destroythevoice Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Hey guys, so I was doing a little research after seeing TesseracT play live the other night... Noticed that no one had a pedalboard. All of their effects were directly automated through the computer using whatever DAW that was up and it was automated as the song went on... Seeing as the POD 500x is similar in most ways to the way the Axe FX runs.. (They were using Axe FX) I was wondering if its possible to do this as well utilizing the midi output cable maybe? Dir en grey as well have done something like this at all of their shows... But except doing research on them... I've seen that they actually have used the POD... Not sure which one it is. That or they have someone in the back pushing all the effects for them but I feel like that'd be completely ridiculous. Anyone know if this is possible?

I would presume that it is possible, Garbage uses the rackmounted HD's, and does the same thing, so does Periphery with their backing tracks and click, with their Fractal units. Being that the 500X is in the HD family, I would presume it would be possible, I just haven't personally explored it.
