I can't get them to talk to eachother! I have three other midi pedals hooked up to the mastermind and they work fine, but when I added the fourth, I can't get the Preamp to receive messages from the mastermind. To set the Preamp's midi channel, I have to hold down some buttons til the display flashes, then send it a message from the mastermind, and whatever Midi channel I send it on is what the Preamp sets its Midi channel to. But it just never gets that message. Any clues?

First test, try putting it first in the MIDI chain and see if that helps. One of your pedals might not be passing MIDI, or one of your cables could be bad.
Also, make sure that you're setting the channel correctly. If you just select a preset on the PBC, it's not going to work correctly, especially if you have multiple MIDI capable pedals. Details here:

It's possible... try plugging the Preamp directly into the PBC's MIDI output and see what happens.
Thanks for the quick reply! I did that, and it receives PC messages. It receives them in ch 2 and 3 as well, but as soon as I move it to the 4th position in the chain, it stops receiving anything. I've attached a screenshot of the mastermind's device page, I'm assuming there's something I'm missing here.
