FlatFingers Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I'm a newbie with the POD, and I have an FX setup with a number of effects that I switch in & out. I'm running a Gibson SG through it & listening on headphones, running it into Cubase LE AI Elements 7 on my Win 7 computer. There's a single slap-back echo that I can't get rid of when I want to play a clean sound. It might be a product of recording & monitoring through the Cubase, but I've not tried generating a clean track & playing it back. Anyone have any ideas? Attached are pictures of my POD screens.

DunedinDragon Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 My first impression is it's probably an artifact of latency in your Cubase where you're monitoring both source and recording at the same time. If it's not there when you play it back, that's probably it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinon2 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Plug some headphones directly into the POD. If you don't hear it that way, then the problem is further down the line... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am 98.876% sure it's that you are listening to both the HD500 and the Cubase DAW monitoring at the same time. After you've recorded it, when you listen back to the track, is the echo still there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlatFingers Posted May 20, 2016 Author Share Posted May 20, 2016 Think you guys have it - I don't hear the echo in playback. I have my headphones plugged into the POD. I'm pretty sure I have monitoring shut off in Cubase, but I'll have to check that out next time. I'll post again if/when I figure this out. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlatFingers Posted October 28, 2017 Author Share Posted October 28, 2017 I noticed the echo without being in Cubase...And, I've had to rediscover that I have to turn off Win 7 sound with the POD USB plugged into the computer OR unplug the USB after downloading settings. It's a small pain, 'cause I'd like to play along with songs from Windows through the USB through my phones connected to the POD. So it goes...
