It´s the best tone I have on the POD!!!!! But remember it was made to use with the Combo Power Amp output mode.

Cheers!

Thanks meambobbo! I´ll try to do something better next time! I´m preparing a video demo of my amp with my guitar teacher, who knows about DAWs and that kind of stuff...

Cheers!

Hi bjnette! Thanks for the input! Other people told me the same, they can hear just the left channel, but it´s strange, because I can hear clearly both channels... Anyway, newbie things (same with the distortion and clipping...)

Cheers!

Hi Jim and Luke,

The Pinnacle is mechanic true bypass, just for the record. Now I don´t have issues with tone suck, I wanted to comment on something that you Jim suggest in your guide, that is to put a Studio EQ before the FX LOOP.

Despite the DI Box works well, I sometimes use this trick to add gain or make tighter the low end of some amp models, for example the Plexis.

But what I wanted to comment, is that I "discovered" that you can use too a Parametric EQ for the same thing, with all standard settings, raising the Gain to the max. This is very different to the Studio EQ + 12 db increase, which adds more bass and is darker. When you add the Parametric, the tone is more trebly and the low ends get tighter. Check it out!

Cheers!

Hey guys,

I made a video of my EVH tones, using the POD and the Pinnacle with some effects from the POD.

I used a SM57 mic for recording, sorry for the non-pro procedure, but I don´t know how to use Cubase or such softwares... I recorded with my HP webcam software and edited with Windows Movie Maker.

The first video was my first attempt... The volume is quite low but the tone is OK

In the second the audio is better.

Please comment!

Cheers!

Hi guys,

Finally i bought a n XLR to 1/4" cable and tried the DI BOX, connecting it as shown in the diagram below:

The results were two:

1 -There´s much less "tone sucking"!!!!! I recovered the brightness of the original tone, that is to say, connecting the guitar (and the Pinnacle pedal) straight to my amp.

2 - There´s a big volume decrease when I connect the DI BOX. But somehow this seems to be desirable. Before using the DI BOX, I had to set down the mixer´s level on the POD, to compensate my amp´s preamp volume and the POD volume (my amp´s preamp volume is much higher). I don´t know the explanation for this, or whether is it normal or not... But when I set the mixer levels to zero in a patch that uses my amp´s preamp, while the DI BOX is connected, the output volume gets leveled with the volume of those patches that use the POD modelling...

I would appreciate any comments on this, specially by Jim and Lukegeis.

Thanks and cheers!
