    USE

    Use:

    Effectively replaces a preamp. The power amp section is simulated and out line level, hence the importance of having an amp for proper sound level within the group. Personally I use it with a behringer power amp and 2 JBsystem speakers.
    The manual is helpful First the startup, but not necessary knowing anyone turning and pressing buttons. Then it's the POD so if you already have a touch Pocket POD or 2.0, nothing changes.
    Small precision, midi-USB adapter and Line 6 Edit, and everything becomes even simpler and more for prcis edition sounds.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Sound quality:

    The good, all depends on the ear. The simus amp and speakers are very good quality despite the almost ten year output of the unit. Coupled with FBS shortboard it worked wonders. Sounds clear sound clear, hi-gain are surly ... almost infinite number of simulation and implementation part 2 or 3 couplings do not do (or for fun, a deluxe twin reverb with a line6 4 * 12. ..) all sounds great, Bob Marley Panthera ZZ Top Killswitch Engage ...

    NOTICE GLOBAL

    Global opinion:

    Great stuff, reliable, sturdy (several falls and a truck accident), tench (well no but he survived a very large storm without ever cutting not even a fraction of a second), it is the ideal companion. I craqu above the era because I did not need to lug my big, heavy amp, and I could tune in to the mixer keyboard or the room where we played.
    If he licks me, I again direct (around 100 in Cygnus). Yes I know, by now there is the HD, but I do not care of the 10 possibilities unnecessary supplmentaire rglages.

    A very versitile unit. Lots of effects and sound modeling capabilities. There are endless ways to connect it various equipment each giving different advantages. I currently run in live mode with the PA outs feeding my mixer and the power amp outputs into the stereo fx loop of my marshall AVT275 (I run the two stereo outputs from the marshall to my mixer also). The sound can be tricky to set up because the two OD's can get really muddy and ugly. I use the unprocessed guitar out to feed my korg tuner and then it goes out to another mixer channel. I use it to blend in a little clean tone under my heavy distortion for some incredible deep rich heavily overdriven tones or sweet fat clean sounds. I play everything from classical to thrash so I needed the versatility of this unit.

    The software controll is kind of cumbersome and it took a lot of practice and patients to get the sounds I was looking for. The Sound Diver software can be kind of a pain to connect and get working with the Pod unit also. The on/off switch of the floor boards wah had to be adjusted because it didn't work. Also, several of the knobs and buttons and jacks were loose and had to be tightened up right out of the box. I was also missing the CD. For the money I spent on this system I would think thier quality control could do a little better job.

    Once everything was tightened up and adjusted to work it seems to be pretty durable. I haven't had it on the road yet so I don't know for sure how well it will hold up. I don't have much doubt about the Pod Rack unit but I do have some about the floorboard accessary. A few really good rowdy nights will tell...

    It looks cool and sounds great after you set it up and tweak all the settings to your liking but that can be very time consuming. Overall a great unit but the price of the unit and the footboard together is pushing a grand and I would have liked a little more for that much money.

    I bought the unit in a music store in Utrecht, The Netherlands about one and a half year ago, in february 2001. I paid 1600 guilders whis is about 700 dollars. More expensive than in America, yes, but hey... It's a long swim to Europe, ya know!

    This is the lowdown on the Pod Pro, these three things: great sound, great versatility and good solid build.

    The presets are all quite metaly or very very country-sounding, but once you get to combine your amps with cabs and FX, you get these really YUMMY tones, which can be fantasticly lifelike or very, very interesting. With 32 amp models and 15 speaker cabs to choose from, there's 480 combinations to make so you won't get bored that quickly. …

    This is the lowdown on the Pod Pro, these three things: great sound, great versatility and good solid build.

    The presets are all quite metaly or very very country-sounding, but once you get to combine your amps with cabs and FX, you get these really YUMMY tones, which can be fantasticly lifelike or very, very interesting. With 32 amp models and 15 speaker cabs to choose from, there's 480 combinations to make so you won't get bored that quickly.

    The classic combinations are good (like the plexi with the 4x12 greenback cab for that Blackmore sound, it's as close to the original as it gets!) but try some 'odd' combinations and you'll be astounded! For instance, a VOX AC30 over any of the 4x12s will sound INCREDIBLE, especially when using clean sounds on the verge of overdrive. Or that little Fender Deluxe amp on full blast over the Line6 2x12 cab, that sounds EXACTLY like Kravitz' sound on 'Mama said'.

