Roland's PROGRESSIVE AMP technology gives a broader and richer guitar sound

This newly developed PROGRESSIVE AMP with COSM technology offers an original drive control, enabling continuous and smooth changes, not only for gain, but between the amp's characteristics as well. This feature allows a variety of rich sounds and is ideal for many different types of performance, from a good clear clean sound to a sticky crunch sound, and through to high-gain super extreme, and also allows comfortable playing with distortion.

Intuitive operation

The GA-212/GA-112 are equipped with four channels and you can set different tones for each channel. Each knob has an LED pointer that indicates the current setting. The LED pointer allows at-a-glance tone checking and quickly indicates any change of channel. The channel settings are automatically saved after every operation. The exclusive foot controller gives easy foot control of the GA (p. 8).

Equipped with simple operation of basic functions and expandability

In addition to 3-band EQ, presence and mid boost allow versatile sound creation. Exclusively-designed reverb gives great spatial effects. The unit is equipped with two independent effect loops and can be set for each channel. The unit has the basic functions needed for both live performance and recording. Link connection can also be easily made, allowing you to enjoy a performance with a more powerful sound.

What is COSM?

Composite Object Sound Modeling (COSM) is Roland's innovative and powerful sound modeling technology. COSM analyzes the many factors that make up the original sound, such as the electrical and physical characteristics of the original, and then produces a digital model that can reproduce the same sound.

AUTO OFF function

• The unit has an energy-saving AUTO OFF function; the unit is automatically turned off approximately 4 hours after last use.
• When shipped from the factory, the unit comes with the AUTO OFF function turned ON.
  • To override the energy-saving setting, set the [AUTO OFF] switch to OFF as described on p. 6.

About The Exclusive Foot Controller

"What type of stage amplifier do guitarists really want?" After much intensive research and development, GA is Roland's answer.

GA is an amp with easy intuitive operation and with a sound that resonates with the guitarist's inspiration.

By focusing on these key points, a "live amp" was born with a sound character that satisfies guitarists, simple operation and all the functions required for a great live performance.

In our search for a sound that moves the performer's heart, we experimented endlessly to get it just right. Our efforts have borne fruit and we believe Roland's unique amp delivers sound quality beyond tube and solid state amps.

It was also essential to ensure that operating the unit was simple and intuitive. All guitarists desire "to only concentrate on artistic performance, without being diverted by technical control." This amp is designed with simple and intuitive operation and is ideal for all guitarists.

GA is the next-generation stage guitar amp, born from Roland's years of technological experience and know-how.

Before using this unit, carefully read the sections entitled: "IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS" (inside front cover), "USING THE UNIT SAFELY" (p. 2), and "IMPORTANT NOTES" (p. 3). These sections provide important information concerning the proper operation of the unit. Additionally, in order to feel assured that you have gained a good grasp of every feature provided by your new unit, Owner's Manual should be read in its entirety. The manual should be saved and kept on hand as a convenient reference.

IMPORTANT NOTES

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 or a motor (such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner). 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.
  • To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always make sure to turn off the power on all your equipment before you make any connections.
• Although the LEDs are switched off when the unit is turned off, this does not mean that the unit has been completely disconnected from the source of power. If you need to turn off the power completely, first turn off the unit's switch, then unplug the power cord from the power outlet. For this reason, the outlet into which you choose to connect the power cord's plug should be one that is within easy reach and readily accessible.
• With the factory settings, the GA-212/GA-112 will automatically be switched off 4 hours after you stop playing or operating the unit. If you don't want the unit to turn off automatically, set the "AUTO OFF" switch to "OFF" as described on p. 6.

DRIVE value settings after changing channel

When an expression pedal is connected to the DRIVE jack, you can set the DRIVE value after changing channel to the current pedal value, not the value saved in the channel. To make the setting, see p. 10

* Use only the specified expression pedal (Roland EV-5, BOSS FV-500L, BOSS FV-500H; sold separately). By connecting any other expression pedals, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.

Making Unit Link Connections

Link connection can be made with another unit. Link connection allows you to obtain more sound pressure, and give a powerful performance on a large stage.

When the amps are connected as described below, channel change by the foot controller, and use of an expression pedal are possible with the connected amp.

Adjust the volume after making the connection. * When the guitar is connected to HIGH, connect to HIGH. When the guitar is connected to LOW, connect to LOW. * Lower the volume on all devices when turning the unit on or off. * Lower the volume on all devices when turning the unit on or off.

How to stack the amps

GA-212/112 can be used in a stacked configuration.

NOTE

Up to one unit can be stacked. Do not stack two or more units. When stacking, be sure to follow the instructions below.

* Be sure to set up and use these units in stable, level locations.
* To prevent injury caused by the unit overturning or being dropped, make sure that at least two persons work together when lifting and carrying the units.
* Be careful not to get your fingers pinched.

How to stack the amps

* When the amps are stacked, always align them so that the corners of the upper and lower amps are securely engaged. If the corners are not engaged, there is a risk of the units falling.
* Do not stack GA-212 and GA-112.
* If the units are to be stacked, always remove all casters from each amp.

Fitting and removal of casters (For GA-212 only)

The casters are not fitted to the unit when shipped from the factory. To fit or remove the casters, follow the diagram.
