Note also that you don't want the sensitivities to max out when you pluck a string, even pretty hard.  You want it to fall shy of maxing out when you play loud.  You will definitely have more mistriggers if the settings are too high.

From the manual:
QuotePluck each string at the hardest strength you would likely use,
and adjust the sensitivity values so that the meters don't reach
excessive levels
, which indicates an overload. If a given meter
overloads, lower the SENS value for that string.

Quote from: Witelite on Yesterday at 06:08:09 PMYes but in my test it does not impact the output volume of the normal (magnetic) pickups. I think the signal from the AD converter for the normal guitar signal is hotter than the normal output from the GR55

I never used the GR-55's guitar out.

I just did a different test - first I played from the GKC-AD guitar out to a regular guitar amp, clean channel.  Then I unplugged the guitar cable from the GKC-AD and plugged it directly into the guitar's mag output.  The GKC-AD path has a brighter, thinner tone than the direct path, though I didn't notice a volume difference.

Quote from: Witelite on Yesterday at 03:14:18 PMYes. I assume if you save the one in settings (let's say GK1) and the preset is set to use GK1 that you don't have to do anything (ie it will take the updated settings?)

Yep. 

Note that under the main Menu | GK Setting, you are not only making individual GK adjustments, but you are also selecting the system-wide default GK setting.

On individual patches, under Master, you may choose to select which GK setting you want for that patch.  You can select 1 for GKSET1 or SYSTEM (if that is set to GKSET1 under Menu | GK Setting).

If you are seeing different responses on different patches, I suspect the different patches have different GK settings. 

Regarding your video, yes, the signals went down  after you reduced the gain - that is expected.  Think of the gain here as a coarse level setting for all 6 strings.

From the manual:
QuoteGain 1–4
Adjusts the gain when a GKC-AD is
connected. Lower the Gain setting
when the input sensitivity doesn't
decrease even after you've lowered
the Sens value, or if the sound distorts
when you play strongly.

Boss really needs a better global assign section.

Like let us have a global option where we can assign CC# to anything we want that is inside the unit and it'll do that every scene / patch.

I just wanna set my midi controller up with a few simple global CC# options so it's the same across all scenes / patches.  Stuff like holds, modulations, oct up / down etc..
I can do modulation for some reason with CC#1 value 127 and it works across all scenes, but the other things I have to do per scene / patch in the assigns.

I don't wanna have to go into each one and assign CC# in the assign section for certain things every preset and save them etc. Too time consuming.
Save those for important things that need it per scene / patch basis.

Argh boss!

In this case I was actually referring to the magnetic signal. I wonder if that gain setting affects the magnetic setting output. I wouldn't think so but I'll check it out.

And if you're updating a patch selection, you've saved the patch.
