PBC/MEG Question

[Phisherman]

Not sure where to post this, so I'm putting this here.

I have a Mastermind, and just purchased a Mini Effects Gizmo (5 loop version). For full disclosure, I'll give my entire setup then explain what I'm trying to do.

PBC Setup:
3 Button Pages currently
- Presets (exactly that)
- Loops (1 through 10)
- Switches (amps/presets on midi pedals)

The Signal:
Guitar>Wah>Cali76>PBC
Loop 1: Tru Tron 3x
Loop 2: Pog 2
Loop 3: Tri/Ram Muff
Loop 4: The Dude > KOT
Out: Spaceman Mercury IV
Loop 5: Wombtone Phaser
Loop 6: Flanger
Out: M5 Modeler > Deluxe Memory Man > EP3 (all in/on rack)
Loop 7: Echosystem
Loop 8: Monument Trem
Loop 9: Ventris Reverb
Loop 10: Rotary/Ditto X2
Output 1: Marshall Amp
Output 2: Fender Amp

The Goal:
I would like to place the Effect Gizmo in the out section between loops 6-7. So instead of it looking like this:
Out: M5 Modeler > Deluxe Memory Man > EP3
It would look like this:
Out: Mini Effects Gizmo
Loop 1: M5 Modeler
Loop 2: DMM
Loop 3: EP-3
Loop 4: Empty
Loop 5: Empty

The Question(s):
1) Will this even work?
2) Will I be able to control the units connected to MEG via the PBC since they are in an out loop?
3) How do I set this up in the editor? (trying to set all MEG pedals to be controlled on new button page, Page 4, specifically for these 5 loops called "Rack")

Thank you in advance! I hope I have explained this properly. I attached my current PBC settings.

That should work fine. Just create a device entry for the MEG, and set up page 4 with IA buttons that control the loops on the Mini Effect Gizmo, as you've described. Then, you can use those buttons to manually control loops, and you can use the Presets tab to program the buttons to automatically turn on or off for each preset in order to automate loop switching.

So put MEG in device 11 and set it to its midi channel. Can you explain how to setup loop 1 in the MeG on a new button? I can figure out the others if I know how to setup one loop via the editor.

also, is it possible to rearrange the button pages without having to completely redo them? Meaning, can I take page 4 and make it page 2?

In the Buttons tab, right-click on a button, select Assign CC > MEGX > Loop 1.

Also in the buttons tab, right-click anywhere in the PBC diagram, select Swap with Page and the page number you want to swap.

This thing is amazing. You guys nailed it. Thank you for the assistance.
