Chapter 4 Introduction to Effects and Parameters
Master
Parameter Value
Patch Level 0–200
Master BPM 40–250
Patch Level
This adjusts the output volume of the GS-10.
Master BPM
Adjust the BPM value for each patch.
* BPM (beats per minute) indicates the number of quarter note
beats that occur each minute.
* When you have an external MIDI device connected, the
Master BPM synchronizes to the external MIDI device’s
tempo, making it impossible to set the Master BPM. To enable
setting of the Master BPM, set “MIDI Sync Clock” (p. 69) to
Internal.
Foot Volume
This is a volume control effect.
Usually, this is controlled to the expression pedal.
Parameter Value
Level 0–100
Level
Adjusts the volume.
Effect Chain
Here’s how you can change the order in which the effects are
connected.
1. Press [NAME/NS/MASTER] until “Effect Chain”
appears in the display.
* With each press of [NAME/NS/MASTER], you move to the
next item that can be set, in this order:
Name
Noise Suppressor
Master

Effect Chain.

* Effects are shown in lowercase letters when turned off.
2. Use the PATCH/VALUE dial or PARAMETER [ ]
[] to move the cursor to the point where you want
to have an effect inserted.
3. Press the On/Off button for the effect you want to
insert.
The selected effect is inserted at the cursor position.
* Use [ASSIGN] to assign Foot Volume.
4. If you want to change the sequence further, repeat
Steps 2 and 3.
5. If you want to save the sequence you’ve set up, use the
Write procedure (p. 25) to save it to a User patch.
Press [EXIT] to return to the Play screen.
Effects can be switched on and off even while making
the settings for the connection order. With effects
appearing to the left and right of the cursor, the ON/
OFF button corresponding to the effect can be pressed to
turn them on/off.

To input the Master BPM with the foot switch, set
“Assign” as follows.
