• When set to “Preset,” all the parameter settings shown on the Variax Setup
screens (Setup pages 7 & 8) are saved and recalled individually per POD HD
Pro X preset. You’ll see additional options in the screen when you have a Variax
connected and choose “Preset.”
• When set to “Global,” this provides complete manual control over all Variax
functions, regardless what Variax settings you may have saved within the POD
HD Pro X presets.
*Note: For a James Tyler Variax (JTV) this will also determine whether the guitar’s Mag/
Model switch selection (as heard through the “Variax” Input Source option) will be
recalled per Preset or Globally.
Also note that the Setup Pg 8 - JTV Tuning Options are not aected by this Variax
Control setting - the Tuning settings are saved per Preset.
James Tyler® Variax®
All James Tyler Variax Electric Guitars are supported. (Also see “Page 8, James Tyler
Variax Tuning Options” on page 2•16 for more options!)
• Variax Control (Knob 1): See page 2•11.
• Model (Knob 2): Selects the Variax Model & pickup position setting. Choose the
“Don’t Force” option if you prefer to not have the JTV local Model changed by the
Model value saved within the POD HD Pro X presets.
• Local Control (Knob 3): Determines whether the JTV Volume and Tone knobs,
and/or toggle switch are to remain active or be “locked.” When locked, the knob/
switch no longer controls the JTV guitar’s local functions for the Modeled output
of the guitar.*
