Seems like the value you get out of these vs. some of these newer boxes like the Stomp XL is just... shocking. I mean sure the hd500x is older but it has more I/O and honestly the tones sound better out of the box and you can get them for like 1/3 the price of the more modern boxes. Doesn't make any sense lol
Nice demo. I am using the HD 500 for some years now for at-home-practicing and recording demos in my DAW. Ive dialed in a nice Plexi tone and tweaked the Cabs and microphones to get a nice tone. Then routed a reverb, tape delay, booster and the RAT simulation to the footswitch: Thats it. Everything I need to have to be lucky.
Great Demo. Although this has been around for awhile, I just got mine. Maybe the quality of recording or I need new speakers, but some of these patches sounded like shit. Others pretty good. I like the clean and distortion sound I get out of my amp (Blackstar HD 60).. so would only use the board if I were looking for a particular tone in a song or artist. The fact that you can get thousands of patches makes it pretty cool. I'll have fun playing around with this. Can't wait to override some of those factory presets.. haha
Hey u54 m just use it in stompbox mode, inside eight switches turn effects on and off. Use your black star for AMP tones. It also gives you a tuner, wah, looper, and interface with headphones out.
The age of the gear doesn't matter. In the hands of an accomplished player, a '59 Strat and a '65 blackface Twin can make magic. In the hands of a young idiot who thinks Jack White is God, not so much. The skill of the player is what counts.
Real nice of you telling the route of the signal - for me it would have been even still better if you (also) completed the path by telling name of sound-card and the way out of same (and thus into my ears) But . . thanks for a good demonstration. Best regards Torben, DK
I’m really tempted to get this , but I know I shouldn’t as I have some decent pedals, so won’t be doing any justice to them and the analog sound is more real and natural to one’s own playing.
Nice demo Roman, I like the way you do your demos, very clean and shows product clearly. Have you played around with MIDI guitar and Roland GR-55? That's what I use, would like to see good demo of that thing -- pretty massive also.
Sorry for the stupid question. I never played with a Line 6 pedalboard. My dying Vox 3000X (of what I probably use 2% of it's capabilities...) gives me the chance of changing the presets or create new ones and them naming and placing them in any orther I want, like Bank 1 slot 1 to 4 then Bank 2 slot 1 to 4. Does this pedalboard allows the same?
Nice but I thought this one comes with a pedal, where is it? Is this a different model? I wonder the model with the pedal aND what you can do with it...ow... I see this is the PODHD50
Been waiting for good run down as I have one, how did you plug into computer. Be good for recording?? I do like my pedals on a tube amp. Just lucky to get hold of one off these podhd500
shnobel thanks mate. I really want to start using garage band to try some practice playing. Be easy to just use the board and no amp. From Australia really like your videos.
@@ramiropeserico7434 thanks. Such an iron maidenish sound.. But I believe they usually get that effect playing the same pattern on two guitars in different octave am I right?
My first impression is that you might or should have hit the display button to show which patch number is associated with each sound your playing. It's there but so small, hard to see without a magnifying glass, I can't tell by the display showing looks like a bunch of gobblydegook. Is it 1 a-D to 16 a-D? Second impression.. as with so many factory floor peddle gear always with too many heavy overdrive presets and too many with very over the top distortion. And the FS 1 thru 8 controls... I assume each of the peddle sims in the box? I wonder why they don't group these better... either A & B sort of clean going to high gain in C & D or whole patch groups of clean then same for OD and Mod effects? I can see it might take like months of tweaking to get something really useful and easy to access for each individual player. But, watched the whole vid through, very appreciated.
If you need more expensive .for basics there all good..hd 500x great set your patches tammer Les woggle warp then good make more tame playable then awsome😮
Pumped! Just bought one for $150 here in 2024.

Does it have a harmonist effect like the PS6?
Thank you! Mr. Hawkeye !. : ))
Should have used an E-Bow though ;P
@@w.joseph3751 Haha, maybe next time :)
This is the first thing I did when I got this unit.....somehow it sounded better when he did it=). Great demo, bravo!
Really good after adjusted patches bit hen😮
Great sounds, well played
It could just be your playing but I'm really impressed with the tones
I love it when you hit the weird stuff. the crazy ambient patches just stop you in your tracks.
I still have mine and it still rocks!!! Thanks for this great demonstration. Liebe Grüße aus Bayern, Deutschland.

