POD as audio interface for software modellers?

Hi,

 

I own a POD HD500 and I'd like to give some software modellers such as Amplitube a try. I can use the POD HD no problem, but I'm hearing both the sound from the POD patch AND the sound from the software modeller. Is there a way I can set it up so that I only hear the processed output from Amplitube, Guitar Rig or whatever and not hear the sound from the POD patch?

 

Thanks

Try creating a blank POD patch with no amp or effect blocks. You might need to use a vintage EQ block to help bring enough gain to the DAW, but the MASTER volume may be enough.

If you set up a blank preset, you can use the pod as a midi controller for amplitude or any other sim that is midi enabled. I have a whole set list set up for just this purpose. You're limited to the 64 pc#s that are sent by default from the pod, but you can control 8 fx and use the pod's exp pedal and toe switch to control wah and other continuous controller fx like using a real effect (on/off with toe switch) which is otherwise difficult to do in sims. There's also a way to mimic two-way communication with the sim, causing the on/off status of the sims fx to be reflected by the pod's LEDs both on load and during operation.

 

I'm on the road till Thursday and typing on my iPhone is annoying, but if you're interested in the how-to let me know and I'll give you the details then.
