TC Electronic G-System Integrated Guitar Effects and Controller
The TC Electronic G-System Integrated Guitar Effects and Controller delivers an uncompromised package of effects, loops, amp switching, floor control, and rig integration. It's equipped with two DSP sections that provide the very highest-quality effects on the market. Choose between a rack and a floor-based setup, decide how the effects are routed, tailor the footswitch layout, and select from more than 25 different onboard effects. And it's all built into a rock-solid roadworthy case with 18 giant chrome switches. Extras include 3-band EQ, a smooth noise gate, MIDI implementation, and a USB port for software updates.
On the Floor or in the Rack?
Do you prefer to have your pedals right next to you or would you rather secure them in your rack? The GFX01 19" 1U effects processor can simply be removed from G-System and rack mounted, leaving the decision up to you. A single cable connects the GFX01 with the G-System floor unit, putting your stomp boxes and messy cables out of sight while keeping the power and control under foot.
Analog "True Bypass" Loops
Preserve your original tone with the four analog true bypass pedal loops, all under preset as well as "on-the-fly" control. A fifth loop can be used for inserting a preamp or a fifth pedal in your setup.
Rock-Solid User Interface
Direct access user interface is via six rotary switch encoders. Not only does the heavy-duty chrome switch protect these encoders housing, but it also protects vital components below. With no vulnerable plastic knobs and no obvious openings, G-System is sealed against dust, dirt, moisture, and spills on stage.
Chromatic Tuner
With the full chromatic tuner you can always keep an eye on your guitar tuning. By pressing and holding the tuner switch, the outputs will mute and precise tuner information will be displayed on the LED. Hitting any switch will instantaneously un-mute the output and send you back into the play mode.
Pre Effects
Effects that are typically used prior to your lead effects are found in the pre effects section. They feature a high-impedance instrument input and full 96kHz/24-bit conversion and processing. This high resolution processing ensures maximum preservation of the guitar's original harmonics, which are vital to the character of any overdrive pedal or preamp.
Filters
The filter section allows you to select between touch and manually controlled filters, ranging from wah wah over formats to high peak resonance filters.
Compression
The compressor section enables perfect dynamic control of the previous filters including a pumping-style compressor or the more transparent compression style that gives smooth dynamic control and lengthy sustain
Analog Pedal Loops
Any disengaged pedal will eat into your guitar tone. The 4 analog loops in G-System give y

Rogue Distortion Guitar Effects Pedal
The Rogue Distortion pedal creates an edgy distortion effect reminiscent of the hard rock tones of the '70s and '80s. It also lets you overdrive your favorite tube amp or solid state amp, creating harmonically rich, sustaining tones.
Three control knobs let you quickly adjust the amount of distortion, high-end bite and overall volume of the effected sound. A true bypass switch engages and disengages the effect. An LED indicator shows you when the effect is engaged and gets dim when it's time to change the battery.
The Rogue Distortion pedal is made of aluminum and built to last.
T-Rex Engineering Gristle Luxury Drive Guitar Effects Pedal
The T-Rex Engineering Gristle Luxury Drive is based on simplicity, durability, and most of all tone. This pedal is designed to serve as a boost to drive your overdrive/distortion pedals and your amp harder. The T-Rex Gristle Luxury pedal's increase in signal offers you an added edge of "treble-licious" tone with a slight bit of touch-sensitive compression that won't fail in the low end.
Rocktron HUSH Ultra Rack Guitar Effects Processor
The Rocktron Hush Ultra processor's innovative digital stereo noise exterminator provides two channels of the same world-renowned professional noise reduction used for years in thousands and thousands of guitar rigs and recording studios. The Hush Ultra features True Bypass, an LCD display and programmable presets with MIDI control allowing you to tailor your Hush settings on individual presets to suit your needs. The Hush Ultra provides both 1/4" and XLR inputs and outputs, and is easy to setup and easy to use.
When used properly, the Rocktron Hush Ultra is completely transparent (i.e., it should not effect the audio signal—only the noise). The Hush Ultra front panel provides two controls which each manipulate both channels simultaneously. The Hush Threshold control sets the amount of noise reduction required for a given input signal, while the Gate Threshold control provides additional downward expansion when increased. (The Gate Threshold control may also be used by itself, allowing the unit to be used as strictly a downward expander.)
Rocktron's patented Hush noise reduction is a single-ended system that combines the principles of dynamic filtering and low-level downward expansion.
Dynamic filtering is achieved by dynamically-controlling a low-pass filter to open and close the bandwidth of the output signal. The filter bandwidth will only open far enough to pass the highest frequency information in the input signal, thus reducing the noise above it. For example, if the highest frequency present in the input signal is 8kHz, the filter will open to pass up to 8kHz while the noise from 8kHz to 20kHz would be reduced. If a signal with frequency components up to 20kHz appears at the input, the dynamic filter will open to its full extreme (40kHz).
The second half of the Hush process incorporates downward expansion. The low level expander of the Hush system operates like an electronic volume control. The Hush system utilizes a voltage-controlled amplifier (VCA) circuit which can control the gain between the input and the output from unity to 30, 40 or even 50dB of gain reduction. As the input signal level drops below the user preset threshold point, downward expansion begins. It is at this point that the expander acts like an electronic volume control and gradually begins to decrease the output signal level relative to the input signal level.
