User manual ROLAND CS-3 ANNEXE 880

[. . . ] The manual should be saved and kept on hand as a convenient reference. Main Features The GI-20 is a multifunction GK-MIDI interface. It takes the signals from the individual strings of the guitar or bass equipped with a divided pickup, analyzes each string's pitch and volume, and outputs the information as MIDI data. You can combine the GI-20 with a MIDI sound module and use the setup as a guitar synthesizer, or connect it to a computer and use it as an input tool for sequencers or similar applications. Features internal patch memory, allowing you to store a variety of different settings. [. . . ] The USB driver setting becomes effective the next time you turn on the GI-20. 33 Chapter 4 Other Functions Reset to Default Factory Settings (Factory Reset) The procedure for restoring the GI-20's internal settings to the state they were in when the unit left the factory is called a "Factory Reset. " This procedure allows you to return the patch parameters for Patches 01­50, pickup sensitivity settings, MIDI transmission, and other system parameters to their original factory values. Here, you can set the GUITAR/BASS switch to select patch content that is optimized for the use of either a guitar or bass. * With the factory settings, this is set to patches that are optimized for the guitar. Screw (M4 x 8) Installing the Rack Mount Adaptor When installing on the rack-mount adaptor (RAD-50; optional), use the screw (M4 x 8) included with the rackmount adaptor. fig. 04-03 The Factory Reset operation undoes any settings you have changed and discards any edits you have made to its patches. If you have settings or patches you wish to preserve, use the Bulk Dump operation (p. 29) to save them, before performing the Factory Reset operation. Set GUITAR/BASS to match the instrument you are using (guitar or bass). Hold down [TUNER (STRING SEL)] and turn on the power. "in" appears in the display. fig. 04-01 Attaching the Rubber Feet If you are not going to be using a rack mount adaptor, attach the rubber feet as shown. fig. 04-04 Affix the supplied rubber feet onto the bottom of the unit Flash * To cancel the procedure, turn off the power to the GI-20. "Wr" appears in the display and the dot in the display flashes, and Factory Reset is carried out. fig. 04-02 Flash When Factory Reset is completed, "oF" flashes in the display. Never turn off the power while Factory Reset is in progress. Turn off the power to the GI-20. 34 Chapter 5 Appendices 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 contact your dealer or a nearby Roland service station. The volume fluctuates from one string to another Are the "SENSITIVITY" settings correct for each string? Is "BEND RANGE" (p. 23) Is the GUITAR/BASS switch on the rear panel set correctly? Switch to GUITAR if you are using a guitar; if using a bass, switch this to BASS. 10) Problems occur after switching GI-20 patches. For example, the connected sound module no longer produces sound, or the sound won't stop, or modulation is applied constantly and won't switch off. When patches are switched, no signal is transmitted to restore the Control Change value transmitted with the previous patch. Therefore, if the same assign settings are used for both of the patches prior to and following the switch, the status of the controllers is carried over. However, if the assign settings are different for the patch you are switching to, you cannot restore the value for the Control Change transmitted with the earlier patch. 20) The Note messages input to the sequencer don't look like the scale that is actually played To start playing sounds rapidly and achieve smooth changes in pitch, the GI-20 transmits pitch as a combination of Note messages and Pitch Bend messages. This means that if only the Note messages are examined on the sequencer's microscope (event list) screen, the on-screen information may differ from what is actually performed. If continuous pitch change is not required, you can create data that is displayed more faithfully by setting the BEND RANGE to "Chromatic Type 1­3. " (p. 23) 36 Chapter 5 Appendices Error Messages If you attempt an incorrect operation or if an operation could not be executed, the display will indicate an error message. Refer to this list and take the appropriate action. fig. 05-01 fig. 05-04 Reason Reception of bulk data in the Bulk Load screen was immediately followed by reception of subsequent bulk data, so the data received after by the GI-20 could not be processed. Switch the screen for a moment, then select the Bulk Load screen again and retransmit the bulk data. In case of transmitting the bulk data more than twice, please make sure that the previous data was firmly received and transmit another data. Reason The data transmitted from the GI-20's USB connector was not received by the connected computer, preventing the GI-20 from processing transmissions.
