GCP - Method for multiple midi devices ?

After a couple years of sitting around and saying I'll get to it, I'm trying to "get to it" heh.
Hey there everyone.

The manual talks about being able to control up to 8 devices but I don't know how you'd do that without running the MIDI Out to some sort of Hub where you're actually plugging 8 things into.

What do you guys recommend?
There was a MIDISport 8x8 rackmount that just sold not too long ago :evil:
I don't like the reviews I'm seeing for the Chinese ones from Amazon either..

I've got a couple other questions about this unit but I'll keep doing my research and we'll start with this for now

Hi here,
You just daisy chain them, one after the other. GC Pro out-> Midi Device 1 midi in (usually a GCX which is pedal in)> Midi Device 1 thru (GCX is midi out) -> Midi Device 2 midi in-> Midi Device 2 midi thru (use midi device thru instead of midi device out)-> Midi Device 3 midi in and so on.
With the GC Pro, you need to add each device in the settings, give it a name and a specific channel so that when you make a preset or continuous controller command, it is the only device that gets the command.
Hope this helps you out.
