It seems to me that Line 6 has been saying that they are going to rectify the lack of midi control for POD Farm for the last 2-3 years in an update!!! I'll be surprised if the update ever comes, but they will keep saying that it will come in an update. It seems that the KB37 is a midi controller so it should not be that hard to implement midi on the POD toneport or studio products?? Also, they have it for the Gearbox, what's so hard and taking sooooooo much time to implement it for the toneport and studio products??? The products everyone expected it to be on. When they introduced these products was it not realized that this should have been a norm this type of product, as well as foot control????
What should be done is a revamp of the product to include midi control, foot control (for wah, dive bomb, and other effects), and keep the momentary and latch controls to move about the POD Farm software. The foot control and midi functionality would contribute to hands free operation and really make a kickass recording product when combined with the incredible tones produced by POD Farm, either stand alone or Plug in. Right now I have tried the Gearbox solution, but the tones seem thin when compared to POD Farm. I hope this helps in giving direction to the Line 6 product department that has heard endlessly about this. A new product upgrade wth a trade in policy would make many hundreds, if not thousands, of Line 6 users extremely happy.
Also, as you can see the Line 6 response was from October 2009 saying stay tuned over the next couple of months. This is now February 2010 and 4 months have passed, last I knew a couple was 2??? This seems to be he standard answer to the midi question either a couple of months or the next update. As I have said this have been going on for over 2 years!!!
