Hey guys!
This COULD be in the Tones and Rigs section etc. But because of it's semi cimplexity and options and so on, I'll put the explanation of my rig in here, because who knows when some one might be trying something similar and may need some help
Cheers.
But here's how it works anyways.
I have my GCX Audio switcher controlling all of my effects in terms of if they are on, or true bypassed. This includes pedals and rack units. It also controls my Mark IV's channel switching via the relays which double up as outputs on the loops of the GCX.
I run from wireless to GCX. Gcx loop 1 out goes to my Behringer rack tuner with not return cable. This is so that when I hit TUNER, I get silent tuning because the signal circuit is incomplete and doesn't return to the GCX.
From there it goes from Loop 1 out to Loop 2 in. Send to my Ibanez TS-& return to GCX.
Out from there to Mark IV in. FX out to my DBX gate/ compressor. This is always in the signal so doesn't need to be in a GCX loop. Then into loop 3. Send to my TC electronics G-Major and return to the GCX. Then Loop 3 out to Mark IV fx return. Then to cab.
Loops 4 and 5 of the GCX along with switches 1 AND 2 of the G-Major control my Lead/ EQ/ Channel 1/ Channel 2 respectively.
My Rocktron Midi mate does all the talking for me!
I have banks of 5 presets each, along wityh the 5 Control Commands set up to deal with each of the 5 loops I use on the GCX.
Whenever I call up lets say Preset 1.
It also sets off preset effects number 1 in the g-major. Turns on channel 1, turns on my amp EQ and puts the G-major in the loop.
Cheers guys.
If you need anymore insight to the midi side of things please ask.
