Multiple Audio Loopers controlled by one GCP

[ChrisParry]

I recently got the Ground Control Pro and GCX and it works great with the 8 effects I'm running through the GCX and the 8 IA buttons.

I want to add an additional midi controlled looper (something like the Disaster Area DPC-8EZ (GCXs are hard to find here in South Africa but if I can find one I'll get another GCX)

My question is how to I setup a preset on the GCP to use the two different loopers and if I have say 2 compressors (loops 1 & 2) how do I set one preset to use loop1 then the next to use loop 2 but use IA button 1?

I'm sure I can figure it out but I want to know it is doable before I purchase the 2nd midi looper to add additional pedals to the rack

Thanks

This can certainly be done, but the exact solution depends on the second switcher and its MIDI capabilities. For instance, with the DPC-8EZ I believe you would control that using presets only as it responds to MIDI Program Changes. This would be saving a combination of loops on the DPC-8EZ itself and recalling that saved combination from a Ground Control Pro Preset.

The Instant Access buttons are global, meaning their programmed function will remain the same across all presets.So if you program Instant Access button #1 to control GCX Loop 2, it will always control only GCX Loop 2.

I hope that helps!
