memory. The buttons will flash to confirm that the state has been stored. Please note that the store function doesn’t work

Connections 

In this basic 6 pedal configuration, all you need to do is connect each loop send to a pedal input, and each loop return to 
the same pedal’s output. Then, connect your guitar, amp and MIDI controller and you’re ready to go! 

The MIDI In and MIDI Out connectors can accept either 5-pin or 7-pin MIDI cables. 7-pin cables are only needed if you want 
to phantom power a compatible MIDI controller. With the included power supply, the Mini E

ect Gizmo X can power a MIDI 

controller that takes 9VDC at up to 800mA of current. 

Please note!

 When phantom powering a Mastermind GT, use the Mastermind GT’s power supply to power the Mini E

ect 

Gizmo X. The power supply included with the Mini E

ect Gizmo isn’t powerful enough to power the Mastermind GT.
