POD HD500

Thank You Thank You for Being a Friend Andrew Gold Blackface Double Nrm 231
ricksox Nothing too fancy here. Just a Blackface Nrm amp model with a touch of Plate reverb. This tone sounds best using a Tele in the bridge position. 11/23/11
 
POD HD500

RawStereoDly Blackface Double Nrm Various 334
ricksox There’s nothing fancy here. This tone is just a Blackface Dbl Norm amp model and a single Stereo Delay Effect. It sounds great if you have a guitar with humbuckers set to the neck pickups. If you’re a finger style guitarist then this tone can work very well for you. The Left Time parameter is set to about 255ms and I have the right side set to dotted ¼ notes. The Left Feedback parameter is at 60% while the right side Feedback is set to 65%. I have the delay Mix set to 60% as well. 10/27/11

RefuseDly Gibtone 185 Rock 332
ricksox I don’t know what it is but I always find myself coming back to the Gibtone 185 model in the POD HD multi-effects processors. I absolutely LOVE the way this little amp breaks up when you crank the Drive parameter. It sounds wonderful through a guitar sporting humbuckers with the pickups in the bridge position. Similar to how I set the delay effect in the RawStereoDly tone, I have the Left Time parameter set to 295ms and the Right Time set to dotted 8th notes instead of ¼ notes. The Left Feedback parameter is set to 50% while the right side Feedback parameter is set to 60%. The Mix parameter is once again set to 60%. 10/27/11

MoreRaggaPlease Blackface Double Nrm 1304
ricksox I don’t know what my infatuation is with Reggae tones but I always seem to try to dial in a better one that the last when I play around with my POD HD500. This particular tone is fairly straight forward and it showcases the Stereo Delay quite nicely. I’m once again using the Blackface Double Nrm amp model. The Left Time parameter on the Stereo Delay is set to 155ms and the right side Time is set to ¼ note triplet. The Left Feedback parameter is set to a lower 25% and the Right Feedback parameter is set slightly higher at 40%. I’ve got the Mix parameter set just above half way at 55% 10/27/11

Freddy`sDead Brit J-800 420
ricksox Ok. Here it is. That big 80’s rock sound we call out in the POD HD manuals. It’s really easy to dial in this type of tone using the Stereo Delay. You might want to tweak it to taste but I think it’s pretty close. I’m using the classic Brit J-800 amp model here. The delay parameters are set a bit differently here. I’ve got the Left Time set to a very low 80ms. The Right Time is set much higher to 500ms. The Left Feedback parameter is set to a whopping 80% while the right side Feedback is much lower at 20%. The Mix parameter is set to an even 50%. This is a fun tone. 10/27/11
 
POD HD300

DynaTrails300 Super O Rock 797
ricksox I love the little Super O model on the POD HD multi-effects processors. If you’ve been reading my blogs you already know this. This particular amp model breaks up beautifully when you drive it and in my opinion, is very easy to dial in. This tone highlights the Ducking and Threshold parameters on the Dynamic Delay effect model. When I attack a note you can hear the delay duck a bit. This would be a good tone for a softer intro in a song, right before it explodes! 8/22/11

DynaRecto300 NOFX, Less Than Jake California Treadplate Metal/Modern Punk 917
ricksox Here’s something a little heavier for you high gain folks out there. I’m using the Treadplate amp model here and you might here a tone like this on some of the more modern punk rock albums IE: NOFX, Less Than Jake, etc. It would also work well with metal. Again, I only added a touch of the Dynamic Delay model to give it more of a reverb type quality as opposed to a true delay sound. 8/22/11

DynaCrunch300 Divide 9/15 Classic Punk 797
ricksox The Divide 9/15 amp model is capable of generating some great crunch tones similar to what you might here on various punk rock albums. I added a touch of Dynamic Delay to this tone to bring it all together. 8/22/11

Model Packs increase the number of Amp or FX Models of a GuitarPort, TonePort, PODxt, PODxt Live or PODxt Pro, for a wider variety of tone possibilities. When a particular tone in the library relies on a Model available in one of these packs, you'll see symbol(s) to indicate which Packs: MS (Metal Shop), CC (Classics Collection), FX (FX Junkie), and PP (Power Pack).

The models within the FX Junkie Model Pack are already included in PODxt Live, and offered for purchase to add-on to GuitarPort, TonePort, PODxt and PODxt Pro.

Variax is the uniquely flexibile guitar from Line 6. Our Vetta II amplifier includes a digital connection for the Variax that lets you store settings for both your amp and your guitar in the Vetta II so that when you call up a Vetta Channel Memory your amp and guitar can change sounds together. Vetta II Tones marked with this guitar symbol include this Variax data.

For each tone in the library, you'll see an icon for either a single coil or humbucker pickup. This tells you whether the tone is best for use with a single coil pickup or a humbucker, so you can select the appropriate pickup on your guitar when using this tone.

Attention POD 2.0, Flextone and HD147 owners... Your hardware doesn't do Stomp effects, so you'll hear something different than what was intended. Try increasing the Drive or choose a higher gain Amp Model to get the right sound. The other aspects of the sound should translate as expected, so you'll at least get a great starting place for tweaking.
