My man! Great video!

[@BTPA_USA]

Thanks man!!

[@Duesy_Sam]

Nice songs on Background!!!!

[@JasonWysocki]

What is your signal chain? Are you running the H9, bigsky and timeline stereo? I have the TL and BS and a Mobius and an wondering what the best way to optimize the stereo loops on the Es8. Thank you!

[@BTPA_USA]

H9 and Mobius ran stereo into the es-8 loops. ES-8 stereo out into the TL and Big Sky stereo. The TL and Big Sky are controlled on/off via MIDI, essentially making them stereo loops 9 and 10

I've been trying to determine if the ES-8, in a single Patch can send MIDI CC# on more than 1 channel. Example, one patch can send on Midi Channel 1, CC60 AND on Midi Channel 2, CC59, AND Midi Channel 3, CC57 (as an example). Thanks!

[@BTPA_USA]

It definitely can.

Hello, I have a Musicomblab MKlll and I'm thinking of upgrading. Let's say you play a song set one week and want to rearrange everything for a new set list the following week. Can song patches be moved without having to set them up again? I hope this makes sense. Thank you!

[@BTPA_USA]

Unfortunately, not too familiar with the MusicomLab unit

Awesome video! Any chance to get a Strymon Iridium midi Es8 video?

[@BTPA_USA]

Thank you! Hopefully soon enough!

[@caged7tiger]

How would you do the similar process with a Capistan v2 and blue sky running from the output and each pedal running midi thru a conduit?

[@MariJu1ce]

nice. Do you know if this will work on the gigrig G3?

[@BTPA_USA]

It should work with any basic MIDI controller

[@patrickhay2561]

What if I wanted to do patch changes as well? If I remember correctly, a patch change message won't turn Strymon pedals on if they've been previously bypassed. Is there a way to program an on/off command as well as a patch change command at the same time?

[@julioerit]

You can do both things at once: send a PC message (preset) and a CC#102 message (turn on/off) . Check this other video if still in doubt kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWekYYqwobObnZY

[@HitMan-cy2qp]

Is it possible to control 3 unit (timeline, bigsky and Mobius and simultaneously with 1 single Boss ES-8 or boss ES-5?

[@BTPA_USA]

Absolutely! just set the Timeline, BigSky, and Mobius to different MIDI Channels

[@HitMan-cy2qp]

@@BTPA_USA Thank for info.

[@funkyseany]

Yooo, what midi cables are they? Can’t find for the life of me ones that are right angled and don’t stick out really far.

[@BTPA_USA]

Hey! We make the cables here. The connectors used are these - btpa.com/05DL5M.html Here is a link to MIDI cables on our website using these. We build these to order to whatever length you'd like - btpa.com/MIDI1R-XX.html Thanks!
