New to rack gear and need help with GCX setup

Post by cap217 »

I have the gcx and ground control but struggling to understand how to hook up 3 rack preamps to be switchable. Here is what I have to hook up and I dont know where to start.

JMP1
ADA MP1
VOODOO GUITAR PREAMP
(I am ok with only 2 amps being active at a time so I just unplug the mp1 for the voodoo if I want that combo)

MESA 290 POWER

TC G MAJOR
MIDIVERB
SPX90
ApHEX BIG BOTTOM

ISP GATE
TUNER

HUM ELIMINATOR if needed

GCX

GROUND CONTROL


Any help would be appreciated. Right now I just go behind all my gear and hook up what I want but thats short term. Id also like to learn how to control everything via midi and change patches in the TC. The TC is another story to figure out, especially in series with the wetness in the path. It doesnt sound good yet.

Hi there,
I’d get a mixer, Rane SM82S or a Samson SM10 or something and a splitter, like a Radial Shotgun.

With what you have, you can do it similar to this

Hope this helps
GCPro, GCX, Pedal Power 2+, Pedal Power AC.
And some other stuff.
