Holy smokes. I feel bad for every other looper/switcher now, Daniel just PWNED them all.
Seriously, you need some sort of award for your achievements in, dedication and service to the music industry... revolutionary! - Dan for OBE !!!
hahah! thanks mate that's very. kind
"It's really simple (to program)"
I'll believe that when I see Mick do it unaided 😜
Even it’s 3 years ago. The tutorial is good to this day. The new G3s is a great upgrade. Thank you.
Result! The off camera look and smile on your face after changing the order of pedals was a special moment Dan. Congrats to the Gigrig Team and video production Crew. 👏
cheers mate, really appreciate it
@@TheGigRigDaniel Only a matter of time before I contact Pedal Empire or order direct Daniel. Best and Be Safe.
This is nothing short of genius. Congrats, Dan and GigRig team!
Thanks James 🤓👍
Wow! I wish I would have seen this 2 years ago! I've been trying to get my head around how to use Midi on my rig and with an Amp with built-in effects and I finally understand it! PTL!
IT took me a while to understand that the Loops in the back of the G3 were Audio loops for each effect pedal and NOT TRS Midi Loops. But now I got it. I'd like to actually see the back of your G3 to literally see which connection is going to what, but either way, I FINALLY understand how to set up a Midi controller on my rig!
..... and all that without needing to break into my computer!!! WOW!
That’s awesome mate, glad we could help 🤓👍
Dan is one of the coolest dudes ever.
You’re way too kind 🤓🙏
This answers all my switching questions and issues. This unit and tutorial makes so much sense for someone who is pretty ignorant about switching and loops. Appreciate the walk through!
Thanks so much Adam 🤓🙏
@@TheGigRigDaniel Thank you all at GigRig! I've been going back and forth amongst all the switchers and your company is pretty much the only one working with the consumer base, as well as giving tutorials. It's not unnoticed and greatly appreciated.
i am always impressed with your achievements. you truly are the modern day Pete Cornish and Bob Bradshaw. but you allow us to be our own Bob Bradshaw with whatever we have. now & future. and its durable!
That’s way too kind, I’m not in the same league as those behemoths, but I do have an incredible team that make this possible. Cheers mate
I got rid of my G2 after years of service, it was one of the best products I've bought in the past decade. Daniel was so in tune and in touch with his customers it was awesome. Sadly, I've turned into a bedroom player and just like being able to switch pedals around here and there. I feel the G2/G3 won't make sense for me, but boy I wish I could justify it! Kudos on the kick ass product.
Cheers mate 🙏
12:35 -> The sheer amount of joy in his face :D
this is literally a big hit in the head to those digital modeling device companies. Now everything they can do that pedals couldn't, we can now! incredible.
Cheers Jimmy
I could listen to you talk and see your eyes sparkle the whole day long!! :-D
Order placed, awaiting delivery
I’ve been watching you and Mick for two years now, and happy just running pedals in series, and I just now realized I need to have this in my life!!! Totally getting one of these dude!! 😂🎉
AhC cheers mate, I’ll keep one warm for you 👍
Put down my deposit yesterday!!! So psyched!
Pretty awesome. Being able to change the order of the chain is BADASS. Also being able to assign stereo loops is BADASS. The whole thing is BADASS.
Damn, this is exactly what I've been waiting for!
then wait no longer my good man 🤓👍
Omg love it! More please!!! 🙂🙂❤️❤️
this is next level 👀 pedalboard goals
Wow... Fantastic!
Just ordered mine! Oh baby
Jesus this looks like a serious beast
Yep, I just ordered my G3 The extra 2 loops and the Preset read out and easier menu navigation alone will make my life easier !
Thanks Dave
This is SOOOO awesome Dan!!!! If I had money to get one, I’d order it right now. Well Done!!! And Congratulations on developing another mind blowing piece of gear.
Thanks so much!
Mick would be proud...of Dan waiting for the delay trails to finish before he started talking at 5.04 :)
Seriously though, huge congrats Dan and team on this one, the atom and the hub. One can sense the hours and hours of thinking that have gone into it. My G2 is looking unnecessarily nervous, but I’m trying to work out which board I could build around an Atom.
Crushed. It. You look and sound so pleased with the loop ordering :) It really is impressive, all of it! I might have to buy my third looping system from you. Very well done!
Yay! Thank you!
Watching this video is an education in switching for me. It's given me ideas even if I never own the G3. I do own the QMX6 and was considering adding your Wetter Box and ABY-BABY, but now I just may go for the G3 Atom. So many awesome things you can experiment with and do!
