new to owning a mesa and this forum. just bought a mesa nomad 100 was wondering if i can mod the amp to allow external on off switching of the effects loop
the rocktron is not midi controllable i would like to have a 1/4 inch jack on the back to either use an external switch or plug into a midi switcher or the back of my gt-10 witch has a amp switch controll function. it also wouldnt bother me if i could replace my solo function on my footswitch to turn the loop on or off. but would rather have the 1/4 inch jack on my amp

The supplied microprocessor runs off 5V, so you could easily tweak the circuit to run on 5V instead of 9V (prob just eliminate & bypass the voltage regulator), then tap voltage off the amp's pilot lamp (6.3V) & rectify to DC.
Stick the board inside the chassis & add a 1/4 jack for your footswitch or MIDI interface.
I've used these as-is to build remote loop boxes for friends and they work great!
