medved_wanders Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Is there a sustain pedal effect in the PodGo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grdGo33 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Sustain pedals are basically compressors (compress sound; made low volume sounds loud), and in the Go appear under 'Dynamics'. I'm really not the expert in compressors, and I've not yet explored every one in the Go in detail, but there's a lot in the Go! Searching for 'best sustainers', the MXR Dyna Comp is often recommended as a sustainer, it's the "Red Squeeze" in Go. The Xotic SP compressor comes up (ex; "Really great as a sustain!", " doubles my sustain without altering my original tone "etc.), "kinky comp" in go, etc. Just playing quickly with some of them, I really like the Rochester Comp. But yeah there's a lot of choice! https://helixhelp.com/models/ This thread has a lot of info/comments on compressors: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cristt Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Not really, but it depends what you mean by "sustain"... maybe you are after that kind of guitar "freeze" sound like David Gilmour does? Check this video for the pod hd500 and just copy settings to the pod go. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright I un-downvoted you some of your posts but left a couple because you where just useless complaining and trolling, actually. I'm not downvoting you for each and every post like you are doing to me!! Or, if you will continue, I will too, for each of your posts, but I guess that would be pretty useless for each of us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cristt Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 oh well thank you grdgo33, I proposed you to calm this thing down, but I see you don't want. You just a troll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cristt Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Well you know what, I won't downvote each of your posts, it's just such a waste of time. Do your childish thing, I don't care. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason to downvote just because you don't agree with my posts...what's not to like of what I've answered about the sustain pedal thing?!?! You know that reputation goes down when you downvote...

There's more than a dozen types of compressors... Saying there's "not really" any sustain pedal in the Go is silly...! https://www.sustainpunch.com/guitar-sustain-pedals/ 30 minutes ago, cristt said: I don't know how to pm here. No reason to downvote just because you don't agree with my posts... ok bro, turns out I don't know how to PM here either... Since you had mass downvoted (7? Without even reading them all by your own admission? lol), I thought I'd also use the function to express my genuine disagreement with any of your comments as I encountered them. Didn't think you'd freak out at 2 since you handed out dislikes like candy... Now seems you've childishly downvoted a few more of my comments in retribution, but anyway, I'm not keeping score, just abide by the golden rule and we're good. (Treat others as you would like others to treat you). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Treat others as you would like others to treat you). "sustain" doesn't not mean "compressor pedal" straight, at all!! Sustain is just a characteristic that you may get from a compressor, if setup in a certain way. And I just offered my interpretation of what "sustain" could mean by the user. Don't know why this bothered you so much! I admittedly un-downvoted some of your comments, you don't even read. Yeah it was enough for me to see the star treck memes and the blatantly pseudo-insults of your posts to downvote, I think that was well enough. But again, I un-downvoted because I didn't want to go on with this thing, I'm downvoting also your post up here, see? I left some because you desearved it. Well, so far so good. Take care.