Cheers C 🤓👍
Awwww Dan!! You are THE MAN!!!!! What a wonderful wonderful wonderful product, and laid out so clearly!! I have toured with Tommy Emmanuel, Colin Hay and others for years, using a 'different product'.. I know what I'm swapping to! Where have you been all my life?! lol. Respect brother, from Melbourne Australia. S
The deep deep irony of the section on reordering NOT being reordered in post-production of this video is... chef kiss.
Hahahah
Awesome!
Brilliant! 😉👍👍👍
Thanks for Sharing, definitely going to look into this more! Great easy explanation.
I have multiple Overdrives and 2 HX Stomps.
(Configuration / Routing possibility’s are AWESOME!)
Thanks Corey 🙏
What I learnt from this: Drive after Chorus sounds amazing.
I don’t know if I will ever be able to understand all the wizardry in this device, but what an accomplishment! Huge fan of That Pedal Show, I owe all of my pedal and gear knowledge to you and mick, and I’m probably not the only one! Thank you for all you do for the guitar community and I wish nothing but success for you Dan! I will be buying a quartermaster as soon as I have the funds, so maybe someday I will upgrade to this beauty!
Thanks Jason, really appreciate it 🤓👍
Helpful hint: If you need a switcher, this is the one to get. I have it and it is one of the most solid guitar purchases I have ever made.
Ah mate, thank you so much 🤓🙏
A little too expensive for a 15 y/o, but at least I know what I’ll be saving up for this summer! Love!
cheers Martin
I love you, Dan.
Ah, awesome! Thanks Robert 🤓🙏
@@TheGigRigDaniel Hi Dan. Got a question for you. I have the Jesse Davey Duellist, Hermida Audio Zendrive, Ceriatone Klon, Timmy and a King of Tone. Just wondering how you would stack these bad boys? I'm going in to Fender Super Reverb using a Strat, Tele and LP. I'm waiting on the Gigrig G3 so will be able to stack anyway possible but keen to hear others would use them and why? Thanks
I’m slightly embarrassed to say it Dan, but I bloody love you!! 😜 This is the best thing EVER!!! So glad I was too broke from all the pedals you and Mick “made” me buy to invest in a G2 before now!! 🤣🤣🤣
Ha! Cheers David 🤓👍
@@TheGigRigDaniel this might not be the place for such a question and if so no worries but here we go...
You probably don’t recall but on a previous TPS VCQ I asked about a two board, two G2 set up configured as one “core board” and another for “add-ons” and you told me the best way to do that would probably be putting the secondary board’s G2 in one of the loops of the primary G2. Seems to me from everything I’ve seen on these videos and your website that with G3 the same thing is possible and it’s still the best way to do this.
My main question though is whether the secondary G3’s loop presets can be controlled somehow from a preset on the primary G3? In other words when I change presets on the primary G3 can that “click” also change what is engaged on the secondary G3 or would I still need to “manually” select the secondary G3’s relevant preset and active loops as needed?
Hope I’ve described that well enough to make sense?
Sits staring at G2 centered board.... "I still love you, but parallel mixing and Midi CC........" :) Looks awesome, well done to Dan and team at GigRig.
Thanks David 🤓🙏
Almost have my pedalboard full of keepers, finally. Once it is finished for the most part, I'm getting a G3 after I get my mark 1 Tone bender
Nice 👍
As a Latin American musician, I don't see any possibility of affording this beauty in this life. But I want to tell you that i love you! Thank you for such a clever and beautifully designed switch pedal. You are the best!
Thanks so much David 🙏
Schmidt array board! Just like mine!
I wasn’t planning on spending more money 😆
I love it when he says “and there you go” and i’m still wondering how to make this thing turn on before losing my mind trying to make it do anything. ‘Mick does MIDI’ is like the intro to how boggled I get with anything I can’t just twiddle a knob to make it do something. I’m not even old! I know I need one but I just don’t get how it works.
Best way to get one of these to Vancouver bc Canada? Great job here everyone, amazing stuff
gonna get this... I'll keep my g2 tho ;-)
With the preamp essentially in its own loop, could you potentially run it into the front of the second amp... or would that implode the universe?
This is great! I was wondering what the setup would be to use the effects loop of two amps in a stereo amp setup with the 4 cable method?
