#Andertons #Line6 #Line6PodGo - Hudba
My band is bass, guitar , drums and 3 singers. Both bass and guitar use PodGo s into a digital mixer and out to PA.It's a game changer,especially when you're in your 60's and don't feel like humping amps up stairs. Love the PodGo.
You ain't kidding. I've always been a diehard tube amp analog pedal guy but my amp and pedalboard plus two guitars is too much to carry anymore for me . I just got a pod go and it is a game changer for sure. I'm in my fifties with a bad leg so I had to do something. It's a new trick for an old dog to learn but it is easy to use and it sounds good.
@@bobbychubb6913 A PodGo or HeadRush combined with a digital mixer, In Ear Monitors and eDrums gives us a totally quiet stage, crazy control of our output, almost zero chance of feedback if you're following set up rules. Set up and breakdown is also much easier and at 64 I'm not in the mood for a tough breakdown at the end of the night. Best of luck to you Bobby. Happy Easter, brother.
I've got to say I am honestly so impressed by how well andertons has managed to present these split screen videos! I'm seriously blown away! Very little loss to video quality as compared to your in person vids.
Thank you for the kind words! We are glad you have continued to enjoy our videos & hope to keep good content coming in the future. đ€
Hope they can find a way to do the same with Rob or Bea.
@@HoracioGarciaMusic Well, Bea.
Yes, very good. I think what they've done is record independently at the two locations then sync them up.
lonegroover yep, definitely much better product when recording separately. Lots of post production required, but Andertons is great at that
âThis is the first time that POD and Helix have.. you know... scissored.â
lmao
Got mine three days ago. For the money, easily the best unit Line 6 has released in years; $450 USD basically gives you a Helix LT with a couple less buttons and I/O options. This thing is literally a must-buy for guitarists who: gig in function bands; need to do pro recording in small, noise-sensitive spaces; teach lessons in a wide range of styles.
I've been so impressed with how the Line6 stuff has been sounding! massive improvements in the past few years.
I wanted a Darkglass pedal (normally ÂŁ350) and a wah pedal, but didn't know which one. Buying this was a no brainer! Four things that don't get mentioned often:
- I no longer think to myself (I wish I had this type of pedal, but can't justify the price, so I'll tell myself I don't need it (like I've never tried a looper pedal for this reason).
- You don't have to wrestle with noise coming from each pedal.
- You don't need to worry about the "limit" of number of pedals available, because you can just add pedals to another preset and switch between them.
- Rearranging pedals in the chain is now a breeze. This used to take me hours of fiddling with my other pedal board.
Someone's been putting the time in during lockdown!! Great playing Cap.
Great job on the video Andertons that worked really well. Line 6 you guys are smashing it with this new unit I will be having one of them when payday comes round they sound brilliant.
You guys do GREAT editing!! Thank you for producing such great content!!! AWESOME!!!!! :-)
Lee, amazing playing! Loved the blues playing on the first preset. Couldn't believe it!
Iâm not even halfway through but this is a great video so far. Iâve watched a lot about the pod go, but this one is at the right pace.
Paul Hindmarsh . Amazing musician and human
Couldn't of put it better ourselves! We were lucky to have him as part of this video đ€
Incredible musician
Cheers just pulled the pin and ordered 1 from your website great demo just what I needed đđž
Hi! Do you still own it and do you like it?
Great Info, Awesome Jammin, You Guys Rocked This One đđđ¶đ¶đžKeep Bringin Those Videos.
Great to see Paul again....Line 6 are going to take over the world....amazing sounds, and ease of use, hundreds of amps, pedals....hard to beat it in a mix...don't hesitate...get something from the Helix family :)
Always love Paul's playing, so much feeling! Funky bluesy, fantastic.
It's always a pleasure to have him down! đ€
Thanks for reviewing this. Very interested in buying. You guys are the best
Iâve been watching videos to help me choose my first effects unit âŠ. This is one of the best Iâve seen
With the ongoing firmware updates Line6 products just keep getting better and better. How nice is it to buy this and a year later get new amps and effects in the unit you already bought. Awesome.
Amazing video, love watching these videos whilst I work. And a 'Sound like Stereophonics' please!!!
