Settings for the Entire GR-55 (SYSTEM)
MIDI/USB
Tab Parameter Value Description
GENERAL
PATCH CH 1–16
Species the MIDI channel that will control patches.
To switch patches on the GR-55, send a program change message on this MIDI channel.
MIDI messages from an external device are also received on this MIDI channel. Received control changes
are sent to ASSIGN SOURCE (p.57).
PC RX SWITCH OFF, ON
Turn this “ON” if you want program change messages from an external device to switch patches. You can
use the RX BANK/PC MAP to change the correspondence between incoming program change numbers
and the GR-55’s patches.
PC TX SWITCH OFF, ON
Turn this “ON” if you want program change messages to be transmitted when you switch patches on the
GR-55.
MIDI SYNC OFF, ON
Turn this “ON” if you want the tempo of tempo-synchronized eects to synchronize with an external
device.
MIDI CLOCK OUT OFF, ON
If this is “ON,” MIDI clock data will be transmitted to an external MIDI device.
This data will not be transmitted if MIDI SYNC is “ON.”
V-LINK TX CH 1–16 Species the MIDI channel used to control V-LINK devices.
GTR-MIDI
SWITCH OFF, ON If this is “OFF,” guitar performance data will not be transmitted from MIDI OUT.
MODE
This sets the transmission mode for the MIDI messages.
MONO
In this mode, one channel per string is used, thus using a total of six channels.
Since each string uses a dierent MIDI channel, you can select a dierent tone for each string, using string
bending or continuously varying the pitch on a specic string; however, this requires use of a multitimbral
sound module.
POLY
In this mode, the messages for all six strings are transmitted over a single channel.
While transmitting the MIDI messages for all of the strings over one channel does simplify the settings
needed for the sound module and reduces the number of MIDI channels used, it does impose certain
limitations; for example, permitting only one tone to be selected for all of the strings.
CHROMATIC OFF, ON Turn this ON if you want to play an external sound module chromatically.
STRING CH 1–11
Species the MIDI channel used to transmit guitar performance data. If MODE is set to “MONO,” the data
will be transmitted using six channels starting with the channel you specify here. If it is set to “POLY,”
performance data for all strings will be sent on the channel you specify here.
DATA THIN OFF, ON If this is “ON,” pitch bend data will be thinned-out to reduce the volume of MIDI data.
CTL PDL CC OFF, 1–31, 64–95
Species the control change numbers that are transmitted when you operate a pedal. Turn this “OFF” if
you don’t want the pedals to transmit data.
EXP PDL CC OFF, 1–31, 64–95
EXP PDL BEND
RANGE
-24–+24
Species the maximum pitch change amount when transmitting pitch bend data from the expression
pedal to an external sound module. Set this to “0” if you don’t want the expression pedal to transmit pitch
bend data.
GK VOL CC OFF, 1–31, 64–95
Determine the control change numbers that will be transmitted when you operate the GK pickup’s
volume knob or [S1]/[S2] buttons.
Turn this “OFF” if you don’t want these controls to transmit data.
GK S1 CC OFF, 1–31, 64–95
GK S2 CC OFF, 1–31, 64–95
RX PC MAP
MAP SELECT
When using program change data transmitted from an external MIDI device to switch patches on the GR-55, this setting species
whether the correspondence between the received program number and the patch will be xed, or whether it can be specied
freely.
FIX
The incoming program change data will select the predetermined patch regardless of the BANK/PC
settings.
PROG The patch specied by BANK/PC will be selected.
BANK 0–63 Select the bank number (MSB 0–63) of the program change shown in the RX PC MAP (the LSB is xed at 0).
PC
Here you can edit the correspondence between the incoming program change numbers and the patch that will be selected for
each number.
[LEAD] **-*
[RHYTHM] **-*
[OTHER] **-*
[USER] **-*
Specify the patch number ([LEAD] 01-1–[USER] 99-3) that will correspond to each incoming program
change number (bank number).
