Line 6 pod go as a midi controller

[titi-mamitiana]

Can i use the Line 6 POD GO as a midi controller ? 

I want to send some midi signals to another pedal from the pod go. Is that possible ? I know midi in is possible but how about midi out to other devices ?

For instance : i have a pod go pedal and a big sky reverb pedal. Whenever i change presets (or snapshot) on the pod go, i'd like to send some midi signals to the big sky so that it loads a specific preset on it.
I don't want to hit some switch on the pod and then having to hit some switch on the big sky.

POD Go can only send MIDI PC commands, and only when you switch presets. There’s a global setting that controls whether or not it does that. So I think theoretically as long as your Big Sky preset (program) numbers are synchronized with your POD Go PC numbers you should be able to do that, assuming your Big Sky accepts incoming midi over usb. Not sure how you would make the usb connections work though.
 

For further details consult the manual.

And what about a HX stomp instead of the Pod Go ?

The best bet to get the sort of detail you need is to download the HX Stomp/StompXL manual and read the MIDI section.
