We get a hands on look at the PodGo from Line 6. We'll take you through everything from un-boxing to first power up, registering your device for warranty & free updates, to updating firmware, trying a factory preset and creating our own preset.
A commonly asked question, does the PodGo compare to Helix as far as tonality? I can honestly say it DOES. Although a different animal from Helix (no Variax input and lack of multiple sends & returns) it still fulfills a need at an awesome price-point.
An incredible offering from Line 6 for not only those discovering the brand for the 1st time, but to those that have, own and use multiple products within the line.
Well thought out, the expected easy & inviting user interface, build quality, yet most important TONE!

You're the only one who took the time to explained it in a very clear and detailed manner. Thank You so much, you got yourself a subscriber.
This video was incredibly helpful!! I followed along with building the preset, and it was a great test to make sure that I have my new Pod Go set up correctly. I also loved the extra tips on how to set delay and pitch effects, as well as eliminating the background fuzz and shutting off the blinking tuner light. Thank you!!
Really glad you found this video helpful. Thank you so much for the kind words and enjoy your new PodGo. We have a really great preset bundle available for it as well to get you started. line6helixpresets.com/product/the-podgo-starter-kit/
Just received my Pod Go and since I’m a “Old Schooler” from the early 70’s with a Marshall half stack, Strat and a wah plugged in and turned up, this is all really new to me. I’ve watched this video and wanted to say THANK YOU…! This is by far the absolute best instructional video I’ve seen on anything…!! It’s really helped me get the basics down. I wanted to see if you have some additional videos on the SNAPSHOT part, the guides 8 octopuses and 8 tentacles each equal 64, is fine, except I’m still trying to figure this out. Also I want to learn about the IR’s as well. I keep looking.. Again great video and many many Thanks from this Old Rocker Dude…✌️
Mike. I'm in same boat. Eric does a top job here. ty
Yes, he is excellent..His videos are the absolute best in my opinion…!
This is an excellent "get started" video for those just getting the PodGo.
Many thanks buddy!
Kind wish the Pod Go Edit software was more like Pod Farm. Pod Go Edit is kinda boring looking, and I like seeing a representation of the amp or pedal on the screen that I can interact with
I just pulled the trigger last week for a PodGo and your video is a life saver for sure. I didn’t see anything on Line 6’s website on how to even register the product or what to do. This video rocked. Thank you!
I bought a new pod go and this is the only video which helped me set up from the beginning.Really appreciate your work! Keep up the good work!
I cannot thank you enough for the very kind words! Please enjoy your new purchase!
I just ordered my Pod Go last night and am way excited to have it delivered. Dude, thanks for the in depth walkthrough and creating great hard rock tones. I just subbed and will definitely be looking forward to more videos soon
You are very welcome! Congrats on your purchase and thank you for the sub. You may want to look at this preset bundle I have available too! line6helixpresets.com/product/the-podgo-starter-kit/
Eric! thanks SO much for this... I decided to buy two of these units, for the melody/bass sides of the Chapman Stick... I had the Helix, however I wanted to down size my rig. Im going into two Headrush powered monitors. thanks so much this was a great video...!
Nice and simple overview Erick. Looking forward to seeing what you can do with it and ho you will try and minimize some of the limitations it has compared to the full Helix floor or LT. I wish this had come out a few years ago so I didnt have to deal with the Firehawk FX with no updates or support. Ive since upgraded to the LT but for hobbyists and non-pros on a budget the PodGo looks like a great unit to get your feet wet in the Helix ecosystem
just curious...Am I the only one who hates unboxing videos? So boring! I always skip to what's IN the box
Yep you are the only one.
I would just set it to Michael Schenker’s part wah sound and it’s off to the races I go.
Fantastic video, thank you. Mine's still in the box and it looks like I found the right video to watch before unboxing. Thanks!
very detailed.. thank you
video is one years old ! but I’ll try it
Wow! Thanks. Such a great video. Makes me feel good about my recent POD GO order. Loved your presets and seeing how you dialed them in. Will definitely use this video when I receive my unit.
Thank you kindly! I am also adding a 10 preset bundle to Marketplace this week as well that will help many people get up and running right out of the gate.
Sounds fantastic! I have owned every pod since the original bean. I ordered mine in January. Has not shipped as of yet. Love my HX Stomp, but but can’t wait for my Pod Go!👍🏻🎸
Can't wait for you to get it. Let me know when you do!
@@musicgearnetwork wait so which of the software ls do I need to install first
Thank you for wonderful video , I have few questions 1. Can I use my existing reverb /delay pedals with Pod Go in stereo ? 2. Also if I use an existing pedal, will that occupy one of the block chains in the Pod Go out of 4 user slots ?
