seratone Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Can anyone explain how to get the HD500 expression pedal to control the Drive Level of a particular Amp model - using the editor? (not the knobs on the top of the unit) I know this can be done - but there appears to be nowhere online that explains how. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seratone Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 That didn't work - I went to controllers and set it up this way: Model=Brit J-800, Parameter=drive, FS Assign=EXP TOE SWITCH, CONTROLLER=EXP-1. Minimum 17%, Maximum=27% (these settings are 'White' on the controller page). I also tried adding a volume/pan pedal after the mixer to the effects...no go - could my HD 500 possible have a defective expression pedal?

seratone Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 I also calibrated the peadal using these instructions : http://line6.com/support/page/kb/_/pod/pod-hd500-hd500x/pod-hd500xhd500-pedal-calibration-r161 When I set the expression pedal as I did the the post above - as soon as I depress the exp pedal to it's maximum - its entry in the controller section dissappears.

seratone Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 I tried EXP2 as well as EXP1 - same reaction - the entry disappears.... Should I NOT have the FS ASSIGN set to EXP TOE SWITCH? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfsmith0 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Also, don't use the EXP while you're still in the Controller screen or you'll just change your edits. Move back to the FX tab and try it there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seratone Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 Getting results! Thanks - Now it seems the gain increase only happens in the very last 1/4 inch the the Expression Pedal - more like switch a boost on than a gradual increase. I can tweak that. Again, thanks folks!
