Where can I find the manual for the POD HD on the website ? It doesn't have it. They completely deleted any reference to the HD BEAN from this website.

I hear that ! Well, seems like short of getting an Axe this is the best buy in town !!!

Ahh super ! I knew i'd encounter some tricks coming here :) In the High Gain world, is the POD HD as good as that GSP unit that digitech sells ? 1101 i think ?

Thanks for the detailed response ! Much appreciated. Do you have any other units to compare the POD to ? By digitech, Avid, etc ....

Hi there ! I am interested right now in replacing my pedalboard with an effects box. 1. It will have to be great at high gain sounds that are somewhat clean and clear. Marshall ? Old fender. 2. It will need to hook up to random amps that don't sound just right, and make them better for me during live situations. 3. It will need to have a great spring reverb and tape delay. 4. I want to be able to hook a guitar cable to it, and sometimes bypass an amp and go straight to PA or home monitors. Now I hear the POD Desktop HD is a good option for me, but searching this forum, I see people mention it does not have an FX Loop. Does that mean that I can't select if I want the Delay after the distortion or arrange the analog order of effects ? Isn't that a deal breaker for practically anyone, or what am I missing here ? Also, does the POD HD have good clean distortions, those clear ones, not metal, not straight Rock, but more of that Vai, Satriani clear sound, where you can still here each note with ease, even though it's boosted as hell. Please if you can, confirm that the POD HD desktop answers points 1-4 mentioned above without need for additional gear ? Thanks for any help !
