i actually have a very similar setup, just a different head. as far as midi goes, i know there are other setups that can be used, but i am stoked with using mine this way. very cool man.
@shadzzz441791 i have both Mike Mushock sig baritones, Ibanez and PRS. You can't go wrong with either one. Both are setup for drop B tuning. They respond well and play well.
I am by far a metal/rock musician. I have met amazing talent in my struggling career as an artist, but there is energy and power in the talent you have my friend. Keep it up.
Ben Hitterman is the steel player. I recently had the chance to meet them.
