ALWAYS OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING

WARNING

• Do not open (or modify in any way) the unit or its AC adaptor.

• Do not attempt to repair the unit, or replace parts within it (except when this manual provides specific instructions directing you to do so). Refer all servicing to your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the "Information" sheet.

• Never use or store the unit in places that are:

• Subject to temperature extremes (e.g., direct sunlight in an enclosed vehicle, near a heating duct, on top of heat-generating equipment); or are

• Damp (e.g., baths, washrooms, on wet floors); or are
• Humid; or are
• Exposed to rain; or are
• Dusty; or are

• Subject to high levels of vibration.

• Make sure you always have the unit placed so it is level and sure to remain stable. Never place it on stands that could wobble, or on inclined surfaces.

• Be sure to use only the AC adaptor supplied with the unit. Also, make sure the line voltage at the installation matches the input voltage specified on the AC adaptor's body. Other AC adaptors may use a different polarity, or be designed for a different voltage, so their use could result in damage, malfunction, or electric shock.

WARNING

• Use only the attached power-supply cord. Also, the supplied power cord must not be used with any other device.

• Do not excessively twist or bend the power cord, nor place heavy objects on it. Doing so can damage the cord, producing severed elements and short circuits. Damaged cords are fire and shock hazards!

• This unit, either alone or in combination with an amplifier and headphones or speakers, may be capable of producing sound levels that could cause permanent hearing loss. Do not operate for a long period of time at a high volume level, or at a level that is uncomfortable. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should immediately stop using the unit, and consult an audiologist.

• Do not allow any objects (e.g., flammable material, coins, pins); or liquids of any kind (water, soft drinks, etc.) to penetrate the unit.

WARNING

• Immediately turn the power off, remove the AC adaptor from the outlet, and request servicing by your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the "Information" page when:

• The AC adaptor, the power-supply cord, or the plug has been damaged; or
• If smoke or unusual odor occurs
• Objects have fallen into, or liquid has been spilled onto the unit; or
• The unit has been exposed to rain (or otherwise has become wet); or

• The unit does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance.

• In households with small children, an adult should provide supervision until the child is capable of following all the rules essential for the safe operation of the unit.

• Protect the unit from strong impact. (Do not drop it!)

• Do not force the unit's power-supply cord to share an outlet with an unreasonable number of other devices. Be especially careful when using extension cords—the total power used by all devices you have connected to the extension cord's outlet must never exceed the power rating (watts/amperes) for the extension cord. Excessive loads can cause the insulation on the cord to heat up and eventually melt through.

• Before using the unit in a foreign country, consult with your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the "Information" sheet.

CAUTION

• The unit and the AC adaptor should be located so their location or position does not interfere with their proper ventilation.

• Always grasp only the plug on the AC adaptor cord when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet or this unit.

• At regular intervals, you should unplug the AC adaptor and clean it by using a dry cloth to wipe all dust and other accumulations away from its prongs. Also, disconnect the power plug from the power outlet whenever the unit is to remain unused for an extended period of time. Any accumulation of dust between the power plug and the power outlet can result in poor insulation and lead to fire.

• Try to prevent cords and cables from becoming entangled. Also, all cords and cables should be placed so they are out of the reach of children.

• Never climb on top of, nor place heavy objects on the unit.

• Never handle the AC adaptor or its plugs with wet hands when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet or this unit.

• Before moving the unit, disconnect the AC adaptor and all cords coming from external devices.

• Before cleaning the unit, turn off the power and unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet (p. 27).

• Whenever you suspect the possibility of lightning in your area, disconnect the AC adaptor from the outlet.

• Should you remove the screw and the USB connector cap, keep them in a safe place out of children's reach, so there is no chance of them being swallowed accidentally.

Power Supply

• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise filter between this unit and the electrical outlet.
• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause for concern.
• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/or damage to speakers or other devices.

Placement

• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away from the source of interference.
• This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.
• Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch them off.
• When moved from one location to another where the temperature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has completely evaporated.
• Depending on the material and temperature of the surface on which you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor or mar the surface. You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the rubber feet to prevent this from happening. If you do so, please make sure that the unit will not slip or move accidentally.

Maintenance

• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.

Repairs and Data

• Please be aware that all data contained in the unit's memory may be lost when the unit is sent for repairs. Important data should always be backed up on a another MIDI device (e.g., a sequencer), or written down on paper (when possible). During repairs, due care is taken to avoid the loss of data. However, in certain cases (such as when circuitry related to memory itself is out of order), we regret that it may not be possible to restore the data, and Roland assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.

Additional Precautions

• Please be aware that the contents of memory can be irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against the risk of loosing important data, we recommend that you periodically save a backup copy of important data you have stored in the unit's memory in another MIDI device (e.g., a sequencer).
• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of data that was stored in another MIDI device (e.g., a sequencer). once it has been lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit's buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable's internal elements.
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit's volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about those around you (especially when it is late at night).

• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box (including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.

• Use only the specified expression pedal (Roland EV-5, BOSS FV-500L/500H with a connection cable (stereo 1/4'' phone - stereo 1/4'' phone); sold separately). By connecting any other expression pedals, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.

• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level to be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For information on cable specifications, contact the manufacturer of the cable.

Multi-Effects Processor Designed for Bass, Packed with the Latest Technologies

The GT-10B's original high-performance processors put BOSS's wealth of bass expertise in a single package.

BOSS COSM effects have been precision-tuned to fully express all of the subtle fingering nuances that are characteristic of the bass. It can truly be said that this is the definitive bass multi-effects processor.

Create Tones Intuitively with EZ TONE

The EZ TONE provides an innovative user interface that enables you to create your own tones with absolutely no special knowledge of effect parameters needed.

Sound making on the EZ TONE is truly intuitive. EZ TONE shows you the way to create the sound with both graphical icons and intuitive terms such as "SOFT" or "HARD." Choose the basic sound you want according to the music genre, song imagery, performance-style. Then you can shape the sound by just moving the cursor on the TONE GRID toward "SOFT" or "HARD."

Now everyone can easily create his or her own tones the instant a sonic image comes to mind.

Phrase Loop Feature

The Phrase Loop feature lets you record and play loop performances, whereby you continue adding new sounds as the loop plays.

The unit provides up to 38 seconds of recording time, which lets you switch effects as you continue to layer additional bass lines.

You can also take phrases recorded beforehand without effects and then apply the perfect tone, adding the effects as you play back the phrase.

A Wide Variety of Tones with Parallel Chain

The GT-10B includes a "Parallel Chain" function that allows you to split the "chain"—the signal path—into two independent chains, with full freedom to arrange effects in each chain in any order you want.

This feature also enables you to change the relative balance of sounds from the two chains according to volume or pitch, and provides you with even greater precision in creating tones.

Works Like a Compact Effects Processor

Operating the GT-10B is like using compact effects processors. It's easy to make super-fast tone adjustments, even in the middle of live performances. Just select an effect type, then directly adjust the four optimal parameters with the front-panel knobs. Of course, you can also switch the display to show all effect parameters to create tones with even more exacting detail.

Equipped with XLR Balanced Output Jacks

The GT-10B features two XLR type output jacks, enabling you to connect to PAs and recording decks.

High-Visibility Indicators

Foot pedal indicators and other lights all utilize brightly lit LEDs. Clearly visible in any situation, whether it be in a live outdoor concert or up on a pitch-black stage, these indicators help ensure accurate operation.

Editing

Basic Operation

This describes the basic operations you use when editing settings.

Creating Sounds Based on Existing Patches

Let's try creating a new sound based on a patch whose sound is close to what you want to make.

Adjusting Effect Parameters

1. Switch on the effect you want to adjust.

2. Adjust the parameters for the effect.

For more information about each parameter, refer to "Chapter 8 Parameters Guide" (p. 100).

1. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until you obtain the sound you want.

NOTE

If you switch patches, all settings that have been made will be lost. To save the sound you've created, carry out the Write procedure (p. 43).

Creating Sounds with Ease (EZ TONE)

Using the EZ Tone feature (p. 33) lets you quickly find settings close to the musical genre and feel of the song you want to create, and enables you to create the sound easily. Let's try creating sounds using EZ Tone.

Choose the Basic Tone

Use the basic tones and variations to choose the musical genre and the feel of the song.

For more information about each parameter, refer to "STEP1: TONE" (p. 134).

Buttons and Knobs You Use

This starts the EZ Tone feature.

These set the parameter values.

Adjust the Distortion/Compression

Using Tone Grid, adjust the distortion or compression until you get the sound you want.

NOTE

If you switch patches, you'll lose all the settings you've made. To save the sound you've created, carry out the Write procedure (p. 43).

TIP

You can take parameters you've adjusted with EZ TONE CREATE and fine-tune them further using EZ TONE EDIT or parameter operations. For more information, refer to "Adjusting the Tone (Edit)" (p. 33).

Making the Connections

Connecting Directly to a Recording Mixer or PA Mixer (XLR Balanced Output)

The GT-10B features balanced outputs that utilize SUB OUTPUT jacks (XLR connectors). Although direct boxes are generally used to connect bass (effects processor) outputs to mixers in concert halls and recording studios, you can connect the GT-10B directly to the mixer, which lets you avoid degradations in the sound quality, as well as any additional problems that might occur as the result of connecting multiple devices.

