Hi, I just got the GSP1101 with the official 2.0 firmware. I intend to control it with a Behringer FCB1010 midi board (Uno chip mod) and run the GSP1101 in the fx loop of a Mesa Single Rectifier head (w/ serial loop mod). The ability to run delay/mod and drive/od fx via separate loops (delay post-preamp and drive pre-preamp) with the same piece of equipment was what got me excited about this equipment the most:-) Anyway, if I can get my hands on a Windows laptop, should I update the firmware to the unofficial beta C63 version?

Does the official 2.0 firmware have some glitches the C63 version might fix? I haven't had a lot of time to play around with the GSP yet, so I'd appreciate a heads up about potential firmware bugs or significant feature improvements. I saw a few mentions on some forum about weird midi & volume level behaviour when switching presets, but it wasn't clear whether it was a setup problem or a firmware problem. I'd hate running into these kind of unexpected problems when playing a live show:-D One major bummer I've already run into is that the X-edit software is currently (as of version 2.2.1) incompatible with OS X 10.9.1 -- the program just crashes on startup.
I've e-mailed Digitech about the issue and they've answered me with a vague answer about an update being in development but no info on when the update might be ready for release. A bit of Googling reveals that Mac users out there have had the same problem for over a year now, so I guess Digitech support can't be trusted to prioritize this update:-/ They could at least mention the incompatibility issue somewhere on their website instead of giving the impression that the software will run flawlessly. Thanks for any advice!

I just use a Carvin V3M amp in 4 cable method. I would advise running the c63. With this setup, I haven't run into any glitches. Drivers Controleur Ethernet Dell. I don't run a Mac so no comment on X-edit.
I just use a cheapy netbook running Windows XP to run X-edit. I advise grabbing a third party editing app to program your FCB1010. Programming it with the pedals becomes a bit of a nightmare.

I do actually use the FCB/Uno Control Center editor with the midi board. No patience for all the midi setup tap dancing one would have to go through otherwise:D I'll give the C63 firmware a go when I get the chance to run the update.
I hope Digitech eventually manages to sort out the X-edit problems with OS X. Agelessrocker member since: messages: 346 Subject: Re: Need-to-know stuff for a new GSP1101 user?
Version C63 has additional amp/cab models, adds the ability to select pre/post for the noise gate, has some midi assignment improvements, added dry defeat, and IMHO is a better option TheDoctorMo member since: messages: 157 Subject: Re: Need-to-know stuff for a new GSP1101 user? Daemon By Daniel Suarez Pdf Download on this page. I've used the GSP1101 in live situations, mostly using C63, with very few problems. The only problem that stands out, in my memory, is a hissing noise that randomly appears on one of my presets. I think I have a setting maxed-out, in that preset, and when I switch to it from another preset, it may start a hissing. Reloading the preset fixes it.
