My demo of the Line 6 POD Go Wireless.
Before I moved house, I filmed a couple of videos to get me through the interim period. Here's one of them!

Nice looking unit this.. looks like a great all-in-one gig solution. Thanks J, great content as always.

[@bringit2ya122]

Great demo! I bought one recently, and I'm still trying to figure out how to make the snapshots work properly?

[@dnah2k]

I stick with the Stomp and pedals mostly but the PodGo is the most user/performer friendly format that Line 6 offers. Wonder if they’d do Stomp power in a PodGo format?

[@PooNinja]

I like the L6 ecosystem, it’s a nice sounding environment.

[@JacksonBrooksby]

Agreeed!

[@PooNinja]

@@JacksonBrooksby I like setting my ab switch to feed the podHd500x(a) into my monitors and my amp (B) and try to tone match them. It gets close enough for me. It makes the FOH guys job easy and no hauling a 1/2 stack around for me. 🤘🏽 Have a great 2022 Sir

[@thedeadxtras9927]

Thanks for your demo Jackson great and informative as usual, have you experienced any interference or signal dropout at all especially if you have used at different venues and not just at home? If so are you able to select and change frequency it’s transmitting on or has it just got an excellent connectivity and transmission? Cheers Stevo

[@JacksonBrooksby]

Thanks man. I haven’t experienced anything like that with the wireless stuff I’m afraid. But you’re not able to select a frequencies

[@thedeadxtras9927]

@@JacksonBrooksby cheers Jackson I think wireless systems have improved some what over the years and from the reviews I’ve seen of the PODGO wireless nobody seems to have experienced signal dropout or tone loss. I reckon I’ll probably stick with a hard wired system though as for me it’s preferred and for me more reliable if not a bit obstructing and cumbersome but tbh I still love having loads of cables everywhere, weird I know! They call me The Cable Guy!! Keep up the great reviews mate and take it easy, cheers Steve

[@MatthiasBuesing]

@@thedeadxtras9927 Nothing‘s better than the freedom of going wireless! 🤗

[@thedeadxtras9927]

@@MatthiasBuesing I’m just old hat mate and just still like using leads, it would definitely be simpler and cheaper going totally wireless in the long run.

[@petternicolas9006]

Es posible usarlo también con cable?

[@SingSurfStrum]

Hey Jackson, another great video. Thank you. I have a THR 30ii which I love. Could i run my Electric guitars through the POD go and into my Marshall AS50 Acoustic Amp? As the they are sims would I get decent quality sounds do you think?

[@JacksonBrooksby]

Hard to say for sure Iain. Are you wanting to run the amp sims into the acoustic amplifier or use the Pod for effects on acoustic?

[@SingSurfStrum]

@@JacksonBrooksby Hey Jackson, yes electric guitar through Pod go into the acoustic amp for a bigger sound than the THR

[@JacksonBrooksby]

I imagine that an electric wouldn’t sound quite right through the acoustic amp even with the Pod. I may be wrong though so it’s worth trying

[@SingSurfStrum]

@@JacksonBrooksby I’ll give it a go. My 335 sounds gorgeous clean through the amp but the reverb is poor. It would be great to plug into the THR and run it through the twin 8” of the Marshall

[@joevstheguitar]

Hi, how were you listening to the Pod while dialing up the tones? I see the USB is attached but I don't see any cables or headphones attached. Interested cause I have the regular Pod Go and I'm always looking to streamline my setup. Thanks :)

[@JacksonBrooksby]

USB to my computer and then I’m using studio speakers for monitoring

[@joevstheguitar]

@@JacksonBrooksby Thanks, I'll give this a go!

[@joevstheguitar]

Gave that a try and eventually got the USB audio to go through my default output device (focusrite scarlett 4i4) but there's a noticeable latency, did you have this issue too?)

[@RPSartre01]

Is it wireless both ends - to guitar and to the amp?

[@JacksonBrooksby]

No, just to the guitar

[@GuitarBailey]

We're you running it through an amp or ir cab

[@JacksonBrooksby]

Nope. Recorded using the inbuilt USB

[@BunkerAudioPanama]

It's TERRIBLE for gigging with the wireless. Over a meter and constant signal drops in way too many scenarios. For home practice is practical. The pedal itself is a decent piece, just don't pay extra for wireless.

[@kyledalton5009]

It’s all good until the wireless receiver breaks in a few months