Been waiting for a proper Anderton's look at the Pod Go. This made my day!
Thx for the great video! Looking forward to the bass demo of this unit
One of the best things about these videos is seeing how much Lee's improvising has come since the early days. His feel for what he's playing has gotten so much better! Nicely done sir.
Great little blues noodle at 6:23 - nice work Capt!
Been waiting for this one. Got one on order
You are gonna have a great time when it arrives! đ
It's way past time we "are amazed" at Lee's latest play. The guy is a player. Now we can hammer on him for his choice of music or something. Let it rip Lee!
No, no, no. NOW we rip on the Captain for his poor fingerstyle technique on bass. Come over to the Dark Side, Lee. It won't hurt a bit. Promise. Baaaaahahahahahaha.
Just ordered from your site and canât wait to get it :)
I just ordered a pod go today I had to order one from another music store because I live in the US. I do love watching the Andersonâs videos I wish I had something like this when I was younger. I donât have a music shop to go to and the closest one to me is a 4 hour drive. Sorry for the long comment but just wanted to show my appreciation to you guys Andersonâs hope youâre doing well with all this craziness going on.
Good job Lee - and some tasty playing too.
Thank you for this demo!
I just ordered one :-)
Great to see Paul again and hear him play!
Thanks! Taking a hard look at this hardware
It's worth the look... Glad you enjoyed the video! đ€
I have POD 2.0 still sounds fine sometimes
Enjoyed this. Very helpful review! Cheers. [ PS Your bass playing is fine! ]
I was looking at a HX stomp to complete my bedroom board but after watching this, and evaluating where I am as a guitarist, this is a much better option. It also replaces Ă PodXT live from a decade or so ago.
I'm really interested in this because the HX Stomp is still a bit expensive for me. This is a good alternative.
If youâre hesitating to but this, buy it, you wonât regret it. I bought to use as a pedalboard and keep the amp presets off and it is insane. The only downside is that you can only choose four different pedals of your choice at once, but it isnât that big of a deal. Iâd recommend 10/10
BASS BASS BASS BASS BASS BASS BASS BASS BASS BASS đđđ Great demo, and Lee, your bass playing is pretty solid (it keeps getting better each time!).
The Andertons Morning Show! Another awesome drive to work! Morning gents and thanks for the awesome video. That POD looks nice, but I'm still make in love with my BOSS ME-80
Glad to bring you your morning dose of Andertons TV! đ€
After much research I bought a Samson RSXM10a 10" wedge monitor for my PodGo and I'm glad I did! It's got a COAX speaker with a bitch cabinet and that's the way to go IMHO. The coax tweeter being in the center of the speaker, combined with wood cabinet makes the PodGo sound amazing! Plus, it's relatively priced.đ
Line 6 certainly has come a long way havenât they!
29:30 đđ Love Chris, such a legend
There is always love for Chris đ€
Thanks guys!. Time to save up for one!
Best purchase I have made in years.
paul is a class act, really cool dude
The video was perfect. Even if it was some single playing, it was nicely done!!!! Way to go Andertons!!!
Ordered mine a month ago. Should be getting it this Friday along with the headrush frfr 108. I am excited
Sounds like a killer new gear day! Thanks for tuning in đ€
Love the Ăbershall preset. You got one sold ! đ
Always needed that extra block... đ Maddening
PodGo is impressive. What a wonderful tool
Looks like Lee uses the longest cable, which he found in Andertons shop đ
Good player to represent the unit good stuff. Pitty no one on CZcams doing the same for the rest of the gear
This is a little long but if you're on the fence about modeling this could be a worthwhile read.
I bought one of these for late night practicing through headphones and the occasional fly gig/jam. It sounds so good to me that it has become my main rig, but thereâs an important catch- I bypass the cab sims and put it straight into the fx loop return of my Bad Cat Cub 15R because, letâs face it, FRFR systems cannot recreate the âamp in a roomâ sound.
Although Iâm not about to part with my Eventide H9, the effects on board are good to excellent. Iâm still pretty floored by how uniformly great this setup sounds. Just so you donât think Iâm some easily impressed noob, Iâve been playing since the early 80âs and own or have owned great amps by the likes of Mesa (at least 6), Carr, Friedman, Budda, Fender CS, Orange, Rivera, Revv, and so-on. Iâve had my favorites from these brands and I can really say that the Pod Go into my Bad Catâs fx loop return puts as big a smile on my face as any of the above amps.
