Hi ppl,
like many other ppl here I'm an ex-L6er now converted to the wanderfull Axe.
I've used the HD500 as a midi-pedalboard in a gig to control the Axe. All Ok.
But my old Vetta HD+long FBV floorboard rig is in a corner covered of dust.
I've read about some projects of converters for converts the L6 floorboad language to midi but seem an hard way.
Now I'm thinking about recycling the old hardware.
The basic idea is:
why built an all new converter (with all the language probs involved) when the midi section of the Vetta can just do it for us?
I'm thinking about hacking and cracking the old Vetta separating things to get 2 sub-systems:
a) the floorboard-to-midi section (think all the stuff can fit in a cigarette box)
b) the powerful (130 watt x channel) power amp section (with a line IN and power OUT path) for run 2 (real) 4x12 Marshall cabs in stereo
If I think about combining all things together I can imagine that can fits in a lightweight coockiebox.
What do you thing about this idea? Anyone interested? Well I need some skills and knowledge from someone!
