"How do the three Hold modes in the GI-20 work? What makes them different from sustain? The GI-20 has some very intelligent software for handling sustaining options for guitar players. It is easy to play a chord and hold the chord while you solo."

"The Roland GI-20 has options to plug in two additional footswitches, plus a EV-5 foot pedal, and it also has a guitar output. This tutorial shows how to program the GI-20, including tips on using a EV-5 as a MIFI filter pedal sweep."

  1. hey thanks for these vids - I haven't looked at the back side of my GI20 for so long I forgot about this stuff - and these sustain/hold modes are way cheaper than a Moog guitar - OK not the same but still in the ballpark for a whole lot less- now if I can just get my playing skill up so that the GI-20 doesn't pick up those "extra" notes from sloppy finger skills I'll be happy for sure

  2. Do you use a balanced out for the "guitar out" in the back? I am wondering about this but I am only sending the GI-20 direct to my sound card and using Peavey ReValver so not needing to go out to another guitar effect or anything. I cannot find any information about this. Is this TS only or TRS also?