Maybe I just got lucky and the Bad Cat just happens to âlikeâ the Pod Go and itâs a great combination just by chance? Eventually Iâll pull out other amps to find out. I also think itâs important to mention that in my experience it doesnât sound good into the front of an amp which makes sense given that youâre putting a modeled preamp into a real preamp in this scenario.
Modeling has really come of age IMHO. If youâre tired of lugging a big rig around and youâre intrigued by modeling but donât like the FRFR experience you should consider this kind of setup. You may be very surprised. Oh yeah, the day after I bought this I got an email from Fractal as I'd been on their waiting list for the past 6 months for a FM3. With all the confidence that I was making the right choice and zero regret to date, I told them I was going to pass. YMMV
Agreed with everything here, except that there's something nice about a modern digital FRFR stereo rig. It's not your grandpa's fender clean tones, but it's great also.
I have now put my pod go into a blackstar HT5 home practice amp and it sounds great, plugged it into a big 2x12 powered cab, and it sounds great, and put it into a Fender Twin 100w tube amp and it sounds great.
I have tried a pair of headrush FRFR powered speakers with the Helix LT at a store, and was blown away with that too, but haven't dropped the coin on FRFRs. The thing is that one FRFR is not enough. Whatever it is we've lost from the guitar cabs, comes back in a big way when you have a panned stereo image and a pair of speakers sending sound into your room.
The feeling of sound washing over you can come from a big cab, or it can come from a pair of PA speakers or FRs. Yes. It can. Not if you don't have a pair of good wedges pointing at you and only have whatever is on the PA poles. But speakers are speakers, believe it or not. Listening Position is a lot to do with a guitarists experience of sound.
I want to ask have you tried the Line 6's Powercab by any chance?
If you have, how did you or how do you like it?
If you haven't, it basically emulates the frequency responses of different speakers without the microphone coloring in the equation. So it models real guitar cabinet without the mic.
But you can also use it as an floor FRFR monitor if you'd like.
So I'm really curious to hear your input on it.
Thank you.
@@WarrenPostma What the heck is FRFR?
@@spacep0d Full Range Flat Response powered speaker cabinet, meant for use with modellers like Kemper, Helix, Headrush, NeuralDSP, and such.
It's frankly, a marketing term, meant to make it normal for guitarists to plug into a PA system directly. Since it's basically a PA speaker.
It's a powered monitor (speaker).
@@WarrenPostma Thank you!
Uff that solo in the end was great
I've got an HX Stomp, which I've used live to great success. But I like an all-in-one solution, so I ordered a Pod Go--should be here tomorrow.
Hi! So how did you like the Go in comparison to the stomp? Cheers
@@esticaandres3169 Haven't used it live because of Covid restrictions, but I find it much easier to use so far. And the sounds are the same.
I just got this, and I freaking love it.
Curious , I can't tell if it has two stereo out for two amps? Although it looks like it has it.
Lucky !
I am not a heavy-rock sounds guy, and I used a PodXTlive for years, until it started cracking up. Now I really want a PODgo. I'm currently using a large traditional pedal-board but I miss the simple instant presets from I had with the Pod.
I need this in my life.
When do you think you'll be able to get back into the same room, if necessary with a whacking great perspex screen between the presenters?
Great demo, guys! I had no idea this supported a bass guitar too. Is there a good way to share this with a bass and electric guitar without changing the instrument cable? Maybe it's a stupid question but I'm curious. Thanks!
Captin you sound great đžđđ
Great video as always.
QUESTION: Is the Pod Go good for recording directly into a DAW? I am
looking for something that sound's really great with many amp sounds for
recording. I would trust your input (no pun intended!).....Thanks.

Thank for doing a very detailed dive into this Line6podgo! I will be receiving mine later today. Can't wait to hear it. $449 in the States.
Glad you enjoyed the video... You are gonna have a great time once your POD Go arrives! đ€
22:08 that's a wall of sound if I ever heard one
I got to hand it to them the user interface is the simplest and most straight forward to understand they have ever created.
