LINE 6 POD 2.0 [19/97] Effects cabs

CONTROLS & CONNECTIONS

2 • 6

Effects/Cabs - This knob selects which effect or combination of effects

you get (once again, all the details on effects are in the POD Effects chapter).

New with Version 2.0 software, this knob also allows you to choose Cabinet

Models, and mix ’n’ match them with the Amp Models. To choose a Cabinet

Model, hold the TAP button and turn this knob; the available cabinets are labeled

in gray around the knob. Choosing an Amp Model will automatically select an

appropriate cabinet; you can customize this Amp/Cab pairing, as described in

Chapter 6.

Tuner - Button in the middle of the POD. Press that puppy and – shazam!

Instant digital chromatic tuner. All POD’s Amp Model and effects processing are

bypassed so you can hear those questionably-tuned strings clearly, should you

choose to do so. Play a note on your guitar and POD will show you what it is on

that handy single-character display; all notes are displayed as naturals or ﬂats, so

you’ll see A instead of G . Play that string you’re trying to tune again, spin its

tuning key so it goes sharp and ﬂat, and two little red arrows below the Tuner

button will give you a light show. The idea is that the left pointing arrow will light

if you’re sharp. The right pointing arrow will light if you’re ﬂat. And both arrows

will light at the same time when you’ve got it just right. Give any one of POD’s

buttons a push and the tuner disappears just as swiftly as it came and you’re right

back to normal POD operation.

Tuner Volume - You can adjust the tuning volume of your POD by turning the

Chan Vol knob while the tuner is active (this doesn’t affect the volume of your

not-in-tuner-mode POD sound). Alternatively, if you have a Floor Board

connected, the volume pedal will control the tuner volume, too.

Tuner Reference - Want a different reference than A=440Hz? When you’re in

the tuner mode, turn the Middle knob on POD while watching the display. Hey,

it changes! You can set the reference frequency anywhere from 436-445 Hz. This

setting is stored so you don’t have to reset it every time you turn on POD if you

decide you want to be different (or if that piano in your rehearsal room has

decided to be different). Since there’s only one digit in the POD display, all we

display is the last number, so if you set the tuner to reference 441 Hz, you’ll see “1”.
