Mailist to discuss all issues regarding the Digitech GSP-2101 Guitar FX Processor

I'm hoping someone can answer a question for me.  I'm having a 
problem with my Control One where the sound will disappear suddenly 
and the controller display will say something like Digitech FC 2101.  
I can hit a button on the controller and the sound will return.  This 
just started happening during a gig on Tuesday (way bad timing) and 
continued at Thursday's rehearsal.

I've taken it in to a repair place and am prepared to play with a POD 
2.0 as backup, but has anyone else experienced this?  At first I 
thought it was just a cable that got bumped.  I unplugged the board 
and started up the 2101 and it worked fine.  I did not try a 
different MIDI cable.

Any ideas?  Also, if anyone has one of these and lives in the 
Minneapolis/St Paul area, I'm playing a gig on August 18th and would 
like to know if anyone could loan me their controller.  I'd be more 
than happy to get you a free ticket and buy you a drink in exchange 
for the "loaner."  The POD isn't bad, but what can you say about the 
2101 other than hell yeah....

From the repair tech: I resoldered the cables between the boards but I 
can't test anything further without the processor.

I've been playing more or less straight for about two hours and the 
problem has not returned.  Same MIDI cable.  I think I'm good to go.  
I've got a different question, but that will get posted separately.
