Your global eq settings made my favorite patches sound amazing. All the overdrive/distortion sounds had some really bad fizzy digital sound to them. None of the tweaking I did with the amp preamp or drive settings helped as much. Thank you for making these videos!

Sweet tones! I'm being stubborn about getting the Helix; don't want to shell out $1500, so I'm battling with my hd500x. I *know* this unit is capable of very respectable tonal quality as evidenced by your video and countless others that I have seen. Oh hell, maybe I should just commission someone with a Gibson Les Paul to create some presets for me...
@sheronmusician7 жыл бұрын
carabidus thank you for your comment. I've been struggling with this for a long time. Finally got it right with the global EQ thing. I did end up buying the Helix but I refuse to let the 500x go as it is IMHO ahead of it's time.
@carabidus7 жыл бұрын
OK, so I went back and adjusted the global EQ exactly as described in the video. Sheron, I cannot believe what a difference that made! Before the adjustments, my tone sounded lifeless as if giant pillows were pressed against the speakers. I almost gave up on the POD, but now my tone sounds on par with the more expensive modelers that I've previewed. Anyone on a budget should seriously watch this video and consider a POD in lieu of a Kemper or Axe FX. Your EQ adjustments puts the POD in an entirely different league. Cheers!

So, how can edit this if I'm not using the 4 cable method live? I only run the pod throuth the effects loop. I want to edit what I made years ago but 2 of my knobs for editing on the pedal are bugged so I am unable too. I'm hoping I can find a work around I'm going to plug it into my computer now

@sheronmusician7 жыл бұрын
Cathal Burke the clean and dirty channels on a given amp are separate modules so I don't think it's doable. You can however add one clean and one dirty module and turn them on and off as needed. On the Helix you could assign one switch for this job, on the 500x you'll need two.

Been thinking of getting the hd500x, it's for 400$ new over here. Although, have heard a lot about really hard times with this unit about getting your own sound. I have already used a multi effect before, and some of pc softwares like amplitube etc... You think there should be a problem? The helix is way too expensive, if it's says that's I need to sit and change the setting for 10 more minutes I rather that than add 1200$
@sheronmusician6 жыл бұрын
Or Wiess the 500x is a wonderful unit but it can’t be compared to the Helix in almost any way. If you use my global EQ settings or similar settings your sounds will be easier to program. If you can spend more I would recommend the Helix LT rather. It is newer than the 500x and will also be supported for longer. Not to mention that the sounds are just WAY better.

do these global eq's work when pushing through an amp rather than PC speakers?
@sheronmusician6 жыл бұрын
Jamie Bradbury I don’t see why not, however, imho, I’m not sure why you’d need the EQ if you’re coming out of the 500x into an amp and then mic’ing it up? The whole idea behind this EQ settings is to better emulate the amp/cab/mic/cable/preamp/EQ settings of a live PA situation. As I haven’t used an amp in a live gig in years, these settings helped me get a better and more consistent sound though the PA. If you’re still using an amp I hardly think it’ll be of that much use for you? But try it and let me know?
