Making Connections
You will need a guitar on which the GK-2A has been
installed, or a GK compatible guitar.
The following equipment will add additional functionality to
your VGA-7 system.
• MIDI Foot Controller (sold separately: Roland FC-200)
• Expression Pedal (sold separately: Roland EV-5, BOSS
FV-300L)
• Foot Switch (sold separately: BOSS FS-5U/FS-5L)
* Use only the specified expression pedal (EV-5 or BOSS FV-
300L; sold separately). By connecting any other expression
pedals, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.
* Use an FS-5U (momentary type) foot switch to change
program numbers.
After you have prepared your guitar — by installing the GK-
2A — connect your equipment as shown in the following
diagram.
* To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other
devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power
on all devices before making any connections.

Turning the Power On and Off
Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to
your various devices in the order specified. By turning on
devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction
and/or damage to speakers and other devices.

* When the power is turned on, the last-selected patch number
or Manual mode (p. 24) will be selected.
* When this device is in operation, the cooling fins located on the
rear panel will become hot. Take care not to touch them with
your hands.
* This unit is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief interval
after power up is required before the unit will operate normally.
* Turn the volume down before you turn the power on or off.
Even if the volume is turned down, some extraneous sound
may be heard when turning the power on/off, but this is not a
malfunction.
