Hi there, first post here.
So I'm sure many here are aware of MeAmBobbo's pod guide, http://foobazaar.com/podhd/toneGuide/ . Being fairly new to the pod (I've had a few weeks to make myself comfortable), I have read most of this guide at least once and referenced many sections repeatedly. I've learned a great deal, but being that the guide is clearly pointed at people looking to create metal tones I've had to adjust accordingly. I've also found that I rather like taking dual amp chains and applying compatible cabs and mics (the dual cab technique) and carving out space for each amp/cab to have their strong points emphasized.
So this is all great, I'm having a blast, but my favorite amp in there isn't even mentioned in the guide and cab/delay spread sheet ( https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AsSFadRSa9zYdG1kc1J2b1ZvRFVlUVIydXRMVVoyZnc&usp=sharing ) doesn't touch on the PhD, Super O, or Celest cabs, to name a few. I can only assume that these other cabs have potential as well, but I am automatically less keen on using them in dual cab or dual amp/cab chains due to the fact I'm wandering the dark in terms of compatible mics to deal with phasing.
Does anyone have any thoughts here? I know Bobbo moved on and the guide seems a few years old so maybe some of these cabs weren't even around back then, I'm too new to know. Perhaps if I knew how to test for compatible combos I could take a crack at it.
