About the GNX1

The Presets
Presets are named and numbered locations of programmed sounds which reside in the GNX1. Presets can be recalled with the Footswitches or the Data Up and Down Switches.The GNX1 comes with 48 Factory and 48 User Presets available.The Factory Presets will not allow you to store any changes to them.The User Presets are locations where your creations may be stored. From the factory, the 48 User Presets are exact duplicates of the 48 Factory Presets. This allows you to make your own Presets without the worry of losing any of the original sounds that the GNX1 came with.When you select a Preset, the name of the Preset will be shown in the green alpha-numeric Display and the number of the Preset will be shown in the red numeric Display. The LED at the top of the Bank/Preset Footswitch will light green to indicate a User Preset and red to indicate a Factory Preset.

Performance Mode

When you first apply power to the GNX1, it will power up in Performance mode.This is the top level mode and the mode used while you are performing.While in Performance mode, the Display will show the currently selected Presets name and number. The vertical LEDs on the Matrix will indicate the Effects which are active in the selected Preset. From Performance mode, you have access to all of the Presets within the GNX1 with your choice of assigning the Footswitches to either Preset Mode or FX Mode.

Amp/Cabinet Modeling

Once you have selected a Preset you wish to edit, you can select the Amp Models or Cabinet Types for your Preset. Amp/Cabinet Modeling is a technology which applies the tone of one of several vintage or modern Amp Models and Cabinet Types to your guitar signal. The GNX1 includes accurate emulations of 15 popular Amp Models, 1 Acoustic Guitar Simulation, and 6 Speaker Cabinet Types.Your choices include: Amp Models CRUNCH 10 - A nice crunchy tube amp combo DIRECT 1 - Turns the amp modeling off HIGAIN 11 - A high gain tube amp BLKFAC 2 - Based on a 65 Fender Twin Reverb BLUES 12 - A sweet blues tone BOUTIQ 3 - Based on a Matchless DC30 MODGAN 13 - Based on a Marshall JCM900 RECTIF 4 - Based on a Mesa Dual Rectifier FUZZ 14 - A vintage fuzz distortion HOTROD 5 - Based on a Mesa Boogie Mark II C BASSMN 15 - Based on a Fender Bassman tweeD 6 - Based on a 57 Fender Tweed Deluxe HIWATG 16- Based on a HiWatt 50 watt stack BRTCMB 7 - Based on a Vox AC30 top boost ACOUST 17 - A flat top acoustic guitar CLNTUB 8 - A clean tube combo setting BRTSTK 9 - Based on a 78 Marshall Master Volume EMPTY U1 to U9 - User HyperModel Locations

Editing Amp Models and Cabinet Types
Each Preset in the GNX1 is equipped with a Green, Red, and Yellow (Warped) Amp Channel.The Green and Red Amp Channels include individually assignable Amp Models, Cabinet Types, Gain, EQ, and Level settings.The Speaker Cabinet can also be tuned meaning that you can select the Cabinets resonant frequency. Once these Parameters have been adjusted for the Green and Red channels, they can be toggled instantly by use of the Amp Channel Footswitch (only when FX Mode is active).The Amp Models, Gain, EQ, and Level characteristics selected for the Green and Red channels can then be Warped together resulting in a completely new HyperModel.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the desired HyperModel name is shown in the Display. 5. Press the Amp Save button again to select one of the 9 User HyperModel locations. If the GNX1 has any unused HyperModel locations available, the Display will read EMPTY U1.The U1 will be flashing indicating that this is the first available location for your new creation to be stored. If all 9 HyperModel locations are filled, the GNX1 will default to the first HyperModel location and will display the name of HyperModel stored in the number 1 location. 6. Use the Data Up/Down buttons to select the User location where the HyperModel will be saved. If all locations have been used, the Display will show the name of the HyperModel about to be overwritten.
7. Once the desired location has been selected, press the Amp Save button again to complete the Amp Save procedure. Pressing the Exit button at any time during the Amp Save procedure will abort the process. Note: The Amp Save procedure only saves Amp/Cabinet combinations to the User HyperModel locations. It does not store any changes or the new HyperModel to the currently selected Preset. See page 17 for information on storing changes to a Preset

Editing the Effects

The GNX1 contains a comprehensive library of fully programmable, studio quality Effects. The Effects section is accessed with the Effect Select Up/Down buttons.The Matrix LEDs will light one at a time to indicate the selected Effect row.When you have selected the desired effect row, you have up to 5 Parameters which can be edited. Each effect row has been divided into 6 columns of Parameters.The first column is the on/off control for the selected effect. Pressing the Status button at the top of the first column will turn the selected effect row on or off.The knobs at the top of the other 5 columns will control the Parameters listed directly beneath the corresponding knob for the selected Effect group. Each Effect Parameter is labeled in the Matrix.When a knob is turned, the corresponding Parameter name will appear in the green alpha-numeric Display and the Parameter value will be shown in the red numeric Display.
Rotating the Parameter knobs will increase or decrease the value of the corresponding Parameter and you will hear the change in real time.When Parameter values have been changed, the Store LED will light indicating the Preset has been modified and must be stored in order to retain your changes (see page 17 for more on the store procedure). Changing Presets, or turning the power off before storing any changes will erase your changes and revert to the stored values for the selected Preset.When the Preset has been edited to your liking, you may store your settings to any of the 48 User Preset locations.