Hi Sam, all you need to do is pout each amps preamp into its own effects loop. You can then choose between preamps, run parallel for both preamps into stereo effects into both power amps
Only improvement I can think of is trs jacks for every loop, so that each one can be run in stereo, thus you won’t have to make compromises if you need 12 loops! Otherwise this is just fantastic as is!
Thanks mate, the Atom has TRS for every loop 🤓👍
Hey Dan! Brian Omillion is going to be building my rig soon so I’m really excited! We’re going to use the ML10X to add extra loops to the G3. I’m a bit confused how the loops on the ML10 can be controlled from the G3.
Hi Kristen, I’ve been watching a few of your vids, I really dig you’re playing, awesome stuff! Brian is fantastic and will build you something really special. If you put the ML10 in a loop of G3 and control it with MIDI that will give you the best of all worlds. Use your most used effects in G3’s other loops so the ML10 is bypassed when you don’t need it, then activate the ML10 loop and send the MIDI message to activate it. Hope that helps 🤓🙏
@@TheGigRigDaniel Aw thank you so much for your kind words, Dan! Brian has been really kind so I'm definitely excited to be working with him! This sounds like it's going to be really cool! We're making it so that I can either do a mono rig for live or a stereo rig for studio so that's totally new for me, but it's going to be awesome once I understand it all lol!
You can change the order of effects right? With the "four-cable-method" could you have a preset run a delay into the FXLoop and another preset running it into preamp?
That last example of reorder, does that still work in the 4 cable method.
Really worth every penny!
Question:
If my Preset 1 in Bank 1 has a Delay from the Strymon Timeline and I would like to copy the whole preset (means the G3 settings of Loops, Gains AND the Strymon Delay from this preset) to Preset 1 in Bank 2, is there a simple copy function or do I have to set all parameters (gains, which loops active, etc.) manually on the new preset?
Thanks for your help.
Got one on order, so excited to use it... sucks so hard that its not going to be until April :-(
Appreciate that these things take time to build... but still. :-(
Cheers Chris, we’ll be doing everything possible to get it to you ASAP. Thanks so much for your patience

100%@@TheGigRigDaniel / things can only get better. Thanks for everything you do. And please pass on my thanks to your team. There answers all my bonkers questions since ordering the beast and been super helpful. Great company, superb products, wonderful people.
I absolutely love my g3. Cannot say enough good things about it for ease of use regardless of complexity. I have not done this yet but Im actually interested in setting up midi with a couple pedals. I have never been even remotely interested in going into that rabbit hole of doom but the g3 makes it so simple, I figure why not dip a toe into the midi pool?
Hey Brian, thank you SO much, so glad you’re happy. MIDI is a fantastic tool and G3 makes it so easy. Any questions just let us know 🤓🙏
Dan if I normally run time-based affects through loop, can this still work for me?
Hey Dan! I’m getting excited for my G3 to arrive. Silly question, but do I assign a switch to get to my tuner? This is a little new to me because for years I would just have my main output from my loop switcher coming into my tuner so I wasn’t wasting a loop for the tuner itself. I had to step on the tuner itself to turn it on. It would be nice to have the tuner on the new board I’m putting together and just get to it with the G3 instead. 😊
Hey Kristen, we’re excited for you to get it as well. Yes, you simply choose what footswitch you want to assign for your tuner, then select tuner from the menu. That’s it, now when you press that footswitch the built in tuner will activate. Another neat trick is to assign the built in tuner to a hidden preset, I have my first preset as a basic bypass tone. If I press that a second time it brings up s hidden preset which is where I have my tuner 🙏👍
Is it possible to have mono effects in the loops after a stereo pedal? E.g. gain stages split into dry and wet (modulation) parallel paths feeding into a stereo delay with tremolo and reverb hitting the left output of stereo delay?
For the Mercury M7, was the input into G3 done by a Y-TRS cable or mono in?
How can you do stereo effects when you are running into one guitar amp?
Hi Daniel, I'm just starting installing my G3 (with evidence plugs), and I'm not so gifted. How should I plug my stereo tremolo "Effectrode Delta-Trem", knowing it has one mono input and two stereo outputs? Thanks so much for that good product (order #14521). I love the Pedal Show🤩. All the best.
Dan, about the external midi control, just confirming this allows program changes via midi CC to automate the pedal changes in a liveset? Was thinking to have it automatically switch via Akai MPC for example. Thanks!