Hi sorry if I missed it but how are you playing back the sound from the Pod Go. Right now, I am using a Focusrite Scarlett, out of which I run two studio speakers. Do I need to manually connect the studio speakers to the Pod Go or can I add the Pod Go to my DAW and then let the DAW manage it. Thanks in advance.
I am running 1/4" stereo out direct to my mixer.
@@musicgearnetwork Ah ok, thanks.
Excellent helpful introduction to the Pod Go. Very well presented. Thank you. Earned a sub from me.
I am very glad this helped you and I appreciate the sub greatly!
Great video Eric, I've had my Pod Go for about 2 weeks and I have referenced this video several times.
I look forward to checking out your presets on the Line 6 market place.
🤘🤓🎸
Thank you buddy!
Can I use the program/software on windows?
Yes indeed you can!
looking for a good acoustic guitar patch for the POD Go.
Me too
Hello. I'm having trouble accessing the pod go edit on my iPad. The files are downloaded on the cloud and I'm not sure how to finalize setup. It did not give me an oprion to save files to ipad. Any help would be appreciated.
That was a very nice walkthrough. It's pretty exciting to see just how simple editing is. Being able to turn off amp/cab blocks also makes this a really solid MFX unit to use with an actual tube amp.
Thank you I am really glad you found the video helpful.
@@musicgearnetwork Yes, indeed. I'm currently running a vintage POD 2.0 / Floor Board into the EFX return of a DSL1C in low power mode. It actually sounds pretty good to overcome the 1C's rather lacking tone and have some grit when you get the output volume on the POD just right. It makes for a pleasing platform at volumes that my wife can tolerate. I'm strongly considering the POD GO as an upgrade for the same configuration, improved DAW options and even a direct FOH gig rig.
On the Pod Go you cannot go to parallel effects can you?
That is correct. Just linear, left to right
Oh man I'm so excited for this show. I can't express it with words!
Excellent video
What is the best thing to plug the podgo into ? Amp, cabinet or computer ??? Thank you
It depends what you are looking to do. I do a couple things. Most of my time is spent playing my PodGo through my reference monitors. But when I want to get crazy and really loud I run into my Line 6 Powercabs. But even just good studio speakers will sound like a million bucks!
@@musicgearnetwork right now and I'm playing thru a katana artist. I just love the monster sound in your video, especially when you made your own patch. I want that sound to start. I should just be able to plug into from of katana with all the effects off shouldn't I ?
Hello, you know what you are doing. Respect. Greetings from Germany
That little transparent setting in the preferences fixed something that i was struggling with in my Helix. Awesome information. Thanks for all you do to help the community.
You are very welcome and thank you as well for watching and your support!
@@musicgearnetwork I love your content. I have purchased your Pasadena preset and try to support as much as I can. I have noticed occasionally a viewer does a super chat and donates. How does that process work in YT? Thanks!
@@MileHighFan2Seven I greatly appreciate your feedback and support. I hope you dig the Pasadena presets! I am going to build them for PodGo as well. Super Chat revenue is shared with RUclips and the creator. RUclips takes a fairly high percentage of it, and we don't see the payment until the following month. Often times I share my paypal link instead, as it gets to the creator immediately. Thanks again and please be safe!
@@musicgearnetwork PayPal it is. Again I really appreciate the time and effort you put into sharing with the community. Thanks!
Couple quick questions. Unit being delivered on SAT, but on my head start from previous post, a couple questions PLS. 1) do you also have to download the Driver? I did install the updater c1.28 and the Edit 2.0. 2) is the Updater utility you discuss around the 10:30 mark, the same as the Updater? Thanks! I'm also gonna plug the board into an amp along with my Desktop.
Bought one of these this past weekend, not delivered yet. But trying to get a head start! so a couple questions ----1) I assume I can download all I need now before I get the unit. 2) when ready to load all to the unit, and also work on my first pre-set like you did, I also assume that I connect the unit to my computer, and then also plug my GTR into it as well, so I can HEAR what I'm editing and adjusting on the sound side. 3) also guessing I''ll have to hear it by hooking up a pair of my headphones. Thanks.....Good Video, and especially that you did not RUSH through the install portion!
I just got my new one 5 days ago and have only registered it and simple play through of the factory presets..this video has got me ready to hook up to my home computer and get busy !!
this is great !! I just subscribed and will be looking for your videos on this and many other amazing products !! Thank you !!
You are very welcome! Congrats on your purchase!
This is great!!! thank you so much
Very welcome!
Good information…..I have a question that seems to be hard for sales reps from major music stores to answer. Can I use the PodGo with an Vox AC15CI amp without losing any clarity or capabilities of the PodGo. I get told I believe it will work or it should work. Nothing really a 100% answer. Any help would be appreciated.
