Change Amp Channel With Hd500x

[jeffosaure]

Hello all,

 

I'm french and my english not very good 

I try to tell u what I want to do

 

I want to use my bank preset ex : Bank 12 with some effect on different Patch : 12A, 12B, 12C et 12D and in same time I want than I pull on this pactche that change my amp channel

 

Exemple : When I pull on my 12A preset (with HD500X reverb) I want my amp channel switch automaticly on my clean amp channel

                When I pull on my 12B preset (with HD500X chorus) I want my amp channel switch automaticly on my lead amp channel

etc...

It's possible ?

 

I have a midi footswitch controler AMT FS2 and I have programed on prg change 1 =clean and prg change 6 = lead

 

But I don't find a solution

 

I'm not sure I was clear

You've made yourself very clear; your English is better than you think!

 

It depends on your amp. You need to find out what MIDI commands your amp will respond to for changing channels, and then add this command to your HD500x preset using the MIDI Assign page in HD500x Edit (or directly on the HD500x device).

 

Then when you select the preset this command will be sent from the HD500x MIDI Out port. Connect the MIDI Out port either directly to your amp's MIDI In port, or your AMT FS2 MIDI In port (in which case you need to connect your AMT FS2 MIDI Out/Through port to your amp).

Thx Uber Guru

 

My connecting is ok and i can change my channels amp with my footswicht controler 

But I can't programming my POD HD500X

 

When I hold the MOVE button on my POD I can assign: 

1: channel 1 

2: message : prog change

3: PROG # : 001

on every FS

 

The message is ok between POD and my footswith controller

But when I back to my preset (after saved) nothing happen when I switch on every Patches

I think I do not know how to program the POD HD500X

[silverhead]

The procedure for using the HD500x device as a general MIDI controller is described in the HD500x Advanced Guide in Appendix B, in the subsection titled "Using POD HD500 as a MIDI Controller Device".

 

You could also try using HD500x Edit. I think the procedure is more clear using the editor.

I ever do that but it doesn't work

I'm having the same issue.

 

The manual says pedals FS5-FS8 will only transmit if the POD is set to "Pedal Board" Mode. If this was the case then using a "Preset" to trigger a midi message for amp switching won't work. And this is exactly what I want to do too. And have been unable to.

 

Also the EDIT software doesn't save the midi settings when I change them and save the patch. I have to use the interface on the pedal to successfully change and store midi settings

 

If there IS a way to send a midi message on the transition to a Patch, when in Patch Mode, please let me know. I'm sending from an POD HD500X to a Voodoo Labs Controller-Switcher, THX
