INSTANT START Now that you are the happy owner of the CHARVEL GTM 6 we understand that you do not want to spend your time reading boring manuals, you would rather play the guitar synthesizer as soon as possible. Here we provide you with a short guide of how to do this, but after you have had some fun please return to this manual in or der to make full use of the extraordinary capabilities this unit offers. Later on you will find the programing card very useful.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION 1. SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT Optimal results of tracking speed and reliability can be obtained only if the indivi dual sting sensitivities are adjusted properly. The sensitivity of each string can be adjusted separately according to the type of strings used and the usual strength of your plucking, whether you play heavy me tal or soft jazz etc. Press PLAY/PROGRAM and turn the DYNAMICS potentiometer slightly in any di rection.
4. TRIGGER, QUANTIZE, BEND modes The GTM 6 can respond to the bending of a string in three different ways. None of these are better then the other, each of these is very useful in the correct musical application. In TRIGGER mode pitch bending does not follow smoothly, instead a new note is started as you reach the pitch of the neighbouring semitone. The result is as if a piano player was trying to imitate a guitarist.
5. CHANNEL, TRANSPOSE, TUNE When you press the PLAY/PROGRAM switch, PLAY turns off and PROGRAM turns on. The previous three switches will work now as CHANNEL, TRANSPOSE and TUNE. Any sounds coming from the synthesizer will be halted while you are in PROGRAM. In PROGRAM you can program the important parameters of the GtM 6. These parameters will remain intact even if you turn the unit off and they can only be erased by a cold start.
TRANSPOSE Any of the strings can be transposed any number of semitones within the limits of 3 octaves down and up. Press TRANSPOSE then define a string either by plucking it or pressing the number of the string. If you press 7 or 8 just very quickly the string number disappears and the presently stored transposition value of that string will be written on the display. Transposition value means the number of semitones, so one octave up is 12, and 36 is the maximum.
6. Program change and CHAIN programing The presents of the synthesizer can be changed from the numeric keypad of the GTM 6. To achieve this you have to take care for the following things: a./ The program change MIDI channel described above is the same as on the synthesizer. b./ Program change is engaged on the synthesizer. Check the manual how to do this: In order to get a program change you have to type two numbers successively, just like on KORG synthesizers.
CHAIN goes around, so from the last preset it jumps back to the first one. When you turn the GTM 6 on, CHAIN will start always from the first preprogrammed preset. The result of a cold start is that CHAIN will go through the presets from 11 to 48. There is a more advanced way to use the CHAIN pedal. If you have three synthesi zers assigned to different MIDI channels, one for playing the guitar, one for the SE QUENCER, and one for the HOLD, you can also assign up to three preset chains to them.
8. SEQUENCER Cartainly any MIDI sequencer can be connected to the GTM 6 just as if it were a MIDI keyboard itself. In spite of this the GTM 6 contains an internal sequencer which is rather unusual in that it is optimized for live performance. If you press SEQUENCER then REC and PLAY leds will start flashing. This indica tes that the sequencer is waiting for a start command.

STEVE TANNER 518-899-5020 =luthier Guitar work done right Mark hope your well, it was a real struggle disassembling the pickup with humbucker/built in hex/serial interface, they must have a jig for it at the factory, wow was it sensitve. anyway thats where the 2d serieal interface comes from. I laid out a physical diagram on a business card and included the shadow diagram, with both a competent tech should be able to figure it out. I labeled the wire budles that came out of the pickup as 1, 2, 3.
