Wow man what a fully comprehensible guide! The use of simple explanations and tips go a long way for new PodGo owners. Your tone is also very easy on the ears lol Thank you very much for taking the time to create this for us 🙏
Thank you so much for making this video. You have done a wonderful job explaining all the many important aspects and details of this machine. You have helped me understand the process and inspired me to create. Thank you. Everyone with a pod go should watch this video.
This is the most humbling comment to receive on the channel, thank you SO much for this. It validates my ministry and I hope I'll be this useful for musicians as long as the Lord allows me to make videos.
I’ve had my Pod Go for about 3 months or so, and have been so confused and honestly lost much of the time, I just put it away. I’m an old school guy who played in bands all through the 70’s. I played a Strat, through a Marshall half stack with a wah wah, fuzz and another pedal or two. There was no internet or cab sims it pretty IR’s(which I still don’t understand) Told the wife I must have a brain tumor. :) I retired a couple of years ago and started playing again after about 30 yr absence from playing. I thought the PodGo was the way to go, since it sounded really good and didn’t look too difficult. I mean I am an educated individual with a degree and ran a district office for a Fortune 500 company for many years..But my 68yr old brain feels like it just doesn’t work anymore..! Your video is so great, very informative, and down to earth. I sat and watched it through twice. Now I am going to sit down with my amp, a Boss Kantana MK2, guitars, and see if I can replicate this fantastic sounding preset you’ve shown here. There are still a few things I’m not sure of, like the Snapshot thing, compared to an octopus in the user guide. I want to be able to set and use 2-4 presets with different sounds for different songs, being able to look down at the screen and select my preset, play and move back and forth between them with the foot switch. I wonder if it’s possible to make a preset as yours is, select it and be able to turn off an on the different pedals as your while using that one preset. Then select yet another preset and do the same…I like to he a Wah Wah in one of the presets too. I apologize for going on and on, I’m really looking forward to getting into this PodGo and jamming with some former bandmates from days gone by….Once more great video and Thanks again…..!
Thank you for watching and sharing your story, I can only hope that I'll be playing guitar with such passion by the time I reach those years of my life. It's all about familiarisation which only comes by using the gear on a regular basis. If I had access to a Boss Katana, I'd definitely give it a shot to get a Sunday-ready tone on it! Keep on keeping on! I'm sure you're going to rock with that POD Go!
I just go my pod go last week. Things can get pretty overwhelming with the choices one can make, and learning how to navigate system. My brother helped me out to make some reallly good worship block, He probably may have even seen this video come to think about it 😂, but I just want to say thank you for providing a very comprehensive template on how to get things started on your own.
Welcome to the wonderful world of the Line 6 ecosystem! Once you get used to it, it's endless fun and hours of tweaking. Thank you for watching, and I'm glad it was helpful to get you started!
The hardest part for someone like myself is that I have only ever used floor modelers (Pod Go and Helix), so a lot of the minutia is somewhat over my head. I usually buy presets from Worship Tutorials, Alex Guitar, Tone Junkies, or you, and then tweak them to taste. I've never been able to create a patch from scratch that sounded decent. Side note: When you added that transistor tape, it totally changed the personality of that patch. Wow! Loved your tip on the swell reverb as well! I'm going to use that.
I hear you. You might like next week's upload, I'm doing something called the "Factory Settings Challenge" where I only use the stock settings pulled up for every block (you might be surprised!). And yes, the Transistor Tape is my FAV delay block in the Helix. That's probably due to Andy Timmons' influence on my choices of tone where he used to have a pair of Echoplexes in stereo. What a tone!
This was great Justin! I have watched your previous video of making a patch and I now use that as my primary patch at church and when I create a new patch, I use your settings as a starting point and make adjustments as needed. Thank you again!
Justin, I just got done a little bit ago following along to your video with my pod go. Thank you so much for giving those of us who are more visual learners this tutorial. It is so much easier than reading a manual, which I know is both valuable and a lot of times required. However, the visual aspect really helped! Thank you again!
I'm glad it helped and was useful for you! It's all I ever want to achieve in my videos. I hope you have a firmer grasp on your own tweaking methodology after this!
Thank you for this video .. will have to watch it many of times since I am a slow learner but I almost gave up on my pod go and sold because i felt frustrated,,thank you
You’re welcome, and I hope I’ve encouraged you that it is possible to get a ton of tone out of the POD Go, it takes a lot of practice! Keep on keeping on!
