Last version, I promise! This one’s called 3.2 on account of the three stereo lines that get mixed together and provide the nexus for routing:
New in this version:
• Zoom G1X Four: the venerable RP80 has been replaced by a startlingly modern unit that completes the trio of entry-level multieffect brands. In keeping with the zero-budget theme, it was not bought but traded for services (not yet) rendered.
• The big expression pedal was not particularly useful connected to the RP155, so it was switched to an input to the ESP32, providing MIDI control of the V-amps’ various CC parameters.
• The display was updated to better suit the new setup, now reading
BBBBBBBB MMM PPP NNNNNNNN RRRRRRR B = Bank name N = Preset name R = RP155 preset M = * mode P = pedal mode
• Filthy Frank is what the old MOFO prototype ended up as. For the nasty fuzz spot I went back to an old favorite based on Doug Deeper's Random Number Generator.
But most of all, after a year of tinkering I was finally able to record a couple of sounds coming out of this thing and put together a quick demo. Unfortunately my guitar playing is even worse than my programming.

I love the idea of your midi cintrol across the board. I've fleshed out a plan to build a tiny little Pi powered rig on a Pedaltrain nano+, consisting of a Pi running Reaper for recording, a Pi running MODEP for effects, and a little DIY control box with some switches to control patch switching on the effects Pi and channel switching/arming/recording toggles on the Reaper Pi.
