Stereo to 6165 Pedal - analysis

[thindave]

Hey all, so I finally for my EB stereo cable and I've got it hooked up to the Albert Lee now. My setup is:

EBMM Albert Lee w/ piezo
----- EB Stereo Cable
---------- EB 6165 Stereo/Pan Pedal
--------------- Line 6 PodXT Live
--------------- Yamaha Acoustic Magicstomp
-------------------- Bose PAS

It's great! I don't detect any loss from the 6165 up front, and aside from a slight bleed from the piezo to the magnetic side, things are just swell (the Axis exhibits this bleed-through as well, so maybe it's the 6165?)...

Anyway, a few folks were asking how it worked, and there you go...

What do you think of the Bose system? Do you still use a traditional amp anymore? I just got the PODxt Live two weeks ago, so I'm still in learning mode. So far, I use the effects in front of my MESA F-100 combo and its working out great. I'm going JP7 out via EB Stereo cable to the EB Splitter Box. Magnetic pickups to PODxt Live into the front of my F-100, and Piezo straight into a Crate CAC30DG. I think it sounds great, super-versatile, and very much plug 'n play.

I've decided not to mess with pedalboards anymore. Too much hassle and expense for me. I'll still use individual pedals at home/record, but not lug tons of them around. The PODxt pretty much covers it.

I like the volume pedal built into the PODxt, did you try it? Did you buy the extra model paks to use with your Bose? If so, are they worth it? Thanks and congrats on your rig.
