Van Halen LINE6 POD and POD 2.0 Settings

 
 

Try all these settings with your favorite Cabinet Simulation, I prefer Line6 2x12 and the Marshall 4x12 Cabinets. Also, there's info at the bottom of the page on how to adjust the Tap Tempo on the POD without a floorboard.

Additionl "Tap" Settings Distortion (Drive): Off - Delay Feedback (Bass): 4.5 - Delay Level (Mid): 7.5 - Presence (Treble): On - Drive/Boost (ChanVol): On - Tap Tempo: 390. Sound is very hot, so keep the volume low while rolling on and off... it'll distort if it gets too loud.

Here's some info on adjusting the Tap Tempo setting on the POD with out a floorboard that's required by many of the above settings.

To set the "Tap Tempo" on the POD without the floorboard, hold the tap(hold) button and turn the effect tweak knob, it will adjust the speed. The equivalencies of the numbers on the dial are as follows:

1 = 75 ms
2 = 76 ms
3 = 100 ms
4 = 225 ms
5 = 350 ms
6 = 625 ms
7 = 850 ms
8 = 1400 ms
9 = 2600 ms
10 = 3070 ms

It's not the best way to set it, but at least you can see where the cutoffs are to get dialed in on the correct tap tempo.

Thanks to: Jon from the pod_users@yahoogroups.com mailing list, found at: http://www.viagram.no/privat/podusers/

Email settings to me so I can keep this list growing. I am personally interested in just about any settings you have, but I will only post Van Halen one's on my site.

Thanks, mr5150.
