skinnyriz Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Hi, I'm a long time user of an XT and also a flextone 3 amp (not in the same rig). I recently bought a pod HD. So far I really like it except one thing: no Insane model. That was my favorite metal model on the XT/Flextone. Just wondering is there anyway to install that model on the HD? Or what is the best way to get similar tone? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 no way to install old models.... with tone being subjective, and metal/high gain not being my bag... .can't help you there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunpointmetal Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 There is nothing that really comes close as far the ridiculous amount of gain that the insane model has. Luckily, all of the high gain models sh!t all over it. If that is really, really what you want, you'd probably get closer using a super clean amp, the metal zone distortion sim, and some EQ. I always hated the insane model cause it turns low-tuned stuff into a wash of white noise, but that's my taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanDinosaur Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I believe the "Epic model" in the HD is the old insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalchef Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I concur with DeanDinosaur the Epic and Electric. Also Treadplate and Fireball models if u tweak the DEP and mix in low amounts of an OD Pedal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunpointmetal Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Treadplate with OD would be my best approximation if you want to use an amp....my Epic model sounds nowhere near as fizzy and ball-less as the insane model.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
