Mesa Titan V12 and SansAmp RBI/PSA

Hi Justin, first off thank you for your priceless tutelage and sharing of experience on here for all of us that dream to get to your level! I was wondering if you ever had your Mesa Titan and SansAmp PSA chained together as part of a certain rig? What I am looking to do is keep channel 1 of the Titan to certain specs and clean but then have a choice to engage the SansAmp(in my case the RBI) on channel 2. I love the overdrive choices on the titan itself, but find the RBI my choice for grit. If anyone else would know how i can accomplish this, id greatly appreciate it. Im wondering if i would need a totally seperate ground controller for this. Thanks again, and hope to see you again at Januarys NAMM
 
Do you think I'd need a switcher in the rack and ground control switcher or could i achieve this with an a/b type box or a radial bassbone persay?

If I understand the Titan V12 manual correctly the amp has a built in A/B selector. Clever feature. I'm not sure which of our products you have as there is no RBI/PSA. If you are using the RBI which has a direct out you would just plug into the RBI first and take the out of that to Channel 2 of the Mesa and send the uneffected out of the RBI to channel 1 of the Mesa.
 
AH HA!!! I did end up doing that last night after I cleared my head a bit, and YES, (with the footswitch of course)they work fluidly and fantastically! Thanks again for the input guys! I'll tell ya, the RBI is a great piece of equipment and I have the VTBass, another great product! Much props to Tech21!