MEMO

• The SUB OUTPUT level cannot be adjusted with the OUTPUT LEVEL knob.
• The OUTPUT SELECT function (p. 26) affects sounds from the OUTPUT jacks. The output from the SUB OUTPUT jacks will always be equivalent to the sound that is output when the LINE/PHONES setting is used.

NOTE

• 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.
• Raise the amp volume only after turning on the power to all connected devices.
• When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the INPUT jack may be low. If this happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors.
• When outputting in mono, connect the cable to the OUTPUT L/MONO jack.
• Use only the specified expression pedal (Roland EV-5 or BOSS FV-500L; sold separately). By connecting any other expression pedals, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.
• Depending on the circumstances of a particular setup, you may experience a discomforting sensation, or perceive that the surface feels brittle to the touch when you touch this device, microphones connected to it, or the metal portions of other objects, such as basses. This is due to an infinitesimal electrical charge, which is absolutely harmless. However, if you are concerned about this, connect the ground terminal (see figure) with an external ground. When the unit is grounded, a slight hum may occur, depending on the particulars of your installation. If you are unsure of the connection method, contact the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the "Information" page. Unsuitable places for connection

Water pipes (may result in shock or electrocution)
Gas pipes (may result in fire or explosion)
- Telephone-line ground or lightning rod (may be dangerous in the event of lightning)

• Place the AC adaptor so the side with the indicator (see illustration) faces upwards and the side with textual information faces downwards. The indicator will light when you plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.

MEMO

• To prevent the inadvertent disruption of power to your unit (should the plug be pulled out accidentally), and to avoid applying undue stress to the AC adaptor jack, anchor the power cord using the cord hook, as shown in the illustration.

• This instrument is equipped with balanced (XLR) type connectors. Wiring diagrams for these connectors are shown below. Make connections after first checking the wiring diagrams of other equipment you intend to connect.

• When connecting an expression pedal to the EXP PEDAL2/CTL 3,4 jack, set the minimum volume for the connected expression pedal to the "MIN" position.
• When connecting a BOSS FS-6 footswitch (optional) to the EXP PEDAL 2/CTL 3,4 jack, set the MODE switch and POLARITY switch as shown below.

• When connecting a BOSS FS-5U footswitch (optional) to the EXP PEDAL 2/CTL 3,4 jack, set the POLARITY switch as shown below.

• You can use the special (optional Roland) PCS-31 connector cord to connect two footswitches.
• When a BOSS FS-6 footswitch (optional) is connected to the CTL3,4 jack with an optional connection cable (stereo 1/4'' phone - stereo 1/4'' phone), pedal switch B operates according to the CONTROL 3 settings, and pedal switch A operates according to the CONTROL 4 settings.

cf.

• When using the unit with an expression pedal or a footswitch (the optional FS-6 or FS-5U) connected to the EXP PEDAL 2/CTL 3,4 jack, make the settings given on "Using Pedals to Control the Parameters" (p. 48).
• For more on using the AMP CONTROL jack, refer to "AMP CONTROL" (p. 132).

Turning on the Power

Before turning on the power, confirm the following.

• Are all external devices properly connected?
• Is the volume on the GT-10B, your amp, and all other connected devices turned down to the minimum level?

NOTE

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.

1. Turn on the power to any external effects processors the bass amp (power amp).

MEMO

• Upon power-up, the patch most recently selected when the power was last turned off is selected.
• This unit is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief interval (a few seconds) after power up is required before the unit will operate normally.
• The explanations in this manual include illustrations that depict what should typically be shown by the display. Note, however, that your unit may incorporate a newer, enhanced version of the system (e.g., includes newer sounds), so what you actually see in the display may not always match what appears in the manual.

What is a Patch?

A combination (or set) of effects together with a group of parameter settings is called a "patch."

The GT-10B can store 400 different patches in memory, organized by bank and number as shown below.

User Banks (U01-U50)

Newly created effects settings are saved in the User banks. Patches in these banks are called "User patches."

A "U" appears in the display when a User patch is selected.

Preset Banks (P01-P50)

The Preset banks contain effect settings that make full use of the features the GT-10B has to offer. The patches in these banks are called "Preset patches." When you change the settings of a Preset patch, save the result as a User patch. Preset patches cannot be overwritten.

A "P" appears in the display when a Preset patch is selected.

Using the Pedal to Select the Patch

Patches are switched by selecting a "bank" (U01-U50, P01-P50) and "number" (1-4). The bank and number appear in the GT-10B's display as shown in the following figure.

Parameters That Can Be Set in ListView

The following describes the parameters that can be set when you switch to ListView in the ASSIGN screen.

MEMO

Pressing [DISPLAY MODE] toggles the display between Knob View and List View.

• The screen that's shown uses ASSIGN No. 1 as an example.

Parameter	Explanation
Target	Use to select the parameter you want to control.
Min	This sets the minimum value for the target's controllable range.
Max	This sets the maximum value for the target's controllable range.

