I'm considering purchasing a switcher + commander to get my pedals off the floor, into a rack, and be able to program multiple pedals. Looks like a great produce. Currently the path is:Guitar,Tuner,Comp/Sust.,Wah,to Amp Effect Loop Send,Volume,Boost (for my Tele),Chorus,Delay,to AMP Effect Loop Return. I use a Mesa Lone Star. I want to keep the same effect in the amp loop. But can't find anything in the manual, of the Forum on this. Only loops with MIDI. I was looking a the Carl Martin Oct-switch, but the Voodoo Lab gear looks like better gear.
Please help !!!

Re: Using amp effects loop with Switcher + Commander
Given the amount of things to be switched it would seem the easy solution would be two Pedal Switchers. Pedal Switcher #1 would control the front end effects and Pedal Switcher #2 would control the effects loop effects. I hope that helps.

Thanks John, Santa thanks you too !!!
One more thing... Will your Control Switcher run my Mesa 2 channel + reverb ?
Guess I would end up with two Pedal Switcher and a Control Switcher, all controlled by Commander.

I have yet to see a Mesa we can't control.
The Lonestar will use two switches on a Control Switcher... one to A/B the channels, and the other to enable/disable the Solo boost.

Re: Using amp effects loop with Switcher + Commander
Thanks again...
FYI
The Lone Star also has a reverb jack too. I currently control it with a Boss latch switch. I assume the Control Switcher will work for this too.
Keep up the great work. We really appreciate your quick replies.

Re: Using amp effects loop with Switcher + Commander
Sorry, I forgot about the secret hidden Reverb jack. One more Control Switcher switch and you can control that too.

Thanks
Frankly it should not be so "secret". I think Mesa missed the boat on not adding a switch to their channel/solo footpedal.
No matter. Your gear will replace all, and get all that stuff off the floor, AND be able to control with one stomp.
Very Cool.
