Seems like the value you get out of these vs. some of these newer boxes like the Stomp XL is just... shocking. I mean sure the hd500x is older but it has more I/O and honestly the tones sound better out of the box and you can get them for like 1/3 the price of the more modern boxes. Doesn't make any sense lol
Nice demo. I am using the HD 500 for some years now for at-home-practicing and recording demos in my DAW. Ive dialed in a nice Plexi tone and tweaked the Cabs and microphones to get a nice tone. Then routed a reverb, tape delay, booster and the RAT simulation to the footswitch: Thats it. Everything I need to have to be lucky.
Nice demo Roman, I like the way you do your demos, very clean and shows product clearly. Have you played around with MIDI guitar and Roland GR-55? That's what I use, would like to see good demo of that thing -- pretty massive also.
Great Demo. Although this has been around for awhile, I just got mine. Maybe the quality of recording or I need new speakers, but some of these patches sounded like shit. Others pretty good. I like the clean and distortion sound I get out of my amp (Blackstar HD 60).. so would only use the board if I were looking for a particular tone in a song or artist. The fact that you can get thousands of patches makes it pretty cool. I'll have fun playing around with this. Can't wait to override some of those factory presets.. haha
The age of the gear doesn't matter. In the hands of an accomplished player, a '59 Strat and a '65 blackface Twin can make magic. In the hands of a young idiot who thinks Jack White is God, not so much. The skill of the player is what counts.
Real nice of you telling the route of the signal - for me it would have been even still better if you (also) completed the path by telling name of sound-card and the way out of same (and thus into my ears) But . . thanks for a good demonstration. Best regards Torben, DK
Been waiting for good run down as I have one, how did you plug into computer. Be good for recording?? I do like my pedals on a tube amp. Just lucky to get hold of one off these podhd500
shnobel thanks mate. I really want to start using garage band to try some practice playing. Be easy to just use the board and no amp. From Australia really like your videos.
I’m really tempted to get this , but I know I shouldn’t as I have some decent pedals, so won’t be doing any justice to them and the analog sound is more real and natural to one’s own playing.
Nice but I thought this one comes with a pedal, where is it? Is this a different model? I wonder the model with the pedal aND what you can do with it...ow... I see this is the PODHD50
Sorry for the stupid question. I never played with a Line 6 pedalboard. My dying Vox 3000X (of what I probably use 2% of it's capabilities...) gives me the chance of changing the presets or create new ones and them naming and placing them in any orther I want, like Bank 1 slot 1 to 4 then Bank 2 slot 1 to 4. Does this pedalboard allows the same?
If you need more expensive .for basics there all good..hd 500x great set your patches tammer Les woggle warp then good make more tame playable then awsome😮
@@ramiropeserico7434 thanks. Such an iron maidenish sound.. But I believe they usually get that effect playing the same pattern on two guitars in different octave am I right?
Pumped! Just bought one for $150 here in 2024.

Me too
Thank you for sharing Daniel Craig
😂
This is the first thing I did when I got this unit.....somehow it sounded better when he did it=). Great demo, bravo!
LOL!! :) love how you go through them patches!
Thanks for the video, very helpful!
I love it when you hit the weird stuff. the crazy ambient patches just stop you in your tracks.
Thank you! Mr. Hawkeye !. : ))
Should have used an E-Bow though ;P
@@w.joseph3751 Haha, maybe next time :)
I still have mine and it still rocks!!! Thanks for this great demonstration. Liebe Grüße aus Bayern, Deutschland.
Good demo! Helix have to be next! ;-)
It could just be your playing but I'm really impressed with the tones
Un tutorial perfecto! Gracias.

Does it have a harmonist effect like the PS6?

Really good after adjusted patches bit hen😮
cool
pretty natural

5.40 the tone was awesome..!!
This is a real demo!

These are fantastic patches, I love how you subtly cover a huge variety of sound and different needs! any chance you can share them? Thanks!
These are the default patches that come factory-loaded on the HD500.
I know I'm kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good place to stream newly released tv shows online ?
@Cristiano Nathanael Flixportal =)
@Jad Brayden Thank you, signed up and it seems like a nice service =) I really appreciate it!!
@Cristiano Nathanael No problem xD
4:55.......I like how it has that Leslie speaker effect.
Clint Barton can shred
Great demo of a now aging piece of gear that can still produce good results. Could you share your patches? Thanks

On 5:00 how did he create that organ sound? Great review 👍👍👍👍

3:45 he went from one of the worst sounds to what I think is the best sound on the POD HD 500, the Big Hall.
Watching this in 2017!

Muito bom meu amigo, se possivel faça da gt 100 boss.

Does this pedalboard allows the same?
Isn't there a pedal in addition to the switches? What does it do, a wah wah?
Surprised by its OD sounds.
good review deffo a police fan !!
we need the helix video!!
Awesome man , could you share your patches ?
Does hd 400 and 500 sound similar or lot of different?
How do you setting harmonist sound...?
Hello, is it possible to record Input guitar and input mic in the same time ? Or do we need another sound card ? Thanks
It's possible.
Nice vid but man clean that fretboard
get humming on my head phones what to do ...on 1A SON OF PLEXI
Think I'll stick with my valve amp with kick ass distortion pedal threw the clean chanel
4:11 Ah, playing a tribute to Andy Summers, are we? #messageinabottle
Be honest….. how many thought he was starting a song by the police??
Well done sir
5:36 :)
WTF?! Didn't you die on The Avengers?
Play riff guitar hits slow rock🙏 ...with pod hd 500
Hey can you please tell me which is better Gt-100 or HD500? I mostly play classic rock and bluesy stuff and I like more treble sounds not digital...
Some say HD 500
Several say GT 100
If you need more expensive .for basics there all good..hd 500x great set your patches tammer Les woggle warp then good make more tame playable then awsome😮
@@rikkydavidson1762 that was 5 years ago lol, i already got gt 100 and loved it
Still using with mesa boogie mark v 25 for effects
In a amp??4 cables?? Or What?
i died when i listened to 3:50
Andy Summers' son, ¿reality or myth?
6:35 what effect it is?
Octaver with stereo delay and a little bit of chorus
@@ramiropeserico7434 thanks. Such an iron maidenish sound.. But I believe they usually get that effect playing the same pattern on two guitars in different octave am I right?
@@casualprogrammer yes
The sounds are ordinary fuzzy-artificial sounding. But Shnobel's playing is really great to demo this product.
What is The name of song 4:17
Hola, es una cancion de the police - mensaje en una botella en ingles :v jajaja
message in a bottle
some of those effects sound like shit toys from toys r us. some sound legit.
Not the best multi effects pedal then.
I really wonder whats in the head of those reviewers, that produce one shitty tone after the other. Get to use the device in a useful way!
