OK, I dont have my rig from Bruce yet, but its supposed to be here in a few weeks and when it arrives, I dont want to have to sit and just look at it. So, I'm acquiring all the necessary cables to hook everything up. I have made a drawing and I think I know pretty much how to do it, but hopefully someone can answer a few questions and check my thinking.
The M4 will have 2 instrument cables from the G System preamp (insert) send and return...since the G System is rack mounted with the M4 the cables can be fairly short...say, 18 inches long.
The M4 will have 2 MIDI cables from the GS midi in and midi out...again, these midi cables can be short.
The loops can be loaded with effects pedals...I dont see needing them with the dual channel modules, but perhaps in the future I could hook up an OD pedal for a slightly different flavor on lead parts...these would be instrument cables and they could be short and I could just leave the pedals on the rack.
The expression pedal will need a short cable from the foot controller to the exp pedal...is this an instrument cable?
Out of the G System to the VHT power amp I will use 2 instrument cables...one right, one left...these can be short as both will be rack mounted.
Out of the VHT I will use 2 speaker cables to my stereo 4x12 cabinet.
Where do I put my Peterson StroboStomp tuner? does it go in an effect loop or does it go between my guitar and the M4 (it is a true bypass pedal)?
I've always used a BBE Sonic Maximizer...I dont know if anyone is using one with the M4 and VHT combo...if so, what results are you getting and where in the loop would it be placed?
