I’m using a friend’s 6505+ head at our shared jam room and it sounds monstrous with my 2x12 EV 12L cab. I’m looking to make it even more gooder with a Boss GE-7 in the loop but my friend got the amp used without the footswitch.
Is there a way to engage the loop without the proprietary footswitch? I’m not looking to toggle it on/off - I’d prefer to leave it always on.
Thanks.

Re: 6505+ loop without footswitch
Without the footswitch, the loop should automatically be always on.

Bump from the grave.
After several attempts with different pedals, cables and power sources, I can confirm that the effects loop is not active without the footswitch. My other guitarist also has a 6505+ and will have his footswitch with him at practice tomorrow Looking forward to trying it with the amp I’m using. Fingers crossed it doesn’t need a repair. Really want to run my new MXR 10 band EQ in the loop.

Grabbed an HQRP copy of the 6505+ footswitch off Amazon and it’s on its way to me. Should do the trick.

I bought the same footswitch for a 5150 II and I am pleased with it.
