Winter NAMM 2012 News
I certainly can't crank up my amp and let it rip. Therefore, I must say that if you're in my situation and you aren't a complete tone freak like me, you might be happy with this. Realize, though, that you'll be more than likely to get frustrated with it. These things don't necessarily improve with age. In fact, they're constantly being updated. ...
These units new come in at around $699, which is a great price for a very useful and resourceful effects processor. You can't even buy some one effects pedals for that price. Try spending that kind of money on a T Rex pedal or a Zvex pedal. I would recommend this unit to anyone who needs an all in one effects processor and doesn't care about hav...
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 ca...
It's a collection of good, usable amp and effects tones, for not much money. And it is a lifesaver on a recording session - especially if a "signature tone" type amp goes down, this box can be plugged in to save the day. With some EQ and compression, the tones can be nearly indistinguishable from the originals in many cases. If one still turns o...
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 ...
Overall you cant go wrong with this, there are some great effects with the flanger and delay’s along with some chorus. It has all of the presets that you will need to add to your creativity and take your playing to another level. I high recommend this, well I highly recommend anything From the company POD. They have always created top quality pr...
This unit is the middle unit of the HD line. It has some of the features of the 500 but is mostly like the 300. If you are just going to do home studio stuff I would suggest getting the 300 and using the PC patch editor at all times. If you are looking for a unit to play live with but cant afford a 500 this is much better than the 300 in live si...
If you are wanting to get a POD HD unit this is the best one. It has all the best features from the other units all in one. It has a large screen that enables editing on the unit without the use of a computer and it has the ability to switch easily between patches in a live setting. The amp models sound great and its a good rugged unit that can ...
If you are looking for a cheap way to have a good sound this is a good unit. It can be used lived with a PA or power amp and it is also great for just home studio stuff. Your first few days with it will be the toughest as you learn what all the functions do and make all your favorite sounding patches. With the 400 and 300 you pretty much have to...
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! At new you can...
