From Our Research Team:

Control Your Entire Guitar Rig from One MIDI Controller!

No more tap dancing! The RJM Amp Gizmo is the perfect solution for any guitarist with an intensely complex rig but only two feet. With a single MIDI cable, the Amp Gizmo lets you control the footswitchable features of your amp from your MIDI equipped effects pedal or the same MIDI controller you use to control your effects modules. You can use standard 1/4" TS cables with the Amp Gizmo to control most amps that use 1/4" switching jacks. A wide selection of adapters are also available to give you control over amplifiers with special inputs. With eight switches that support latch and momentary switching circuitry, the Amp Gizmo lets you control even highly complex amplifiers.

By using only high-quality relays and electrically isolated switching jacks, the Amp Gizmo protects your sound from nasty ground loop hums. You can control up to five different devices with your Amp Gizmo, and storage for a total of 256 different programs lets you quickly reconfigure it for use with different setups. Programming the Amp Gizmo is just a matter of accessing its intuitive front panel buttons and LEDs, and the whole process takes only seconds to complete. And the entire unit is contained in a low profile, powder-coated steel case that's completely road worthy.

Note: To make sure that the Amp Gizmo is compatible with your amplifier, give your Sweetwater Sales Engineer a call at (800) 222-4700

Very useful and easy to use.

Music Background: What I lack in talent, I make up for in volume and feedback!
I purchased the Amp Gizmo in order to simplify the patch- and channel-switching in my guitar rig. I currently use a Boss GT-10 through a Mesa Boogie Roadster, and I was able to integrate and program ... read more [+]the Amp Gizmo into my rig in a very short time. The Amp Gizmo allows me to program channel selection at the same time I change patches on the GT-10. It uses a MIDI signal from the GT-10 to signal the Amp Gizmo to change any parameter formerly controlled by the footswitch. It completely eliminates the Mesa footswitch, and combines what was two button choices into one.

I lose the flexibility of being able to choose the amp channel for a given patch, but that's more than made up for in being able to program entire song pallets, along with channel selection, across a bank on the GT-10. This is important, since I'm the only guitar in a bar band and need to switch patches and channels seamlessly.

The only down side is the cost of the proprietary cable from the Amp Gizmo to the amplifier of choice; however the alternative is a very messy pile of patch cables. They could also have thrown in a MIDI cable, which is also necessary to make the thing work. close [-]
