    Is there a pedal switcher out there with amp control built in?

    I use a Voodoo Labs GCX. If your amp uses standard TRS it'll work out of the box. If there's some fancy bull**** like mine has you may have to get a custom cable made. I did.

        I'm looking more for something with presets as well. Sometimes I would need to make multiple pedal changes instantly

          Basically I want the functionality of something like a boss GT-8 but with individual pedals

            Well yes... it's fully programmable and midi controllable. I'm the same way... my rig has to be midi controlled. If I have to hit more than one button at a time I am going to trip on something.

                Damn this **** is so expensive XD. Going to end up costing me almost 2 grand to build what I have in mind

                  They're not cheap but they're worth it. Aside from using it as a channel switcher and to handle the few pedals I keep in the rack, when I bring my A rig I use it to switch between the preamp in my head and a custom one in my rack.

                    I'm just having a hard time justifying straying from my gt-8 because it already does everything I want and the cost of building a new set up.

                      Maybe, but there's way better sounding stuff out there than that GT-8. Consider finding a used rackmount multi-FX for your time-based stuff... it's a lot less money and more flexible than pedals. Then in front of the amp just have your comp/boost/OD/wah/whatever which can be controlled by the GTX. It'll be a much more flexible and probably better-sounding rig.

                      I have a you-know-what for one of these but holy hell are they pricey:

                        I'm not sure what you have in mind but I'm using a TCE G system for my setup, it has 4 loops for different drive pedals, built in effects that are pretty good and has midi or trs switching for amp controls.

                        It's a whole lot of stuff but it does what I need and has hundreds of presets, lots of features and fully programmable. I got my still in box new for $600.

                            You got a link for info on that?

                              Some people seem to have had significant buffering issues with the G System. That was as of a few years ago so I don't know if it was ever resolved. I like the concept of the G System, and I wish there were some more options out there that offered 4 wire hookup. It's THE reason I keep having my old Lexicon MPX G2s repaired.
