Adjusting the Volume ( VOLUME)
Here’s how to adjust the overall volume of the GAIA
SH-01’s sound, which is output from the OUTPUT jacks on
the rear panel and the PHONES jack.
Turning the knob toward the right will increase the
volume, and turning it toward the left will decrease the
volume. There will be no sound if you turn the knob all the
way to the left.
* This knob does not a ect the output volume of USB
audio (p. 42).
Selecting Sounds
1. Press the [PRESET PATCH] button or the [USER
PATCH] button.
These buttons switch you between the preset group and
the user group.
If you want to select patches that are saved in USB
memory, press the USB MEMORY [PATCH] button.
2. Press the [BANK] button, and then press one of
the NUMBER [A]–[H] buttons.
These buttons allow you to select among banks A–H.
3. Press one of the NUMBER [1]–[8] buttons.
Patch 1–8 will be selected.
Example:
• If the USER A-1 patch is currently selected, pressing the
NUMBER [6] button will switch you to the USER A-6 patch.
• If the PRESET A-4 patch is currently selected, holding down
the [BANK] button and pressing the NUMBER [C] button
will switch you to the PRESET C-4 patch.
• If the PRESET B-5 patch is selected, pressing the [USER
PATCH] button will switch you to the USER B-5 patch.
About Patches
The GAIA SH-01 lets you store the sounds that you create.
A sound you create is called a “patch”; you can use the
buttons to recall a patch and then play it.
Patches are organized into a “preset group” and a “user
group.” If you use USB memory (sold separately), you’ll also
be able to use the “USB memory group.”
Each group contains 64 patches, organized into eight
banks with eight numbers in each bank.
Preset group (PRESET)
This group contains 64 patches that are already created for
your use.
Although you cannot rewrite the contents of this group,
you are free to create new sounds based on these patches.
To put the instrument in a special mode in which it func-
tions as a PCM sound generator, hold down the [PRESET
PATCH] button while you press a NUMBER [1]--[8] button.
While in this mode, you can enjoy realistic instrumental
performances that take full advantage of the PCM sound
generator.
* The sounds provided by the PCM sound generator are
read-only sounds. Although you will be able to perform
a limited amount of editing and carry out performances
that use e ects (reverb), you won’t be able to save any of
the settings you make.
Note also that PRESET BANK H contains the sounds
actually used for the supplied DVD.
User group (USER)
Sounds that you create can be saved in this group of 64
patches.
For details on how to save a sound, refer to “Saving a
Sound You’ve Created (WRITE)” (p. 39).
USB memory group (USB MEMORY)
When using USB memory (sold separately), sounds that
you create can be saved in this group. USB memory can
hold 64 patches.
For details on how to save a sound, refer to “Saving a
Sound You’ve Created (WRITE)” (p. 39).
Banks (BANK)
There are eight banks (A–H), and eight patches can be
saved in each bank. The banks provide a convenient way
to organize the 64 patches.
For example, you could use bank A to hold the patches
you’ll be using in the rst song of your live performance,
and bank B to hold the patches for the second song.
Alternatively, you could use bank A to hold synth bass
patches and bank B to hold lead patches.
