Unlock POD Go

[Grosa33]

In several groups and on youtube, a preset is being shared that unlocks the blocks of POD GO. It is a risky operation that generates bugs that will denigrate the Line 6 brand. It is past time for you to unlock the blocks, as it is no longer a sales strategy. Some say that if unlocked, POD Go will become a Helix LT. This is not true as they are not comparable in terms of DSP capacity.

You are referring to JSON script re-writes in a patch file. This isn't a firmware hack so should have no risk to Pod Go other than some work better than others and some might give odd behaviours but only in that patch.  Line 6 are fully aware of these patch 're-writes' and have issued no warning not to use these. Whether Line 6 'blocks' this in v1.40 we'll have to wait & see.

 

Line 6 are fully aware that more & more users are requesting 2 extra patches but they are extremely reluctant to do this because it increases the amount of 'grey outs' users will see, and it has a very fixed view of what it wants Pod Go to do and not do.  Although Line 6 say the place to show support for this is in Ideascale, there are so few Pod Go customers who appear to know about Ideascale this seems a very ineffective approach so I'm not really sure how we can best demonstrate the very strong customer support for this.  There are quite a number of posts on here about this from various folk including myself, so there is clearly a desire for this enhancement but unfortunately Line 6 doesn't generally go by posts on forums.

 

When posting you need to do so in normal text - for some odd reason your post appears as a scroll line which is difficult to read & is likely to be missed, as I nearly did.  Please could you therefore go back in to your post and change this so folk can read this more easily. .
