Re: GCP with GCX, AxeFx and Ernie Ball volume pedals

I’m not John... :!: Just want to share my findings after having the same issue. The EB Volume pedals have a logarithmic response curve. They push CC# at a higher rate the closer you get to the toe position. I have tried 3 different EB Volume pedals to control my G Major 2 via the GCP and they all a...

Re: GCP with GCX, AxeFx and Ernie Ball volume pedals

One last question: I have read the various comments on use of expression pedals and understand that nearly all passive pedals work. However, I am getting a non-linear response (only the lower 50 % of the pedal responds). I am sure that this has been posted, so if someone would be so kind as to poin...

Re: Mesa Boogie Triple Crown w/ Ground Control Pro

Assuming the TC50 is last in the MIDI chain, make sure to use the MIDI Thru from the G-Major to feed the TC-50, NOT the MIDI Out. Otherwise, as a test, you can connect the Ground Control Pro MIDI Out directly to the MIDI In on the TC-50 to be sure the two are programmed correctly. Let us know how i...

Two Amps, One GCpro

I have a GCpro/rack rig that I would like to be able to use with two different amps with multiple channels. I am hoping to use Instant Access channels 5-8 to control Channels 1-3 + Solo boost of each amp. One of the amps is a Mesa Mark V, which is just old enough that it uses 1/4" External Switching...

Re: Mesa Boogie Triple Crown w/ Ground Control Pro

I am also setting up my TC-50 with the GCpro, but can't seem to get the two to communicate. I am using pgs 21-23 of the TC50 manual (https://mesa-boogie.imgix.net/media/User%20Manuals/070544-TC50-180115.pdf). I set the manual rotary switch on the back from 0 to 1, which should enable MIDI channel 02...

Re: GCX and Ground Control. Connections.

No problemo! You could use the volume pedal as an MIDI Expression to control parameters on your G-Major2 including Rig Volume. This would keep you from having to run your audio thru so much cable. For the tuner, you could use the buffered split in the GCX. For instance, connect your Guitar to the G...

Re: GCX and Ground Control. Connections.

What if I want to run a Volume Pedal plugged into the Ground Control but at the START of the FX loop of my amp? Using the previous link as an example, can the volume/expression pedal be programmed to engage between loops 4 & 5? That way the volume swells are post-gain, but pre-time FX? I imagine th...
