Hi All,
OK, received my Rack Gizmo yesterday and have already unboxed it and wired up the whole thing in the RG16-4 cable method PDF document that Ron sent.
I have the MFC101 controller and I am using the FAS AxeII in the RG with only 4 pedals in Audio loops 1-4. I have the Amp cable in Amp 1 controlling a Splawn QuickRod.
Questions:
1. I also have a Matrix GT1000FX-2U that I am trying to incorporate into the diagram and I am wondering if it is possible for me to insert it into any of the reamining loops? (I was thinking audio loops 5 or 6 in the diagram but it looks as though these are set up for 2 pedals in the amps effects loop if I am reading this correctly?)
2. Proper setup with MFC-101 - I am really unclear what the best method would be to setup the MFC101 to send messages to the RG? I have seen some of the videos with the RG being used with MM etc. but not sure what is the best practice with the MFC101 on this?
a. I will have some 4CM presets setup and only wish to send CC messages to the RG to turn on audio loop 1 with the AxeII in the loop on Splawn OD2 channel as example.
b. Or, have some presets for the Matrix to be on in one of the audio loops and use AxeII presets with amp modeling (and be able to turn on some front OD pedals in loops 1-4 etc.)
I think setup and cabling via the diagram was fairly simple. Manually finger switching seems to be correct so far. Now I just need to be able to program it all! haha
Would love some advice or a finger pointing in the right direction...thanks!