Hi, do you mean program changes via PC message? Yes it does 🤓👍
Can you still do a wet/dry/wet like I can with my G2? I do not see a volume insert connection, can you program one of the loops to function as one in conjunction with the humdinger?
yes, add a HumDinger and you have wet/dry/wet
So if the default order is 12345678901112 we would want our default wiring/ assignment of pedals should follow the desired signal path? 1-compressor 2-distortions in the order you usually would stack them 6-12 delays chorus reverbs etc? Otherwise we would be (and could) be assigning pedal orders for each preset we create?
Thanks
I'm looking for a swither that have two stereo input and out. Will this do it?
will the square 400 plugs work with this???
this is black magic.
G3 has many advantages over G2, but crucially it effectively has fewer loops. On G2 you did not have to sacrifice a loop for the send & return of your FX loop. G2 has two stereo loops as part of its 10 loops. If you want two stereo loops on G3 you have to double up on loops, two
loops per stereo pedal. So a G3 using your FX loop and two stereo pedals would be left with 7 loops for other pedals, giving you a total of 9 pedals. The same setup on G2 would support 10 pedals, two stereo pedals plus 8 others.
I just bought the G3 and went to switch it out with my G2 and now have fewer loops to work with....when I thought I was getting 2 more. Real bummer.
What a great board! I have a question: if im running my moduler effects in stereo and in the effectsloop in both amps, is it possible to connect then both in the 4 cable method? Or is 8 cable method 🤔
Yeah, that would be the 8 cable method, totally doable
@@TheGigRigDaniel how would i go about that?
Just got my G3, it's awesome! I want to use some stereo effects, but I can't always have 2 amps. Will the G3 sum to mono if I use just 1 amp?
Thanks so much! You can set up your stereo effects using parallel. Have a bank or banks that are stereo (no join in parallel) then copy and paste that bank then edit for mono (join after loop 12 in parallel) 👍
I have a question about using the FX loops of the amps but in a stereo rig where you would have two amps with FX loops that I would like to send the reverb and delay into both amps through both FX loops. Do I just put both loops into the G3?
Yeah, you just need 2 power amps to send the stereo output to 👍
You didn’t mention power. What do I need to get it connected to my generator? I know it needs 650ma. Is there a high current adapter just for this?
I was very happy to see the 12 effect loops instead of the previous 10 but then I noticed that you have to sacrifice 1 for the effect loop instead of using the volume insert on the G2. I will still buy a G3 in the next few days though with all these midi improvements, the possibility to reorder the loops, the digital screen and app that make it a lot more user friendly. G2 is still one of my very best purchase in the past years so I know I won’t be disappointed with the G3. For the G4, I wish we could get a tuner integrated that would be great 😁, and small digital screens on each preset with the name of the preset. With the release of the G3 i guess I can still wait for a deep update of the midi + app 😂.
the volume insert in G2 is great, but by including that loop in the main loops of G3 it just gives you extra flexibility. Plus the Tuner/Aux in G3 is its. own TRS loop, so you really have 13 programable loops in G3 🤓👍
@@TheGigRigDaniel Thx Daniel, I just ordered my G3 from Andertons (wishing that I would still get the 1st batch...). I mentionned that I would prefer the French plug for the power sypply but I am not sure if you give them that option(?)
@@TheGigRigDaniel Can you put the volume pedal in the tuner/aux and insert it where you want? I bought 2 new pedals to add to my board I am making the switch from G2 to the G3 so I am having some issues. I still want my volume to be after the drives and before the delays, but I feel like I haven't gained any inserts at all since loop 10 was stereo to begin with and now I have to use a loop for my volume pedal. I still love all the new features though and am happy to make the switch(pun intended)!
I figured I would just get a remote loopy 2 but I know the supply chain issues are causing problems in production right now, but I will get one as soon as they are available!
How do you run two amps at the same time with 4 cable method?
Anybody know which Schmidt Array model pedal board is being used in this video?
It’s the reordering applications that have me most interested in this. Does anybody know - for those pedals that have their own internal in/out loops, eg KoT, DOD Rubberneck… can you use the G3 to put pedals in those loops at some times, then back into the main signal chain at other times? If that makes sense?
Hi Joe, I have an internal loop on my KoT, it means I can swap the order of the sides and even use them in parallel 👍
@@TheGigRigDaniel Wow… that’s amazing Dan. Talk about a game changer!
Great! Just one question. Can you run the stereo delay and stereo reverb in paralell??
