where the amount of shifting is adjusted
according to an analysis of the guitar input, allowing you to create
harmony based on diatonic scales.
You can have sound played on the guitar be held continuously.
This eect allows you to perform the melody in the upper registers
while holding a note in the lower registers.
This processor allows you to change the sound produced by the
pickup on an acoustic electric guitar, creating a richer sound
similar to that obtained with a microphone placed close to the
guitar.
By adding varied-phase portions to the direct sound, the phaser
eect gives a whooshing, swirling character to the sound.
The anging eect gives a twisting, jet-airplane-like character to
the sound.
This models a Uni-Vibe.
Although this resembles a phaser eect, it also provides a unique
undulation that you can’t get with a regular phaser.

2X2 CHORUS
SUB DELAY
changing, when playing sound in stereo, you can get an eect that
makes the guitar sound appear to y back and forth between the
speakers.
This consecutively interrupts the sound to create the impression
that a rhythm backing phrase is being played.
This creates a bell-like sound by ring-modulating the guitar sound
with the signal from the internal oscillator. The sound can be
unmusical and lack distinctive pitches.
Frequency band division is employed to produce two dierent
choruses, one for low frequencies and one for higher frequencies,
for both the left and right channels (for a total of four). This allows
you to achieve a more natural chorus sound.
This is a delay with the maximum delay time of 1,000 ms. This
eect is useful for making the sound fatter.

WAVE SYNTH
This is a synth sound that processes the guitar input signal.

played simultaneously) cannot be played. Be sure to mute all the
other strings and play only one note at a time.
• When you are to play the next string while a certain sound is still
playing, mute the previous sound and then play the next one with
a clear attack. If the unit cannot detect the attack, it may not sound
correctly.
• The sensitivity may vary according to the guitar’s TONE knob and

EFFECT
HARMONIST
Harmonist is an eect where the amount of shifting is adjusted according
to an analysis of the guitar input, allowing you to create harmony based
on diatonic scales.
* Because of the need to analyze the pitch, chords (two or more sounds
played simultaneously) cannot be played.
* When you are to play the next string while a certain sound is still playing,
mute the previous sound and then play the next one with a clear attack.
If the unit cannot detect the attack, it may not sound correctly.
* The sensitivity may vary according to the guitar’s TONE knob and pickup
type.
* You cannot use the Harmonist eect with audio input via USB.

to the guitar input of a Roland JC-120 guitar
amp.
Choose this setting if the GT-100 is connected
to a small guitar amp.
Choose this setting if the GT-100 is connected
to the guitar input of a combo-type guitar
amp (i.e., a single unit that contains the amp
and speaker) other than the JC-120.
For some types of guitar amps, the “JC-120”
setting might produce better results.
Choose this setting if the GT-100 is connected
to the guitar input of a stack-type guitar amp
(i.e., one in which the amp and speaker are
separate units).
Choose this setting if the GT-100 is connected
to the RETURN jack of the JC-120.
Choose this setting if the GT-100 is connected
to the RETURN jack of a combo-type guitar

Choose this setting if the GT-100 is connected
to the RETURN jack of a stack-type guitar
amp. You should also choose the “STACK

power amp together with a speaker cabinet.
Choose this setting if you’re using
headphones, or if the GT-100 is connected to
a keyboard amp, mixer, or digital recorder.
INPUT

This lets you create a variety of performances
by layering dierent sounds.
The sound before being processed by the
eects will be recorded, and the eects will
be applied when the loop is played back.
This is a convenient way to adjust the eects,
or to compare the sound of dierent patches.
The phrase will be recorded in monaural
(maximum 38 seconds).
The phrase will be recorded in stereo
(maximum 19 seconds).
Phrase Loop will not operate even if you
press the [PHRASE LOOP] pedal.
You can use the [PHRASE LOOP] pedal to
switch Phrase Loop on/o or to record.

The operational status of the EXP PEDAL’s

are switched.
If the EXP PEDAL’s FUNC (p. 31) are the same

carried over when patches are switched.
For example, if EXP PEDAL FUNC is set to
FOOT VOLUME in both patches, the one
before and the one after the change, the
volume corresponding to the position the
pedal is in (angle) at the time of the patch
change will be maintained after the patch
change. On the other hand, if the patch being
changed to is set to WAH, the volume will be
in accordance with the value set within the
patch, and you’ll obtain a wah eect that is
in accordance with a value that reects the
current position (angle) of the pedal.

Virtual expression pedal system (Internal
Pedal / Wave Pedal)
By assigning a desired parameter to the virtual expression pedal, you can
produce an eect as though you were operating a physical expression
pedal to change the volume or tone quality in real time.
The virtual expression pedal system provides the following two types of
functions, and you can use the SOURCE setting for ASSIGN 1–8 to choose
the desired type.
* If you want to use the internal pedal or wave pedal, set the ASSIGN
parameter SOURCE MODE to “MOMENT.”
Internal pedal
If SOURCE is set to “INT PEDAL,” the virtual expression pedal will begin
operating when started by the specied trigger (INT PDL TRIGGER),
modifying the parameter specied by TARGET.
The value changes in a curve
When the trigger occurs
Wave pedal
If SOURCE is set to “WAVE PEDAL,” the virtual expression pedal will
cyclically modify the parameter specied by TARGET in a xed wave form.
About the Range of a Target’s Change
The value of the parameter selected as the target changes within
the range dened by “Min” and “Max,” as set on the GT-100.
When using an external footswitch, or other controller that acts as
an on/o switch, “Min” is selected with O (CLOSED), and “Max” is
selected with On (OPEN).
When using an external expression pedal or other controller that
generates a consecutive change in the value, the value of the
setting changes accordingly, within the range set by the minimum
and maximum values. Also, when the target is of an on/o type,
the median value of the received data is used as the dividing line in
determining whether to switch it on or o.
When using the footswitch:

* The range that can be selected changes according to the target
setting.
* When the “minimum” is set to a higher value than the “maximum,”
the change in the parameter is reversed.
* “The values of settings can change if the target is changed after
the “minimum” and “maximum” settings have been made. If
you’ve changed the target, be sure to recheck the “minimum” and
“maximum” settings.

About the Range of a Controller’s Change
This sets the operational range within which the value of the setting
changes when an expression pedal or other controller that changes
the value consecutively is used as the source. If the controller is
moved outside the operational range, the value does not change, it
stops at “minimum” or “maximum.”
