nhmusicman Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Hi, Have been using my pod hd500 as an interface for vocal recording to my Mac and with a festival gig on its way, thought I'd run the guitar through it. To my surprise the "guitar in" no longer seems to be receiving a signal... No sound and even the tuner is not receiving any sound. I've plugged the guitar into the "cd in"and that works fine but I can't use any effects using that! Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_m Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Are you sure you don't have the input set to something else? You could have this input selection set to global and just have the guitar input disabled for tone path 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brazzy Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Yes, like phil said, check the input setting. Make sure you've got guitar input correct. Make sure if a pedal is assigned it's set correctly. Check the volume levels of the mixer. Try starting out with a blank patch with the correct input settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pianoguyy Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 And after you do all that has come before me... Try input 2. Also, try using a cord that doesn't need an adapter. Anything that fits into the CD jack is not going to fit into the guitar jack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhmusicman Posted June 3, 2016 Author Share Posted June 3, 2016 You my friends are legends! Global Inputs were set to Mic (obviously)! Thank you! Just need to work out why none of the patch foot switches are working properly now!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rewolf48 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Are you in FS 5-8 mode the switches effects on and off rather than Patch select mode "ABCD" - it is another global setting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right! That's exactly the problem I was having - thanks for clearing that up! Not used the POD for guitar in years so should re-read the manual, clearly! Thanks all.
