Would it be possible for you to elaborate on how to do it? I set up my input and output, but nothing is happening. How do I get the instruments into GB?
Thanks!

If you are using apogee gio with the Roland ev-5 expression pedal and want to create volume swells in mainstage (the ev-5 can't do this directly with GB) but record this in GB. How do you do this? My ideal would be to just use the gio with pedal directly in GB to control the effects. Particularly the volume swells. Thanks.
