Boss VF-1 Effect Processor

Thnx Sjaak!

well the cybertwin has midi thru so that should be no
problem.. i also understand that the vf-1 has te be at
the end of the line.. should be no problem either..

but you control all devices via the same midi channel?
doesn't that mean that you have to reprogram some
miditables in the vf-1? so that patches respond to
other midi-commands? for example VF-1 patch 1
responses to FC-200 bank12/button01 or something like
that? otherwise as you say all devices swith to the
same patch.. as the vf-1 will be in the effectsloop of
the cybertwin wouldn't that give some strange
effects??

what i was looking for is a device or a possibility in
the FC-200 to switch from midi channels with the push
of a button or pedal.. so that both the cybertwin AND
the vf-1 react to the FC-200 as they would when they
were alone connect to the FC-200..

so the cybertwin would react to channel 1 and the vf-1
to channel 2.. and the FC-200 could switch between
those channels.. if you understand what i mean..?

thnx

Marco