Thank you sir Daniel Craig!
LOL!! :) love how you go through them patches!
4:55.......I like how it has that Leslie speaker effect.
Great demo of a now aging piece of gear that can still produce good results. Could you share your patches? Thanks

These are fantastic patches, I love how you subtly cover a huge variety of sound and different needs! any chance you can share them? Thanks!
These are the default patches that come factory-loaded on the HD500.
I know I'm kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good place to stream newly released tv shows online ?

@Jad Brayden Thank you, signed up and it seems like a nice service =) I really appreciate it!!
@Cristiano Nathanael No problem xD
6:33 ame este sonido
This is a real demo!
Good demo! Helix have to be next! ;-)
Un tutorial perfecto! Gracias.
3:45 he went from one of the worst sounds to what I think is the best sound on the POD HD 500, the Big Hall.
I’m really tempted to get this , but I know I shouldn’t as I have some decent pedals, so won’t be doing any justice to them and the analog sound is more real and natural to one’s own playing.
Clint Barton can shred
Nice vid but man clean that fretboard
Leo started using rosewood fretboards because he hated how the maple looks when it wears. FYi.

good review deffo a police fan !!
5.40 the tone was awesome..!!
Reminds me of U2
cool
pretty natural
4:11 Ah, playing a tribute to Andy Summers, are we? #messageinabottle
Think I'll stick with my valve amp with kick ass distortion pedal threw the clean chanel
Be honest….. how many thought he was starting a song by the police??
Well done sir
On 5:00 how did he create that organ sound? Great review 👍👍👍👍
That organ sound was a factory preset.
WTF?! Didn't you die on The Avengers?
Play riff guitar hits slow rock🙏 ...with pod hd 500
Sorry for the stupid question.

Does this pedalboard allows the same?
Watching this in 2017!
Isn't there a pedal in addition to the switches? What does it do, a wah wah?
Nice but I thought this one comes with a pedal, where is it? Is this a different model? I wonder the model with the pedal aND what you can do with it...ow... I see this is the PODHD50

i went out of left and right into my sound card which is the Apogee Quartet
shnobel thanks mate. I really want to start using garage band to try some practice playing. Be easy to just use the board and no amp. From Australia really like your videos.
How do you setting harmonist sound...?
Surprised by its OD sounds.
The sounds are ordinary fuzzy-artificial sounding. But Shnobel's playing is really great to demo this product.
Does hd 400 and 500 sound similar or lot of different?
we need the helix video!!
6:35 what effect it is?
Octaver with stereo delay and a little bit of chorus
@@ramiropeserico7434 thanks. Such an iron maidenish sound.. But I believe they usually get that effect playing the same pattern on two guitars in different octave am I right?
@@casualprogrammer yes
Awesome man , could you share your patches ?
Andy Summers' son, ¿reality or myth?
get humming on my head phones what to do ...on 1A SON OF PLEXI
Muito bom meu amigo, se possivel faça da gt 100 boss.

Hello, is it possible to record Input guitar and input mic in the same time ? Or do we need another sound card ? Thanks
It's possible.
i died when i listened to 3:50
Hey can you please tell me which is better Gt-100 or HD500? I mostly play classic rock and bluesy stuff and I like more treble sounds not digital...
Some say HD 500
Several say GT 100
If you need more expensive .for basics there all good..hd 500x great set your patches tammer Les woggle warp then good make more tame playable then awsome😮
@@rikkydavidson1762 that was 5 years ago lol, i already got gt 100 and loved it
Still using with mesa boogie mark v 25 for effects

In a amp??4 cables?? Or What?

some of those effects sound like shit toys from toys r us. some sound legit.
Not the best multi effects pedal then.
I really wonder whats in the head of those reviewers, that produce one shitty tone after the other. Get to use the device in a useful way!
