  1. i can recreate the octave of the original tone wit the pitch glide, but what i need to be able to do is play both at the same time. Could i split the path and run two signal chains?
  2. I'm trying to find a way to get two tones at the same time from one guitar. What i'd like to recreate is the tone of are you gonna go my way by Lenny Kravitz. I've got a good enough sound, but i'd like to find a way to play one octave up, at the same time as the original tone. Make sense? When you listen to the song, Lenny is playing one octave up, over the original. Easily done with two guitarists, but can it be done with one?
  3. Thanks for all of your advice :-) The no cost option will be to run in to the power amp of my 212, so i'll give that a go and see how it sounds at the next practice session. Its not ideal as i'll have to transport a heavy amp every time. There are cabs available to use at the studio where we practice, so if the 212 doesn't work out, then maybe I should try a stand alone 'amp pedal' to provide power to a cab (something simple like an orange terror stamp or such like?)
  4. I'm still a big fan of my 500X despite the 'older' tech, maybe because I'm older (50+). At home its great to setup all my tones and listen via headphones. But as I'm sure you are all aware, that doesn't equate to a good live sound. I play in a covers band, so I need a real mix of tones with various amp and cab combinations with various effects to recreate the sound of a mix of styles. I've got a great set of patches that I've created and I'm happy how they sound at home through headphones. When we play a larger gig, then its easy to just go into the desk/FOH to sue the PA and I monitor through in-ears. I need to find a better solution for my live set up when in the practice studio, or smaller gigs without the PA. At the moment I'm sacrificing a lot of my tone by just going from the pod to the front of the amp. Its ok for practice but its not the sound that I want. I could go down the 4cm, but that will take some work to edit all the patches to put in an effects loop block and tweak the mixer settings etc.... And this is where I'd really appreciate your input/thought/opinions/advice/do's/don'ts. I had an idea that I could run the pod out to a power amp and then a cab, as this would be a better option that isn't going to colour the tone the same ways as running into the front of an amp would. I appreciate that the cab will have its own 'tonal character' but if a choose an FRFR (or maybe a PA speaker) that should limit the issue. As another idea, I've got a Fender Frontman 212r knocking about that has a PRE in and PWR out (send/return fx loop?). Could I plug the pod into the PWR out, effectively bypassing the preamp of the Fender, so I just use it as a 'powered cab'? As you can probably guess, I'm not very techno savvy!!!! Any help would be very much appreciated, and bare in mind that I'm looking for a low budget solution, not some high end £££££ setup Cheers, NIck
  5. I’ve got edit up and running on windows 10 by installing a windows 8 version and sorting the Java issue. Everything is working as it should, I’m able to edit tones, upload and tweek. However, the drop down lists of effects won’t scroll so I can’t select anything past the bottom of the list/page. Any ideas?
