No wonder so many people have been talking about leaving this place. Surely any number of you have heard from your own mother or someone else's mother "if you dont have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all".Īll the negativity that's perpetually fed day after day into this place is definitely not going to help it in any way shape or form. If it kills you to interact with other people in the world, perhaps you shouldn't. Is it really THAT hard to be a nice person? It seems pretty clear and simple to me that in order to put a foot in the right direction and productively make positive changes around this place maybe we should look at how WE contribute to this place instead of bashing on everyone who doesn't do exactly like we do. I fail to understand how continual smarmy, sarcastic, pompous and self-righteous attitudes are going to IMPROVE this forum that apparently is "going down hill" and "isn't what it used to be". How many of you HATED a teacher in school for acting EXACTLY as you treat "newbs" who haven't spent as much time in audio production as yourselves? Patience make for a good teacher no matter how many times you have to teach the same thing over and over. I fail to see how its productive to continue giving people a hard time and then complaining about the deterioration of this forum when its meant to be a learning place or rather that's what keeps us all coming back. There seems to be endless bitching moaning and complaining about anyone who asks for presets because they apparently don't follow your specified protocol in order to be an audio engineer. I'm not speaking on behalf of all pod owners, more so trying to make an obvious point. It works and it makes sense, or at least the multitude of pod owners who love them seem to think so, anyway. That is one of the MAIN SELLING POINTS of the product. I think it should be fairly obvious by now that the majority of pod users realize the tones aren't going to be identical to the originals but ITS A GREAT STARTING POINT in most cases, at least.
#Line 6 pod farm metal series
ESPECIALLY for the line 6 pod series which has a main selling point of being able to COPY TONES AND SOUNDS from different setups. For me, it's nothing like playing one of my amps.I've read a lot of complaints on this forum from "veteran" or "long-term" members regarding the amount of people asking for help with tones. it just gets louder or softer for the most part. The POD (or at least the XT) is like a static filter that just colors everything the same. But nothing really close to what I want - and, after many hours of experimental probing and knob-twisting - no promise that I will ever find a way to trick it into what I want.Īt the bottom of that is a very pronounced lack of responsiveness to playing approach and technique. Stuff that comes within a long throw, maybe. So it's with real disappointment that I have to report that, for me, and the tones I like, the POD offers pretty close to nothing. But the idea of being able to dial up a range of tones quickly, store, and recall. I have a few amps, a Blues Jr, a Lexicon Signature 284 low power rack amp, a couple funky low-end 40 and 50 year old jobs. The idea of such a device is, to me, golden. And when I say exploring, I mean really pushing, prodding and twisting every nob on pretty much every patch. "A few years back, a pal parked his POD XT with me and I've now spent several long evenings exploring every patch. I found here ( ), the words to describe what I don't like in the POD FARM amps and overdrive effects (most of them) (from theblue) :
