Recall Previous Preset on Source Collider?

I have a solo page dedicated to all my solo patches on my PBC 6 with dedicated Delays and Reverbs on those patches. What I want to do is make a button that takes me back to my previous preset (already got that part figured out) that I was at before I went to my solo patch, and I want it to also take me back to my previous preset on my Source Collider. The problem is I don't want to include a specific Source Collider preset to a preset in the PBC because I like to pick and choose what delay and reverb I'm using outside of the preset I'm using on the PBC. Is there a way were I can tell the the PBC to recall the previous preset on my Source Collider? Let me know if this makes sense because I may have not explained it thoroughly haha...

I've attached my PBC File below

There's a special value "Prev" that you can use in a PC action to send the previously selected PC message to a device.
 
I just tried that and it's not working with the collider. In my experience, I've only ever had success changing the preset on the source collider using CC's. Maybe I'm missing something? I'll attach what I did and maybe you can see where the problem is. I'm doing this on Page 11 of the Buttons tab on the "Exit" Button

The Collider has a problem in that, once it receives a program change, it won't respond to any other MIDI messages for a short period of time. You're changing presets on the Mastermind, which is causing a bunch of MIDI messages to be sent. If the Collider receives a PC, then the previous PC, the second one might be ignored.

Note: This was the case some years ago, I don't know if they ever fixed it. But, the symptoms sure sound like this is still the case.

If you temporarily remove the System / Preset action on that button, does the Collider switch back to the previous preset when you press it?

Also look out for IA buttons that can Send on Preset Change turned on. When you change presets on the Mastermind, every IA button on every page that has Send on Preset Change turned on will send its messages. This could definitely cause problems if you're not expecting it.
 
Ok just edited and toggled off all the "Send on Preset Change". I also removed the System / Preset action and the Collider didn't respond to the PC message.

Do you have a MIDI equipped computer? If so, you could try sending PC messages from the computer to see if the pedal does, in fact, respond to PCs.
 
Ok, I will look into this. I believe I can do this with Logic Pro correct? I'm researching now on how to achieve this.
Logic Pro and MainStage can do it. There's also a free program in the App Store, Pocket MIDI, that's a good tool for sending and receiving MIDI messages.
 
Ok I believe I may have hooked up my Source Collider to Logic Pro correctly. The pedal does get signal when I change the PC on Logic but it does not change presets when I change the PC. So as far as I can tell, the Source Collider does not respond to PC messages.
