siddharthsinha Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 I connected the POD Go the the fx return of a marshall tube amp (connected to a cab speaker) via the AMP OUT in POD GO. The result was horrible! sounded as though there was no cab modelling at all! Any tips?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_m Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Under Global Settings>Ins/Outs>Amp Out Source, you can set the Amp Out to be “Main Out”, which copies the tone coming from the main outs, or “Pre Cab/IR”, which taps off a signal right before cab/IR block. So if you’re not hearing any cab modeling, it’s would be set to “Cab/IR”. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's your problem, you don't want to set it to "Pre cab/IR", if you do, you bypass the cab emulation as well as any effects after the cab. You want to set it to "main out" if you're going to use Go's "amp out" to the "FX return" of your Marshall. And as mentioned, yeah go 4 cable method is best method!
