dude, thanks a loooooooot!!!!! it works with EQ for me. This change my life, really. greetings from chile

Yes! Still working on it!

[@ericmartinez4053]

Thank you for this. My favorite patch was just missing one last effect: tremolo. It's not a DSP-hungry effect, but it's a key sound for me, and I was out of blocks. With this jailbreak, I was able to add it in. Works great!

Working like a charm in 04/01/2024. But I found in the comment section that if you replace the number for an x (example: "block2" for "blockx"), this hack works even better and you can also delete the volume pedal leaving all the slots available. Awesome! Cheers from Brazil!

Would be interested to hear what you think once you get a PodGo. Moving DOWN to podGo, I wonder if you'll be a bit "underwhelmed" at the entry level capabilities, compared to a full Helix.

[@HeyWorshipLeader]

@@WarrenPostma Yeah...once you have the HELIX it's hard to go POD Go...although I do grab it pretty often because it's so light

[@patgiff101055]

@@WarrenPostma at this price point, I think my expectations are in check. I am not worried about the much more limited functionality, this thing weighs 1/3 of a Helix Floor and that is why it appeals to me. If the modeling gives me a decent sound, I will be fine :-)

[@HeyWorshipLeader]

That’s awesome man glad to help

[@WarrenPostma]

Code is close enough. That stuff is called JSON, JavaScript Object Notation, and it's not quite code, but close enough. It's a data file format, a very nice easy to alter and share one. It's awesome that you can tweak these externally. Generally JSON generated by software written in C++ like the PodGoEdit program, would write out the JSON items in no particular understandable order, that is, its not important what order things in { "this": 1, "that":, ... } form are represented in.

[@gabrielparra1031]

you got your self a new subscriber! would you do a video about changing the names of the amps and effects to the real names please!!!

[@0TheRain0]

Hmmm, I was trying to sell mine, felt like I needed just one more block to do some of the more complicated things I wanted to do. Now I'm keeping it for sure.

[@HeyWorshipLeader]

that's great

[@noahhailey5]

Something else to keep in mind is getting something like a midi controller and send messages to the midi and assign it to an effect. I’m going to be getting the bridge 6 and pod go and that’s probably what I’ll do even tho that’s not really what the midi it’s for, it’s super useful for someone who is on a budget like me

[@SeanCorpuz31]

[@ericajohnson7535]

woah!!

[@YEM_]

Hey worship leader, I wanted to let you know, I was able to free up all of the slots except for the volume pedal. So 9 empty slots! Yest it works with EQ, Amps, caps. The only thing it does not work block 1 (pedal). Anyone can copy paste this starting on line 41 and ending right before the "input" "block1" : { "@position" : 1 }, "block2" : { "@position" : 2 }, "block3" : { "@position" : 3 }, "block4" : { "@position" : 4 }, "block5" : { "@position" : 5 }, "block6" : { "@position" : 6 }, "block7" : { "@position" : 7 }, "block8" : { "@position" : 8 }, "block9" : { "@position" : 9 },

[@YEM_]

Writing back to say I don't recommend this. If you use too much DSP it'll basically crash. The only way to get it working again is to replace that preset with another one.

[@alexandrosoto4367]

I applied the same method on all blocks & managed to free up all 10 blocks

[@alexandrosoto4367]

but their are limitations w dsp

[@HeyWorshipLeader]

Good to know!

[@jeremycooper8978]

I remember reading somewhere that the PodGo can only take 2 time based / modulation blocks per preset, but I see you demonstrated a preset with 4 (chorus, delay and 2 reverb). Are you only able to have 2 of those blocks turned on at a time, or do you think that 2 block limit only applies if you only have 4 customisable blocks total?

[@HeyWorshipLeader]

I’ve never read that before. The only limitation I know about is DSP limitations. But if they are in the preset then you can use them all at the same time. If the DSP is out it won’t even let you put it in the block

[@rybol71]

Done this on my pod and even more , only amp and cab block left, assigned effects to all blocks it's working ok but try to move ,,new free blocks,, with assigned effect to different positions, it's start sounds weird

[@CarlMcCann2214]

It seems like this modification isnt applicable with the update of the moment. I did the same modifications as you in the text code to remove the wah and the fx loop but when I import it back in the podgo its showing an error and it wont import itself in. 😢

[@sargekowalkowski8572]

Just bought the Expanse Pack - it has the code set correct?

[@HeyWorshipLeader]

yes! the Jailbreak is in there and ready to go! Let me know if you need help. But email me so I don't miss if you reach out: [e-mail]

[@dashwoodaudio2976]

hi cool hack!! can you ever switch back to the factory settings without the hack?

[@JuanLopezmusica]

Does this affect the other pataches? or just the one you hack?

well watching this video saved me the extra 1300 bucks a helix costs!

[@calvinmullet3304]

Can you only do this once? I tried to edit another preset…same process, but now when I go to drag it back in, it has a little white slash.

[@antonionaranjot7]

I tried this on my windows 10 laptop Saves in notepad , word pad and word but wasn’t able to drag it back to pod go edit Do I need an specific app?

[@DennisAlvarezMusic]

I was about to ask if this affected the Pod Go globally. But I just saw where you offered a preset with it already done. So my question was answered. I think maybe this might be useful for a four cable method in a live situation. It's too bad that you can't do the same with the amp and speaker blocks, if you're not going to use them with the four cable method.

[@HeyWorshipLeader]

And it still works after the 1.4 update!

[@joethrelfall6370]

@@HeyWorshipLeader you can't add an extra two amp blocks so you can have a wet dry wet rig?

[@dinoparton6598]

Can you remove other blocks to clear up dsp instead of Wah. Which I use frequently

[@HeyWorshipLeader]

Yes! I tried again yesterday and removed everything except the amp and cab!

[@Dresdenfolife]

Would deleting the fx loop be a bad idea if you are using a Catalyst like I am? Does it only effect the present you copied the jailbreak into?

[@HeyWorshipLeader]

It only effects that one preset...so you'll be good to go

[@czarofzonk1360]

I threw the Zoom MS70-CDR in the effects loop, thereby adding 6 blocks.

[@lagransaladelrock9234]

If want to do this with the amp and cab in order to add more fx, the hack will work too?

[@accentontheoff]

@@HeyWorshipLeader Got it thanks.

[@YEM_]

There is zero risk here. You are not changing code, you are changing data (JSON)... Data for one preset. It is impossible for this to affect anything else in the system.

[@ZollipopG]

Dude this is amazing! I have been making patches per worship song and using snapshots as the V/C/B format, but I am considering using this method so that I can use one static pedalboard set up per preset and use snapshots for the songs instead, eliminating that pesky "gap" between patch changes.

[@thearoom]

How do you get rid of the eq in every patch.. Im stumped I delete it but it remains

[@HeyWorshipLeader]

I kept the EQ in my patches. I made another Jailbreak 2 that gets rid of everything except the amp and cab and it's glitchy and won't save right and the volume gets low

[@thearoom]

I want to get rid of the speaker simulator as well I took it out the same way that I did the The effects loop but no sound is coming out have any tricks for that?

[@HeyWorshipLeader]

Hmmm. not sure. I've had issues with taking out more than what's in this video. You can use the amp out. Go to global settings, select "Amp Out Source" and toggle "Pre Cab/IR" I know that doesn't free up a block but will allow you to use an external speaker

[@thearoom]

@@HeyWorshipLeader Yeah I was hoping to free up another block I already turned off the cab sim. I wish they were all blank and you just had a choice to put whatever you want I see there's EQ that's kind of stuck there I can't seem to get rid of.. anyway cool vids thanks

If it's this simple, I wonder why Line 6 don't offer it as an update. Seems like a no brainer. I know the WT guys mention their annoyance with the permanent wah, etc and Frank from Line 6 is normally pretty responsive to them.

[@HeyWorshipLeader]

Yeah, I'm not sure

[@Dannys.channel]

I think the 4 pedal limit is ONLY because there's only 4 buttons and accessing them means adding more buttons

"Since the term first appeared, jailbreaking has also been used to refer to adapting the code on other devices, from phones to games consoles."

There's a reason why as soon as you buy these at retail price the value instantly drops by $200-300. They just aren't good.
