Chapter 8 Using the GT-PRO Connected to the FC-200

Chapter 8

After connecting the FC-200, you will find it convenient to

change the settings without having to disconnect and

reconnect the MIDI cables.

Automatically Setting the FC-200 with the

Corresponding GT-PRO Settings When Turning

On the GT-PRO

You can have the FC-200 automatically programmed with

the corresponding GT-PRO settings by first switching the

GT-PRO’s FC-200 mode on and then turning on the power to

the GT-PRO.

1. First make sure the GT-PRO and FC-200 are connected

with MIDI cables as described in “Connecting” (p. 86).

2. Switch the FC-200’s POWER switch to the “ON” or

“ECONOMY” position to turn on the FC-200.

3. Turn on the power to the GT-PRO.

The FC-200 is automatically programmed with the

corresponding GT-PRO settings.

Manual Mode

When you switch on Manual mode from the GT-PRO’s

control panel, the FC-200 automatically switches to the

settings for Manual mode, without any manual setting of the

FC-200 necessary.

1. In the Play screen, press [SHIFT] so the indicator is lit,

then press PARAMETER [ ] to switch to Manual

mode.

The FC-200 automatically switches to the settings for

Manual mode.

* At this point, the FC-200 is set to Control Change mode.

2. To quit Manual mode, press [EXIT].

The FC-200 automatically returns to the original settings.

* The FC-200 is set to Program Change mode.

* You can also switch Manual mode off by pressing [SHIFT]

and then PARAMETER [ ].

You can use “CC#80 Function” (p. 64) or “Assign” (p. 66)

to switch Manual mode on and off with the FC-200‘s

CTL pedal.

Connecting an External MIDI Device

in FC-200 Mode

If, while controlling the GT-PRO with the FC-200, you also

want to run an additional MIDI device, connect the MIDI IN

connector on the other external MIDI device to the GT-PRO’s

MIDI THRU connector.

This way, MIDI messages from the FC-200 are transmitted to

the external MIDI device as well as the GT-PRO, enabling

you to control both the GT-PRO and the other external MIDI

device with the FC-200.

fig.08-0180

Control Change messages set for EXP1 OUT, CTL1 OUT,

CTL2 OUT, CTL3 OUT, and CTL4 OUT (p. **) are not

output from the MIDI THRU connector, even when the

external expression pedal or foot switch connected to the

GT-PRO is operated.

If you want to output Control Change messages when an

external expression pedal or foot switch is adjusted,

connect the pedal to the FC-200.
