Diezel VH4 switching pedals via Midi w/Columbus

Our webmaster explains how to have access to FX-Sounds by using a delay and a chorus pedal. Digitech Delay hooked to Send 2 and run in parallel while the Digitech Chorus is hooked to the Channel Insert of channel 1. Send 2 and the Channel inserts are midi switchable.
Cab is a RL 2x12" with a V30s and a G75T, guitar a Schecter C1 Special Prototype. You can find nice Schecter Protos here: www.drumcityguitarland.com. This one has a Häussel P90 and (now) a BBQ Babybucker. Bridge is Tonepros, Tuners by Grover. Gibson Scale.

Is that weird sound at 1:31 from switching to the bridge pickup? Sounds like an auto wah or strange mid shift.

@cordanscedo : Yes, thats switching to the bridge and un-splitting the bridge, also YT compression increases the "weirdness".

Great overdrive tone!

Thanks.

To answer some of the questions here:

The guitar is a Schecter C1 Special Prototype, originally came with 2xP90s, I've replaced both, neck is a Häussel P90s, Bridge is a BBQ Babybucker (which fits into the P90s cavity).

Microphones are a Shure SM57 and a Superlux soandso (generic) into a Mackie thru Firewire into Quicktime on a Mac.

The VH4 does not come with a Footswitch, any midi pedal will work though. I myself prefer those who run off phantom power like Rolls, Nobels, Diezel.

Chinese STR EL34s. Since I'm playing at room level, the master is up (10 o'clock) and the channel vols are dimed. Gain full in channel 2, bright on, bass a bit dimed, middle and treble noon, presence full, depth noon.

Thanks.

Would have been great if you explained a little what's going on with the MIDI switching and how to set it up and use it... now it's just a rather pointless sound demo and we see you stepping on a button and that's it.
