Amp Channel Switching Pod Hd 500x and Mesa Boogie Single Recto Series One

Hey folks!

 

I'm wondering here if is it possible to switch channels, reverb (on/off) and solo switch (on/off) on my Mesa Boogie Single Rectifier Recto-O-Verb via Pod Hd 500X via midi cables.

 

My amp has a cable (I don't know if it's midi or not) directly connected to the footswitch pedal.

 

My main idea is stop using the footswitch pedal and use only the pod to do the amp channel and features switching.

 

Does anyone know how to set it up properly? What parameters should I send via POD to the amp?

 

Best Regards,

 

André

After a quick look at your amp's (minimal) manual, it looks like a standard electrical switch. The POD, unfortunately, doesn't do this. I could be wrong, though, so try Mesa support for a definitive answer.

It can be done... but you will need some help from an external switching box like the Voodoo Labs Control Switcher - http://www.voodoolab.com/controlswitcher.htm. It would take the MIDI OUT from your POD and translate the program change (PC) or control change (CC) messages to the switches to control your amp. Not hard to do... but an extra step.
