11. Using the EXT input/outputs.

This output allows you to connect a number of GigRig products together
so they can talk to each other, remotely switch TheGigRig into Bypass, or
separate the top and bottom banks. (See the GigRig Loopy2 product to
use this EXP input to expand your pedal board further).

BANK SEPARATION.

This feature allows you to separate your 14 channel GigRig into
effectively two seven channel GigRigs.
For example you may want to use the top bank in mode 1 to select which
guitar you would like to use and the bottom bank, also in mode 1, to select
the effects pedal combination for your sound.
You can separate the two banks, top rail and bottom rail of the GigRig by
simply inserting a shorted 3mm jack plug (connect both wires together)
into any EXT input. The bypass and mode functions will still work as
normal.
You can use a standard stereo jack plug if a mono plug is not to hand.
(Connect all three wires together).
You can also use Bank Separation mode with two or more GigRigs
connected together.
Two GigRigs, with a connection between EXT on each GigRig will work as
one big 28 channel GigRig.
Two GigRigs used together with no connection between EXT sockets will
obviously give you two 14 channel GigRigs.
Two GigRigs with a connection between EXT on each GigRig and a shorted
plug in any free EXT socket will give you effectively four seven channel
GigRigs.
The EXT input can also be used to send TheGigRig into bypass standby
mode. A short 5V pulse, 5mS or longer, will send TheGigRig into low power
Standby mode. The output indicators will be left on and all other lights,
including bypass, will be switched off; your guitar will be routed directly
to both outputs.
Note, both EXT sockets, left side and right side, on TheGigRig are
identical.
