Hi there!
So, Today I tried to set up the HD500X to work with a combo amp. There is a problem I find: Even when the POD HD500X is set to a New Sound (No amp and no effects emulation) it does not send my original clean sound to the amp.
If I connect my guitar straight to the amp, it sounds great.
If I put the POD in the middle with no effects and no amp, it kills the tone, sound like a blanket over the amp speaker.
Here a sample sound I just recorded to take a listen: https://soundcloud.com/bluesoverdrive/guitar-podhd500x-combofront?in=bluesoverdrive/sets/hd500-test
Why is it happening? What if I just want to use the effects like a Line6 M13 would between the guitar and amp signal?
Any ideas?
