aerosol_d7 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Hi guys Seeing the list of amps of legacy products, we see many amps that are currently unavailable on pods helix etc. Why? Low definition ? Is there any reason that l6 couldn't just port the way they are ( even if is lower quality) to have more options? Sorry if this has been asked but I'm new to this, started with pod hd. When I see pod x3 amp list, I feel that there is a strong reason they did not keep REmodelling or porting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titchyblackcat Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 I agree I've a couple of killer tones that i still ise on my Pod v2 bean. Obvioulsy it mean i have to change wires etc. Now if the HD could only sample ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NucleusX Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 After installing the model packs, I felt there was a fair set of amps that where ported over to the POD HD. I'm guessing there's a balance to be struck here. Too many ports and people start complaining about the point of having a HD unit filled with lower resolution amps and the value concerning it. Apparently they modelled the new HD model pack amps with the Helix modelling and then ported them to the POD HD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joel_brown Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 It's like having an HD T.V. and watching old black and white movies. Yeah they're classics but only a small group of people do it. I'm having a hard time understanding how you can't get what you need with the available amp models. Maybe it's your pickups. They make a big difference.

aerosol_d7 Posted July 26, 2015 Author Share Posted July 26, 2015 I'm not complaining, just want to know the reason. Joel, so if I ask L6 they would say: we left em out because they are not popular as others? Has nobody ever asked this question? If it is quality or time or simplification....I won't argue.

The past is the past, if it is bad or not just say non-hd, non-hx. But people would benefit having more. Or maybe those were based on the ones that are in hd with some eq'ing etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
