Note: You don’t have to enter anything here for the GCX or any non-MIDI devices (like

stompboxes) which will be switched through the GCX audio loops.

Enter Setup mode by pressing both [SETUP MODE] buttons at the same time. Then select this

category by pressing [DEVICE NAME/CHANNEL]. The display will read something like:

Number

The Ground Control Pro can control eight MIDI devices. This number tells you which of the

eight devices you are entering. Press [SELECT 1 or 2] to choose a different device location.

You can put each device in any of the eight locations. The only difference is that this is the

order that they will come up in when you edit your presets.

Tip: The channel # is after the “/”. If this is “--” then that device location is disabled. You

may want to scroll through each location by pressing [SELECT 2] and make sure

that every location you aren’t using has a “--” for the channel.

Name

Since after you have everything setup, it will be difficult to remember which devices were

assigned to which MIDI channels, we let you assign a name to each device. Now, when you

create and edit your presets you can refer to each of your devices by their name. You should

enter the actual name of your device here, such as “MPX-1”, “EVENTIDE” or “TRIAXIS”.

The Ground Control Pro starts with device #1 named “DEVICE”. Devices 2-8 are blank. You

change the name using the [DATA] and [CURSOR] buttons.

Note: If you press and hold a button it will repeat. You can press both [DATA] buttons at the

same time for a space.

Channel

Each of your devices must be set to respond to a particular MIDI channel, 1-16. The channel

must match the number you enter here.

Each of the devices (1-8) which are not being used must be set to “--”. This turns off the device.

To set the channel:

1. Press and hold [CURSOR 4] until the channel is blinking.

2. Press [DATA +/-] to select the desired channel number or “--” for off.

Note: Each device in your system must be set to its own MIDI channel to respond properly.

Start Number

Most MIDI controlled devices number their programs starting from 1. If your device starts

numbering its programs from 0, then the device will always be off by 1 from what is displayed
