CREATING & STORING SOUNDS: EDIT MODE

advance. We provided you with a way to get those settings. Just press and keep

holding the Save button on your friend’s POD and turn any one of the POD’s

knobs (except the Output Level knob – that one’s not saved into programs).

Don’t worry, holding down the Save button won’t cause your settings to be altered

or cause Save Mode to be entered. Instead, you’ll notice one of the little arrows

below the Tuner button will light up. The arrow tells you which way to turn the

knob so that it will match the stored memory’s setting for that control. When the

knob position exactly matches the stored setting, the arrows will both light up.

(The Amp Model and Effects knobs don’t give you the left or right arrows on

their own; they will only light the two arrows together when you have the knob in

the right place.) After you’ve done this for every knob and noted the Ta p speed,

you can write down the settings on the Programmer’s sheet, take it home, enter it

in your own POD, and write the anthem for a future (or past) generation. And be

sure to thank us in the album’s liner notes. To check that you’ve got everything

just right, once the knobs are set, you can also switch to Manual Mode and see if

the sound changes. (It shouldn’t, unless the Ta p speed is different.)

If that sounds too complicated, and you have a MIDI cable handy, ﬂip ahead to

Chapter 8: “Deep Editing & MIDI Control” to ﬁnd out how to swap sounds

between two PODs with MIDI. It’s also possible to swap POD sounds on computer,

using the emagic SoundDiver software – for both Macintosh and Windows

computers – that’s included on the CD with this manual.

EDIT MODE

Alright, so let’s say you’ve got that sound you saved in one of POD’s handy

channels, and you want to add some more Bass. No problem. If you haven’t

already selected the memory you want, then go ahead and get on those Up and

Down buttons to recall the sound. Now, grab the Bass knob and crank it up. The

word “EDITED” lights up to the left of POD’s single-digit display, letting you know

that you’ve made a change to your stored channel memory, and (if you like it
