I’ve been eyeing the MC-6 Pro for a while and you’ve convinced me Buddy
Buddy -thank you for this very helpful and extremely entertaining video. You keep upping your game.
Thanks Trev!!
Love midi and this is awesome
I’ve been researching midi pedals and boards so much lately. They seemed overly complicated but sir, you explained it so well and simply that i think this is the best video. I have never seen a video of yours but you immediately have a new subscriber and fan. Best of luck!
Man that is so good to hear!! Thank you so much! And welcome aboard
I’ve been trying to get my other guitarist on board with MIDI for a year now. I still have a lot of analog pedals but I mainly use the Hx stomp for most of my Fxs. Going to send this video to him. Also new ish subscriber and I love your channel. 🤘🏻
It really helps get everything simplified! And thanks so much man welcome aboard
Great video Buddy. MIDI has been a mystery to me, problem fixed.😊
when my pedal get launchd next year you will be one of the first to try it 😁 amazing concept delivery👏🙏 remember it😉
Bro thanks so much i never understood the morning glory pedal midi thanks again!
Happy to help!
Great video! I may have to get into midi now.
Go for it! It just another tool to simplify things and open up new possibilities! Thank you for watching
My man Buddy is now one step closer to selling all his pedals and having a Line6 HX Stomp as the main rig! hahaha
Hahahaha all paths lead to this thought… then to an FM9/QC
This thought scares me 😂😂😂
Truth is you’ll prob go G3 next before all modeling
Love the mc6 pro. I use it not only to control my guitar patches, but also my keyboard patches, my bandmates guitar patches, tablet notes, turn on and off the mixer talk back mic, and also to change the lights. It's soo powerful!
Getting the MC6 Pro tomorrow. My new pedalboard project is a stereo board with looper RC500. Like your energy. The MC6Pro seems very powerful for how compact it is. I'm on the fence on getting the MLX10, Morningstar's pedal switcher. If some people don't know, the Optomist is MIDI so no switcher needed!
MIDI can also be an absolute lifesaver for those who use pedals AND a channel-switching amplifier. You have full control of both!
YES! I forgot to mention that in the video! I remember my marshal DSL40 had midi switchable channels! So with one click you can turn on an pedal overdrive, delay, and switch channels on your amp with one click
@@BuddyBlues This is how I used to control my Marshall JVM back when I had it!
Amp doesnt even have to be midi switchable. MC6 has relay switching built into it
Loved this! Sub'd!
Thank you!! Welcome aboard!
Wow man that’s freaking amazing the more I hear this pedals with this type of platform.the more I want to get away from the line 6 stomp. is there a way of saving those presets for different types of guitars . Strat and vs Dgt can you save the two channels
You gotta get the Bloom set up with MIDI. You can turn it off/on, engage the boost and/or EQ and select your compressor type. Dead simple MIDI commands. I've not tried this yet, but with the MS built in MIDI oscillators/waveforms, you should be able to coax an analog tremolo out of the Bloom V2. You should also check out the MS ML-5 for your non-MIDI pedals....c'mon....you've broken the seal and dipped your toe into the dark side...time to go full hog.
I do have a suggestion for you. I have the MS MC8, and the first thing I did was to create a dedicated banks for all of my MIDI/remote-switch-MIDI-controlled devices (choose banks towards the end) and use those banks to explore what you can do with MIDI with each effect. For example, you should set up a PC counter for each of the effects that can take a Program Change and set a PC UP/PC DOWN message buttons...for checking out different sound combos.
Lastly, I'm not sure if your break down of PC vs CC is 100%. A PC (Program Change) is a preset (for those devices that have presets). CC's (Control Changes) are both "footswitches" and "knob control". In the MS editor list, PC's are generally the first commands to send, followed by CC's as the messages are sent in order on the command list (a minor thing, but can screw yourself if you do not adhere to this system).
Lastly lastly...if you are passing MIDI via a "thru port" for more than two units, it is advantageous to either: use the various outputs of the MS MIDI controller to make a one-to-one connection OR get a MIDI splitter. Using a MIDI thru will introduce latency...the more "thru's" you use, the slower the messages.
I have been thinking of doing something like this for a while now. Great video to ease me into it. BTW, what pedalboard is that?
Thank you for watching! This is the Friedman pedalboard. The biggest one they make with the Friedman Buffer Patch Bay option.
@@BuddyBlues, thanks for the reply. My plan is to buy the biggest pedals you show and make a pedalboard that can only be used in the trunk of my car! :D
Midi Blues
I’m using a simple switcher, but I’ve considered a GigRig G3 Atom . . . Is that a mid-way point to MIDI?
I’m not 100% familiar with gigrig stuff but last I heard was that they are all midi with the exception of the quartermaster? I think
I worked at Sears when he said that and had to close national telecatalog down because of that ahole. If Sears had gone to the internet Amazon would not exist
I’m completely ok with midi but you completely confused me. The pc and cc part is definitely in need of an update to make it correct
Hell ya brother
Only took you 40 years. (I still haven't used it)
Ha! It’s one of those really daunting things on paper, but once you get the hang of it it becomes second nature. Most of it is just copy and paste
