Questions on D-Moll, Time Factor, GC Pro MIDI Setup

[Stoopid417]

Greetings. I recently acquired a D-Moll and want to make use of it's full MIDI Capabilities. I have an Eventide TimeFactor and recently purchased a Ground Control Pro to control the whole setup, such as Channel Switching, Mid-Cut On/Off, Loop On/Off, Mute, and Patches from the TimeFactor. My question is, what would be the right order to connect all three?? Would it be 1. GC Pro Midi Out to Timefactor Midi In, than Timefactor Midi Out to D-Moll Midi In. OR 2. GC Pro Midi Out to D-Moll Midi In, than D-Moll Out to Timefactor In. Which would be correct?? I am running Guitar In to Polytune Tuner, Dunlop Wah, MXR Chorus, than Input in Front of amp. In the Loop, it's Setup in Series, Loop Out to MXR EQ, ISP Decimator, Timefacfactor, than Series Loop In. Any help or info is greatly appreciated, thank you.

I guess it doesn´t matter.
It should work both ways. I power my MIDI Controller with my amp, so my amp needs to be connected directly to the MIDI-Board, but since you use a power supply (am I right the GCP can only be powered by the GCX?), the order doesn´t matter.

Your Hagen is the master midi controller. Midi-in to the Hagen, midi-thru from your Hagen to whatever midi device you want to control with your Hagen. All your amp settings and switching will follow and be stored with your midi preset.

I'd run midi out of the Diezel & into the Time Factor. You can afford for the time factor to go U/S during a set and still be able to switch amp channels.

You route midi-in to the Diezel First. If the Diezel dies, then the whole chain dies and you're left to playing air-guitar.

I don't quite follow your reply. My comment is that having the midi signal interrupted by the Time factor is less preferable. The Diezel is a much better built & reliable unit. If the Time Factor were to die, for whatever reason, your ability to switch amp channels would also fail. Having the midi signal routed via the Diezel allows for the Time Factor to go U/S & still be able to switch amp channels & play the rest of a set.
