Anleitung Zusammenfassung
Each section offers unlimited freedom of expression and unsurpassed controllability. Roland has created a name for this new level of performance capability. It is the word ''paraphonic,” derived from "parallel” plus "phonic." Nearly all of the controls on both the Guitar Controller (Guitar) and the GR-500 Synthesizer are grouped and labeled to fall within these five sections. Output from each of the five sections of the GR-500 Guitar Synthesizer can be channeled separately or in combination, through any of three Independent output jacks. Remarkable flexibility is afforded by this capability of connecting each output to the amplifiers most appropriate for its source. It is also possible to channel all sounds through a single amplifier by using the MIX OUT jack, which contains the outputs of all five sections. A headphone jack also contains the sound from all five sections, and enables you to perform or practice privately.

Note that output at the MIX and HEADPHONE jacks is a mixture of the three output channels. THRESHOLD To assure optimum performance results regardless of individual playing techniques, this control helps compensate for variations of picking, and differences in intensity of picking. HEADPHONE JACK/LEVEL Receives headphones and allows adjustment of headphone volume level. GUITAR SECTION Responsible for providing the sound of a conventional electric guitar, this section features an equalizer on/off switch (EQ) and an equalizer frequency control (EQ. FREQ.). When the guitar volume of the Guitar Controller is set at the proper level, an LED indicator for the Guitar Section illuminates to signal that guitar sound may be produced. POLYENSEMBLE SECTION This totally polyphonic section features four voicing mixer controls plus envelope controls for ATTACK, DECAY, and SUSTAIN. When the volume of the Guitar Controller is set at the proper level, an LED indicator for this section illuminates to signal that Polyensemble sound may be produced. BASS SECTION The following controls are provided in this section: (1) Three voicing slide levers, for PERCUSSION, SOFT, HARD. (2) Three envelope slide levers, for ATTACK, DECAY, SUSTAIN. (3) Selector switch for PERCUSSION DECAY LONG/SHORT (4) Three-position string selector (5) Three-position TOUCH SENS selector switch. This section employs a last-note-priority system in which the ultimate note sounded corresponds with the sound of the last string played. {See page 10.) When the volume of the Guitar Controller is set at the proper level, an LED indicator illuminates for this section to signal that Bass Section sound may be produced. SOLO MELODY SECTION Having a basic function similar to that of a conventional synthesizer module, this section employs a last-note-priority system in which the ultimate note sounded corresponds with the sound of the last string played. When the volume of the Guitar Controller is set at the proper level, an LED indicator illuminates for this section to signal that Solo Melody sound may be produced. LFO modulation of the VCF in this section can be remotely controlled by an on/off switch located on the guitar. EXTERNAL SYNTHESIZER SECTION To greatly increase the performance possibilities of the Guitar Synthesizer, an external synthesizer can be controlled through this section. Examples of Roland synthesizers recommended for this purpose are the System 700, the System 700 Laboratory Synthesizer; the System 100: Basic Unit 101 and/or Expander 102; and the SH-5. Further, since both plus and minus gate voltages are available at the rear panel of the GR-500, most other brands of synthesizers may be used also. OUTPUT JACKS Output signals can be taken directly from three separate channels, as determined by the settings of the Output/ Selector Switches on the control panel. This means you can select the amplifier and speaker system best suited for each output, i.e., a bass amplifier for the Bass Section. You will find that each output jack is equipped with a thre^step output level selector switch. This facilitates the connection of amplifiers of nearly any type and makes studio recording more convenient. EXTERNAL SYNTHESIZER CONTROL JACKS Provides for the control of external synthesizers.
