Channel T
racking:
Your Crate GTX120/212 gives you the power of Channel Tracking! Once you select a DSP set-
ting for each channel, Channel Tracking recalls those DSP settings automatically – without chang-
ing the DSP controls! For example:
Select the Clean channel. Set the DSP Mode to “8”
(slow deep flange w/reverb)
Select the Rhythm/Solo channel, Gain 1. Set the DSP Mode to “10” (slow chorus w/reverb)
(the setting for the Clean channel is now saved to memory)
Select the Rhythm/Solo channel, Gain 2. Set the DSP Mode to “14” (touch wah)
(the setting for the Rhythm/Solo channel, Gain 1 is now saved to memory)
• Reselect the Clean channel (the setting for the Rhythm/Solo channel, Gain 2 is now saved to memory)
Now when you go back to the Clean channel, even though the DSP Mode was last set to “14”
(touch wah), Channel Tracking automatically recalls the last setting for the Clean channel – in this
example, “8” (slow flange). Change to the Rhythm/Solo channel, Gain 1, and “10” (chorus) is
recalled. Change to the Rhythm/Solo channel, Gain 2, and “14” (touch wah) is recalled. That’s the
power of Channel Tracking!
(Note: Even when the power is turned off, Channel Tracking still retains the settings – until you change them!)
Use the DSP Mode control to access
any of the 16 built-in digital effects.
Use the Level control to mix in the
desired amount of each effect.
