Re: best midi pedalboard for a new rack user

good units,has two expression pedals-works a treat with my sgx2000 but is fucking fiddly with other units [img]/images/graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

my unit is about 15 years old too and has been dropped many a time,including a set of big stairs-still works a treat and lights up like a christmas tree

they have a goofy purple paint job, which should go nicely with the purple 2120...

anybody else have any suggestions?

I have had ART X-15 for 15 years, give or take 1 or 2. It's still kicking and has been one of my most used pieces of gear.

Go with a DMC ground control <font color="red"> </font> . Nice and simple,and they sell for a great price.

I bought mine on eBay for 40 bucks! Great controller.

Re: best midi pedalboard for a new rack user

new question: are the cables for different midi pedalboards different, or is there a standard? i dont want to buy something and then have it not work with the 2120.

Re: best midi pedalboard for a new rack user

MIDI is the standard! (yes the cables are the same)

The Art X15, can that also change guitar channel on an amp?

My GCX Ground Control did over 1000 shows before I had to replace it. I got another mint one for $125 0ff the Bay. I like the fact that it has a lighted LCD where you can name your patches. Here is a picture of my old one.

Re: best midi pedalboard for a new rack user

This may be an odd approach, but I'm using a Digitech RP10 effects processor simply as a MIDI switcher for my JMP-1. You can name the patches on the LCD screen also. Actually, you could use about any cheap floor effects processor that has MIDI out for simple patch changes.

+1 on the DMC Ground Control. Many say that it has been a staple for the touring rackhead for ages.
