Hi there, new MM/22 GT user here.
I've recently switched from the FRACTAL MFC-101 to the GT22 controlling Axe II XL.
Ok so this GT22 is a monster! And I've spend the last day configuring it to my taste and all went smooth and easy.
I'm facing one problem though and it’s the expression pedals.
I'm using 2 Mission pedals connects to Ext 1 and Ext 4 in the GT same as it was on the MFC.
In the Axe I use EXT CTRL 1 = cc21 and EXT CTRL 4 = cc24.
I went through the manual and calibrated the pedals + also defined in the GT expression 1 + 4 to the correct cc's (21 + 24).
When moving the expression pedals I can see that midi signal is going into the Axe but I have the same strange problem in both:
When I move expression 1 (cc 21) I can see over the Axe screen that it "jumps" the External 1 controller to 60-70% as soon as I start moving the pedal and then it continues the rest of the % up to 100 in linearity according to the increase.
Same happens with the other expression (cc 24), as soon as I barely move it a mm up, it makes the Axe External 4 controller jump to 60-70% and then going up to 100% according to the pedal move.
One thing though – I'm not using a standard TRS cables to connect the missions to the GT, I've soldered my own stereo cable into the pedal output jack and out to a TRS plug as I didn’t had enough space between the GT and the pedals for the plug.
Anyway, I thought maybe it’s the Tip Ring Sleeve order but it worked the same for me over the MFC-101 so I assume it should be the same for the GT, right?
What am I missing?
Thanks.