I agree, it pretty good for line 6. But I suggest you take a look at the Headrush pedal board and gig board, they have 7 inch touch screen and it's super easy to work with and totally easy to use without the manual, infact I've never used the manual but I suppose there's something in the book that will help me one day but this thing is so ready and easy to use.
Hmmmm..... Fender, Vox and Plexi are the first 3 presets. It's as if somebody at Yamaha/Line 6 has been listening to what old school players like me find useful! Very similar to what compelled me to buy the Yamaha THR 10C. And, the ease of use on this POD Go appears top notch... very much geared toward folks like me who prefer to tweak EQ, etc. globally with knobs, spending little time tweaking parameters to death, and get down to playing. Looks brilliant, and tempting!
Wouldâve been cool if the POD Go could communicate electronically with the HX Stomp, so that a Go preset/snapshot would change modules and settings on the HX.
Next time in England I will visit Andertons. Can't promise to by very much, maybe some plektrums. But would love to visit. So let's see.
I have been very happy with my Headrush pedal board and the sounds it makes plus the tools onboard the kit but I'm curious now how the pod go stands up to the biggest Headrush pedal board, any people out there compare care to elaborate on the pros and cons !??!
I just got a yamaha thr30ii, i just want the effects, would this be adequate to use with the practice amp ? I only really want to get nice swells, so auto volume, complex reverb, delay
My Helix rack and floor control, Variax guitar and HX stomp give me way more flexibility than I really need.
I am thinking of selling the rack and just keep the HX stomp.
After going through the Pod era as well as Digitech, Eleven rack, ADA, TC Electronic, I decided on just the Line 6 route.
Line 6 (Yamaha) make some cool gear and so easy to program your custom setup.
1 year later, what is your favorite line 6 product?
Yamaha really needs to make some production Pacifica models like that one!
I am going to paint my pacifica grey and make a brass pickguard.
I agree, I want to see high end japanese made pacificas. Killer guitars. Yamaha should compete with Ibanez AZ series, which are fantastic. But Pacificas have a solid pedigree
That Pacifica is gorgeous
14:30 can confirm, I am in fact a heavy guy
Thanks. Richard
Lee plays the kind of music I like to play and so hard to find on youtube. Usually it's a lot of high gain stuff with loud backing music and you can't hear if the thing is fizzy or not.
New players have got it made nowadays, and I love that. These products are spectacular, inexpensive, but definitely not cheap. I have a Helix, so wouldn't pick one of these up, but when it comes time to buy the grandkids some pedals, you'd better believe I'll be looking at this type of thing.
Sounds great, definitely thinking about getting one. But I wonder, doesnt this kind of replace the helix stomp?
It can, but if you have other pedals you like a lot (like a Big Sky), the stomp is a great size for a pedal board.
So what do you say about the THR30 with POD GO as your home equipment? Can they work together? and how?
I love the hxfx. Would this be a good replacement? Don't like amp and can modelling, I've got my favorite amp and cab.
I'd like to know if you use the Amp output with the cab block turned off sent to a power amp and cabinet setup, does the effects such as delay, reverb, EQ after the cab block still get sent through the Amp output to hear. Basically does the full signal minus the cab block get sent? I keep hearing everyone say that the path gets cut off after the cab block, but never says if the effects after are still getting sent. Basically I want to send full signal to front of house and also send to amp setup on stage to monitor without cab block in signal. Not being able to hear all my effects on stage setup would be a deal breaker for me getting this. Thanks for any info.
I have a question about the various helix/pod stomp boxes and stuff now available from Line 6.
I have the Pod X3 live. I use it for recording on my computer and used to use it live and although I haven't played live for some time I'd like something that is good for playing live in the same way the X3 is as well as for recording into my DAW
So I'm thinking of upgrading but one very important prerequisite I have is that it has to have AT LEAST as good a set of bass amps and models as the X3 if not better. It seems like a lot, or even all of the newer stuff is either just for guitar or just for bass.
Surely there has to be something on offer that can be for both?
There's no way I'd buy two separate ones for recording on my computer so am I better off sticking with what I've got?
I want better sounds.
