@DracoEdmar I don’t think it’s possible.
HEY MAN PRETTY GOOD VIDEO REALLY HELPFUL…HOPE U CAN HELP ME…I´M USING THE HD 500 AS MIDI CONTROLLER FOR THE ROLAND GR55(CHANGING PATCHES)…I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE´S SOME SETTING WHICH ALLOWS ME TO GET SPECIFIC PATCHES AT THE GR55 AND NOT ONLY CONSECUTIVE PATCHES FOR EXAMPLE DIFFERENT LISTS IN THE POD…LET ME EXPLAIN IT BETTER..SUPPOSE I´M ON LIST 1 ON THE POD AND PATCH A1 ON THE GR55, AS I GO THROUGH THE PATCHES ON POD, PATCHES ON GR55 CHANGE RIGHT?? IF MY LAST PATCH ON POD WAS
Hey Glenn!
Lately I’ve been really interested in the HD500. It sounds really good and I’m pretty excited about it. I wanted to ask your oppinion on these questions.
Is the HD500 better for metal than the Boss GT-10. I own one right now and I just can’t get a really good metal tone out of it. Second, are you running your HD500 through an amp or monitors?
Keep rockin’ Glenn, you are really good!
Happy 2012!
Just had one of these ordered for me and seeing all this info on the POD HD500 is getting me really excited!
@extremevideopro
understood.
Thank you for availability.
I’ll try to find a way to activate the pedal in a more ‘fast as possible, without changing the tone.
@PioTiziano I don’t think there is any way around that. That’s just how the wah sounds when it is activated.
@extremevideopro
sorry I have not solved the problem …
I try to explain better …
I use a slash’s tone, and for example when I use the neck pickup, I have the classic sound of slash, okay?
when I active the wah, the sound changes!
@PioTiziano go to 4:03 of the video
hello
I bought a pod 500 2 days ago …
That is the problem if I use the wah, I alter the tone …
Becomes too distorted …
how do I fix it?
apologize if you have explained I do not understand English well
@extremevideopro Thanks for the tip I will do that. is there any chance of a wee video about reverbs and delays specifically? (by the way I apologise for the use of wee. I’m scottish haha)
@AlofD The best tip I can give you is make sure both inputs are not set to guitar. It cause unwanted clipping. Do this in the system settings. Set one to guitar and one to mic.
Hey glen, Been researching this pedal for a few weeks now and decided to buy one today. I’m just wondering when your next videos are going to be uploaded with tips and tricks. I’m particularly interested in ambient sounds and spacial effects. I’m play mostly metal but I have the metal tone down.
Hi Glenn,
Excellent video and Great playing! Thank you for posting! Was wondering if you could share the song in the background that starts around the 1:23 mark and the patch you used to create it!
@megavegetarocks Yes I would definitely run it in 4 cable method. You would want to use the amps distortion since it is so good.
Hi glenn, I want to connect the pod hd500 to my mesa boogie triple rectifier and get a brutal sound, using the of 4 cables method will obtain a sound like yours? or what would be appropriate?? or i need to connect to my mac?? I ask, because in the shop did not sound like your perfect sound and here (in mexico city shops) no one can give you a good answer. thanks and I love fusion III wow great job
@extremevideopro wow that’s kool the blues sound awesome!!!!
@ROCKERSLASH1 Thank you. It doesn’t have a name. That’s just me noodling around.
awesome video hey whats the name of the intro song??
I bought one today!! Glad you’re showing this one!!
Thanks!
i love this vid, especially about the wah, i hate how it always completely changed my tone but that should fix it! do you have any tips about some soundgates and the best way to set one up with the HD?
Could you tell me guys: how does the HD 500 sounds on a drive channel of the amp? I mean with some delay, chorus or wah…
hey can you do a video of how to get a good metallica tone with the hd 500
@Paulskirocks Oh yeah, i forgot about that. If you have this unit on carpet sometimes it’s hard to activate that toe switch isn’t it. Glad it’s working like it should.
@hsosa1967 Hey, I’ve been banging my head trying to figure out why I was having the same problem, and it turns out that I was not giving enough pressure on the toe ind of the expression peddle… It takes a fair amount of weight to trip the switch… Hope this helps!
Glenn, thanks for this post!
