GCX | Groundcontrol Pro problems.

Post by berre »

i'm Bert Van Hoeylandt from Belgium-Europe - and a new member here :D
I recently bought second hand a GCX and Groundcontrol Pro great fantastic sounding unit

here my problem :
when i was programming in 4 presets/bank with instant acces everything worked fine.....loops and midi program changes to my Line 6 echo pro.
until I reached bank 8 - when i wanted to program bank 8 preset 1 - the GCX & grouncontrol went nuts.... the GCX didn't respond to the loops I switched on the Groundcontrol... midi program changes do work however (?).
and when I go back to anyother bank 7, or bank 5, or bank whatever the GCX doesn't react anymore....

the only way to get it back to working order if when I switch the GCX off..... when I turn it back on the unit works back perfectly.
again until I recall bank 8 then it's the same thing all over again...

do you have any idea what causes this problem, and how i can solve it.


another problem is : that i can't get my Boss FV 100 volume pedal working... i connect it in pedal 1 input on the Groundcontrol Pro
with the special insert point cable that you talk about in the owners manual. and i follow the instructions in the manual to program the Boss volume pedal but it is not working.
i use the pedal 1 input - do get value changes when I touch the volume pedal - and I assigned it to CTL 007 like you discribe in the owners manual..
how can I solve this problem ??

greetings and please advice,
Bert

You have likely enabled the Master Link Mode on the Ground Control Pro. Turn this off! This is only used if you are using more than one Ground Control Pro. For the pedal problem make sure the Echo Pro is set up to respond to the CC007 that the Ground Control Pro is sending.
