Title: help switching chanels with a midi relay
Post by: Tahoebrian5 on August 19, 2012, 09:52:13 PM
Hey all, I'm wanting to make plug for the footswitch jack that I can hookup to my TC Electronics G system. The G system has a relay output for amp channel switching.. Basically I have two 1/4 jacks coming out of the G that the G will either open or close depending on how I program it. It seems like a fairly simple task to create a custom cable that has two 1/4" jacks on one side and the 5 wire midi connector on the other. My question is if I'm reading the schematic correctly.. in order to switch channels I just connect pin 4 (or pin 2 for overdrive) to ground correct? The 12v power is not needed correct?

Thanks!

Call this a bump...

I want to do same thing that original poster wanted to do, but with a Voodoo Labs GCX. I'm tired of dancing for a lead... Anybody else got the OD/PAB midi latched successfully?

I'm 100% midi for all conventional pedals, unless I'm using volume or wah (obviously with these two). I've used the onboard OD/PAB in my OTS as a lead channel, but it just makes sense to use it midi. I use a volume pedal (in the effects loop) for boost, and I have sometimes use a combination of OD pedals in conjunction with the OD/PAB.

Anybody already making cables for the OTS 5-pin to work with two switcher channels (1/4")? I'm in a condominium now and I have all my tools in storage until my wife and I buy again (or maybe longer if we buy sans garage...). If not, anybody already have a schematic?