Helix .50. I have a POD Go and its a huge improvement over the HD. There are many pro quality IRs and Patches available. I prefer to pay $10 and get a pro quality patch and spend my time playing so this unit suits me well.
Correct regarding stomp mode
Hey, what guitar model is Paul using,? Thought it was a Pacifica but can't see anything else like it on line... keep up the good work, ... popping in soon.
Hi Captain, I'm an Englishman living in Melbourne, Australia. Love your show very much, I say, "Your the Top Gear equivalent of the music world!" Anyway, I know your not so much into acoustic guitars, but you have a 'High Roller' room in at Andertons' Music Store. You know, where Gibson, Martin & Taylor reside. It seems such a shame that you don't stock a guitar brand in there that many around the world consider to be better than those! I'm talking about Maton of course. Made in Box Hill (a Melbourne suburb). Any half decent musician here will probably more than not, be playing one, because they are held in such high regard. Of course Tommy E. plays one too! My request therefore, is that you please make some attempt to stock these guitars and show that England's colony down south has the goods to cut it anywhere in the world. Also, an episode (blindfold) where you get some of the top rank acoustic guitars are measured, with Maton being present! PLEASE! lol.
Also, these guitars are constructed mainly from Aussie native woods, something quite unique!
p.s. An Aussie mate of mine was in London late 2019, he made a special day trip to Guildford to see your store. He bought me an Andertons T-shirt. Great stuff. I wear it down here for you!!!!
Guitar village in Farnham stocks Matons and that's not far (Well bout 15 miles) from Andertons I bought my Tommy Emmanuel sig there ....and Yeah it's an amazing guitar..and Tommy is a legend, seen him play and met him quite a few times đâ
Your amp shootout has been the best shootout on CZcams. Many new amps have been released...can we get other amp shootout... love from Indiađźđł
Glad you have been enjoying our videos... Thanks for tuning in! đ€
Will it get updates of new amps and effects like the Helix/Stomps?
Yaaaaaas, paul!!!!!!!!!
20:50 that was trippy
Can I use one of these with a Line6 Spider V 120? It doesnt have an effects loop, so would I have to go the cab/usb interface route?
HOLYYYY SHIT that guy really knows how to play amazing
how does this effect compare to the pod hd500x ? because i can't seem to find the pod go where i live and should i go with the hd500x or wait for this to be available ?
Would Helix custom tones work on a POD GO. If it was a helix tone that was just a linear line, with less than 9 things in the chain and they were all on the POD GO. Would the POD GO be able to load the tone?
Paul has good taste in interior design
would be nice if you updated the Spider V mk2 amps with these IR's and effects sounds. I like my Spider V mk2 240watt amp but I hate that for the money I spent and it has no effects loop but yet it has XLR out ??? So It would be safe to say if I bought a POD Go, it would not sound as good as id have to run it into the Amp Jack as it would thru an effects loop.
What kind of audio cable works for the Aux? I was thinking about a single male to male 1/4 ts to 1/8 trs. But there also one that goes with two mono 1/4 ts.
I'm wondering if the first four patches are still based on the four topologies of the DT amps...
And, btw, owning a DT50 head, I don't get why those amps have not got the success they (imo) deserved and why Line6 hasn't carried on with their development!!!
so can you effectively assign the four ABCD buttons to turn on and off effects like a classic pedal ? Is that effectively what stomp mode is ? ( seems like a noob question but I'm potentially looking to swap out my large massive pedal board for something compact like this for doing small bar gigs)
Yes. You can switch 4 to 6 different effects on/off in the stomp mode with ABCD (as well as up and down buttons can become effect buttons).
That way you can have 6 stompboxes, + 1 tap tempo/tuner + 1 mode switch button.
I switched from a pedaltrain 3 setup. Said goodbye to my noise suppressor, power supply, tuner, and copious amounts of cable all over. The best part is the board itself is gone.
Pod go weights a little less than a laptop and has a handle on it.
I need that reverse stock Yamaha in my life.
what model is it?
@@ctothegiles my thoughts exactly? First thing I noticed before I looked at the POD. Is this a custom Paul? Certainly looks pretty mint.
@@lilsponge777 Yes, it is a custom made one for him. Generally speaking, us normal people can't get custom Pacificas
That man can play!