Totally possible, just need to check on the four way split at the front. Needs to be fed from a low impedance source. We’re already doing a similar thing with the stereo trails so I’ll add this to the list 🤓👍
Just one question about the loop ordering. If I am using the 4 cable method would it be possible to change the position of the amps effects loop too?
Example 1: Like Dan said I put the Preamp in Loop 4. For some songs I would like to have the Delay and Reverb in front of the preamp so I would change the position of the preamp in the loop order after loop 12?
Example 2: If I want to play something in the style of Tom Morello, all pedals in the effects loop of the amp, I would change the loop order that the preamp is before Loop 1?
I am just wondering if this would work.
Sure would 👍
Hi Dan,
Can you please confirm that TRS hicon_jack_hi_j63sa04 are able to be used with G3 atom ? I didn’t find out TRS right angle from Evidence audio ?. Thanks 🙏 ☺️
I suppose reordering is also available when we placed the preamp of my amp in a loop of the G3 ? For example some effects in front of the amp , time effects in the loop of the amp using 4CM and my Strymon Mobius sometimes in front sometime in amp loop depending on my taste of the day ?
Absolutely Manu 👍
@@TheGigRigDaniel thanks for your quick reply...
I also wrote to the support page for more info about shipping to Belgium. Will go for more technical questions about using Boss TAE and 2 switchers because now I have 2 pedalboards... 1 with time effects in the loop of the TAE and 1 with pedals in front of the amp ...
@@TheGigRigDaniel where can i write to you about my intended use of the G3 please
@daniel TheGigRig How do you wire the microcosm in stereo, what kind of cable would I need?
Also if I have a couple pedals wired in stereo but then just run one amp do I have to unplug the stereo cables or change the pairings? You
Hi Dan, loving the gig rig it's really awesome work you're doing!
I have a question about stereo pairs. I'm running 2 amps in stereo and I noticed if I try to run mono send/stereo return, out of a stereo pair channel I end up getting no sound out of whichever side has no send from the gigrig (even though I have a return coming back into it). Some pedals only have a mono in but have stereo out, is there a way to make this work on the gigrig?
Cheers, Trent.
Nevermind I fixed it!!
@@Sorbzski99 it's been a while but if I remember correctly...
I "jumped it" - kept it as stereo send and plugged a cable to the in and out of the side I wasn't using.
I think I also noticed that the gig rig was swapping left and right channels for some reason and I had to plug in to the opposite side.
Somebody please remind me what the intro song that is from what tv show ?
What cables are people using with these? I have used Mogami gold on my board but would love a cheaper alternative because I need about 8 more to attach all my pedals.
On this board I’m using Evidence Audio SiS 🤓👍
@Daniel TheGigRig OK, here's a question about the Tuner/Aux "loop". The manual mentions it can be used as an additional (13th) FX Loop, but there is no further info on how this works exactly. Any chance you could expand on this? What I have in my head here is too complicated to post here ;)
Hi, sure thing, it’s a TRS loop, send is in the tip, return on the ring, so a TRS to two mini cables and you’re good to go 👍
@@TheGigRigDaniel Perfect, thank you!
Now, if you really, really wanted to make this stupidly powerful, make the ins/out TRS connectors with a dip switch under each one that lets you select whether it will be a stereo or mono loop. That way you don't have to give up 6 monos loops to get 3 stereo loops. And you just use TRS to TS breakout cables to connect the stereo effects. Let the CPU sense the switch position, so it knows which ones are which type, or if that's not practical, allow them to be selected in the menu.
If you have a mix of mono and strereo pedals, can you reorder them and have the stereo effects converted to mono if they are followed by a mono effect? For example I like to use my Strymon Mobius in Stereo at the end of my effects chain but sometimes I wish I could have it in mono Pre dirt pedals, could that be done with the G3 without re-wiring anything?
Sure, you can change the order, then sum the möbius outputs 👍
@@TheGigRigDaniel can this work with presets too? Meaning can one preset have the Mobius in stereo and another preset have it set to mono / pre dirt? Thanks!
Daniel - With this new device where does a volume pedal get connected? I use a volume pedal for swells and some volume control with my delays. The delays are normally run through the amp effects loop. So in my G2 I have it in one of the Loops and it is before my delays. I did like the dedicated Volume Insert in G2, but that goes away when using the Effects Loop configuration. Does that differ on G3? Thank you.
If you’re using your amps fx loop the signal would go from the G3 loop send, into the volume pedal, out of the volume pedal, into the amps input, amp fx send, to the G3 loop return 🙏
@@TheGigRigDaniel Should I be doing that with G2 as well. At present my Volume is in #7 followed by the delays in #8,#9,#10.