    I use the POD live on stage through a 2x100W Crown PA amp into 2 Hughes&Kettner Attax 112 Pro 1x12 Thiele cabs. It sounds really good, although it can be a hassle matching the different amp/cab combos in volume. I use the floorboard too, which is nice but a little bulky and, to be honest, bloody expensive! But it's a killer combination, and the wah on the floorboard sounds really good for rock and blues jobs.

    In recording I use the Pod Pro's digital out straight into a Yamaha digital console. It sounds perfect! You can check the soundbites on http://www.the-music-of-us.com for that!

    I play a G&L Legacy Special and this proves to be a good choice. Most amps let the guitar sound ring through really nicely, so plug a shitty guitar into this thing and that'll be exactly what you hear. The Matchless emulation (my personal favourite) has guitar tone coming through even at full blast with OD and compression at max. Brilliant!

    There's a couple of things I'd like to see changed. The price of the floorboard for one, although I love the way it's connected (throught one single UTP network cable!) and the optical controls on the wah & vol.

    But these are things to look into, Line6:
    - Some amp combo's are much, much louder than others. I know that's this is the most realistic, but it's hardly practical.
    - Some options are only accessible through midi, but I'd like to see these editable from the panel. Especially: vol pedal pre/post preamp, reverb type and noise gate threshold.

    The thing is built really sturdily. I've been using it on the road for one and a half year and it hasn't failed me yet (knock on wood). I've built it into an SKB case, of course.

    The red anodized aluminium front panel scratches a bit easily, but hey... Nothing lasts forever. It's well-built enough, with switches and connectors of good brands (Neutrik for instance).
    The floor board is equally well-built and will last for ages, I'm sure. Like I said earlier, the wah and vol are optical controls, so no need to carry contact cleaner around.

    In short: I really, really like the Pod Pro. It works perfectly in the studio as well as on stage, although you need a whole new set of patches for that, so get yourselves a midi cable and install SoundDiver!

    So, bottom line: Very, very nice piece of equipment, and I can really recommend it to any guitar player, pro or amatuer. Inspite of some minor flaws I'll give it a five out of five.

    This was a demo unit that I bought for around $800 Canadian

    I really like the versitility of the models once you really dig in and edit them to your liking.

    I wish there was more memory locations to save your edits.

    Excellent build quality- solid!

    Although it took me a while to find my tone with this unit I am very satisfied with it now.

    Paid around $600 for this unit from Musician's Friend on the web. I already had the POD (1st revision) and was looking for more functionality in a rack mountable unit for my live rig.

    What's not to like!? The POD Pro has significantly more models and choices than the regular POD and conveniently slips into my Quik Lok rack system. The sound quality is top notch and the amp models are so believeable it even turns the head of some vintage freaks I know that turn their noses up at all the new digital equipment.

    There's really nothing I don't like. Other than the additional modeling selections, etc. this unit doesn't really have much over the POD. It might have been cheaper for me to just use…

    There's really nothing I don't like. Other than the additional modeling selections, etc. this unit doesn't really have much over the POD. It might have been cheaper for me to just use my POD and get one of the floorboard controllers - which you would have needed anyway, but nevertheless I'm glad I purchased it.

    Quality and construction are first rate. A strong metal housing provides drop safety, although if mounting in a rack you shouldn't run into that situation much. Still roadies sometimes bang things around when setting up, this unit can take anything. The knobs and controls are all a high quality feel and will take years of road abuse.

    I think for around $600 you get one sweet unit that will allow you to put together just about any sound / amp model or cabinet combo you can think of. These days, I'm running more and more of the mix through the PA and the POD Pro is where it's at if this is how you set your rig up for playing live.

    To be frank, I took this unit out on apro, with no real intention of buying it. (I hope Coastal Music doesn't read this). The Idea was to use it for a recording project, and take it back. I couldn,t take it back, however hard I tried. It's too darned good. I'm from South Africa, and our exchange rate against the dollar makes this unit EXPENSIVE. Our rand is worth about $9, and I paid 7000 of our Rand. Please work it out for yourself- it's too depressing for me!

