Anyone know where to buy Mesa Dual Rec footswitch cables online? O_o

[GreyWolf]

Sadly.. this thread is simple enough.

I've been searching high and low and can't find a mesa dealer around my area.. and I need one of the cables that connects my footswitch to my Mesa head.

Anyone have any idea of what styled cable it is.. or where I can get it?

Been searching like a madman!

Pretty sure it's just a standard 7-pin MIDI cable dude! e.g.

not sure of that dude... I've lost my Mesa Dual Rec in some gig and I've tried with a 7-pin cable but it didn't worked...

I've asked to a dealer if any 7-pin midi cable would do the job with my Mesa but he replied: "Sorry but no, Mesa makes the wiring different from standard midi cables so they won't work with a standard one"

well.. he actually replied in italian, but the meaning was almost the same!

if someone has some tips or info about it it would be cool!

Wow, that's really stupid - I shouldn't be surprised from Mesa though! Jared, I guess your best bet would be to call Mesa!

I'm confused, my dual rec just has standard 1/4" switching for Red and Green (er orange) channels and that's all (that I see). I'm not even sure if you can switch the effects loop on/off on mine with a foot switch.

Honestly, doesn't matter though because I don't gig with it.

Yeah, he has a 3 channel Loren, the 2 channels are just 1/4" plugs (on the back or front)

Have you ever looked into getting a 5150 foot switch!!! I was told that it would be in the vicinity of a little over $60 because they don't make them anymore.


I would have done $60 if the switch wasn't plastic and simple to build. I don't need one anymore though.

use a marshall/mesa one channel f/s and insert it half way in, or insert it all the way and pull it out one click.
I saved you lots of money and you didnt have to buy an overpriced tupperware box.
