Controller. The Ground Link is connected between the Ground Control and
the GCX as follows with standard 5-pin MIDI cables.
1. Connect a MIDI cable from the MIDI Out of the Ground Control to the
MIDI In of the Ground Link.
2. Connect another MIDI cable from the GCX Out of the Ground Link to the
Pedal In of the GCX.
Because the GCX powers the Ground Control and Ground Link through the
MIDI cables, both cables must have all five pins wired. You do not need the
power adapter that comes with the Ground Control.
GCX loop settings are stored by Ground Control, therefore the STORE button
is not used.

If you are already using a Ground Control and GCX, adding Ground Link to
the system will not affect their operation. Now with Ground Link, you have
direct control over individual loops of the GCX. To change the state of a GCX
loop (turn it ON or OFF), press the foot button on the Ground Link that
corresponds to that GCX loop (button 1 controls loop 1, button 2 controls loop
2, etc.). The LEDs on the Ground Link indicate whether loops are ON or OFF.
Using the Ground Link does not affect the Ground Control presets. If you use
the Ground Link to turn GCX loops on or off, and then select a Ground