Storing/Copying a Preset

When editing a Preset, the Store LED will light indicating that you have changed a Parameter and need to store the changes. Once you have modified the Amp Models, Cabinet types, and Effect Parameters to your liking, you can store your creation to a User Preset location.The following steps outline the procedure for storing a Preset: 1. Press the Store button once and the GNX1 will enter a naming mode.The first letter of the currently loaded Preset name will begin to flash. 2. Use the Data Up/Down buttons to select the desired alpha-numeric character 3.

Simply begin by selecting the Preset that you want to copy, then follow the steps listed above. Pressing the Exit button at any time during the Store procedure will abort the Store process.
SECTION THREE - EFFECTS AND PARAMETERS

About the Effects

The GNX1 can be thought of as several different virtual amplifiers, and individual, hi-tech stomp boxes.With stomp boxes, the order in which they are connected can make a big difference in how good the overall sound is.Whether the stomp boxes are placed before the amp, or in the amps effects loop will also make a difference.The GNX1 has the Effects connected in the most logical, and best sounding order.The following diagram shows the signal path through the processing contained in the GNX1.

Effect Definitions

Each Effect within the GNX1 is fully programmable to suit your personal tastes and application. Understanding how these Effects will alter the sound, and how each Parameter will alter the Effect will help you achieve the sound you are looking for.The following overview outlines how each Effect and Parameter in the GNX1 will alter the sound.
A Wah is an effect controlled by the Expression Pedal. A Wah applies a boost in gain to a narrow band of frequencies. As the Expression Pedal is rocked back and forth, the center frequency receiving the boost is swept up and down making the guitar sound as if it is saying Wah. The Wah is engaged and disengaged by applying pressure to the VSwitch located under the toe of the Expression Pedal. See Page 35 for more information regarding the V-Switch. The Pickup Simulator applies the warmth and thickness of a double coil humbucker pickup to a single coil guitar, or the unique, crisp sound of a single coil pickup to a guitar with a humbucker.This allows you to have the best of both worlds without ever changing guitars. Wah On/Off - The Status button (or the V-Switch) engages and disengages the Wah effect. Wah Type - The Number 1 Knob selects the type of Wah.Values include: CRY (Cry Wah is a traditional sounding Wah), BOTIQU (Boutique Wah is a wide sweeping Wah with a more modern sound) and FULRNG (Full Range Wah sweeps the entire spectrum of audible frequencies). Wah Minimum - The Number 2 Knob is used to select the minimum point the Wah (WAHMIN) will reach in the toe up position of the Expression Pedal. Ranges from 0 to 99. Wah Maximum - The Number 3 Knob is used to select the maximum point the Wah (WAHMAX) will reach in the toe down position of the Expression Pedal. Ranges from 0 to 99. Pickup Type/Off -The Number 4 Knob selects the type of Pick Up to be be simulated.Values include: PCKOFF (Pickup Simulator Off), SC>HB (Gives a single coil pick up the warm tone of a humbucker), and HB>SC (Gives a humbucker the unique sound of a single coil). The Number 5 knob has no function when the Wah-Pickup is selected. A Compressor can be used to increase sustain, and tighten up guitars. A Compressor sets boundaries for a signals strength.When a signal exceeds the set boundary, it is forced back into the set boundary. As the signal fades to a point where it no longer exceeds the boundary, the compressor expands the signal strength and increases sustain. Compression Parameters are as follows: Comp On/Off - The Status button engages and disengages the Compressor. Attack - The Number 1 Knob adjusts the length of time it takes for the Compressor to respond to a signal exceeding the Threshold. Values include: fast, meDIUM, and slOw. Ratio - The Number 2 Knob adjusts the input to output ratio once the Threshold has been exceeded. For instance, a Ratio of 4 to 1 means that a signal exceeding the Threshold by 4 dB will only be allowed 1 dB of increased output. Higher settings yield a tighter, sound and increase sustain. Lower settings allow better dynamics. Ranges include: 2-1 (1.2:1), 5-1 (1.5:1), 8-1 (1.8:1), 0-1 (2:1), 5-1 (2.5:1), 0-1 (3:1), 0-1 (4:1), 0-1 (5:1), 0-1 (8:1), 10-1 (10:1), 20-1 (20:1), and INF-1 (infinity:1).

