voxman55 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Just posted on The GearPage, but well worth repeating here too I think! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yees!! Very nicely done guys & thanks so much to the whole L6 team for all the hard work to get these enhancements to us! The footswitch & snapshot enhancements are a God-send for gigging, and love the option to use FS7/8 for scrolling banks, presets or snaphots, - again brilliant for gigging, as is the additional volume control parameters and the favourite settings feature is terrific. Plus of course it's always nice to have some new amp/fx models too - esp looking forward to trying out the Mandarin Rocker. Now, if you could just add an ice cold beer tap in v1.40, PG will be perfect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveyball Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 This is now complete for me, gigged with the Go first time last weekend, and this update just puts the icing on the cake to a brilliant unit. Can't wait to try again this weekend I'm a Helix owner as well, but for the band I play in the Go Wireless is perfect and so much more portable. The snapshots were an issue but not anymore with the labeling. I'm going to get the Mission pedal I think, I can see me using that as well. Top job guys :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EuanGMason Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 The backup dialog won't load during the update process. I get "Backup dialog failed to load. Click OK to retry." I can't get past this bug to install the new firmware. I have the 1.3 version of PodGo Edit installed. Anyone else have this problem? What's the fix?

I just miss the improved Glitch Delay with the ability to set the 2 note intervals. Hopefully, this will be in a future update. Thanks a lot.

Try rebooting your computer and then running PG Edit again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterJoeDa Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Just installed Update 1.30 and everything went smooth except one thing... I can no longer get back to the SNAPSHOTS screen!!! I had this same issue when I installed the last update as well but after restarting the Pod Go and tinkering with it I was eventually able to get back to the snapshots mode. Here's what is happening: When I try to select a patch it is supposed to show the 4 snapshots on the screen. When I tap the button or click on a given patch in the software it no longer switches to the screen where the 4 snapshots are selectable. Instead it just keeps switching from preset to preset loading whatever snapshot the patch is programed to load up. I can't switch snapshots because it just keeps going from preset to preset. I've tried... Turning it on and off several times. Unplugging the power and usb cables and counting to 10. I tried turning it on in stomp mode and then switching to snapshot mode. I use snapshots more than anything else and love that we can now name them! HELP PLEASE!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is usually the first reply I see to every Helix update so it must apply here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried re-installing PodGo Edit 1.2, but no go. I then tried the Line 6 firmware updater, and that worked, but if course with no back up. I re-installed PodGo Edit 1.3, and then tried to back up, but nothing happens when you choose back up from the menu. The updated stuff is visible and usable after the firmware update, without the factory reset recommended by Line 6, but it's a bit disconcerting to not be able to back up anything.

Just guessing here but this sounds a lot like you are just in Stomp mode and need to hit the MODE switch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterJoeDa Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Yes, that was the first thing I did. I'm going to try doing a factory reset tomorrow morning and then loading the back up file. Fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried contacting support and get "no one is available at this time"! I have a gig tonight!!! How do I fix this!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveyball Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 So are you coming out of stomp mode into snap, and then holding the 2 left hand buttons down at the same time. If you have the option in Global settings/ switched and pedals/up down switched, turn the know to presets. I had to do the same after upgrade also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterJoeDa Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I was able to get the issue resolved after contacting support. I was not aware that to get to the snapshots screen the bank up/down buttons needed to be pressed together. Thank you everyone for helping! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It turns out that the fix is to run PodGo Edit in Windows administrator mode. This should be included in on-line instructions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pod Go is a great piece of gear, but it isnt plug and play and there is a lot of help you can get from the manual and vids to help you get the best from it.

wagdog Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 This update is amazing! Naming snapshots and renaming the buttons is awesome! I especially like be able to rename the “multiple(2)” buttons. Diving in over the next few nights oughta be fun! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodandtears Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 If I choose to have the Volume control just control the Amp Out.. what value will the Main Out be set at? 12 o'clock?? and vice versa I guess... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess Max volume. That's the same it was before when it only controlled Main, Amp Out would be at full volume, I think. The point of that is that you're giving the "uncontrolled" signal the maximum signal-to-noise ratio, and leaving the volume control to the sound guy (which, ideally, should have a good grasp on how to handle your high volume signal.. although, from what I've seen, that's not always the case).

jbird5150 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 MasterJoDa, I'm having the same issue after the update. Support hasn't been helpful. Can you tell me what you did to get the snapshots working the right way again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterJoeDa Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Yes, it was something that was in the manual and not obvious to me. After, doing a factory reset and reloading my back up I couldn't figure out how to get back to the snapshots screen. The fix: Press the UP & DOWN arrows on the left at the same time.

Okay, I did that and I'm able to scroll through the snapshots of each preset using the UP and DOWN arrows. But previously, when I selected a preset, I was able to see ALL the snapshots for that preset on the screen at once and select which one I wanted using the A, B, C, and D switches. Now I can't do that. I have to use the up and down buttons to select each snapshot. Now, this is not a deal breaker. I can adjust. But the thing is this: Say I'm on snapshot 1 and I want to switch to snapshot 3 mid-song. Previously all I had to do was select the switch for snapshot 3, whatever it was (A, B, C, D) and bam I'm right there. Now I have to "scroll" through snapshot 2 to get to snapshot 3 using the up and down arrows, which isn't optimal. Make sense? Also, the snapshots are now coming up with a letter "E" next to their name, which is new. Not sure what that's all about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I have to "scroll" through snapshot 2 to get to snapshot 3 using the up and down arrows, which isn't optimal. Make sense? There's 2 different actions: - if you're in any mode where you can see Bank/Preset/Snapshot Up+Down and you press Up+Down at the same time for a few seconds, you'll swap between switching Banks, Presets or Snapshots (so, if you're in Bank Up+Down, you'll go to Preset Up+Down, and so on). You can also configure this directly in Global Settings > Switches/Pedals > Up/Down Switches. - if you're either in Stomp Mode or Snapshot Mode and you press very briefly Up+Down you'll switch to the other mode (so, if you're in Preset Mode, you'll switch to Snapshot Mode, and vice-versa). It's this last one that you want. But you have to be in Stomp Mode. If you're in Preset Mode (where you see the 4 Presets from the current Bank), then you need to press the Mode button to get into Stomp or Snapshot Mode. Quote Also, the snapshots are now coming up with a letter "E" next to their name, which is new. Not sure what that's all about. This just means that you changed something to the preset and haven't saved it yet. If you save it (or switch to another preset and come back, discarding the change), it will disappear.

lev_kusanagi Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 @Digital_Igloo hi! thanks for the update. In the recent Andertons shootout, the Pod Go sounded consistently dark despite attempts to tweak settings to remedy. I doubt this is a problem with the hardware, could you shed some light if perhaps the Pod Go wasn't properly set up and hence the consistently dark tone? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voxman55 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I've had my Pod Go 18 mths and its brilliant. There's no issue at all with Pod Go sounding dark...it can be as bright or as sparkling as you need. It must be only to do with settings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voxman55 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 @lev_kusanagiNo idea. But I did a short audio clip of a patch I created for a bit of fun. This used an amp model suggested by someone else that wouldn't normally have occurred to me to show the power of Pod Go and what you can do with a single patch using snap shots and stomp options. It goes from funk and jazz to Led Zep and Rush rock tones. I'll leave you to decide if it's too dark! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
