Originally posted in SR forum. That will control all functions as on the Street Rod 3 button footswitch. What cables would I need?
My goal is to run 2 amps: SR and Fender 68 Custom DR. I am leaning towards the AMP switcher Decibel Eleven Split Personality because of midi function.
Now I would need a PEDAL switcher with midi to use with amp switcher. Must have presets and more than 4 loops.
My pedal board has flanger, delay, reverb in SR loop. Tuner, Wah, phaser chorus, dirt, tremolo in front.
Way too much tap dancing! What pedal switchers are you guys using with your Splawns?

I've been using Rocktron products for years. I had a Patch Mate loop switcher that I bought used and it lasted about 12 years before finally staring to give me connection problems. I probably could have had it repaired or refurbished, but decided to buy the newer Patch Mate Loop-8.
Using any programmable switcher, you would need to dedicate 4 loops to handle the channel, solo boost and gear switching functions on the QR. You would also need 2 "Y" cables that are stereo (T/R/S) on the single end X 1/4" Mono on the dual ends. Plug one stereo cable into foot switch "A" jack on the QR and the other into foot switch "B." Plug each of the four mono ends into a separate loop on the switcher and program as desired.
Using an 8-loop switcher, this only leaves four loops to handle switching between two amps and any other requirements... may not be enough to do everything you want. However, and I must admit I haven't tried this myself, only read a little about it... the Decibel 11 loop expander would probably be a device that could provide an additional 4 or six loops to expand the switching functions

I use a DMC GCX and Ground Control. It has 8 loops, rackmount. I believe the GCX works with other switchers besides the Ground Control, but you may want to check. It works great and can do amp switching, routing to different amps, etc... It works great. I have an older version, that had a separate thing called a ground link, that hooked to the midi switcher and added instant access to that all the loops along with the presets that the ground control midi switcher gave you. I think the new "PRO" version combines that function into the midi switcher floor board. They also have some other add on stuff that just handle extra loops with midi control like you are looking for. Check out Digital Music Corp (owned by voodoo labs now). I think they are cheaper than Decibel 11

TC electronics G system all the way!! Full control over all channels, effected and 4 od pedals. 4 cable method- so the g system goes into the front of your head, both send and return of the loop, so perfectly keeping the rule of chain, effects overdrive, preamp, which ever order? as well as your guitar hooks into the g system. Mines wireless:)
Perfect for songs -
1 Make a patch for a song
2 make up to 5 presents for this song: introduction, verse, pre chorus, chorus, solo!
3 from chorus you have a solo coming up!?!
You engage solo preset - your g system engages delay, chorus, boosts your output level 2 dbs, wile at the same time changes your amp to solo mode, and!?! Patches through you favorite over drive pedal! All at the same time.
Wow!
"Knock , knock! Excuse me can you guys talk a little quieter? I'm trying to play guitar really, really loud!"