Parameter	Explanation
Source	This selects the controller assigned to the function.
Src Mode	Moment	The normal state is Off (minimum value), with the switch On (maximum value) only while the footswitch is depressed.
	Toggle	The setting is toggled On (maximum value) or Off (minimum value) with each press of the footswitch.
ActRngLo	This sets the minimum for the range in which the value of the setting can be changed.
ActRngHi	This sets the maximum for the range in which the value of the setting can be changed.

cf.

For more information about each parameter, refer to "ASSIGN 1-8" (p. 126).

About the Range of a Target's Change

The value of the parameter selected as the target changes within the range defined by "Min" and "Max," as set on the GT-10B. When using an external footswitch, or other controller that acts as an on/off switch, "Min" is selected with Off (CLOSED), and "Max" is selected with On (OPEN).

When using an external expression pedal or other controller that generates a consecutive change in the value, the value of the setting changes accordingly, within the range set by the minimum and maximum values. Also, when the target is of an on/off type, the median value of the received data is used as the dividing line in determining whether to switch it on or off.

When using the footswitch:

When using the EXP Pedal:

When controlling the On/Off target with the EXP Pedal:

• The range that can be selected changes according to the target setting.
• When the "minimum" is set to a higher value than the "maximum," the change in the parameter is reversed.
• The values of settings can change if the target is changed after the "minimum" and "maximum" settings have been made. If you've changed the target, be sure to recheck the "minimum" and "maximum" settings.

About the Range of a Controller's Change

This sets the operational range within which the value of the setting changes when an EXP Pedal or other controller that changes the value consecutively is used as the source. If the controller is moved outside the operational range, the value does not change, it stops at "minimum" or "maximum."

(Example) With ActRngLo: 40, ActRngHi: 80

• When using a footswitch or other on/off switching controller as the source, leave these at "ActRngLo: 0" and "ActRngHi: 127." With certain settings, the value may not change.

TIP

Example of Assign Settings

Setting the parameters as shown below enables you to use the GT-10B's EXP Pedal as a UNI-V Rate parameter.

Target:	FX1:UV:Rate	Src Mode:	Moment
Min:	0	ActRngLo:	0
Max:	100	ActRngHi:	127
Source:	EXP1 PEDAL

Activating the Virtual Expression Pedal at the Start of Operations (Internal Pedal System)

The GT-10B features a function called Internal Pedal system. This function assigns specified parameters to a virtual expression pedal (the internal pedal), providing an effect that automatically changes volume and tone in real time just the way an expression pedal functions.

The Internal Pedal system features the following three functions, allowing you to set Source for each ASSIGN No.1-8 of the "Manual Settings" (p. 52).

• When the Internal Pedal or the Wave Pedal is used, set the ASSIGN Src Mode to Moment.

Internal Pedal

With the trigger you have set, the assumed expression pedal starts working. If you have set INTERNAL PDL to Source, set the Int Trig parameter.

cf.

For more detailed information on the parameters that can be set using Internal Pedal, refer to "Int Trig (Internal Pedal Trigger)" (p. 126), "Int Time (Internal Pedal Time)" (p. 126), and "IntCurve (Internal Pedal Curve)" (p. 126).

Wave Pedal

This changes the parameter selected as a target in a certain cycle with the assumed expression pedal. When you have set Wave Pedal for Source, the WaveRate and Waveform should be set.

cf.

For more detailed information on the parameters that can be set using Wave Pedal, refer to "WaveRate (Wave Pedal Rate)" (p. 126) and "Waveform (Wave Pedal Form)" (p. 126).

Input Level

The parameter set as the target changes in response to the input level.

MEMO

If you want to adjust the input sensitivity, set the "INPUT SENS" (p. 127).

Turning the Effects On and Off with the BANK/Number Pedals (Manual Mode)

The GT-10B features a Manual mode, in which the pedals are used for switching specified effects on and off.

In Manual mode, you can switch effects on and off without changing the patch number.

Phrase Loop Play

What's Phrase Loop?

In this mode, you can record up to 38 seconds of material (recorded in mono) and repeatedly play material as a "phrase loop." As the loop plays, you can overdub new material if desired.

You can record a phrase loop with effects, or you can add effects after a loop has been recorded. Adding effects after-the-fact lets you create special effects with recorded performances. It's also a great way to audition tones, as you can adjust effect parameters in real time while a phrase plays back.

NOTE

Recorded phrases are deleted when Phrase Loop is switched off or when the power is turned off.

Using the Phrase Loop

Recording a Phrase (REC)

1. Press [BANK▼] and [BANK▲] at the same time.	The unit goes into recording standby (The REC/DUB in- indicator flashes).	The maximum recording time for monaural recording is approximately 38 seconds. When the recording time reaches 38 seconds, playback of the recorded performance starts automatically.
2.	Recording starts. (The REC/DUB indicator lights up.) Play the phrase you want to record.