Wah-Pickup

Compressor
Threshold - The Number 3 Knob selects the maximum strength the signal is allowed to reach before the compressor begins to work. Low Threshold settings will activate the Compressor with weaker signals. Higher settings will require a stronger signal to activate compression. Ranges from 0 to 99. Gain - The Number 4 Knob adjusts the Output Gain from the Compressor.This parameter should be used to balance the level of the Compressor in order to achieve unity gain. It is possible to clip other effects in the GNX1 by setting the Compressor Gain too high. Ranges from 0 to 20 (dB). The Number 5 knob has no function when the Compressor is selected.

Whammy/IPS

This module includes 4 types of pitch altering effects:Whammy, IPS, Detune, and Pitch Shift.The Status button engages (IPS ON) and disengages (IPSOFF) the Whammy/IPS module.The Number 1 Knob (Type) selects whether the module is a WHAMMY (Whammy), IPS (Intelligent Pitch Shifter), DETUNE (Detuner), or PITCH (Pitch Shifter). Parameters 1, 2, and 3 in the Matrix will have different functions depending upon which effect is selected in this module. Whammy is an effect that uses an Expression Pedal to bend the pitch of the incoming signal, or add a bendable harmony with the original signal. As the Pedal is moved, the note will bend either up or down.When Whammy is selected, it is automatically placed before the Amp Modeling as shown in the block diagram (at the beginning of the Effects section).The Whammy effect must be linked to the Expression Pedal in order to function. See page 32 for more information on linking the Expression Pedal. Parameter 1 (Whammy) - The Number 2 Knob selects the interval and direction of the pitch bend. Choices are as follows: Harmony Bends (Dry Signal Added) Whammy (no Dry Signal) M3>MA3 (a minor third to a Major third) 1OCTUP (1 octave up) 2NDMA3 (a second above to a Major third up) 2OCTUP (2 octaves up) 3RD4TH (a third above to a fourth up) 2NDDWN (a second down) 4TH5TH (a fourth above to a fifth up) REV2ND (a second down reversed pedal action) 5THOCT (a fifth above to an octave up) 4THDWN (a fourth down) HOCTUP (one octave up) 1OCTDN (an octave down) HOCTDN (one octave down) 2OCTDN (2 octaves down) OCTU>D (one octave up to one octave down) DIVBOM (Dive Bomb) Parameter 2 (Whammy) - The Number 3 Knob provides a manual control of the Whammy pedal position. Ranges from 0 to 99. The Number 4 knob has no function when the Whammy is selected. Intelligent Pitch Shifting (IPS) makes a copy of the incoming signal, and then changes the pitch of the copied note to a diatonically correct interval specified by the Amount Parameter. An Intelligent Pitch Shifter differs from a regular Pitch Shifter in the fact that an Intelligent Pitch Shifter will sharp or flat the shifted pitch in order to keep the specified interval within the selected key and scale creating a true harmony. Parameter 1 (IPS) - The Number 2 Knob selects the Amount or harmony interval for the Intelligent Pitch Shifter. Interval choices include: OCTDN (octave down) 2NDUP (a second above) 7THDN (a seventh below) 3RDUP (a third above) 6tHDN (a sixth below) 4THUP (a fourth above) 5tHDN (a fifth below) 5THUP (a fifth above) 4tHDN (a fourth below) 6THUP (a sixth above) 3RDDN (a third below) 7THUP (a seventh above) 2NDDN (a second below) OCTUP (an octave above) Parameter 2 (IPS) - The Number 3 Knob selects the scale the IPS will use. Key choices include: MAJOR (Major), MINOR (minor), DORIAN (Dorian), MIXLYD (Mixolydian), LYDIAN (Lydian), HARMIN (Harmonic minor). Parameter 3 (IPS) - The Number 4 Knob selects the musical key the IPS will use. Key choices range from KEY E (Key E) through KEY E&(Key Eb).

MIDI Mapping

The MIDI Mapping in the GNX1 allows any of the Factory, or User Preset to be accessed from external MIDI program change commands which may not necessarily correspond to the desired GNX1 Preset.This is useful when multiple MIDI devices are chained together and are all controlled by one central unit. For example, the main MIDI controller can send out a program change command telling a particular MIDI unit to change to Program 10, but you may want the GNX1 to change to User Preset 27.You can remap the GNX1 so when it receives MIDI Program change 10, it calls up User Preset 27.
