I was setting up my Pod Go with a new (old) Fender Super Amp (really nice old Fender sound!!), and was trying to put some drive pedals into the effects loop of the Pod go (there is no Fx loop in the Fender). It worked fine, then after I plugged the Pod Go into my computer to set up a new pre-set, the effects loop quit working in all pre-sets. I tried everything, swapping cables, go in and out in all the combinations I can think of. Everything works great in the Pod Go, EXCEPT the effect loop - which does not work in any pre-set. While it is possible something broke (there was no indication via crackling sound, broken transmission etc.)/bad circuit board, I suspect some setting got changed by accident. I tried to set it back to factory settings and it did not work. Any suggestions of any kind? I really need to get the Fx loop working!! Thanks all.

Thanks - the article was referring to the Helix, but the take home message was the same - use the final output block to get as close as possible, and they may need to be re-set for each specific gig (halls are different, etc.). Changing volume after all the effects and amps, etc. prevents tonal changes due to volume changes moving through the chain (which makes sense). Plus, it is easier then messing with a bunch of individual volume knobs. Do you know, if you set the output volume at the end of the chain, does it carry over for all the Snapshots in a block? Thanks everyone.

I saw this - multiple comments in the review says it works for Pod Go (although one says is does not). Does anyone have any experience with this unit? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0154WFJDG?ref=em_1p_1_ti&ref_=pe_4759900_700686040

As I am starting to set up both multiple presets, and starting to use Snapshots, etc., I am finding getting volumes to match so I can quickly move from one to the other onstage and have equal volumes is becoming problematic. Is there a way, or what is the best way to control, really, equilibrate, the volumes of all the various presets, snapshots, etc? There are volume controls on all blocks, inputs, outputs, FX loop, etc. and it is really cumbersome to manage them. Especially, now that I have a number of pre-sets all set up, to have to go back and change them and their respective snapshots, etc is really tiresome and a time sink. Does anyone have a good suggestion on how to manage volumes, both from the get go, as well as going back and equilibrating a bunch of already set up blocks, etc? Thanks.

Thanks for the reference. The CS line looks good, definitely should work. Pretty expensive. Boy, you would not think a power chord to a simple device would be so expensive or so hard to find at a reasonable price!!!!

Took a look at your link - did not see anything for the pod go listed - i did message them to see if I missed it or they have something. Thanks for the link.

Again, thank you - I appreciate the help.

Thank you very much. I will check this out. I am in the US, and while I can get an adaptor, would be better to have a US plug. Have any insight in that? Appreciate your help.

The power cord for the Pod Go is not really road worthy - as well, I like to have both a back up cord: a cord I leave at my studio at home as well as one in my Gig back. Besides being back ordered, they are also very expensive. Does any have suggestions on options other then buying a direct replacement (which can't be done right now)? Also, the DC-3h unit is 9V 3A - is it ok to use one with higher amps (ie: 9V 4A)? How about one with fewer amps - 9V 2A? Is there a range that will work 3A +/- 14% or some other Percentage? Right now playing with just one cord and that is risky............. Any help/advice is greatly appreciated.

I have a Pod Go and a very clean sounding Bugera 50W tube amp. The amp is very clean sounding. I play both jazz (clean sound) and jamming rock, ala Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers, Santana, Clapton. I am looking for some advice on some settings on how to get both the super clean sound AND a very driven sound in the same Preset so I can switch between them in the same song. The challenge is the driven tones - looking for that tube "saturatuated" sound, like it is just about to break up, but doesn't. Alot of power behind a single string note, deep, resonant, sustained like Garcia, Allman, Santana. Not distortion, tube saturation. I have tried some of the drivers, but those alone don't provide the depth and power I am looking for. I want to also have a few blocks left over for other effects, so don't want to use all 4 blocks for this. And, want to be able to turn it on and off to mix the clean jazz and the more forceful jamming. Any thoughts suggestions or ideas are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
