POD HD500 fx loop with other pedals

[orkanobi]

Hi, I have a two channel overdrive/distortion pedal that I want to use live with my POD HD500. I don't use POD amp sim. I figured out how to connect POD to a combo amp using the 4 cable method. Now I wonder if it's possible to achieve this signal chain:

 

Guitar-->POD Boost Comp-->My OD pedal-->POD Chorus-->Combo Amp-->POD Delay-->POD Reverb.

 

Can this be done with the 4 (possibly more) cable method? Or some other way? I want to use the boost comp to drive the OD pedal a little more when I need to. Any help would be great!

Why even use the PODHD ?  What you're doing is like using a T.V. as a radio.  Yes you can do that but Line6 sells an FX box for people not wanting amp sims.

Yes you can do it with the 4CM. In fact sometimes I do the same when playing live, (using a Tube screamer, OCD, angry charlie...) BUT, I still use the AMP sims, and this combination is what makes my sound interesting. In the POD's chain, I place the FX loop before the AMP when using Stomp boxes.
