Hello, I have my POD GO hooked up to my PC via usb and the main outs connected directly to 2 x 8" 100 watt studio monitors. I am noticing a large discrepancy between my guitar patches volume and audio playback ( youtube, games, any sound from my PC ). As an example I need to turn the main volume knob up to 100% to get a nice loud guitar playback but if I was to play a Youtube video at that same volume I think I would probably die / explode from how loud it would be lol. Is this normal? Thank you

I have a similar issue with my POD GO.... Running it through 2 x 100 watt studio monitors with 8" woofers straight from the mains into the the monitors. You tube, games etc.... are super super loud but my guitar patches need to basically have the volume knob at 100% to be pretty loud. Is this normal behavior?

I've played 2 shows now with my POD Go where I use it straight into the PA without an amp / cab on stage just straight through mixer out of some Yamaha MSR400 speakers I believe. My brother who is the sound tech told me tonight that my rhythm tone sounded pretty decent all though maybe slightly harsh. The main issue was my lead tone apparently which my brother described as very " in your face " and too forward in the mix I guess? I have a reverb on my lead tone so I figured that would help but apparently not. I don't really know how else to describe it other than too in your face / shrill / harsh maybe? I have a cut at 5khz in the IR block and the presence / treble down as well. Maybe I have the mids too high and its cutting too much in the mix? Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you,

Hey! So I know a lot of people like to run a cut on the lows at 100hz in the IR block and a 4.5-5.5hz on the highs. If I wanted to cut these frequencies outside the cab block what would be the easiest way? I don't think the high and low cut in the parametric EQ for example cut the same way or at the same amount. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Hey thanks for the reply. So while I was at sound check I actually tried that as well thinking I had the cabling wrong. No matter what I did as soon as I plugged the left main and amp out in the pod go at the same time it was a terrible hum like perhaps a serious grounding issue. If I unplug either cable from the pod go the hum stopped and it worked as intended

Hey everyone, Hopefully someone understands what is happening here because I am super frustrated and at a loss. For the first time I'm attempting to run my POD go into the mixer for FOH and also run into the FX Loop of my head I have sound out the cab. So I'm running a 1/4 to XLR cable from the amp out into the mixer and then a normal 1/4 from the left main out into the FX Return of my amp. As soon as I plug any two cables into their respective slot on the back of the pod go I get an insane hum / feedback out the amp. As soon as I unplug either of the two cables the hum / feedback stops. Am I doing something wrong? The hum is crazy loud like not tolerable at all. Thank you,

I use my POD GO for music playback and also for my guitar playback through my studio monitors. I do not use the POD GO for recording at all just for audio playback and guitar playing. I use Tidal and have a Hi-Fi plus membership which gives me high quality playback Up to 24-bit, 192 kHz ( High res FLAC, lossless stuff ) so I was wondering if me using 24-bit 96khz has any benefit for my music playback? Does the sample rate on my PC have anything to do with the sounds on my POD GO? Or only for playback off the PC?

Hello! I recently bought a POD GO and have been using it at home with either headphones or directly out of my Yorkville YSM8 studio monitors with great results. The other purpose for me buying this unit is to use it in a live scenario in my classic rock band which I went to test today and I have questions. I am going Line out -> Amp FX Return ( Old 80's Marshall Mosfet lead 100 solid state head ) and obviously guitar ( Fender Tele ) in the input. The amp is plugged into a V30 equipped 4x12. I am using preamps of the POD GO only with the cab block disabled. My question is that when going through the preamps one by one just starting at the 100 who watt preamp and going down the list turning the knob I noticed something strange. The first like 20 amps are all clean and sound the same just dull with no character at all. When I got home I tested the amp vs preamp for every model and all the amps excluding a few sounded amazing with the built in power section and what was more surprising is they almost all had natural grit / gain to them. A quick example of what I mean if you want to reproduce it would be the amp " derailed Ingrid ". The amp sounds really really good nice gain but then switch over to the preamp version and it becomes a lifeless clean channel. This is how the preamp sounds coming out of my 4x12 at my jam space.... Am I doing something wrong? Did I connect something wrong? Is my signal path / blocks wrong? I have the most simple path ever just volume pedal -> preamp and nothing else on just for testing purpose. Thank you!
