It's an amp simulator and a digital multi-effects editable via PC noon. He has a bean-shaped well-known super boring to place in a studio and very reassuring when you put on an amp.

UTILIZATION

The setup is simple when editing online.

PC edition editor is very well done and allows editing in depth, the first version I had was, unfortunately, somewhat buggy.

The printed manual is very clear.

SOUND QUALITY

In terms of amps: The names given are there to give an idea of ​​the type of sound rather than to faithfully reproduce the sound of any amp, it really is far, far away, a faithful emulation, as m ' promised in the store.

In terms of effects: I enjoyed the ping-pong delay and leslie, the rest is better to have a good rack of pedals.

I used it with several guitars, bass and singing, and the finding was always the same: severe lack of dynamic exaggeration of the synthetic and low in distortion.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought it in 1999, he left and I sold it with no regrets after six months to buy a J-Station.

I did everything to appreciate the Pod, with several amps to repeat, no amp in home studio, with different guitars, I have long said that I had something because of the wolf, though, the greatest use ( Line6 see site) is supposed to be awesome .. And no. While the sound is not inherently bad I've never liked either low volume (support / no top) or high volume (Atrocious).

The quality / price was pretty average at the time, now € 90 for OCCAZ's true we have a pretty cool tool for the price of a single pedal.

Given my experience I would wait six months and I bought the J-Station, where a tube preamp.