    Killer sounds. It works great plugged straight into your soundcard, into your guitar amp or into a recording or live desk. I used it a couple of times at outdoor concerts with the local symphony orchestra, and the sound-man came over to tell me the guitar sounded great, and he didn't have to do a thing to the sound once it was plugged in. It wasn't even D.I.d- he just treated it like a mic. Great looks. It really brings a sparkle to your rack. It's easy to change settings at a gig, as the front panel looks and acts like a normal guitar amp. If you don't yet know what the Pod Pro does (where have you been)? it models 32 guitar amps in software. Being pretty ancient now, I tried to simulate the sounds of the bands I remember from the 60's. I managed a Shadows tone that would have had their lead guitarist Hank B. Marvin asking "Is that me?". It was much closer to his sound than I ever managed on my genuine 60's Vox AC30.
    Likewise the twin reverb simulation is stunning, and as good in most ways as the real thing (I had one). And you don't have to worry about the bias! On their website they have a large number of simulations that are quickly downloaded in a winzip format. Although you can set up most sounds from the front panel, software is supplied that makes setting up sounds easier, and of course you can store as many tones as you like. There is a full range of inputs and outputs, and you should find everything you're ever going to need.

    The file names of downloaded sounds don't tell you what they are, and it's a major head-ache sorting them out and re-naming them. The effects, tho of good quality, are a bit basic. I would have liked a multi-tap delay, for example. F.X. combinations are provided, but there's no way to choose your own.

    Housed in solid metal, this thing is pretty rugged. Mine has been subjected to a lot af abuse over the year that I've had it(I use it for eserything), and there's not a mark on it! However, the display on mine has been faulty from the start. All the inputs and outputs are first rate. The tone controls etc. are good looking and as smooth as glass. I've never been stupid enough to open the thing up, so internal construction is a mystery to me. Having said that, my Pod has never glitched or let me down- which is more than I can say for my computer, which has stayed in the same place and I've had for about the same length of time. Thanks, Bill.

    Don't EVER try this thing if you don't have the money to buy it. The need to have it may well cause you to sell one or more of your children. You have been warned. Seriously, this and a great F.X. unit- and, of course a great guitar or three, will give you everything you'll ever need for a huge range of killer sounds. Of course that's until the next great modeller comes along!

I like how each function has a knob, so no screen is required. The manual is required reading due to all the ways this box can be set up, but it's not too deep to just dive in and get some good tones out of it.

    SOUND QUALITY

    This sounds pretty good. Not fantastic, but pretty good.. It sounds a bit better live than recorded, although the sound isn't bad. Newer models of Line 6 products and other companies have made giant strides in improving the sound quality of modeled amps, so I can't give this one top marks in comparison to those units. The effects are decent - the verbs and delays are nice - and the amp models are useable. The Treadplate sound is the go-to distorted sound on this rack unit, and the clean settings are pretty good.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I'm giving this an 8 overall. I like how simple it is to dial in a working, usable tone, and also how easy it is to route for direct in recording or straight to a PA. This is a little Swiss Army box, and if you can find one for cheap and have some extra cash lying around, this would make an excellent back up preamp to any rack system, just in case your main pre blows up. Also, this would make just a good all-around processor for a budget studio. This is certainly worth it if it can be found under $150.

    the edition is as a receiver, we drive RULES buttons etc ... presets are not INTERESTED forcment adapted the guitar to the user, then make alterations. can also tlecharger sound of the programs on the site, ideal when a search its all done, shooting an album of SRV for example ...

    SOUND QUALITY

    The range of simulated amp is large enough so I can not say if all the Ralite match. going from light to a saturated through the crunch. trsralistes some others less so. adpend I think the guitar is used and the fawn which it is used. ultimately it comes down 2, 3 we have chosen sounds, corrected, approved. spending time (something I have not done so) I think we can learn good things from trs.
    the effects are of good quality the trs Submitted stro well, a really adds something to the sound of departure. nothing to do with the poor spring reverb amps. the whawha is really excellent (it can programer curve in midi via a squence)

    OVERALL OPINION

    The +: the effects choosing wide receiver, connector.
    the -: all sounds are not at the top, it is best to use it with several guitars. between mono guitar.
    I think we can touch 4500 bullets for the price so there's no much wrong. IDAL for the home studio o can not make his guitar scream on a real amp ...
    if c'tait again, with his little j'hsiterais ERRF the bean-shaped pod cheaper but without the digital and XLR connectors that I do not ultimately as a! possde especially when a small sound card that is difficult to synchronize with the pod (we hear plays from time to time during the catch). it is the same part in his great ERRF.

