Hi, When setting output level of an emulated speaker it affects both the physical loudspeaker output AND the XLR output. This is really annoying. Here's the scenario. You want to use the PC as your amplifier with a speaker emulation and get the signal from the XLR ouput to front of house with the speaker emulation. If you don't want to overload the mixer's input you have to lower the output level of the preset (whether you set the PC to output mike ou line level doesn't change anything). Problem : the output of the physical speaker is too low on stage. Now, if you increase the output of the preset to have more volume from the speaker, the signal from XLR is far too hot and the FOH sound is distorted. Same problem with the low/high cut. If you have too many highs from the speaker and engage high cut, then the sound in front of house lacks highs. Why didn't they implement independent settings for the XLR output so that it only affects the emulated output ? The way it works is stupid ! Cheers. Jay

Hi ! If it were a real rig, having effects after the cab would be like having them on the mixer, as send or insert effects. If you goal is to get the sound of an amp miked up without any effect added by the sound guy, put everything before the cab. This is what I do on stage, as if my cab was just miked up with a simple microphone. When recording it's different, you may want stereo effects. In that case, the "console" effects would come after the cab. Cheers. Jay

Hi ! I got the one at Myvolts. It comes with an adapter to reverse the polarity and it does work BUT it generates some noise. It would be ok as a backup just to finish a gig, in case of, but not more. I told Myvolts aboutnthat and they refunded me. Cheers.

Hi ! What I've been wishing since I got my PG is the ability to switch the cab block on/off globally. But I'm afraid it will never come. Having to create two sets of patches is a real PITA. Cheers.

Hi, Jad the problem with 4 different computer using the supplied cable. Did not work. Got a new quality shielded 4-meter cable......it works perfectly with the same 4 computers. Si, yes, the supplied cable is crap ! Cheers. Jay

Hi! I had the same problem when I first got my PG and thought I'd solved it by using a powered usb hub. But I recently had the same problem again with all my computers. I eventually got a good shielded usb cable.......no more problem. So the conclusion is that the cable Line6 provide is pure crap. When getting such a product it is not acceptable. Cheers. Jay

Hi ! What is the maximum output level (in dBU at 0dBFS) that POD GO can produce when main output and/or amp out are set to line and instrument ? Thanks.

Hi, It's my own request on Ideascale, so, already upvoted ;o) Cheers Jay

I guess you should read my post more closely. I know the f*****g manual by heart LOL I do know how to set everything up but, if the cabs could just be bypassed on the amp out (only) and not judt be tapped before the cab, we wouldn't have to put the cab at the end of the chain to get all effects in the monitoring amp. The way I do it, I have stereo effects after the cab, so that the main outs are in stereo to FOH, but I have to tap the signal before the cab on the amp out and therefore get a dry signal. If I want to have the effects in the amp, I have to choose the "clone main outs" setting, but then the cab doubles up with the cab of the amp. My question was then, is there a hardware limitation preventing line6 to allow the amp out to give the same signal as main outs but with the cab disengaged ? I also own a Hotone Ampero. In the settings you can choose to disable cabs globally on either left or right output, without having to deactivate the block in your presets. Cheers. Jay

Hi, Is it not possible hardwarewise to add this feature to the Pod Go ? Is there a hardware limitation not allowing to do that ? I mean, having the possibility to bypass cab block globally on the amp out while keeping it active on the main outs ? I usually send the stereo main to FOH and use an amp on stage for monitoring and at the moment I have to either leave cab on and the monitor sound is not that nice, or put the cab at the end and I lose the stereo signal on main outs. Cheers. Jay

Hi, As I wrote above, had the problem all the time when first got my Pod Go. Edit kept giving me disconnection messages all the time after a few minutes. Now I have the PG plugged into an external powered USB hub. Problem solved, no more disconnections. Cheers. Jay

Hi ! I haven't had time to update yet but the bug fix list says they fixed the expression pedal swap bug. Good stuff ! Cheers. Jay

Hi, They updated the ticket. They managed to reproduce the bug and have escalated the issue further. So, it is a bug. I hope they fix it quickly because it is a must-have feature when playing live. Cheer Jay

Hi, Unfortunately you can't change the output level of the Amp Out. I tried a few things. But it is quite powerful anyway so it should be ok to drive this FRFR cabinet as a monitor on stage. When used as the main cabinet for small gigs, I'll just use one of the main outputs. Maybe a small DI would be a good solution. Thanks for the answers. Cheers. Jay

Hi ! What is the level of the Amp out ? Line ot instrument ? I have a Harley Benton FRFR112 arriving which I will be using as a monitor on stage (and as my amp at home). It has Line inputs, will it be ok xith the amp out ? I don't want to use the main outputs because these will go direct to PA when gigging. Thanks. Jay
