srv900 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Hi! I recently bought a mxr chorus pedal and i want to know how can it be connected to my amp (it has fx loop) and my hd-500..Can the pedal be activated from the pod? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tochiro Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 It can be activated from the Pod if you put it in the insert loop of the Pod. You can then assign the loop to a foot switch of the pod. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moondancer Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 why do you use an additional chorus, when you use the hd? This means more cables, additional power supply, more noise in signal path, because the hd had to switch d/a, a/d! The hd 500 provides anything you need. Just my 2 cents.

jstock Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I can understand this, to be frank I think that both the Flanger and Chorus FX on the HD500 are lacking to be honest. I own a MXR chorus - which is great - but do I hook it up to the POD? - Well no because when I gig with the POD I want a quick set up and tear down and so work the best I can with the inferior modulation FX available on the POD. I have said this many times but I honestly don't think the punters can tell the difference as long as your sound is close to decent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