Chapter 6 Using the GT-10B with External MIDI Devices Connected

What Can You Do with MIDI?

You can perform the following operations using MIDI with the GT-10B.

MEMO

The use of MIDI requires that the MIDI channels of the connected devices match. If the MIDI channel settings are not correct, the GT-10B will be unable to exchange data with other MIDI devices.

Operating From the GT-10B

Outputting Program Change Messages

When a patch is selected on the GT-10B, a Program Change message corresponding to the patch number is transmitted simultaneously. The external MIDI device then switches its settings according to the Program Change message it receives.

Outputting Control Change Messages

Data describing the actions of the CTL pedal, EXP Pedal, EXP PEDAL SW, and external devices connected to the EXP PEDAL 2/CTL 3, 4 jack are output as Control Change messages. Such messages can be used to (among other things) manipulate the parameters of an external MIDI device.

Transmitting Data

You can use Exclusive messages to transmit the settings for effect sounds and other content stored in the GT-10B to other MIDI devices. For example, you can provide another GT-10B with the same settings, and save effect sound settings to a sequencer or other device.

Remotely Controlling the GT-10B Using an External MIDI Device

Switching Patch Numbers

When the GT-10B receives Program Change messages from the external MIDI device, its patches are simultaneously switched.

MEMO

You can set up the correspondence between MIDI Program Change messages and the GT-10B's patches using the Program Change Map (p. 88). You may need to work on these correspondences when you want to line up some effects in combination with other MIDI devices.

The connections shown in the figure below are for a sequencer automatically performing the backing as a bass is being played. The patches are switched automatically when the program numbers corresponding to the patches are input along with the performance data at the points where you have determined the GT-10B patches are to be switched.

Receiving Control Change Messages

MEMO

You can control specified parameters during a performance by having the GT-10B receive Control Change messages. Parameters to be controlled are set with "Manual Settings" (p. 52).

Receiving Data

The GT-10B can receive data transmitted from another GT-10B, as well as data that's been stored on a sequencer.

Exchanging MIDI Messages between the Computer and the GT-10B

If the Driver Mode parameter set to the Advanced (p. 95), and you connect the GT-10B to your PC/Mac by a USB cable, you can transfer MIDI message bidirectionally via USB.

Set your computer MIDI input and output ports to "GT-10B."

However, MIDI message transfer via GT-10B's MIDI connectors become inactivated in this situation.

Chapter 7 Using the GT-10B Connected to a Computer Via USB

With the GT-10B, you can use USB to transmit both digital audio signals between the GT-10B and your computer.

Before Connecting with USB

Installing and Setting the USB Driver

Just by connecting the GT-10B to your PC/Mac with a USB cable, audio signal can be transferred bidirectionally via USB.

When the Driver Mode parameter (p. 95) set to the Standard, your PC/Mac uses a standard driver that is found on OS. The driver will be installed automatically once connected with your computer via USB.

The GT-10B supports the following compatible OS:

Windows XP/Vista
Mac OS X 10.4.3 or later

When the Driver Mode parameter (p. 95) set to the Advanced and use specialized driver, you can record, play back, and edit audio with high-quality sound and stable timing.

It also allows you to control the GT-10B using MIDI messages via USB.

You can download the special GT-10B driver from the Roland local website.

Install the special GT-10B driver before you connect the GT-10B to your PC/Mac.

The program and procedures for installing the driver vary according to the operating environment; carefully read the Readme included in the downloaded file.

What is a USB Driver?

A USB driver is software that acts as a go-between in transferring data between computer applications (such as recording software and sequencer software) and the USB device when the computer and USB device are connected using a USB cable. The USB driver transmits data from the applications to the USB device, and conversely, passes messages from the USB device to the applications.

Computer

GT-10B

Exchanging MIDI Messages between the Computer and the GT-10B

SEND/RETURN

MONO

This allows you to connect an external effects device to the SEND and RETURN jacks and use it as part of the GT-10B's effects.

Parameter/Range	Explanation
SEND/RETURN ON/OFF
Off, On	Switches the SEND/RETURN on/off. Pressing [MASTER/PEDAL FX] switches On and Off.
Mode
Switches the SEND/RETURN mode.
Normal	Outputs the input to SEND/RETURN to the SEND jack and the input from the RE-TURN jack to the circuit post-SEND/RE-TURN. Use this when you want to connect an external effects device serially in the GT-10B's effects chain.
	SEND RETURN
Direct Mix	Outputs the input to SEND/RETURN to the SEND jack, mixes the input from the RETURN jack with the input to SEND/RETURN (the direct sound), then outputs this to the circuit post-SEND/RETURN. Use this when you want to mix the GT-10B's effects sounds together with the sound with the external effects device applied to it.
	SEND RETURN
Branch Out	Outputs the input to SEND/RETURN to the SEND jack. The input from the RE-TURN jack is disregarded. For example, using this with the GT-10B's reverb and delay immediately ahead of the SEND/RETURN allows you to use the SEND jack as a direct out.
	SEND
Send Lev (Send Level)
0-200	Adjusts the volume of the output to the external effects device.
ReturnLev (Return Level)
0-200	Adjusts the volume of the input from the external effects device.