    A publisher of PC comes with ... However, it has an unfortunate tendency to plant with my Systm, and the connection of two MIDI ncessaire is ... suddenly, I do not use it. It's a shame, because sharing sites rglages can change files used with the Pod. I would really the problem ... RULES

    In terms of connectivity, we particulirement gt with the Pod pro, with AES / SBU, analog outputs, an effects loop, and especially an SP / DIF

    You can of course use it with a pdalier noon, optional (Line 6) or other
    It is, as the photo suggests, a version 19 '2 units ...

    UTILIZATION

    Nothing is easier than edit a sound with the Pod Pro! : We choose the p'tit amp, a speaker type (you can also bypass the speaker type), we add the effect you want ... and much sr is the param RULES tres drive, legalization, volume output ...
    Only thing not really practical use ncessaire hold the button to select some amps, some paramtres (including output volume numrique) MODEL and the speaker (would it t no more sense to direct The models available speaker rather than the effects??)

    In terms of amps, you should know the assay paramtres (drive, bass ...) depends on the type of amp select.

    The presets are honntes, without being fabulous (except those in section n9!)

    The manual is adequate and allows himself even small touches of humor, always nicer than Australian type manual Roland ...

    SOUND QUALITY

    We arrive in the heart of the matter:
    yes, simulated amp (I use them even if not all) are really ... aaah ... fabulous ... and especially for use in the studio (because what you hear is what is really recorded!) over the investments of micro dangerous! Live, I never tried. but it seems it's not on top of APRS what I read on the forums

    My prfrs MODELS: The Rectified 2 clean the line 6 amp and MODEL obtained with the Hold and line 6 insane (the clean of it is really great!)

    I use it with an Ibanez Sabre S540FM (team of paf pro and tonzone), and with good old loop GX700 (the coup, I use the section not really effect the Pod) and input I sometimes try e A helping boost pedals with a boss MT-2, to give a little more attack

    I do not know the original amps and I could not compare them with simulations ... but the simulations are all the same good quality of trs. Line 6 MRIT its really reputable.

    However, I am a strong bump in the medium, and Rectified and consors The models, one is sometimes tempted to push a little more saturation ... o the usefulness of MT2 in SERIES ... I like and I ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I play a lot in the progressive directory (type Spock's Beard, flowerkings, RPWL, Porcupine Tree ...), which ncessite often a wide range of sounds .. and the pod has done everything for me!

    The pros: the quality of simulations amp / speaker in the studio, the diversity of what we can play with (you can combine any amp with any speaker type ...), the size, robustness, SPDIF output, effects loop, the whawah with trs trs pdalier really good (I still have my place to cry baby ...)

    The -: we are sometimes too, the bump in the medium that it can correct the effects section (a little light, but the pod is primarily a simulator so not shock me ...), a button hold

    I pay in USD in 4900 to The Universe last August ... I think I referrer the same choice despite the release of the pod XT (not super size and effect section that interest me ...). No problem, I referrer the same choice!

    I bought it on occasion about 6 months ago because I needed something small and not too rotten. Instead of a, I had something really compact and an unbelievable sound quality.
    The amp models really dtour Vallent.

The SETTING THE drive and eq are important and interacts bcp them which can make it difficult for the Czech newbie, quick bcp refinement possible in the collaboration of sounds. In this regard, I found the cd is frankly soundiver rat and unstable, better download the software line6 edit on the manufacturer's website in order to work its sounds the mouse to CRER sound banks .. etc. .. The line6 edit is even more hyper stable.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for a month, I still wonder why I did not do this more NVESTMENT tt, which would have allowed me to save on the purchase of hardware purchased prcedement bcp so good and reliable. I work in bcp mao and I think I find the configuration work idalie. The price is ridiculous on occasion in relation to the quality and potential of the pod, I will may be the latest version xt.

    Look at the site of line 6!

    UTILIZATION

    Configuration is very simple, jsute which is not practical is the 2nd function buttons, you have to stay press the tap and sometimes it really is not practical!
    with Line 6 Edit, it's always very simple ^ ^
    the manual is clear, it is explained

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had one month (before jOperation an xt and we feel the difference!)
    I like the sound more realistic and punchy than cold palt as pod xt!
    jaime no tempo button is boring to configure some truk ..
    I try so the xt, the vamp, the Flextone (even if c amp) but I really found my joy!
    report quality price I got a used 280 in mint condition! rather simpa c ^ ^
    I remake that choice again!

