Line 6 Hd500x
-
Hello there, I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I have an Hd500x but really appreciate the sonic qualities of Bias over Pod HD or Helix for that matter. Having said that, I'm not prepared to buy a Bias Head if I can't load it up with with my tones and chains from Bias FX. Another $1000 or so to get the pedals just puts it out of my financial reach at this point. I want to try to control bias FX with the hardware I already have, the Hd500x, in the stand alone mode or through Logic or Mainstage. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me.

The short answer is yes to all, except Mainstage. Search over youtube or internet, there're some tutorials about how to control DAW (Live, Cubase) and hardware (Kemper), using HD500. For more information, try these:
