Hi! So if it’s a latch pedal, will it not work? Also what will be the difference because when you did the demo, it seems that when you pressed it, it stayed on even without you pressing the button. Your reply is highly appreciated! 🙂

Can't we save a Delay level in a Preset, then add looper after calling up that Preset? Still waiting on mine can't test it yet. I'll probably get a volume and switch pedal so thanks for the external pedal demonstration. Not just for beginners, I'm a long time player living in a tiny seniors suite and this is perfect for my use case of playing quietly and some recording. I have BiasFX2&/DAW and also a tiny Quilter Superblock UK (awesome Marshall gain tones), but I want some tangible pedal fx again without owning a ton of expensive pedals. This is easy, compact and fun and so cheap and still quality enough with HX lineage. And can turn off amp and cab to just use fx/looper, so handy.

Psyched to be hearing some more of this thing up front. Have mine on pre-order, after having had (and returned) the Boss IR-2. The Boss just didn‘t sound uncolored enough with my Fender Jazzmaster MiJ (Traditional Late 60s) tuned down to C# standard (my standard tuning). Sounded squashed and unreal, with an upper-mid honk - not at all like my guitar. Also colored my sound when in bypass (which I guess makes sense because it‘s only buffered bypass). Removing it from the chain entirely gave me back my authentic tone. Have high hopes the POD Express might do better, and also let me slap this on my pedalboard as an all-in-one solution for my Jazzmaster, leaving the rest of my pedalboard for acoustic guitar. That would be killer! :-) P.S. After watching the whole video: Yes!!! This looks like a real winner for my solo acoustic/electric shows! Can‘t wait to test it. And for Line6 to come out with a kind of similar box for acoustic(!).

I thought a Jazzmaster sounded pretty good with the Fender sims in some IR-2 reviews but then I don't own a JM so I have preconceptions. I back ordered then cancelled my Boss IR-2 as the wait was just too long for what it is. Then this POD Express popped up on reviews and it suits my use case better. Still waiting for mine, but not as long as for the Boss. Not a fan of some of the gain heavy default amp presets I've heard, so I'll be making my own (room for 21 user presets).
@scottbecker34855 ай бұрын
@@jimmyjames2022 Yeah, just about everybody got any guitar (including Jazzmasters) to sound great on the IR-2, but that doesn‘t mean the unit doesn‘t suck tone. Many may say it doesn‘t matter, but it doesn’t to me, especially since the IR-2 would sit in the same chain as my acoustic guitar (switched off, and still messing with my sound). Glad you are also going to give the Go Express a spin. Curious to compare notes with you when you get it. And I, too, will be making my own presets - primarily using clean and slightly crunchy settings with and without modulations and delays, punching those on or off using an external dual footswitch.

You can get a podhd500x for under $200 on reverb. More amps, more effects, more presets, vocal processor, etc. it’s literally the predecessor to the helix, and sounds just as good for most basic sounds. I get the portability, but I’m not a fan.
@GetOffset4 ай бұрын
I hear you have you be careful about checking the footswitches on those when buying them used. But, generally, I think those two products have very different audiences. POD Express is for folks who basically just want a few options with a blend knob, as well as something they can take on the go.

If you use presets, I don't think seeing or fiddling is really going to be a problem. And the plastic feels robust enough tbh. I'd rather it not be plastic, but it doesn't feel particularly fragile.
