CONTROLS & CONNECTIONS
20 Cabs and EQ OPress-and-Hold Functions� - These are the
features that are important to some-of-the-models, some-of-the-time:
2 Y 8Mid Frequency Sweep (press and hold Cabs And EQ, turn Effect Tweak): Six
of the amps that we modeled for your POD include some kind of Oselectable� or
Osweepable� mid control. Our models just wouldnOt be right if you couldnOt do the
same, so Ovoil?�� your very own Mid Sweep control! This function only applies to
the Adam & Eve, Amp 360, Rock Classic, Session, Stadium, and Sub Dub models.
So donOt be calling our lovable customer service folks when it doesnOt work on the
Flip Top model, okay? Details of the frequencies that are sweepable can be found
with the Amp Model descriptions in the Amp Models chapter.
Noise Gate (press and hold Cabs And EQ, turn Compress): Your POD
includes a built-in noise gate, intended to reduce the hiss and noise amps tend to
put out when youOre not playing, especially at high gain settings (since high gain
means that noise is turned up along with your awesome sound). To turn the Noise
Gate on, press and hold the Cabs and EQ button, then turn the Compress
knob to the right until itOs past the 1 oOclock position. To turn off the Noise Gate,
press and hold the Cabs and EQ button, then turn the Compress knob to the left
until itOs below the 11 oOclock position.

When you are using one of the pre-programmed POD sounds, the PODOs single-
digit number display will be lit, telling which bank you are in � 1 thru 9 � and one
of the channel letters � A thru D � will be lit also. If you turn one of PODOs knobs,
youOll notice the word OEDITED� will be lit to the left of the POD single-digit
display. This is a reminder to you that you have tweaked the memorized channel,
and that you should save it if you want the memory to remember the tweak. To save
your changes, press the Save button 21. The button will start to �ash. Press the
Up and Down 10 buttons and you will see that you are switching through |
