Pod Hd500 Preset Switch Latency

Hi,

 

i just got a POD HD500 with the latest firmware in my hands. I've noticed a latency when switching the presets. I've also read, that this is an issue when the device is conncetd to POD HD500 Edit software. But there is still a noticable latency when nothing is connected. Is there any opportunity to get rid off this?

 

Thanks

Daniel

There is going to be a slight latency (a few ms) when switching presets. This is unavoidable - the device needs to reload data (the new preset) into it's working memory and this process takes at least a small amount of time. In most cases it's not a problem but in some situations you may need to adjust your playing so that the latency is not noticeable. For instance, create a slight pause in your playing while switching presets.

I have measured 5msec of latency when you use the footswitches in ABCD mode. You will notice much less latency if you can use the footswitches in 1-8 mode instead. That is, only change patches/banks between songs. Within a song you have 8 footswitches available to provide the various sounds you need.
