@modernchair7692 based on the user manual for the GT1000 it will definitely work. We don't have any specific programming recommendations for that pedal because we don't own one at this time.
How can you program a switch to load a specific program? Let’s say you have three programs that are essential to you, and you always want to be able to access them with one tap. You put them in bank 1 A, 1B, and 1C and you’d like the OX switches 1,2, and 3 to always activate each of them, respectively. Hoe can this be done? Thank you!
This isn't an option on the H90. You'd have to use a MIDI controller to load specific program numbers. I'm not sure exactly what mode you're trying to recall presets in, but one option that might help is you could program one of the OXU switches to "Mode Toggle" which can switch back and forth between select and perform mode quickly. Also, when in Bank Mode, you can press and hold the left most H90 footswitch to go back to bank 1 from whatever bank you're on. You can keep your top 3 presets there.
We don't currently have that specific pedal. Aux setup instructions are on pages 9-11 in the user manual of the SY-200. We will make a specific video for this pedal when and if we get one.
If you have the hot switches for a program controlled by the OX3, do you have to be in perform mode to use the hot switches, or could you be in bank mode to switch programs easily while the OX3 allows you to access the hot switches of whichever program your using?
Based on page 29 of the SDE-3000 manual, it looks like you could connect two separate two button OXUs (Standard or Mini) if you really wanted. You would put the OXU in the B (Boss) setting and you will have to use the power adapter. I can't comment on specific programming for this pedal since we don't have one here.
@Barn3llc Thank you for your response. I'll look into that. I'm going to get two of the three button switches, one for the h90 and one for the big sky mx.
Lmao, thats a really elaborate instructional for something so simple. Why would you need a custom mounting plate for it, its not a midi controller? Just put it on your pedalboard. GFI systems makes a triple switch thats adds an additional button and is only 50$. Anyone watching this, get a midi controller like a Midi baby or Paint Audio Duo, far more powerful and cheaper than this. This is shameless branding
Hi, thanks for the video. Could you show how to connect multiple Boss 200 series pedals using MIDI cables and set it up so that the Boss IR-200 sends the tempo to the other pedals? Thanks!
Well, we don't currently have the IR-200, but we are planning on doing more tutorial content in the coming weeks and months. One video we hope to do is a general overview of how you can use tempo sync over MIDI to different pedals.
Can you guys post the actual sizes of the switches on your website? I'm assuming the standard is 6.5" but I have no idea how big the mini is. Also any chance for a Morningstar MC6 triple?
The sizes are listed in a chart on the OXU page of our website. The mini is 4 3/4" wide and a little over 1 1/4" deep. Based on the MC6 manual, any of the OXUs will work with it with the OXU in Normal mode.
Aux switches, in general, add additional functionality to an effects pedal. Depending on the options of the pedal you're connecting an aux switch to, you can add things like preset changing, banking up and down, tap tempo, hotswitch functionality, etc. But there's several different types of aux switches out there, so you have to know which one you need. The OXU combines the 4 most common aux switching types in one pedal.
@@Barn3llc Hi, What about "expression" aux switches? That is more of a focus for me than footswitches. I have been looking at midi controllers along the way. On an aside, yet slightly related -- I just put up a gear-vid/creative-signal-routing on my channel a week ago, where I describe my mis-use of the I/O ports on my Pod-Go. I utilize a compact mixer to blend dry/semi-dry/wet (three separate pathways).
@czarofzonk1360 yeah expression pedals are a different thing, usually for varying some type of effect. Some folks want aux switching for the static banking, tempo, hotswitch, etc functions, others want expression for modifying effects in real time. Some pedals like the Eventide H90 allow you to have both at the same time.
@@user-sn3cs2hd8r There's lots of companies and specific pedals that we don't mention. And it mainly comes down to the fact that we are a very small company with limited resources. So we tried to focus on the specific brands and pedals that our customers had been requesting for years. In the coming weeks and months we will be making more content and adding to our list on our website as we learn about other brands and pedals that the OXUs will work with. The bottom line is that the "Normal" setting on the OXU will work with most pedals out there that accept momentary aux switches.
They're auxiliary switches. They plug into other effects pedals and expand the functionality of those pedals. We have a bunch of other videos that go into more detail about specific functions.
Based on their user manual, it looks like it does! You'll set the OXU up in the Boss settings explained in the manual. Just remember that Boss only allows two aux switches to be programmed. So the third switch on the OXU Three would be unused. We'd probably recommend the OXU Standard for this setup.
Based on what we can see in their manuals and videos, yes! They need a normally open, momentary switch, which is what the Normal setting of the OXU does.
Would all three work with the HX Stomp? And if i use this, do i also have the option of using the expression pedal that can control parameters within the stomp? Thanks
The HX stomp only let's you program 2 footswitches. So the Mini or standard would be good choices. The third switch on the three would be wasted. You have to choose between aux or expression. We also have a whole video going over tge setup for the HX stomp.
It's an auxiliary switch. It can do a number of different things, based on what pedal you use it with. We have a bunch of other videos that explain some of the different options for different pedals.
@@Barn3llc Oh, I see! It goes in an expression pedal switchy thinger plug. Neat! I might have to get one when I get around to putting all my stuff on a pedalboard.