Honestly just awesome! I just got a guitar and pod go and have no experience (as a former drummer) in what does what in the guitar world. This is a great start and would have not thought of using the computer as it seemed like a pain in the butt. Thanks for a great video!
Thank you for the kind words, and welcome to the wonderful world of electric guitar! I came from an engineering background where tweaking parameters on a screen was my bread and butter, so it came quite naturally to me.
I have followed this step by step. The delay isn’t doing anything on either setting. and the ambient is off when the light is on and off when the light is on. What did I do wrong?! Thank you so much for this video. May 2024 be full of blessings and good health. Help a brother out internet. What did I do wrong? I’m gonna delete the patch and start over. Another question the compressor and the delay are not mapped to a stomp does that mean they should always be active in the signal chain? PS I know these are rookie questions but I gotta say line 6 editor is infinitely easier to use than my previous multi effects unit. So glad I upgraded. Now I just need it to work. And yes I did update the firmware
So I started over and got it to work. Who knows what I did the first time. This was great not only to use in PW but also a build crafting exercise. As someone who strictly played acoustic for 25+ years and only got my first elec 2 years ago pedals and patches can be intimidating. No more. Thank you.
So sorry I just got around to reading this! I'm glad it worked out. Yes, sometimes I need to restart a preset build when something just isn't working. I've caught the offending parameter sometimes (like my kid accidentally assigning the noise gate threshold to the expression pedal so toe down at volume 100% the gate is also clamping down hard). A blessed new year and God bless you and your family too!
@@AllAboutWorshipGuitar I was contemplating a Fender Pinwheel, but at $300, it's price is a significant portion of the Pod Go. However, I'm looking for a *really good* (flexible) rotary speaker effect. I'm looking forward to your video.
Hi, thanks for watching and for the kind words! I don't have a Firehawk, but I can see if I can find someone who has one and plan a video. It's in the pipeline, if I can secure one!
A decent pair of headphones. Actually, even a pair of higher end multimedia speakers, like the Mackie CRX series, is decent. The key is in getting used to the tone and correlating its characteristics through the speakers in real life (e.g. if the treble is too much on the CRX, it's just right in the mix).
That's going to be subjective, as the TL and BS definitely have their individual Strymon vibe that's hard for other pedals to replicate. That being said, I think the GFI Specular Reverb and Clockwork Delay come close, as do the JET Pedals Revelation and Eternity.
@@AllAboutWorshipGuitar I was talking about the delay and reverb inside the POD GO. If I was to get the pod go, I wanted to have a similar sound as the BS and TL. So since there is so many types of delays and reverbs in the POD GO, could you suggest me?
@kevgaming204 I misunderstood! The Glitz has a modulated reverb sound that can get close to the Bloom, but Dynamic Bloom just came out and I haven’t had time to check it out. It’s supposedly closer to the Bloom tone. The dTape on the TL is the bomb for me, and I felt like I could only get close by loading up the Vintage Digital, have a Kinky Boost in the chain, and then if DSP permits, a Retro Reel with some saturation. But those are all workarounds. There really is no substitute for the TL and BS, I think.
in the global settings, do I use my Amp out source as main out or precab/ir? I'm using the cab ir simulator and not using the actual amp. I'm plugging guitar -> pod go -> mixer
The amp out shouldn’t be used to send to the mixer, you should be using the main outputs. If you’re running an amp on stage for monitoring purposes, you would set the amp out to precab so the amp doesn’t get cab processing.
If you’re connected to a laptop, the audio can be routed to the POD Go as an audio device (both in and out), and connect your monitors to the outputs of the POD Go. If you’re not using a laptop, the Return can be configured as an Aux In. You’ll have to go into Globals and set the Return for that option first, then use a headphone adapter and an aux cable to wire in your audio source (like an iPod or an iPad).
hi! this is one of the most recent video I found about the pod go, I'd like to ask: did they improved/got rid of the sound cut when you change patches?? thanks
Hi! Thanks for stopping by. No unfortunately preset spillover is not possible on the POD Go, and it probably won’t be due to processor limitations. Even the Helix has to sacrifice an entire chip (cutting your DSP and signal paths in half) to achieve this.
If using in a live rig would you recommend your chain to be guitar>pod GO for effects>amp kind of like replacing a traditional pedalboard, or would you just go straight from the pod GO to mixer and not even use an amp??
I’d go straight to the FOH and not have an amp. But you could patch in an amp for personal monitoring using the Amp Out feature (there is a signal split point before the amp/cab).
