bypass with midi

bypass with midi

2004-05-23 by Dan

Does anyone know a way to bypass the 2101 using a midi controller 
(not the control one)? I would like to be able to really bypass it 
rather than make a preset with out any effects. Any ideas?

Sorry-Your out of luck unless you have a switching divice like a bradshaw swithching system or something. If you do not want to go that rout, there are people that can build you a custom midi controllable bypass. Some amplifiers (like the DeizelVH 4s) can have a simple modification done to the serial effects loop(the paralell one works for this but you dont want to put the 2101 through this loop because of the distortions) These loops are true/full bypass. Deizel amps for me are the best I've ever played but unfortunately the head is 5 grand. To use the 2101 in both parallel and serial you could buy a Soundsculpture switchblade. This switching system not only allows you to do what I just mentioned, but it's the only one I know of where you can set up each patch with a different effects chain. ( It will put your rack and pedal effects in any order/configuration you want on each patch!)
While this rout is a lot of fun(the ultimate!) it is expensive and heavy to lug around-unless you have roadies. The least expensive way would be to find or have someone build you a bypass.
Good Luck- RJ
The best

Ad the final stage, add a mixer. Route the input direct to one channel of the mixer and the output(s) from the last stage of the effects chain to the other input(s) of the mixer, then route the outputs to the left and right (assuming you're running a stereo patch) outputs.

Assign a MIDI continuous controller to the value of the mixer inputs.

Even easier, use the wet/dry setting and assign that to a Midi CC.
