back and forth we go back and forth...


If you do not yet have the stereo mod for any of your GCX units then you will simply use a Y Splitter cable from the last GCX loop in your signal chain to feed two amps.

If you have added the stereo mod to GCX 3, Loops 5-8, then you would use an Insert Point cable from the last GCX Loop in your signal chain to feed your two amps.

John, just have to thank for the information.
I apologize for my lack of knowledge.
Not wanting to abuse you, you could make me a drawing showing these options you reported.
As for cables, tell me how would be the jack (between mono and stereo).
Again, I can only thank you for your help and patience.
Thank you.

It would be just like you have it but using a Y cable to feed two amps from Loop 8 of GCX#3...

The question you have to answer is, is GCX #3 modified for stereo use?

If mono you will use a Y Splitter cable with all mono ends.

If Stereo you will use an Insert Point Cable with one stereo end and two mono ends.

I see.
So how I modified my GCX 3 for stereo, I use the Y cable jacks all mono.
Right?
Thank you my friend.

I'm afraid I am unsure what you are asking...

Is GCX #3 modified for stereo?

Marcus... you need a Y Cable with all three ends mono.

This cable will split the mono output of GCX #3 Loop 8 out to feed the inputs of your two amps.
