Controlling Output Gain on Pocket Pod


Recommended Posts

Recently used my Pocket Pod to connect to the PA at our church. I used the 1/4" output to a DI box to connect to the church's Behringer x32 digital mixer. The church sound engineer commented that he needed to boost the gain significantly since there didn't seem to be a lot of signal from me, but I'm trying to figure out why. What settings on the Pocket Pod control the level on the 1/4" output? I checked the master volume setting and it was all the way up. 

 

 

Thanks in advance.

Use the Direct Out from the Pocket Pod. The Amp Out should go to your guitar amp.

 

From the Pocket Pod reference manual: 

Amp Out – This is a mono 1/4-inch output that is perfect for connecting your Pocket POD to a guitar amp which has a pre-amp.

Direct Output/Phones – This is a stereo 1/8-inch output for headphones, a P.A. or recording device. 

 

You may need to get a 1/4" to 1/8" phone adapter plug like this one:
