Chaining two GCX's with one GC Pro, and going stereo

Thanks to John & John I've ordered the eprom for my older GCX to bring it up to v2 which is required if you're adding a GCX and are going to chain them together. It's very inexpensive @ $20 per eprom chip and an easy swap out of the chip. The guys have been very helpful on the phone and here on the ...

Re: Can't control 2nd GCX properly

The GC Pro is a 2005 unit. I'm not sure on the GCX's until I pull them out of the rack. The GC's switch seem to work very well and not exterior road damage is present.

I called today but couldn't get anyone on the phone. I'll try again now.

Thanks for all your help.

Re: Can't control 2nd GCX properly

You nailed it perfectly! I definately noticed that GCX-2 scrolls the lights in the opposite direction. GCX-2 goes from right to left. Also, the GC Pro is v1.01 Can I update the GCX myself? I've just ordered the stereo mod for the GCX's so the'll be apart from the GCX-1. Sounds like a good time to sw...

Can't control 2nd GCX properly

I've hooked up a 2nd GCX to my GC Pro. The problem is GCX-2 mirrors whatever is happening on GCX-1. It's not acting independently of GCX-1. I enabled GCX-2 and created a test preset on the GC Pro. In the test preset I set all but loop 1 'off' for GCX-1 and all the loops 'on' for GCX-2. And still the...

GCX & Ground Control Mods

Is it possible to order the memory upgrade component(s) so that I can set my GCP to control my two GCX's? Also can I order the stereo mod components for the GCX?

Thanks

Re: Pop on Mesa channel change

I still haven't figured out the source of the popping. Here's my rig diagram. Can anyone tell if I hooked it up incorrectly?

Re: Pop on Mesa channel change

To be more clear...the rear jacks are tip sleeve only with a mono cable on the loop. No ring connector. I don't use the Solo in the loop anymore as I ran out of loops. Time to add another GCX!

Re: Pop on Mesa channel change

That was a good question. The Mesa foot switch uses a single front panel TRS to control channel and solo on one line.
The GCX is hooked up to use the separated jacks on the rear panel.
Cables are short.
