Marshall 6100 30th Anniversary MIDI Control

[Jesse Segovia]

Hello, everyone! It looks like I'll soon be the owner of a 6100, an amp I've wanted to own for years. Unfortunately, I'm not getting the foot switch with it so if I play out with it I'll have to figure out some way of switching its channels through MIDI. I believe my Line 6 M-13 sends out CCs with each patch change so I think I can use it to control the 6100 but I wanted to ask this: the only thing on the 6100 I can change through MIDI is the channel, right? I can't change the Mode for any given channel or reverb or anything else, correct?

Is anyone using a MIDI Controller or another FX unit as a controller with the 6100? Can anyone give me the benefit of their experience?

Thanks very much!

Jesse

Yes, channel switching only.
Modes and other push button channel options are not MIDI controlled.
Reverb?

Most midi controllers that operate on omni mode channel 1 should work.
