Channel Tracking:  
Your Crate GFX2200HT gives you the power of Channel Tracking! Once you select a DSP setting for  
each channel, Channel Tracking recalls those DSP settings automatically – without changing the DSP controls!  
For example:  
• Select the Clean channel. Set the DSP Mode to “FLNG 1” (slow flange + reverb)  
• Select the Overdrive channel, Gain 1. Set the DSP Mode to “CHO 1” (slow chorus + reverb) (the setting for  
the Clean channel is now saved to memory)  
• Select the Overdrive channel, Gain 2. Set the DSP Mode to “T-WAH” (touch wah-wah) (the setting for the  
Overdrive channel, Gain 1 is now saved to memory)  
• Reselect the Clean channel (the setting for the Overdrive channel, Gain 2 is now saved to memory)  
Now when you go back to the Clean channel, even though the DSP Mode was last set to “T-WAH,” Channel  
Tracking automatically recalls the last setting for the Clean channel – in this example, “FLNG 1.” Change to the  
Overdrive channel, Gain 1, and “CHO 1” is recalled. Change to the Overdrive channel, Gain 2, and “T-WAH” is  
recalled. That’s the power of Channel Tracking!  
(Note: Even when the power is turned off, Channel Tracking still retains the settings – until you change them!)

. POWER: Use this switch to turn the ampli-  
er on (top of the switch depressed) and off  
bottom of the switch depressed).  
10. MID: Use this control to adjust the  
midrange frequency level of Channel B.  
19. GAIN ONE: Use this control to adjust the  
amount of light distortion for Channel A. Gain  
One produces less intense distortion than  
Gain Two (#17) and is active when the Gain  
switch (#18) is in the out position.  
11. LOW: Use this control to adjust the low  
frequency level of Channel B.  
. ON LED: This LED illuminates when the  
mplifier is turned on.  
12. CHANNEL SELECT: Use this switch to  
select either channel. With the switch in the  
out position, Channel B is selected and the  
adjacent LED illuminates. When the switch is  
depressed, Channel A is selected.  
20. INPUT: Use this 1/4” jack to connect your  
guitar to the amplifier by means of a shielded  
instrument cable.  
. CHANNEL SELECT FOOTSWITCH: In-  
ert the 1/4” stereo plug on the cable attached  
o the two-button footswitch (supplied) into  
his jack. This will allow you to use the  
ootswitch to control channel and gain selec-  
on (Channel A - see #18).  
21. TUNER: The tuner is active whenever the  
amplifier is turned on. The bottom row of  
LEDs correspond to the strings of your guitar.  
The top row of LEDs indicate which way you  
need to adjust each string for proper tuning. A  
string is properly tuned whenever the corre-  
sponding LED on the bottom row and the LED  
in the center of the top row are illuminated.  
(See detail below.)  
CHANNEL A: The Overdrive Channel:  
13. LEVEL: Use this control to adjust the out-  
put level of Channel A.  
. DSP FOOTSWITCH: Insert the 1/4” mono  
lug on the cable attached to the two-button  
ootswitch (supplied) into this jack. This will  
llow you to use the footswitch for on/off con-  
rol of the selected DSP effect.  
14. HIGH: Use this control to adjust the high  
frequency level of Channel A.  
15. MID: Use this control to adjust the  
. DSP MODE: Use this control to select one  
f the 16 built-in digital effects. A listing of the  
ffects is shown on page 3.  
midrange frequency level of Channel A.  
"TUNED"  
16. LOW: Use this control to adjust the low  
frequency level of Channel A.  
"FLAT"  
"SHARP"  
. DSP LEVEL: Use this control to adjust the  
mount of the digital effect. In its fully counter  
lockwise position the signal will be “dry”  
without any effect). As you rotate the control  
lockwise the amount of effect increases.  
17. GAIN TWO: Use this control to adjust the  
amount of heavy distortion for Channel A.  
Gain Two produces more intense distortion  
than Gain One (#19) and is active when the  
Gain switch (#18) is depressed.  
STRING INDICATORS  
CHANNEL B: The Clean Channel:  
18. GAIN SELECT: Use this switch to select  
one of the two gain controls for Channel A  
(#17, #19). When the switch is depressed,  
gain two is selected and gain one is disabled.  
Both of the adjacent LEDs will illuminate. With  
the switch in the out position, gain one is  
selected. The right-side LED will illuminate.  
When a footswitch (#3) is used, this switch is  
disabled. The LEDs continue to function in the  
manner described.  
.
BRIGHT: This switch, when depressed,  
oosts the upper frequencies of Channel B.  
. LEVEL: Use this control to adjust the out-  
ut level of Channel B.  
. HIGH: Use this control to adjust the high  
requency level of Channel B.