I'm going to say what I did after error messages. My computer said I didn't have the app. So after you go to the download page and select "pod go" "all software" and your system. Hit go. It loads another page of many different download options. Scroll to the very bottom, then up one. To line 6 edit version 1.10. Hit get download. Then accept terms. The app should appear on your computer. Double click...it says error the code execution cannot proceed. So you need to download- "microsoft visual c++ 2010 redistributable package (x86)" type that exact quote in google search. The 1st thing that comes up should be it. Click on it. Language select. Download and install. Then click back on your pod go edit app and it should open....that's what I did anyway.
Yes! This is exactly how "Get Started" videos should be done. Great job, well done! Subscribed! Thank you so much!!
Huge thank you. I am thrilled that this video helped you and thank you for subscribing.
The POD GO had my attention. Thanks to your video it has my interest!
Awesome to hear!
Thank you for this tutorial. While watching I couldn't help laughing thinking, this guy is Bob Ross, the electronic version. Lol, In Bob Ross Voice "we're just going to bring in a little bit of mids, and maybe just a splash of reverb"
I’ve been enjoying your PodGo Starter Kit and am mesmerized by the “CLN Swell Delay” setting... glorious! Perfect for Sound of Silence, Alice Cooper’s Alma Mater, California Dreaming, surf music... on and on... thank you....
Really glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much. We’re setting up our rather old school guitarist with one of these and this is a perfect display of what’s involved in getting started. GREAT VIDEO!!
Just bought the POD GO, whenever I try to turn it on the screen doesn't turn on. There is sound coming out, only the screen has an issue. It doesn't seem to be damaged on the outside. I guess it's a manufactoring defect?
I'm falling out of love with mine recently, it quite simply cannot compete with the sound of a true valve amp 'in the room' and I've concluded that modellers are more suited to recording, but not for playing live for various reasons.
Love the way you do this......great learning experience and quick out of the gate.......well done and thank you!
You are very welcome and thank you for the kind words.
You may want to update this video. I just got a Pod Go and it was very difficult to figure where or how to start installing the software/firmware. The manual says to start Pod Go Edit and it will instruct how to install. Well it didn't. The kicker is you need drivers installed first but there is nothing that explains how to do that. Luckily I found the Line 6 forum page that had a link on how to install the editor with drivers but it was an old version. I installed it anyway then went to the software update page and (again) downloaded the latest version. This time it worked and I was able to update to 1.30.0 on both Pro Edit and the Pod Go. It took me over an hour to figure this out!!
Mine isn't giving me the option for ALL SOFTWARE. Could you help me with that?
this is EXACTLY what i was looking for! Thank you so much :)
Great explanation, that really helped me decide to buy this. Answered a lot of questions not answered elsewhere; this is exactly how I would set up my user settings via PC.
Mine sounds terrible through my headphones. I have a pair of Audio Technica HM50x bt but I use it wired in and the guitar sounds distant.
Plugging pod go to the return side of a real guitar amp, using the pod go’s amp sim but turning cab sim off, does it make any difference if the guitar amplifier is a solid state or tube amp? I have a feeling that the sound will be do processed that it doesn’t matter but would appreciate the feedback of anyone who has tried this setup.
I am considering buying a pod go and possibly save some $$$ on the amp.
Helix Stomp vs Pod Go? Pros-cons-strategy?
excellent. Thank you.
Very welcome!
Might as well study the manual while i wait anxiously for mine to get here.
I did the same thing lol!
I miss the good old days when you demo’d EVH products. I guess you won’t be offering a demo of the new 50w Stealth head? Or the el34 5150’s? Some great new gear from them...
Hey you never know what's in the future for demos.
Great tutorial! Thanks. I just got my Pod Go this afternoon, and you definitely helped me get up and running faster than I would have myself!
can i plug this into focusrite 2i2 and use my monitor speakers? what would need plugging in exactly?
I watched this for 13 minutes and the you skipped over exactly what I needed to know which was how in the hell I hook it up yo play through my computer
Excellent video. Thinking about selling my Digitech RP350 and getting a Podgo. Thanks
Hey man, I already downloaded the updater, but for pod go edit, download the same version you did? or the latest one?
Question, I’m looking to buy one to use live. (I’m new to live playing) Would I need to buy a pre amp to make sure it’s loud enough? Or would it be perfectly fine out the box? Cheers!
Hey there! Great question. Nope you would not require a preamp. You could do one of 2 things. You could either run 1/4" TRS to XLR cables out of the unit to the board, or go 1/4" out to a DI BOX and from there out to the board. Depending on where you are playing and if they don't have a monitor mix for you, you could send 1 side of the output to the board and the other to something like Line 6 Powercab for your personal monitor. Hope this helps!
Thank you so much! I appreciate the help!
