RE: [gsp-2101] master volume with CC controller

2010-06-02 by Steve krall

Are you talking about the midi cable? 5 or 7 pin? I'm not sure I'll have to look. 
 
The part that concerns me is that even from the front panel controls, I can't get that program to go to zero. I'll just have to spend some more time with it....hope it's not some full reset issue. 
Thanks,
 
Steve

What kind of cabling connections do you have?

Yes...GP...I have tried that parameter. I have to tell ya'll...I've been using preamps for 25 years. Yes...the 2101 is a bit different with it's multiple mixer options, but from The Chain Reaction I bought new in 1986-7, to the GSP-21 Pro, to the RP-2000  to Rocktron Voodu Valve to Vox Tonelab SE, and several others....I' ve ALWAYS found a "master volume". And I DEPEND on it with my life! 

Now...after exploring on my own a bit, I have:
1) Selected a program (Distortion + delay)
2) Assigned the CC to Post EQ Master Volume distortion "on". 
3) Calibrated the Pedal
4) Set min/max

And under this program...I still have volume in the minimal setting. With the above operations, I have reduced it...but it's still there...still audible as if on "1/2" or "1" on a typical guitar amp master volume. I would conclude that there is some sort of leakage or fault in the pedal or midi. . But under a different program...no fx....CC works perfectly... dead quiet to full volume. 

Now I can only conclude that with effects, the signal is somehow being routed away from this "Master Volume" parameter. As you can see...it's very frustrating. I appreciate the "how to link a parameter to cc" message...but I am FAR beyond that. The volume link to CC is working..... and the best I can see at this point is it is working without effects...and not working so well with effects. 

I should add...that even with the 2101 front control panel...the master volume does not make the volume go to dead quiet. Faulty 2101? 

I will continue to beat this issue over the head.....but I need some REAL help here! There has to be something I am missing. 

Signed,
Desperately seeking zero volume with FX.

Have you tried using the Volume at the end of the analog section?  I believe it's right after the analog EQ.  The advantage of using this Volume control is that it allows any digital effects such as reverb or echo to trail away even though you've reduced the volume of the signal being sent from the analog section to the digital section.

Hey thanks! I have the manual.....my problem is I can't find "MASTER VOLUME" to assign the pedal to. Some patches have a TON of left/right mixes...but there's no clear cut "mater Volume parameter. 
 
I did find one patch that has a complete volume control...but it's post effects. I'll try to find what parameter they assigned...that will work for non-FX patches.