    Great first edition

    Line 6 POD ProPublished on 09/12/11 at 20:09

    I am a little biased towards all things Line6 when it comes to effects units....not amps. I have used the POD live, POD rack mount, and the XT unit. There is a common operation that flows throughout the POD series that makes effect tweaking pretty smooth and effortlessly. Once I got the first POD unit which was the live rig I learned how Line 6 tailored their units. However, this unit flows more line there floor boxes such as the DL4 or FM4. This is the first edition ad the tone of these things haven't really changed at all from generation to generation. Just tweak-ability and functionality has changed.

    I am a little biased towards all things Line6 when it comes to effects units....not amps. I have used the POD live, POD rack mount, and the XT unit.

This is the first edition ad the tone of these things haven't really changed at all from generation to generation. Just tweak-ability and functionality has changed.

    The screen isn't going to be like regular PODs where it is mostly digital screen editing. You do have a solid screen but somewhat limited if you have use the POD Pro products. You will have to twist the knobs and look where you control is to know where your at. The new POD X3 conquers this issue and is more digital screen editing. Even though you have midi capability so if using with a Ground Control Pro or some other floor midi switcher you can set up your chain of effects and click your foot control for quick on the fly present changing.

    UTILIZATION

    Both PODs for guitar feature 32 Amp Models, 16 Cab Models, Effects, & more, with A.I.R. direct outs for recording and live setups. POD Pro is the perfect POD for your rackmount system, and supports a slew of additional pro features. All POD family products feature:
    • Award winning Line 6 Amp Models that emulate an all-star collection of legendary amplifiers.
    • 36 user memory locations so that you can create your own customized collection of killer sounds. Organize them to match your set list, your session needs, or any doggone thing you want. After all, it's YOUR POD!
    • Stereo Balanced or Unbalanced 10 TRS outputs, so you can plug it into anything from your home stereo to a really expensive mixing board.
    • Separate Stereo Headphone output to keep your neighbors (or your spouse, for that matter) from staging a counterattack when you're writing that first big hit in your apartment at 3am.
    • Chromatic Tuner, because playing out of tune isn't cool.
    • Cabinet Tuning Mode. The Amp/Direct switch allows POD to be optimized for different applications. Select Direct when running POD directly into a mixer or recorder. Select Amp when using POD as a tone-shaping front end for another amp. POD delivers several tuning modes for the Amp position, selectable at power-up. For example, by default, POD products for guitar expect to be plugged into the guitar input of an open-backed combo. Other tuning modes allow POD to be optimized for connection to the power amp input of a closed-back system, or into closed-back cabinets.
    • ToneTransfer Compatibility. Line 6's ToneTransfer Web Library, is constantly expanding. The sounds you collect transfer seamlessly between POD, POD Pro, and Flextone II series amps, so wherever you go, all your sounds can make the trip.
    As if all this wasn't enough, we also include the POD Tools CD which contains:
    • Emagic™ SoundDiver™ software (PC/Mac) for expanded feature access via MIDI. You can get at additional effects parameters, do strange things with the wah functions and lots of other fun stuff..

    SOUND QUALITY

    I was using this with a Strat and a Les Paul into a Marshall JCM2000 into a vintage Marshall 4x12 with blackbacks. The effects such as delays and choruses sound fantastic! This is where I lived with this unit. Did not even bother with the amp sims. The range of delays, flangers, choruses give you most everything you will use in a recording or live situation. If you rely on mostly effects with your guitar sound then I would recommend then stepping up to an X3 or the POD Live units.

    OVERALL OPINION


    The thing I enjoyed most about this unit was the cool delay and flanger sounds. This is a unit I would use sparingly when I needed to color my natural amp tone with some delays or flanger. I would never use this to get an amp sim or sound that I did not normally have.

    The is a great intro to the POD family. They run about $200 used and online give or take. For someone who does not use effects that much or someone who would like to get started in the effect tweaking arena who is on a budget I would highly recommend them to this product. You are going to get some great tones to add to your rig for well under what most companies charge for one stomp box.

    I think Line 6 is one of the best if not the best companies out there who provide solid effect units for the all-in-one consumer who wants to keep things simple and clean. I would play this unit any day of the week. I don't use too much effects so something like this is perfect for me and it is perfect for home use!
