Does the Road King have MIDI Out/Thu jacks, or does it use 1/4 TRS cables for switching like the other Rectifiers?

You'll need to connect the output of a loop to each of the external triggers on the back of the roadking....for example, channel 1 to loop 1, channel 2 to loop 2, channel 3 to loop 3, etc.

Repeat this for each function you want to control via midi. Switching that loop on will turn that function on the amp on.

That, or grab a rjm mini amp gizmo with a custom interface cable...
