Hey fellas

I just grabbed a Friedman 1530 loaded with ALL the goodies. All of that is fabulous, but while the purchase is in transit, I became curious if the 7-pin DIN on the buffer bay will allow the Mesa footswitch to function through it. I know the footswitch isn't actually MIDI, it just employs the 7-pin config.

I recently had a nice compact Mesa controller built by FX Doctor (to replace the one that's the size of Nebraska) and if the signal could run through that MIDI port without actually being a MIDI signal, that would be pretty boss.

Anyone have experience with that? Seems like something Dr. Friedman would have thought of.
 
Well, there you have it.
Thank you Gohonic and of course, Dr. Friedman.
I'll give it a go and report back to base.

It's a great design, that 1530. Wish I'd had that thing when I was playing large venues.

It appears the board is designed to accommodate a second power grid. How handy that turns out to be as I crammed in 12 pedals plus the buffer bay. I wonder if anyone has ever attached their old Pedal Power 2 to handle to overflow.
