I'm pretty sure that once you get everything plugged in, you have 8 switches that can be configured to any pedal combination you like.

Yes, I love having the Pod HD500X. It was a learning curve to get it hooked up an working with the Marshall though, but I got it figured out. I still have all my pedals, just keep them in a drawer. It seems every few years I want to go all analog, but the deciding factor for me was because of the exact issue you are having with your pedals.
I was either going to have to get one of these units or bite the bullet and learn how to bypass all the preamps in the Line 6 and only use it's effects in the effects loop of my amp. I also liked the Pod because it is a great stand-alone unit. It's a little more expensive at $500. Here's the thread in which I like to pull all my hair out trying to understand the process... https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...showtopic=51483 I guess for anything, whether Mutli-FX pedals or something like the Octa-Switch unit you're going to have to spend at least $300, I haven't found a way around that. Even a smaller Line 6 or Boss is $30o on the low end. Good luck though. Finding the right FX for you and how to incorporate them into your set-up is as much of a never ending process as learning guitar is. This post has been edited by Spock: Jun 9 2014, 08:38 PM |

I guess the hard work is in setting up how you want it for max results. It certainly seems to me that you are getting the most out of it. I am an analogue girl i suppose. Thats why I had to ask about the loop switcher. It all seems like witchcraft to me.Anyway I wont be getting one anytime soon now, my hubby got towed back home today due to the radiator blowing out in the car That's an unexpected bill we could do without. DAMMIT!! -------------------- |

Hi Becca, there is a cheaper option by joyo, and I heard good things from them. I have some Joyo pedals and do their job very well.
