Hi, I'll introduce myself before I ask you: I'm ManelGris, a Catalan guitarist/singer, using an old POD XT live. I invite you to hear some recordings made with it at http://www.reverbnation.com/manelgris.

I start this discussion because in one of my songs I use an octave preset like "octave bend" or "Whammy octave up". The fact is that I play half of the song without the bend stomp, and when it comes to use it, I get detuned half a tone, so I can't synchronize myself with the rest of the band (for instance, we play in D and I find myself sounding at D#).

Can anyone give me a tip (edition, maybe making a preset from zero or anything else) to avoid it?

Many thanks in advance!
