  1. 24-bit, 96 kHz, I believe (although, I believe the sampling rate is 48 kHz internally). There’s not really any benefit to using 32-bit converters. The dynamic range that 24-bit provides is beyond what any analog circuitry on front of the converters is able to match anyway. Another way to put it is that the noise floor of analog circuits is the limiting factor.

    New to the POD Go and wondering what the thinking is behind it blinking?


    It blinks the tempo that saved with the preset or snapshot (or tapped in globally). Effects like delays and modulations can be synced to that tempo.

    Hi there,

    Im just looking for a little help please. I have just got myself the cs7 and had a look through the manual, specifically in regards to the CL6 green adapter. It appears to be just a straight through adapter. In your post above you mentioned that you used two adapters. I am assuming the CL6 green adapter (to fit to the pod go) but I am wondering why you would need to use the CYR red polarity converter (my assumption - please correct me if I am wrong) considering the center pin in the CS7 is negative and the center pin in the pod go is also negative. The CS7 manual does not say anywhere that the CL6 green adapter reverses the polarity, so why would you need to use the CYR Red reverse polarity converter? 


    The TrueTone CL6 adapter reverses the polarity. It’s a holdover from the old Line 6 4 button stomp pedals and the Visual Sound adapters that were made for them.

  4. No. When you plug the Stomp into your computer, it becomes your audio interface, meaning it become the input and output device. You need to hook speakers or headphones up to it to hear the guitar.

  5. Yes, it’s possible. You can turn the Mix for the delay all the way down and then set the Mix for the reverb to whatever you want it to be. The mix controls of each are completely independent from one another. But the reverb only applies to the preset you save it to.

     

    If you go to Looper mode, you only have access to the echo effect in that mode. You can, however, use the 1-Switch looper and still use the reverb in the preset. You can access the 1-Switch looper by assigning it to the Tap footswitch or one of the external footswitches.

  6. You’d want to do it the other way around, actually. If you put a Send block right before the IR block, you could send that signal to your amp and then use the main outs to go to the board.

     

    Although, you also need some form of amp modeling with the IR. The IR is just a snapshot of a cab and mic. If you had an amp connected in the 4CM, you could split of the signal coming back from the amp’s preamp and send one side of it through the IR and the other back to the amp’s power section.

     

    The setup you’re describing here is typically something you’d see people wanting to use with one of the products with amp modeling, not the HX Effects.

  7. What else do you have assigned to that footswitch? I see it says "MULTIPLE (2)", when you're hitting, so perhaps you're turning something else on inadvertently.

     

    I just tried this on my Helix, and I'm not hearing anything weird. Thought that it might have something to do with summing to mono, but I don't hear anything out of the ordinary when I try that either. So I don't know. I can check on my HX Effects later.

    I haven't jumpered them yet. I also tried my EHX Soul Food in the loop. Not as noisy as the fuzzes, but also not useable. 

     

    I've got a Crybaby and an EP Booster going in the front end of the HX. The first block in the HX is a phaser, then the effects loop with the fuzz, followed by the Teemah (only for lead boost), slapback delay, longer delay, reverb and tremelo. Nothing crazy really.


    Try bypassing the Teemah and see if the noise floor decreases.

  9. Have you tried effects other than fuzzes in the loop? What happens if you just run a jumper cable from the send to the return?

     

    Some fuzzes don’t like being a connected to low impedance outputs, but there shouldn’t necessarily be that much noise. What blocks do you have after the FX loop block?

    I'm new to this as well.  I purchased the line 6 helix rack and the powercab 112 plus.  Should I run the 112 plus powercab with the line 6 link AES/EBU out from the Helix rack (L6 Link/AES in on the powercab) ------- or do I run an XLR cable left (mono) out from the helix rack into the left/mono input on the powercab?  Is there a difference?

    The whole reason (well, almost the whole reason) in getting the Plus version of the Powercab is being able to control it with the L6 Link connection. So there’s no good reason to use the PC’s XLR inputs versus the L6 Link connection.

  11. The max length for USB 2.0 is typically listed as 5M, or about 16ft. You might be able to push that to 20ft, but, yeah, im not surprised you’re having issues with a 10M cable. There are ways you can extend it - active extender cables or bridges - but I’m not sure those would even work with the POD Go.

    Um. No...when I try to log in, It says "For this server invalid, you might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be Line6.com, which could put you at risk.

    C'mon man. Beides having a dingbatt USB cable, what othr hurdles must I pass.

    Can you send me the file so I can manually upgrade this thang, which is driving me crazy

    What browser are you using?

  13. You can’t change folders with MIDI. You just select the preset directly by sending the MIDI PC associated with whatever scene you want. So if you were in Scene 3B in Folder 4 (PC#23) and wanted to go to Scene 3A in that same folder, you’d just send PC#22.

    Yeah, I have a 250 and I was planning on getting a 270. I was assuming it actually was a Baritone because of the scale. So is it just a longer 250 in EADGBE? It's not very clear from the site.

     Yes. It’s designed to be tuned to standard tuning and use regular gauge electric strings even though it uses the baritone scale length. I remember hearing Stevic say he thought the increased string tension helped with the Variax tracking, but I also think he just liked the longer scale length.

    My older g10t suddenly will not hold a charge any longer than 10 minutes.  Until about a month ago, it would hold a charge for at least 2 hours or more.  Will updating the firmware correct this issue.  I have never updated the firmware previously.


    How old is it? I imagine the battery is just kaput. It will eventually happen to lithium ion batteries.

  16. I’m sure you’d have to have the nut recut to do that. Are you planning on downtuning? Even though the 270 is a longer scale similar to a baritone guitar, it’s not a baritone guitar. It comes with 10-46 strings from the factory. The modeling won’t work correctly if you downtune too far from standard.
