DT Amp control with HD 500

Does anyone know when or if all the more 'advanced' topologoy features availible in Midi will be settled into the HD 500? It would be really cool to have complete control of such a powerful platform from ny POD.

    Re: DT Amp control with HD 500

    You can control with a HD500 any topology settings in your DT50/25 by using the L6 LINK.

     

    The HD500 gives you even more flexibility on your complete signal chain and you can choose even more amp models.

     

    In addition: having a JTV-guitar, you also have complete control over your JTV-settings via the HD500.

     

    Playing a Dream Rig means that the HD500 is becoming the central hub to control your complete guitar-rig with a footswitch which activates a specific preset.

     

    This preset can consist for example an amp model, a specific DT50/25 topolog settingy, specific FXs (distortion, modulation pedals, etc.), specific JTV-settings (like guitar model, tuning, PU-knob position).

      Actually several settings availible in Midi control are not availible in the POD (unless I am unable to locate them)

      12ax7 Normal or Boost

      Feedback Capacitor Tight or Loose

      Phase Inverter B+ Voltage High or Low

        Thanks for that! I wasn't aware that these amp settings are possible with the new midi control capabilities.

         

        The settings you have mentioned are definitely NOT available in the POD HD500.

         

        And I personally never felt the need to modify for example "Feedback Capacitor Tight or Loose" to get the sound I wanted.

         

        All in all: the HD500 is for my needs the very much more advanced hub of control for my Dream Rig other than a midi controller with special software.

        those probably never will be in HD500 edit... because they have nothing to do with the HD500....

        it only applies to the DT's in standalone.... selecting a preamp/amp from the HD500 has those things pre-selected.

          Its a bummer really, to be (for me) the ultimate Line-6 rig I could edit that in the amp property (they let me change other stuff about the DT in amp selection, why not tweak it totally).

           

          It also occured to me this might have been better suited for the DT or HD 500 forum
