Pod XT Live

I have a Pod XT Live and want to use it to control guitar rig. I can see Logic recognizing it's midi signal (via usb) but cannot "learn" in GR3.

I spoke with Native Instruments and they said I have to disable the Pod in Logic. So basically, they said, the problem is Logic.

Any thoughts? I didn't see anything in the forums...

Yeah. I guess NI wants you to buy their little add on. Pod XT is a midi controller. NI said something about external controlled effects in Logic. So. How to control an effect plugin with an external midi controller.. ANYONE?

In plugin Mode, Guitarrig doesn´t learn in Logic - you need to activate the automation in your track and assign it correctly !!!

- Select your track, activate automation.
- In the track, select the parameter you want to control via midi.
- Now open Setup - Automation in Logic and press learn to
assign the button / pedal - that's it
- Now you can activate the automation with read, write, ...
- Also checkout the Logic manual concerning this topic !!

I am using a Zoom C5.1t Interface /Controller to steer my plugins.

With POD X3 Live i often got strange information in the learned Midi´s
and had to adjust manually - especially the Pedal in POD X3 Live is Strange...

Hope this helps,

Heiko

Thanks for the reply. I was actually wanting to change patches and turn on/off effects with the pedal. I called Line 6 and they told me that the pedal is not designed to actually send midi out in a way that is compatible with plugins.

So. I don't think it works