AMP CONTROL

By connecting your bass amp's channel switching jack to the GT-10B's AMP CONTROL jack, you can then use Amp Control to switch the amp channel.

This combining of the GT-10B and the amp channels allows you to get an even wider variety of distortion sounds.

Since the Amp Control setting is handled as one of the effects parameters saved to each individual patch, it allows you to switch bass amp channels with each patch.

Parameter/Range	Explanation
Amp Control
Off	Closed Bass Amp (Amp's channel switching jack) GT-10B (AMP CONTROL jack)
On	Open Bass Amp (Amp's channel switching jack) GT-10B (AMP CONTROL jack)

MEMO

• To determine how the amp channels are switched when the circuit is open and closed, refer to the amp owner's manual, or actually confirm the sounds by operating the amp.
• Note that, depending on the circuitry of the channel switching jack in the bass amp used, the Amp Control function may not operate.
• With Amp Control, not only can you switch amp channels, you can also use it to switch the amp's effects on and off, like a footswitch controller.
• You can also switch this parameter using [MASTER/PEDAL FX] in the AMP CONTROL screen.

NS1/NS2 (Noise Suppressor)

STEREO

This effect reduces the noise and hum picked up by bass pickups. Since it suppresses the noise in synchronization with the envelope of the bass sound (the way in which the bass sound decays over time), it has very little effect on the bass sound, and does not harm the natural character of the sound.

TIP

Please connect the noise suppressor in the signal path prior to the reverberation type effect. This setup will prevent unnatural break of the reverberation type effect.

Parameter/Range	Explanation
NS1, NS2 ON/OFF (Noise Suppressor ON/OFF)
Off, On	Switches the noise suppressor effect on/off. Pressing [MASTER/PEDAL FX] switches On and Off.
Threshold
0-100	Adjust this parameter as appropriate for the volume of the noise. If the noise level is high, a higher setting is appropriate. If the noise level is low, a lower setting is appropriate. Adjust this value until the decay of the bass sound is as natural as possible. MEMO High settings for the threshold parameter may result in there being no sound when you play with your bass volume turned down.
Release
0-100	Adjusts the time from when the noise suppressor begins to function until the noise level reaches “0.”
Detect
This controls the noise suppressor based on the volume level for the point specified in Detect.
Input	Input volume from input jack.
NS Input	Noise suppressor input volume.
FV Out (Foot Volume Output)	Volume after passing through Foot Volume.

CH.SELECT (Channel Select)

Dynamic SW	Channels A and B are switched according to the bass input volume level.The GT-10B switches to Channel B when the strings are picked with greater force.This produces dynamic tonal changes in response to the picking dynamics.A B DetectInput Level
Dynamic A	Channel A's volume level is controlled according to the bass input volume level.The volume in Channel B is fixed.
Dynamic B	Channel B's volume level is controlled according to the bass input volume level.The volume in Channel A is fixed.
Ch.Select (Channel Select)
Ch.A, Ch.B	These switch between the A and B chan-nels for the effect.
Ch.A Lev/Ch.B Lev (Channel A Level/Channel B Level)
0-100	Adjusts the volume of the each channels.
Xover f (Crossover Frequency)*1
100Hz-4.00kHz	This sets the frequency dividing the low- and high-frequency ranges.

Sens (Sensitivity) *2
0-100	When the Ch.Mode parameter is set to Dynamic Sw, raising the value allows switching of the channels even with weaker picking. When the Ch.Mode parameter is set to Dynamic A (or Dynamic B), raising the value enables volume level changes in Channel A (or Channel B) even with weaker picking.
Release *2
0-100	This adjust the rate of the response when the input level drops.

1 This setting value is enabled when the Ch.Mode parameter is set to Freq Divide.
2 This setting value is enabled when the Ch.Mode parameter is set to Dynamic Sw, Dynamic A, or Dynamic B.

