OK
so got this Boss GT 8 multi effects processor. I am NOT a computer expert and to be honest some of it sceers me LOL (with crashes,virus's etc.)
Anyway, the GT 8 has midi capabilities and there is a program for editing patches for the GT 8.
Also patches are posted.
Anyway, I have read some problems with connecting a USB to Midi with windows XP sp2.
I can get this cable "M-Audio USB Uno 1X1 MIDI Interface" (or another, but this is the one that crops up alot in a search and is relatively cheap).
I have been reading over at
www.bossgtcentral.com BUT I trust YOU guys! and consider THIS my forum HOME so wanted to ask you your opinions.
Basically there seems to be driver/recognition issues with this cable config. at times.
Is there a chance I can "fry" somthing? Transfer a virus or somthing to the GT 8?
Any suggestions for hookup?
I have a Sony Laptop Intel P III 700MHz 256 RAM windows service pack 2.
Appreciate any words of wisdom to those more computer savvy than myself.
Cheers,
Nick
