BACKING SECTION
SONG MODE
Note: DISPLAY DIFFERENCES IN BACKING MODE AND EF-
FECT MODE—The recorded chords, patterns and mute
on/off status events at the current position are indi-
cated in the LCD display, when the Backing mode
display is selected (the cursor arrow appears in the
TEMPO, SONG, and PTN boxes in the display). When
the Effect mode display is selected (the cursor arrow
disappears), “MANUAL” or the current effect program
name is shown in the LCD instead of the pattern name
and current chord.
Note: VIEWING MULTIPLE EVENTS—When multiple
events have been recorded to the same position
in a song, each event appears briefly in the LCD,
one after the other. For example:
When four events (pattern, chord, effect pro-
gram number and effect on/off) have been en-
tered to the same position, the three following
indications will appear in succession in the LCD.
SONG EDIT MODE (SONG EDITING)
Note: ABOUT EFFECT EVENTS—Effect program
number and effect on/off events are indicated
in the LCD for the positions to which they were
recorded. However, the effect program number
shown in the BANK/MEMORY indicator LED and
the effect on/off status shown by the LEDs in
the effect blocks indicate the current state of
the Effect section of the GW50.
Let’s say, for example, that effect program
number 12 has been recorded at the start of a
song, and a change to program number 44 has
been recorded to the thirteenth 16th note of
the fourth measure (as shown below). When
you move the position indicator to the
thirteenth 16th note of the fourth measure, the
LCD shows “44,” but the BANK/MEMORY LED
shows “12.”
The two indications are different because the
Backing section is stopped and the event (#44)
has not been played yet.
If you move the position indicator one 16th
note step forward, the BANK/MEMORY LED will
change to “44” accordingly.
Also, consider that the current effect program
number may be changed via the Pedal Switches
or panel controls without the position indicator
being moved.
Therefore, there will always be a discrepancy
between the effect program number event data
displayed for the Backing section and the actual
effect program number currently active in the
Effect section. (All of the above applies to ef-
fect on/off events, as well.)
Simply put, the BANK/MEMORY indicator and
effect block LEDs indicate the current condition
of the Effect section; the LCD indicates the
events that have been recorded to the song in
the Backing section. These two are different.