My only disappointment is the manuals not included and needed a download. Such a minor complaint but so many products do this ugh
This information was so good, it got me off the fence! So many advantages over my old Korg Toneworks AX-1500G (and hard to see display now). This is gonna be great since I'm a guitar player that's also a computer tech and love what you showed in modifying so much in real time. You answered my concern over user made presets availability, let alone how they are made, which is great!!! Not knocking my old Korg, but it has zero user presets, without losing a factory preset - not good.
Thank you for the great info and covering cool features!
You are very welcome and thank you as well for the very kind words!
This video is absolutely a must see for newbies like me . Just what the doctor ordered , very informative.
Really great video Eric. Thank you. Hands down the best intro video out there on the pod go.
Superb and simple instruction. Really enjoyed
because things have completly changed can you do a newer video?
How did I miss this oh I was eating 🤪
Pod go is Go!
No probs man!
Super helpful Eric - just installed the unit today with your assistance.
Super pleased to hear that! Thank you and enjoy your new helix!
I got my PodGo this week and your video is very helpful. Really appreciate your simple and clear explanation. Look forward to more content. All the best!
Congrats and thank you kindly!
Does anyone know which guitar is the one on the Line6 Relay gt10s photo?
Best video to learn how to program the POD GO!
Great start up tutorial ! I'll send you a beard & mustache trimmer.
i got mine last summer, been so busy at work barely powered up the unit maybe 3-4 times
Let’s have a look and see what this one sounds like! (Timeless) lol great vid!
I appreciate if you can demo IR Impulsive Response,,,
+10...stopping the flashing light. LOL great quick and info tutorial...Thanks friend!!
You are very welcome!
I really like the global settings you did. Have you a video about global EQ or better, availables preset EQ? That would be useful for your audience...
Thank you kindly, I have not done a full video on global settings but I may do that soon.
Do your know if wireless pod go send unit fits a Sandberg guitar input
How are you getting your audio? I plugged In the usb updated but no audio
Does anyone have one on how to use it with reason can't find a single video on how to get reason to read it.
Your tone really gives me some 80's vibes. Dokken, Ratt, etc. Sounds killer.
I truly appreciate that. Thank you kindly!!
Bought my Pod Go yesterday afternoon to replace my Floor Pod Plus. This video was extremely helpful! Thank you!
MK
Congrats on your purchase and you are more than welcome!
Is the Pod Go powered up during the firmware update?
Hi Eric , following your install direction thanks. Having some issues with downloading edit and update for some reason. I'm using an old version of windows like 8. Do you know why I am not seeing on far right side the block that word Public I see beta and Archival to check off? not sure if thats my problem. I see icons for both edit and update on desktop, but when I click update update icon it just gives me a blank page no option to check the podgo hence going further. Thanks in advance for your help .
Can you take a couple screen shots of the problems and send to my email address, I'll try and help. info@thehelixhour.com
20:55 Hello could anyone tell me if there is a pedal that reproduces this sound? I mean one of those little ones. Thank you.
Even a cheap chorus will get you somewhat close to the sound. It's technically pitch detune, but chorus will get you in the wheelhouse.
@@musicgearnetwork oh...tks!
They make pitch detune pedals.
Very helpful can a tablet be used with pod or must it be a pc?
What patches are readily available so I can download and start playing Def Leppard, others without understanding stomp boxes?
Here is a great bundle of 10 presets that will get you some great rock sounds and some nice clean too. A lot of my presets really get the good 80's tone. Hopefully these will help you. line6helixpresets.com/product/the-podgo-starter-kit/
how can i introduce this patchs on line 6 go pro can you telle me the manuel
I received my PodGo . Today I purchased your PodGo starter pack. Would you consider doing a video of how to get Line 6 marketplace products into the PodGo via my iMac desktop?
Hey there, thank you SO much for your purchase. That is a good idea. However until I can get to the video, if you email, I will send you a VERY helpful document provided to us via Line 6, that will make it very easy to get Marketplace presets onto your device. I will email you today. Contact me at info@thehelixhour.com
can't install Line 6 Updater on Big Sur
Good demonstration but too quick thanks a lot
Glad you liked it, I wanted to make a condensed video as many tutorials are too long. Hopefully it was of some help to you.
thanks a lot
@@musicgearnetwork Yes thanks but you must demo,strate slowly please i am French
Great video. Not boring fast and to the point.
I would introduce yours presets it is easy thanks
I'm about to get a Godin nylon electric, and I would rather avoid using an amplifier in my apartment so I was looking into this. Is it compatible with Garageband, would like to use this for recording.
yes indeed. It will make a wonderful interface for you into Garageband.
Dude, thank you! Getting my Pod Go set up seemed confusing until I found your vid.
So very happy to hear that. Thank you and have fun!
After got pod go wad to do? Play some sweet child o mind
I cant even begin to explain how great and useful this video was! Thank you so much
Really glad it helped you!
Hi, Jason wade channel sent me here, subscribed:) take care music friend
