Now, now, MM some of us just take a little longer to get there, deep breath and count to 10 , and think nice thoughts Steve the Midi looper seems to be the solution you are looking for, is what MM is trying to say . This should meet your needs by allowing you to bring your pedals in and out via midi. However, you will not be able to switch them on and off individually as they have no 'automated' way to be triggered. That is they will have to left in the 'on position' and using the looper you can bring them into or out of your fx chain. As far as where in your chain you insert them, I guess you could either put them in the existing 2101 fx loop or your amp fx loop (if it has one) via the midi looper or alternatively before the 2101 although I have never tried that. I am sure the more experienced members of the forum may be able to point you in the right direction there if you need it. Hope that helps clarify things Out of pure interest, can you elaborate why you using your fx loop for the power amp and mikes? I'm strictly a hobby guitarist (or, as as the more accomplished musicians might say more money then talent ) and am intrigued by this set up. ________________________________ From: M M <strategy400@...> To: gsp-2101@yahoogroups.com Sent: Fri, July 16, 2010 11:48:01 PM Subject: RE: [gsp-2101] Re: Use GSP2101 to control Boss/etc pedals?

The whole point is to not have to use my foot more than once. I need the ability to change patches and have the appropriate pedal engaged/bypassed. Besides, I'm already using the 2101's fx loop for my power amp and mics. --- In gsp-2101@yahoogroup s.com, M M <strategy400@ ...> wrote: > > > Now that we know what we are dealing with (the zakk wylde pedal and acoustic >simulator?), I don't see any other type of 'switching' interface on those pedals >other than your big toe on the pedal. > > > > You are probably looking for a midi controlled effects loop(s)(er), not a midi >controlled switcher (as per Filip's post). > > > > A midi effects loop system would probably be a great investment.
