Thanks for reply mmjjww. That all seems like sound advice. No pun intended.
installing Gearbox to your suggested specs will be my project on return from a family wedding this weekend.
My ‘ antique’ setup will be the Pod X 3 Pro linked to a lovely Red tremolo 700. Can’t wait to try some of those on line tones.
Have to admit that I’m not sure how the Farm would be of use myself. Still I hate not being able to get bits of software running!
