POD GO wireless/cable

[slihic]

Hi,

I bought recently POD go wireless and still discovering it.

Mostly use it through a PA with my pop-rock band of 7 people. Still struggling with the levels ranging from "too loud" to "not enough"

But overall I'm happy with it.

 

I tried both wireless and cable and the sound is different. Wireless gives more highs and clarity on same presets.

 

Am I right ? How to make them equal ?

 

Thanks for input

With cable, depending on the quality and length of your cables, you may experience some degree of highs being rolled off a little.  With wireless, it depends on what system you are using. Some will allow optional settings that allow you to emulate your cable tone. Others might be set to emulate a fixed 10m cable e.g. my Line 6 G10 Relay does this. 

 

But certain wireless options, e.g. the G10, act as a buffer that gives a clearer, brighter tone.  With a cable you can place e.g. any Boss stomp pedal in front of Pod Go that even turned off will act as a buffer. 

 

Currently, there is concern by some Pod Go users that it's single one size fits all impedance is creating some difficulties here. I believe that Line 6 are looking into this.

 

You might also want to experiment with the Pod Go's 'instrument' and 'line' options to see if this might help.

I use G10 that comes with "POD go wireless" option (costs 150.- more).

 

Compared to cable (tried 3m, several ones, all good),  wireless definitely sounds brighter.

 

As I first made my presets with cable, I wasn't sure whether to consider this as bug or feature.

 

Ps.

In global settings/ wireless, the option "cable tone" is also set to 3m.

Probably it's story about buffer
