New rack gear: advice needed on simple loop/patch switcher

[NickVicious24]

Hello all,

I recently acquired myself some new rack gear for my Diezel setup.

Pron:

The setup is fairly simple, there is an Gmajor 2 in the loop of the Diezel DMoll which is controlled via midi (FCB1010).
The Diezel is completely Midi compatible so the channel switching is also done by the FCB1010.

Now.. the above works perfectly, but...

In front of the amp (in the rack drawer) I have an Tubescreamer and a ISP decimator. These are for boosting and gating channel 2 (crunch) and channel 3 (lead). What i'm missing is a way to take these two stompboxes (which are ON all the time) out of the chain when I switch to channel 1 (clean).

I've already done some extensive research on this forum and on other sites, but the main solutions I found are either way to over capable (8 loops, channel switching etc etc) and thus to expensive in comparison to what I need.

So.. Is there a small and simple unit in the market that can hold 2 pedals in its loop and is midi operable?

Thanks for the effort and hope to hear from u guys,

Cheers

Nick Z.

You need the Wobo!

WOBO GUITAR ELECTRONICS

Yesyes! That was quick! Thanks

Other options would be the RJM Mini Effect Gizmo, an older Axess Electronics GRX4 or since you're overseas I would look into G-Lab 2xLoop: MIDI 2 X LOOP M2L | G LAB

That Wobo looks sweet!

Another (more expensive) option would be to sell off the G Major2 and FCB controller and buy a used G System.

The effects module of the G System can be removed and rack mounted, and it has three loops for pedals that can be assigned per preset. Same effects as the G Major, but with true bypass loops and a built-in controller. The foot controller part controls the effect module via a CAT5 cable, then the module can send out a midi signal to the D-Moll for channel switching.

The Gig Rig might make something?
