Got round to trying the Guitar Input Pad on my wireless unit yesterday. Was a bit baffled at first because I couldn't discern any difference between it being on or off, but I was using wireless and when I used a cable instead it obviously worked. Am I missing a setting here somewhere? Surely that setting should be available via both methods?
It's frustrating because I'd given up on wireless with the constant drop outs but having moved house (and router) that's no longer an issue.
I wanted to try the input pad because the default settings on most amps and drives sound too gainy and boomy. I use humbuckers but nothing crazy, just stock burstbuckers. It does seem to have a positive effect, I don't have to drop the drive and/or bass so dramatically. I had hoped it might make the fuzzes useable, but still no. Do people use these on Pod Go? I understand with Helix you can have the unit change the input impedance when lower impedance effects are used but Pod has fixed impedance. Fuzz sounds terrible on my Pod, even the muffs which shouldn't be so temperamental - completely over distorted and not in a good way, I assume that's the incorrect impedance now that padding the input doesn't seem to improve things?
I have had the old hardware impedance issue fixed on mine already for the record.
