“Pedal Effect Mode”: What It Is, and How to Call It Up
■ How to Switch to Pedal Effect Mode
1. Press [SYSTEM] to enter System mode, and set the “S1/
S2 FUNCTION” to “Normal.”
For more detailed information and instructions for this
procedure, refer to “Selecting a Patch/Using the Guitar (GK-
2A) to Select Patches” (p. 21).
2. Press [PLAY] to return to Play mode.
3. Press [S2] on the GK-2A once.
As you enter Pedal Effect mode, “PdL” (Pedal) will start
to blink in the GR-33’s three-digit display.

Press either [S1] or [S2] on the GK-2A to return to Play
mode.
The same pedal can produce different effect amounts
from patch to patch. These can be changed to suit a
song—or for any other purpose—and can be saved as
part of the patch.
For more information about each pedal effect function,
and to learn how to change the effect amount, please see
Chapter 5 (p. 35–52).
Getting the Same Effect While in
Play Mode
If you have set “S1/S2 FUNCTION” in System mode to
“Patch Select” in order to use the buttons of the GK-2A for
selecting patches, you can use pedal effects in Play mode.
The four pedals will act as they do in Pedal Effect mode
instead of selecting patches as they normally would in Play
mode. (“PdL” will appear once every four seconds or so in
the 3-digit display, indicating that pedal effects are
available.)
For more detailed information and instructions about this
type of setup, refer to “Selecting a Patch/Using the Guitar
(GK-2A) to Select Patches” (p. 21).
* With the exception of the arpeggio latch hold (p. 76), pressing
more than one pedal at the same time can result in unexpected
behavior, so please exercise due caution.
About Pedal Effect Mode
By using the four pedals on the GR-33, you can turn on
and off the Arpeggiator (and Harmonist) function, and
get effects such as synth sound hold and wah pedal.
This is called “Pedal Effect mode,” and along with the
Play mode, is often used in performance.