PLAY OPTION

Parameter/Range	Explanation
Preamp Mode
Patch	The patch preamp setting is used. This allows you to use different preamp settings in each individual patch.
System1-3	The system's preamp setting is used. This applies the same preamp settings to all patches. MEMO Pressing EZ TONE [CREATE] automatically switches Preamp Mode to Patch.
Patch ChgMode (Patch Change Mode)
This setting determines whether or not the decay of reverb, delay, and similar effects continue when patches are switched on the GT-10B.
Fast	Patches are changed normally. The unit switches to the subsequent patch without any carry-over of the decay from the previous patch's reverb or delay.
Smooth	The unit switches to the subsequent patch with the decay from the previous patch's reverb or delay continued after the switch is made. MEMO To ensure smooth switching, the patches may be switched with a delay of one tempo beat.
Bank Chg Mode
This sets the timing with which the GT-10B switches to the next patch when switching banks with the pedals.
Wait	Although the indication in the display is updated to reflect the change in the bank when a BANK pedal is pressed, the patch will not change until a number pedal has been pressed.
Immed	The patch switches instantly when a BANK pedal or any of the number pedals is pressed.
BankExtentMin (Bank Extent Minimum)
P01-P50, U01-U50	Sets the lower limit for the banks.
BankExtentMax (Bank Extent Maximum)
P01-P50, U01-U50	Sets the upper limit for the banks.
EXP Pdl Hold (Expression Pedal Hold)
This setting determines whether or not the Assign's (p. 51) operational status is carried over to the next patch when patches are switched.
Off	The Assign's operational status is not carried over. (Example) If a patch is switched while the volume is being controlled with an EXP Pedal, the volume of the subsequent patch is set to the value set in that patch. If the EXP Pedal is operated, the volume will change in accord with the pedal's movement.
On	The Assign's operational status is carried over. (Example) If a patch is switched while the volume is being controlled with the EXP Pedal, the volume of the subsequent patch will take on the value determined by the current pedal position (angle). If the patch switched to has the EXP Pedal controlling the wah effect, then the volume assumes the value set in the patch, and the patch's wah effect is given the value derived from the current pedal position (angle).
Pdl Indicate (Pedal Indicate)
You can have all unlit pedal indicators flash faintly instead.
Off	The Pedal Indicate function is not use.
On	All unlit pedal indicators flash.
Num Pdl Sw (Number Pedal Switch)
This allows you to call up various features by pressing the pedals with the same numbers as the currently selected patches.
Off	This function is not operational.
Tuner	Switches the Tuner on and off.
Ch. A/B	Switches between effect channel A and B.
Dial Func (Dial Function)
This setting determines whether or not rotating the dial switches the patches.
Pat&Val	The dial is used both for switching patches and changing the value of settings. In addition to switching patches with the pedals, you can also switch them by rotating the dial.
Value	The dial is used only for changing the values of settings.

MIDI

Parameter/Range	Explanation
Rx Channel (Receive Channel)
1-16ch	This sets the MIDI channel used for receiving MIDI messages.
Omni Mode
Omni Off, Omni On	When set to “Omni On,” messages are received on all channels, regardless of the MIDI channel settings.
Tx Channel (Transmit Channel)
1-16ch, Rx	This sets the MIDI Transmit channel used for transmitting MIDI messages. When set to “Rx,” this MIDI channel is same as the Rx Channel parameter (Receive channel).
Device ID
1-32	This sets the Device ID used for transmitting and receiving Exclusive messages.
Sync Clock
This setting determines the basis used for synchronizing the timing for effect modulation rates and other time-based parameters. MEMO · When you have an external MIDI device connected, the Master BPM is then synchronized to the external MIDI device's tempo, thus disabling the Master BPM setting. To enable setting of the Master BPM, set to “Internal.” · When synchronizing performances to the MIDI Clock signal from an external MIDI device, timing problems in the performance may occur due to errors in the MIDI Clock.
Auto	When the MIDI Clock of the external MIDI device is not being received, the performance is synchronized to the tempo set in MASTER BPM; when the external MIDI device's MIDI Clock is being received from the USB or MIDI IN connector, the performance is synchronized to that.
Internal	The performance is synchronized to the tempo set in MASTER BPM.
PC Out (Program Change Out)
This setting determines whether or not Program Change messages are output when patches are switched on the GT-10B.
Off	Program Change messages are not output, even when patches are switched.
On	Program Change messages are simultaneously output when patches are switched.
EXP1/EXP Sw/CTL1/CTL2/EXP2/CTL3/CTL4 Out(Transmit Control Change)
This sets the controller number when the controller operation data is output as Control Change messages.
Off, CC#1-CC#31, CC#64-CC#95	Selects the controller.
Map Select
This setting determines whether patches are switched according to the Program Change Map settings, or to the default settings.
Fix	Switches to the patches according to the default settings.
Prog	Switches to the patches according to the Program Change Map.
PROGRAM MAP
When switching patches using Program Change messages transmitted by an external MIDI device, you can freely set the correspondence between Program Change messages received by the GT-10B and the patches to be switched to in the “PROGRAM MAP.”
Bank 0-3 /PC#1-PC#128	This sets the patch number (U01-1 through P50-4) for the corresponding Program Change number.
BULK DUMP
On the GT-10B, you can use Exclusive messages to provide another GT-10B with identical settings, and save effect settings on a MIDI sequencer or other device.

