loaked Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 I just got the POD HD PRO X last night and spent a few hours playing with it and trying to hook it up properly. I watched some you tube vids and looked through quite a few forum posts but maybe what I am wanting to do is not possible? I am hooking this up to a Blackstar HT40 tube combo amp with an FX loop. I want to be able to use the preamp/knobs on the front of the Blackstart to change channels, use the ISF eq, regular eq etc. I want to use the distortion/drive stomps on the POD and have those go in before the Blackstar preamp. I want to use the FX like delay, reverb, etc from the POD through the Blackstar FX loop. I tried what is called the 4 cable method and it ends up putting both distortion/OD stomps and effects all through the FX loop and the knobs and such on the front of the Blackstar don't do anything other than the reverb and master volume. I bought the POD to replace my pedal board all together, and I want it to function just like a standard pedal board. Distortion/OD before the Blackstar preamp and effects in the FX loop without loosing the preamp on the Blackstar. Is this possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaked Posted January 10, 2017 Author Share Posted January 10, 2017 Ah ok I think I found my problem, thank you for the link! I believe I must have crossed a couple of the connections between the pod fx loop and the amp fx loop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
