    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.

    This "Still got the Blues" sound is based on the gear that Gary Moore used in the beginning of the 1990's, a Soldano SLO 100 OD channel and an EVM 12L IR model. It has been reported that he used the crunch channel, but I prefer the OD channel for this preset. You need to install Ownhammers Electrovoice EVM 12L IR model. I use the "OH 412 MAR-CB EV-L" (or use the EVM 12L cab). The preset looks for it in Impulse position 9 (you have to change that to fit your needs). I am using the OCD (compulsive drive) instead of the Tubescreamer, because it sounds less nasal to my ears. I use this preset with a Gibson Les Paul R9 2014 with high output pickups. 4 effect controllers are assigned, as well as 4 snapshots (make sure your Helix is configured the way that you see all the snapshots and effect bypasses) Snapshot 1 (Verse) is for the verse part (it includes a chorus effect) Snapshot 2 (Chorus) is for the chorus (but does not include a chorus effect :-) Snapshot 3 (Crunch): I use it for the last E-chord in the verse, just before the chorus. It has more power than the regular Verse snapshot. Snapshot 4 (Lead): I guess you figure out for what this one was made :-) Roll back a little the volume pickup on the guitar to make the intro solo sound more precise (80%). This preset uses two DSP channels. The second channel is configured fort the use of a microphone. BTW this is the first preset I made on the Helix. I hope it is of any use to you.
