DarkEdge Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Is there an amp model that mimics a 1968 Plexi Variac? As a side note what does the Class Topology and Modes do for us? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radatats Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 they are releasing a new model pack in a few weeks for purchase that has a Variac Plexi model. Class and topology apply to the DT amps when used with the POD, has no effect otherwise. Download the advanced guide for info on output modes. http://line6.com/data/6/0a06434dfb244f7b7f489af64/application/pdf/POD%20HD500%20Advanced%20Guide%20v2.0%20-%20English%20%28%20Rev%20A%20%29.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palico Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 they are releasing a new model pack in a few weeks for purchase that has a Variac Plexi model. I beleive that Variac Plexi will be the old X3 model not a HD one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelForbin Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I beleive that Variac Plexi will be the old X3 model not a HD one. Yeah; I was wishing that was an all new full-HD plexi variac model!! I am still stoked for the rebuilt JCM800 model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RipperShred Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 They said it was a "podfarm" model, which has me wondering if I can use it in preamp-only mode. That part isn't clear to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will they sound better on the HD500X than they currently sound on the FX100? How much are those model packs going to be? Are any of the new models coming out HD? Isn't the HD platform nearing the end of its lifespan? Why are they even charging for these model packs? Seems like the Firehawk is going to offer quite a bit of the HD technology and I/O. Are they going to leave something out of the Firehawk to make the HD500x still desireable? These model packs don't seem like the answer! haha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the "PodFarm" models is the same as the X3 models. Still happy to have the ability to get some of them like an acoustic amp even if it's not HD. As for the FireHawk my understanding is doesnt' have the routing ability of the HD500x. It really seems like a crossover between the Amplfi and the HD500x, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
