If I have a preset from my processor called up on my Ground Control can I set the Instant access buttons up for cc messages(for that particular program) so I can turn the parameters of the effect On/Off? Thanks

 

 

Yes but is it the GC or GC Pro?

i couldnt find the manual that i had... you will have to call voodoo labs.. or email this guy with your question..
Nick Malgieri"

he'll help..
with the 2 input at the back of the old ground controller
i know you can program pedal response for EXPRESSION PEDALS in order to control continous controller / pitch bendin, volume paramaters for effects.....and such..

but i dont think that the older ground control can bring up a band of presets , then be able to access the effects in each preset..

i know the ground pro controller can do this....

hopefully some else can enlighten us .. i wish i still had that manual..

Yeah, I've got the GCPro but I've only used the Instant access buttons to activate what was in the GCX loops so far. I'm assuming that I can assign my processor's effects parameters to the buttons in a particular program but I'm not sure how.
The manual is a bit confusing. Has anyone done this here?

u can use an expression pedal to turn off/on an effect.


what processor are you using??

i have the older version ground control. it suits me fine. i just hit one button and just have only what i need on, includes what need to do .. if i want wah or pitch bending i use the two expression pedals.....

as for the processor itself.......if i just NEED only an effect turned off? I JUST CREATE ANOTHER PROGRAM AND STORE IT. THEN BUILD A NEW PRESET (GCPRO) WITH THE EXACT SAME LOOPS ON AND OFF. AND GIVE IT A PROPER NAME..

YOU SEE TO ME THE WHOLE IDEA FOR A RACK SWITCHER IS TO HIT ONLY 1 BUTTON ON THE FLY.. I DONT WANT TO BE DANCING WHILE GIGGING ....... HOPE THIS HELPS ....

GIVE NICK A HOLLER AT VOODO LABS

Intellifex.
What I'm trying to achieve is a delay trail that finishes up as I've switched to another preset. The intellifex doesn't have this spillover and I was trying to find a workaround for it through CC messages. I've heard they will trail if you assign the delay functions to an instant access button.
At this point I'm thinking I might just get another processor with spillover to run in tandem with the I-fex.
What kinda things can you do using a expression pedal with the Intellifex besides pitch bends and volume adjustments?

what you need is a system mix plus by dmc... alas they dont make these anymore... it allows reverbs , delays, or any effect to "tail off" when you change channel/preset .. that way the delay or reverb, echo is not heard in the "drier" channel/ preset.
at the same time the System Mix Plus does not kill your original tone!!!!!!!!!!!!! sweet tone.....

heres the bad part......... the run about 600 to 800.. if you find em. alas...

THERE ARE WAYS.. BUT IT MIGHT MEAN A SECOND PREAMP, SECOND POWER AMP........
.OR EVEN JUST A MIXER AND USING JUST A LOOP OUT OF THE RACK SWITCHER TO A/B TO MIXER /BACK TO POWER AMP SECTION....?? JUST MAYBE..

EMAIL ME .. with what you got dgabriel713@yahoo.com .. hope this helps..