Troubleshooting

If there is no sound or other operational problems occur, first check through the following solutions. If this does not resolve the problem, then consult your Roland dealer or contact Roland Service Center.

Problems with the sound

No sound / volume too low

Are the connection cables broken?
Try using a different set of connection cables.
Is the GT-10B correctly connected to the other devices?
Check connections with the other devices (p. 22).
Is the connected amp/mixer turned off, or the volume lowered?
Check the settings of your amp/mixer system.
Is the OUTPUT LEVEL knobs lowered?
Adjust the OUTPUT LEVEL knobs to an appropriate position (p. 25).
Is Tuner set to On?
When the volume is set to "Mute" in the Tuner mode, even the direct sound will not be output by setting the Tuner to "On" (p. 29).
Is each effect set correctly?
Use the "Changing the Connection Order of Effects (Effect Chain)" (p. 37) to check the output level of each effect. If there is an effect for which the meter does not move, check the settings for that effect.
Is "USB/DGT Out Lev" set to a low value?
Adjust the setting to an appropriate value (p. 135).
Is "PEDAL: FV: Level" or "MASTER: Patch Level" specified as an assign Target?
Move the controller to which it is assigned (p. 51).
Is the power to the external device connected to the EXT LOOP jack off, or is the volume of the device turned down?
Check the settings for the connected device.

Sound from devices connected to the INPUT jack is not heard in the headphones

Is the Dir.Monitor (p. 97) set to OFF?
Set to ON.

The volume level of the instrument connected to INPUT and RETURN are too low

Could you be using a connection cable that contains a resistor?
Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.

Oscillating sound occurs

Is the value for any gain- or volume-related effects parameter set too high?
Lower these values.
Is the INPUT SELECT (p. 63) set to "USB In?"
When set to "USB In," audio signals may, depending on the software settings, end up looping. You can use the following methods to prevent this from happening.

• Stop playback with the software, and set Soft Thru to Off.
• Switch the software's audio input off.
• Change INPUT SELECT to "Bass 1-3."

No change in preamp tone even after switching patches

Has the GT-10B been set to "System1-3" in Preamp mode (p. 73)?
When the GT-10B is set to "System1-3" in Preamp mode, the preamp settings do not change when patches are switched.

To make different preamp settings for individual patches, choose the "Patch" setting in Preamp mode.

Unable to change parameters with the knobs or dial

Are you using the Internal Pedal System (p. 55) in Assign?
When the Assign Source is set to "INTERNAL PDL", "WAVE PDL," or "INPUT LEVEL" the effect parameter set as the Assign Target changes automatically. If you want to be able to change the parameters manually with the knobs and dial, first switch off Assign to deactivate the Internal Pedal System.

Is "INPUT LEVEL" (p. 51) set as the Assign Source in Assign?
When "INPUT LEVEL" is set for the Assign Source, the effect parameter set as the Assign Target changes automatically according to the level of the input from the bass (the playing dynamics).

If you want to be able to change the parameters manually with the knobs and dial, first switch off Assign.

Other Problems

Patch does not change

Is something other than the Play screen shown in the display?
On the GT-10B, patches can be selected only when the Play screen is displayed. Press [EXIT] to return to the Play screen (p. 25).

Parameters specified with Assign can't be controlled

Could the effect be switched off?
To control a parameter using the EXP Pedal or footswitch, make sure the effect that contains the parameter you intend to control is switched on.
Is Prefernc ("preference") for Pedal Function set to the "System" setting?
Even when an assignment setting has been made for the patch, the setting made for Pedal Function (p. 48) takes precedence. To enable the setting made for the patch, for Pedal Function set the preference for the relevant controller to "Patch."
- Do the MIDI channel settings of both devices match?
Make sure that the MIDI channels of both devices match (p. 84).
- Do the controller number settings of both devices match?
Make sure that the controller number of both devices match (p. 126).
Could the expression pedal be out of adjustment?
Although the unit's expression pedal has been set for optimal operation at the factory, extended use and certain operating environments can result in the pedal going out of adjustment. Adjust the expression pedal (p. 81).

MIDI messages are not transmitted/received

Are the MIDI cables broken?
Try another set of MIDI cables.
Is the GT-10B correctly connected to the other MIDI device?
Check connections with the other MIDI device.
- Do the MIDI channel settings of both devices match?
Make sure that the MIDI channels of both devices match (p. 84).
- When you send messages from the GT-10B, make sure the GT-10B is set to the settings appropriate for sending data.
Check the on/off status for transmission of program change messages (p. 86) and the settings for the controller numbers to be transmitted (p. 86).