I have an idea in my head; can one in theory have mix levels assigned to foot switches for more than just delay; IE; I want my signal chain (not including distortion options) always on BUT I want to be able to highlight (increase mix level) of the different effects. Example; I want some flange, delay and reverb in my stock sound BUT I want to be able to increase the mix options on those pedals. Additional could I do this with the amp; a low gain level and a high gain level. Does this make sense?
Yes you can! As long as the effect has a min/max value, you can set it with footswitches. The issue is if in changing the parameters, will there be a weird sound (the modulation level on the Retro Reel causes a slight pitch warble when switched). Always-on flange, now that’s a different sound!
@@AllAboutWorshipGuitar as follow up; I have set mix parameters for delay reverb and amp gain. I’m using the EQ as a lead boost just like your example. Still not settled on the last two openings. Any off the wall suggestions internet? I’ve messed around with phaser flange chorus and octave. I’m looking for something that is as much functional as it is quirky to fill those last two spots with options.
Yes you can, by using the “learn” function on the pedal. There’s an icon that looks like a brain. Enable that, press a button, and you should be able to go into the controller assignments and change mix levels.
God bless you too! If it's a stock Flying V with ceramic pickups, it's going to be hotter than a Les Paul. I don't know anyone near me with one though, so I'll have to find one in a shop somewhere!
Please share information to the beginner. How do you download your screen, how you actually have your guitar and amp hooked up, how to bypass the line 6 when you do not want effects, etc…,,
Hi Bret, it sounds like you’re using the POD Go together with an analog amp, which is a configuration I’ve not covered yet on the channel. Is this how you’re running your POD Go?
Let's face it, this is an Helix Lt Lt lol... Not in the pod family at all. Plus it has all the helix tones... Such amazing value in this pedal. You really couldn't want more if you don't need more pedals, though there are work arounds, it's still a mini helix idc what line 6 says lol.
Haha, indeed, it's very close to the Helix family but one generation behind. In fact I was a little disappointed the POD Express didn't follow some of the design from the POD Go!
Those would be custom Dimarzio's that were built for the guitar, but I'm told they are close to the Steve's Special in the bridge and the Evolution in the neck.
It's a matter of application, one is just louder than the other. I'll definitely go with line level when interfacing with the front of house, and instrument level if I have other pedals upstream from the POD Go (delays and reverbs, for instance).
good video....except for one thing....i followed your instructions very carefully and I ended up with no sound coming from my pod go (with recent 2.0 firmware update)....can't figure out what I did wrong....tried to go back several times to catch a few steps that were too quick to catch initially....getting fed up trying to use it and spending way too much time fiddling with settings than actually playing the guitar....suggestions/comments welcome...otherwise I'm going to sell it and go back to using amps...
Hi there, thanks for watching and sorry to hear that. Double check a few things. What’s the volume pedal setting? Sometimes I’ve saved a patch with volume at zero. Check the output block and the level dialed in. Sometimes accidentally assigning a control of the output volume can click it to -120dB (essentially muted). Then check the individual blocks as to whether the volume is zero. Sometimes we can accidentally drag the wrong slider, like the EQ volume slider, the cab output slider, etc.
Thank you for watching! It's all part of operator training and getting used to a workflow. The numbers will eventually mean something to you, and at a glance you'll "see" your settings and have a sense of how they sound in your head.
Oh it’s not entirely obsolete. The old cab engine was basically the mic stuck at the position zero (direct on cone), so this update allowed us to change the x-direction. Watch my other video and you’re covered 100%! th-cam.com/video/YX4b-UttYUw/w-d-xo.html

Hi there, thanks for watching and sorry to hear that. Double check a few things. What’s the volume pedal setting? Sometimes I’ve saved a patch with volume at zero. Check the output block and the level dialed in. Sometimes accidentally assigning a control of the output volume can click it to -120dB (essentially muted). Then check the individual blocks as to whether the volume is zero. Sometimes we can accidentally drag the wrong slider, like the EQ volume slider, the cab output slider, etc.
Need to be a computer programer to work it out. Why they make these units so hard for. They must loose alot of sales. But thank u for your time
Thank you for watching! It's all part of operator training and getting used to a workflow. The numbers will eventually mean something to you, and at a glance you'll "see" your settings and have a sense of how they sound in your head.
Annnnnd this video is obsolete after the 2.0 Update lol. Thanks Line 6
Oh it’s not entirely obsolete. The old cab engine was basically the mic stuck at the position zero (direct on cone), so this update allowed us to change the x-direction. Watch my other video and you’re covered 100%! th-cam.com/video/YX4b-UttYUw/w-d-xo.html
