Using Midi With Stompbox Mode; Using Stompbox Mode With Non Midi Pedals - GigRig G2 User Manual

When you press foot switch 3 on your G2 you will see your amplifier and the two pedals change
instantly. You can now do this setup for all other presets or wait until later when you have
finished this example.
Tip.
You can have more than one pedal on each midi channel; remember with G2 the unused effects
are out of the signal path and so it does not matter how they are set until they are selected.
Tip
You will need to do the midi mapping on each of your midi pedals and midi amplifiers. See their
corresponding manuals for individual midi in instructions.
Tip
The midi setup on function 7 (foot switch 7) will allow you to send midi while still in setup mode;
this is so you can send midi to devices that can learn and associate midi commands with preset
functions.

Using Midi with StompBox Mode

One of the great things about using Midi with our StompBox mode is that you can set it to work
for any situation.
Example 1. I have a Midi controlled delay and reverb pedal, and I want to have two stompbox
presets that turn on two different delays on top of any other sound I have going. Easy
First, set the Midi IN Channel on the pedal so that it has its own channel, let's use channel 2.
Now we do into SF7 Midi set up mode, we select the presets that we want to use as stompbox
mode presets for out two delay sounds, and make sure that they are set to Midi channel 2 and
only Midi channel 2 by using the instructions in the chapter above. Exit SF7 Midi set up mode by
pressing the PHASE button. Now press the G2 footswitches that you want to set up your first
delay on, don't forget to make sure that you have the delay effects loop selected as well. You'll
see the delay preset changing on the pedal. Now program the corresponding sounds you want
on the pedal. When you're happy with that just press the StompBox Mode but and you 'll now
have and instant access to those stored delay presets and be able to throw them on top of any
other preset. You'll still be able to use those delay and reverb pedals as part of a preset, you
just need to make sure that preset also includes Midi channel 2, as well as the channel on any
other Midi device you want to include.
Example 2. Using StompBox mode with non Midi pedals.
All you need to remember is to turn the Midi OFF on any StompBox mode preset that that
doesn't include a midi device. (See Special Function 7 for details) If you don't then G2 will still
send PCM message so while you might be trying to add a phaser, the Midi signal will still be
sent to the Midi device.
