I got me a POD XT
Moderator: Shoshanah Marohn
Tommy,
are your PodXT settings available to the forum?
I am quite happy to create a "vault" with submitted PodXt settings right here on the forum.
(I did something similar for Nic du Toit in the Tablature section for BLANK TAB SHEETS.
Those balnk sheets are availble to everyone on the forum. Just have a look there how I did that.)
I already have a fair amount of PodXT sounds, but your sounds could be a great addition for the forum!

Tommy R. Butler,
there is no Dobro effect on the PodXT.
Someone will have to create it and possibly make it available through the Forum, as I suggested above.
Any Takers?

BTW, those who are looking at pod's should definitely check out the Vox Tonebox's. They come in 2 flavors. Like the Pod, but has an actual tube as part of the pre-amp so you get a real tube sound. The effects are much warmer sounding than on the Pod to my ears. I also like the interface better: you are actually dialing in your settings like a real amp.
The version I got has 2 expression pedals which can be programmed for what ever you want. I use one for volume and the other for wah.

John,
Should be there. If you're still having a
problem, drop me an email. The videos using
the PODxt are also on my site shown below.

Tommy B., Peter is correct in saying the POD does not come from the Line 6 factory with a Dobro sounding preset. I have developed one that I provide as a part of my “Tones” when I sell someone a POD XT. Does it sound just like a Dobro, a Beard, a Sheerhorn, or any other acoustic slide resonator. NO! But, it is an electronic emulation that sounds fairly close and will satisfy some (if not most) of the less discriminating ears in the audience. When I get a call to do a Dobro session here in Atlanta I carry a Dobro D60, a Flinthill, and a Melobro 8-stringer in to the studio. Also, in the car is my pedal steel and POD. If the producer wants “pedal type” changes, I go the car! If I am trying to cop a Dobro lick on a particular song on a live gig it’s a lot easier to reach over for a knob on my POD rather than having to set up, tune up, and try to mic an acoustic resonator.
Like I said earlier, the POD is my “steel guitar Swiss army knife”. Not everyone likes handling sharp instruments.
Your mileage may vary……….

Yes I realise that Tommy D. created a Resonater sound. The only problem is that it is not (yet) available to people who purchased their PodXTs before Tommy D. started to sell PodXts and brackets. Or people who bought theirs overseas.
That is the reason why I offered to create a "vault" for PodXt sounds right here on the Forum.
All I need is a couple of sound contributions from other PodXT owners, add my own collection, and I am ready to go.

John McClung, Behringer makes small inexpensive mixers that are good for running a home stereo receiver into along with a POD, for headphone listening. I run a stereo cord from the earphone jack of the stereo into the mixer. That allows me the flexibility of adjusting the stereo volume with it's volume knob. Into that receiver I run a CD player, radio, phono, TV and DVD player. So I can play along with any of that stuff, with the stereo speakers in or out.
Previously I ran my steel volume pedal directly into the mixer. But through the headphones it was an unpleasant trebly harsh sound that was no fun. My POD XT solved that pretty well. By using it with the Twin amp model and 1x15 speaker model, I can get it to sound pretty good and realistic through the headphones.
My guitar amps are tubes, so I don't need the POD amp and speaker models when playing live. I just use the POD for reverb and other effects. I find that real tube amps sound noticeably better than the POD models live. However, the POD tube amp models do make solid state amps sound better. Also, I have used the amp and speaker models for recording, with fair results - not quite as good as a real tube amp and speaker, but pretty close.

I got to use my pod in the studio last night. I was at a very good Ft. Worth area Pro Tools studio doing some radio jingles. The engineer/owner was a bit skeptical at first, but when he pulled me up in the monitors he was pleasantly surprised. I used the 65-twin model with 2-12 blackface cabinet model, the 421 mic model and a bit of delay. I am crazy about this thing. I'm now anxious to get in my studio and really tweak my sounds. Thanks again Tommy for the heads up.

That's the same amp/cabinet/mic setting I started with also.
After a little tweeking (in the parameteric EQ etc.)
I got it to sound pretty darn close to my old
original '65 Twin Reverb.

Those little mixers are about the best favor you can do yourself, in my opinion. Run your TV into it for practice videos, your stereo, tape deck, CD player, record out to your computer, keep your tuner hooked up, separate your signal so you don't have to reverb your overdrive (or vice-versa) and on and on. I got a six-channel Samson for $85 because the tone controls sounded better than Behringer's, but any way it's a bargain for how versatile it is. There's no point in buying another amp just because it has a CD input or a tuner, when a mini-mixer will make all the stuff you already have work together better.

Earnest, I used a D-10 MSA Millennium with True Tone PUs. Goodrich L120 Vol. ped. Ernie Ball cables and the POD. The engineer plugged me into an Avalon mike pre and then straight to Pro Tools.
I also got to use the POD live for the first time this weekend. Guitar to volume pedal to POD and out of POD to power amp in of two NV112s. Best tone to my ears that I have ever had live.

Let me tell you I attended the show Johnny played this last weekend and He Killed 'em. Best steel playing I've heard. Tone to the bone and the little NV112's cut through the mix with headroom to spare. Super job Johnny. No leg humping, but have to tell you it was simply great.

Hey guys I have pod 2.0. Have not had much time to mess with it. I bought it used and some guitar player had some awful stuff programmed into it. I am not an electronic nut so I really dont know much about it. How can I get the instructions for programming this thing with some decent sounds?
Thanks
Douglas Hudson