There’s 2,772 presets available on G3, to be exact.
Question is, who would actually use all of those presets?
Steve Vai.
Hi Dan, love TPS.
I'm wondering if I could use the G3 with my Friedman Runt-20 combo amp or Blues Deluxe amp and my Fryette PS-2A? I haven't bought the G3 yet (G3 will be my Christmas present to myself) so any ideas about my request on the feasibility of the Combo - power amp - G3 togetherness? Furthermore, I don't use the loop on my Friedman as I prefer the loop on the Fryette; would I be able to utilise the loop on the G3 together with the loop on the power amp? Overdrives etc into the front of the amp via G3 and time based FX in the loop of the power amp. I'll stop now, as I don't know what I'm saying any more.
Hi! Yes, G3 will help you put all that together in any sequence you like. Power station loop is so good as it is effectively after the driving power stage if your amp. 🤓👍
How does this work if you have backing and the amp doesn’t have an effects loop? Do you have to reprogram your board ?
Hi there. If you’ve got the board set up to integrate into an amp with an fx loop and yiu end up with back line that has no effects loop, you can simply place a patch cable between the send and return of the loop your using for the amps pre amp. Hope that helps 🤓🙏
and the soft buttons for Remote switches do what, exactly?
Program the remote switches as part of a preset 👍
Just to be clear, it also switches the preamp of any amplifier? Its super nice you can put the preamp of an amplifier in a loop, but I never hear people talk about the switching of the preamps in the amplifier. Is this because this is like stating the obvious? Just insecure about this part.
So example, bank 1 is clean(channel one of the amp) with reverb and delay, bank two is crunch(channel two of the amp) with an overdrive pedal. Might be a pointless question but I never see this adressed in detail so 😊
Hey RP, G3 has 3 ways to switch the preamp depending on the amp. It has programmable remote switches so if your amp uses a standard two button footswitch you can simply swap the footswitch with G3’s remote switching. 2nd is MIDI incase your amp is MIDI programmable, and third is audio. If your amp has separate inputs for each channel , DC30 for example, you can switch the channels by simply choosing which G3 output to use 👍
@@TheGigRigDaniel awesome. Thanks for the reply! This is going to the top of my list 😊
I have a few pedals I always leave ON. Can I just put all of them into one loop to save the rest of loops for more individual pedals? Cheers!
Hi Tony, absolutely 👍
@@TheGigRigDaniel thank you!!
This thing is honestly incredible but I get anxiety if my pedal has more than 4 knobs.
Hi there, in the 4CM there is no limitation and I can choose any Loop for connecting, not only Loop 5 right? Just checking and probably is a dumb question, but I just want to be sure :-) Cheers.
That’s correct, any loop, you can then change the position of that loop 👍
@@TheGigRigDaniel thank you!
hey thats amazing staff, can i know how much cost this in euro please??
Hi Daniel, I just purchased the G3... my G2 from 2018 stopped functioning, tech said I need a new "rail" for the upper switches... he said he doesn't have them available at the moment and I needed to use the switcher in order to keep on working so I went for the G3... where does my "volume pedal" go? on the G2 there was a volume pedal insert section i plugged my Lehle into. I can't seem to figure out where to put it in the G3. let say i don't use my amps fx loop/return... i'm guessing i just hook it into one of the 12 fx loops?
Hi Alvaro, yes, we incorporated the volume loop into the normal loops n G3, there are 12 loops in G3 as opposed to 10 in G2. Because of the routing options in G3 you can do a lot with a volume pedal in one of the loops from changing position in the signal path to being on one side of a parallel split and using it as a mix control 👍
@@TheGigRigDaniel Thank you for the wonderful reply, I'm very impressed with all of the options and add ons of the G3. Still trying to wrap my head around it all. But my goodness you've created a New Universe for Guitar Players to Keep on Living the Dream. Huge Hugs and Gratitude, thank you for being you!
If I'm doing the 4 cable method does it matter which loops I choose on G3 since we can reorder them? If I have a mono reverb in 11 and have my amp in 8 could i just reorder 11-8 then out? Thanks!
Hi Joe, you can use any loop you like but I do recommend putting things in the order if most use, to simply cut down on the times you need to reorder the loops
@@TheGigRigDaniel killer. Thanks!!!!!
Anyone knows what pedal board case is he using in the video.
