CC deluxe disappointment

Re: CC deluxe disappointment

I really wanted to add a switcher to my board, but I'm reluctant to go up in size, not to mention thanks to the stupid footswitch connection the EVH uses I'd be kind of stuck with having to do the channel switching separately anyway.

Which EVH? Have we discussed this before?

Is it MIDI enabled?

It is not. It uses a 7 or 8 channel DIN cable but there's no midi compatibility in the amp. And the switch itself is huge. The only company to ever offer any kind of footswitch rehousing flat out refuses to work with it anymore.

You need a cable like this, right?

Then the 1/4” will go to the CTRL jacks of the switcher. You’ll have to determine which is channel 1/2/3, but it would work. (Unfortunately the loop is hardwired on, but if you were using a switcher that doesn’t matter).

Hmmm, that looks quite interesting. From what I've read, one of the issues with rebuilding the foot controller is that it has some sort of controller circuit in it and isn't just four switches connected to the cable. Otherwise, even without a switcher, this could be really useful for just building a smaller sized footswitch box.

With that said, I'm thinking I should start prefacing every thread with a disclaimer pointing out my location, because this keeps on happening [emoji1]

At least you wisely do list your location.
So many others post for help/recommendations and people have no idea what continent they are even on.

I had the same idea as PFFDarkside with the cable but I didn’t know if something like this was available. If you can get a cable like this it should work with a switcher, no problem.
As stated, the din side would just go to the amp and the 1/4” side to the switcher. That’s exactly how my Splawn works although the amp itself uses 1/4” connections too.

PF helped me out a ton when I was reworking my board. He has a good grasp on how all of it works. The midi setup is confusing at first but once you “get it” it’s really pretty easy to program.

Glad it’s all working out for you!
