Chapter 2 Creating You Own Favorite Tones (Patches)
Getting the Tones You Want-
Fast (EZ Tone)
In addition to tones (patches) that you can actually use in
performances, the GT-6B also features internal sample
settings that are very useful when you want to create such
tones on your own. This feature is called “EZ Tone.”
Using the EZ Tone function lets you quickly find tone
settings similar to the ones you want to create.

those for the tone you want.

and turn the knobs to adjust the tone.

* You can press [EZ TONE] again to compare the tone in use
before entering EZ Tone mode with the present tone.
4. Press [EXIT] to return to the Play screen.
The tone switches to the tone selected in EZ Tone.
* Pressing [EXIT] while the readout is flashing (when the tone
prior to switching to EZ Tone mode is selected) returns you to
the patch that was selected before going into EZ Tone mode.
* If you want to save a tone you’ve created, use the Write
procedure (p. 23) to save it to a User patch.
Adjusting the Tones with the
Knobs
The GT-6B panel features fifteen knob controls. These knobs
let you make changes to the selected patch’s tone quickly and
easily.
* There are also other methods you can use to adjust the tone.
For more details, refer to p. 19.

COMP ATK (Compressor attack)
This gives you a strong attack from picking when “BOSS
Comp”, “D-Comp” is selected as the type. The attack
becomes sharper as you turn the knob to the right, giving a
sound with greater bite.
LIMITER THR (Limiter threshold)
This adjusts the volume level at which the limiter is activated
when “Rack 160D” is selected as the type. As the knob is
turned to the left, the limiter effect is apparent at lower
volume levels.
When “Vtg Rack U” is selected as the type, this adjusts the
volume of the sound input to the limiter. The effect becomes
deeper as you turn the knob to the right.
COMP SUS (Compressor sustain)
This adjusts the amount of sustain when “BOSS Comp”, “D-
Comp” is selected as the type. More of the effect is added as
you turn the knob to the right, lengthening the sustain time,
while also bringing out noise that occurs when you are not
playing the instrument.
LIMITER RATIO
This adjusts the limiter’s compression ratio when “Rack
160D” or “Vtg Rack U” is selected as the type. The
compression gets stronger as the knob is turned to the right.
* By pressing [TYPE VARIATION], you can then switch the
COMP/LIMITER type.
