"The patch is only as good as you're playing." Very good advice there! I used to get frustrated that why all the VST djent tone tutorials wouldn't work for me, when I realised how much of it is in the proper picking and palm muting technique. If you have those, you can get almost anything to djent!
I don't know how I missed this for two and a half years, but thank you so much for uploading it. I followed someone else's tutorial when I first got mine but eventually assumed I couldn't get the tone I wanted with the stock EMGs I was using. You took a different route than them to achieving that tone and it made all the difference, because this one tone now sounds great on both my 6-string AND 8-string.
glad to see you mentioned the right hand , so many people think some angular notes and playing off time is djenty , it's all in tight and aggressive picking , cheers man great video
I just wanted to say thank you , cuz you made me buy a POD hd pro x a few days ago . Im absolutely lovin it . One of the best choices i made in the last 5 years . Cheers .
I think something like that yeah , but theres so much things that affects the sound your getting from pod . For example : 6 or 7 or 8 string guitar , the pickups you using *ceramic or alnico* . And of course if you use it through speakers or a cab . ( digital recording or if ur using a mic ) .
Theora Band yeah, i know about that but i want to know if the preamp, the quality of the POD to record is that good, i want to record a album, and i have a interface know that cant handle the job
I donno i use the digital output of the device with USB connection . For me it sounds great . Check my channel and you can hear how it sounds with my mixes . Of course u need to some post EQ in the mixes . My songs recorded with pod : Theora - Horizon , and the God Of The Sun .
I think this vid might be one of the most enlightening videos around guitar sound cause actually more or less with such settings u can have a great sound in almost any multy-effect or rack simulator.cheers mate,really good job★★★★★
Hey buddy, thank you very much for this video :) I bought the POD one week ago and I still need to learn more about it. This tutorial helped me a lot! I love that tone. I hope that one day we can do a dual guitar cover. :)
Hello Milian. I would like to contact you to ask you a question. Please, I would like to know which module between the line6 pod 3 x pro and the line6 hd x is the one that would best match to have modern sound. Which of the two seems to you to have the most sound qualities, the most effects and to be the most efficient? I am still waiting for a response from you. THANKS. Sincerely.
yeah ur right finally I figured it out. my past past patches are full of fucking eq and it sounds terrible but then thanknyou so much for this video love it.
The first time I watched your video, I managed to get a pretty decent sound out of my POD HD ProX. Then I downloaded a patch that was designed to sound like Humanity's Last Breath and from then on, I've been having trouble with over saturation, which is why next week I will take your advice again and use the KISS method. One thing I've learned is that the guitar tone you design for yourself is one thing. Putting on makeup over your tone to make it sound even prettier in a recording studio is another world all together.
Thanks for the tutorial. Never thought of experimenting with "pre" version for direct recording tones. I agree, +1 for straight and linear tones, and for paying attention to picking dynamics. Also string gauge makes an absolute difference
To be honest, by now I think: no. At least not for me. Still have my HD500 but I only use it as interface and use VST amp sims that are much much better. I just stick to the POD for some ambient Tesseract style cleans.
are you plugged into an amp? i dont have an fx loop on my amp. is it a bad idea to use an amp simulation through my amp input clean channel? really need help with this one =(
Hey Man, thanks for share you experience and information, i have a question and i would be too much gratefull if you answer me; How do you connect the POD HD PROX to the Laney??? POD output- Laney Return??? greetings from Chile!
You can play through a normal guitar cab as well. You'll need a power amp. I run my Eleven Rack live with a rocktron velocity 100 power amp through my celestion v type loaded 2x12. Any patches you make with the cab Sims on will need tweaked a bit. Make sure to turn the cabs off if you run through an actual guitar cab.
Would I have any issues running this setup directly into a 4 chan mixer hooked to big ass jbl dual 15 mains or would I be better off running a mic cabinet to the mixer?
Gotcha. Well you can hook it up directly for sure! Running it through a cab and micing that up will get you a totally different result though, it depends on what you're after! I guess having some real air in the signal chain will get you a much more organic tone than just the POD straight into it.
Soulhenge Gear Reviews I've been thinking about getting that line 6 for awhile but my pa system is already monstrous I would prefer not adding anymore cabs if it doesent effect tone negatively
Hi! Thanks for the help dude, my tone have changed so much. I've never tried before the PRE configuration of the pod HD. Have you tried this patch playing with a band? How does it work?
I'm looking for some help here in deciding whether or not the Pod Hd pro x is worth the extra money over the pod hd500. Does anyone have experience with both of the units and can give me some pros or cons to either one?
Well the HD Pro X is a rack unit, whereas the HD500 is a floorboard. I traded my HD Pro X against a HD500 because it's MUCH easier for live use. Otherwise the rack unit has more connections and a stronger processor (but the same sound) so you can build more complex patches. However the power of my HD500 is sufficient for every normal patch. It's just getting weak when you want to play with 2 guitars through it at once for example. There, an X would have a better performance.
Vraiment ton son est le son que j'ai recherché depuis que je fais de la gratte (6 ans), je suis passé par tout un tas d'amplis et ta vidéo m'a donné envie de passer sur ce Line 6, tu en penses quoi ? :) Et as tu travaillé certains morceaux en particulier pour bosser ta rythmique ? J'adore Monuments aussi mais n'ayant pas de 7 cordes, je sais pas vraiment quoi bosser pour m'améliorer dans ce style la .. Superbe vidéo en tout cas ;)
Merci beaucoup! Le POD c'est vraiment magnifique. Hm difficile à dire, je ne joue pas trop de chansons de Monuments non plus car c'est trop pour moi haha. La technique et la force dans la main droite viennent avec le temps. Je joue des trucs comme ça tout le temps et finalement c'est plus un 'pain in the ass' de jouer du staccato à la Monuments.
A lot of people talk about axe fx, but god damn its only a matter of tweaking stuff and you can get awesome tones! do you go diret to PC from the pod? how is latency while changing presets on the pod hd pro with midi controller? is it the same as a pod hd500x? or the Pro is better on sound and cpu quality?
yes directly via USB! I used to change patches on the HD Pro X via Behringer MIDI footswitch, but that wasn't really satisfying, I'm happier with the HD500. I think soundwise, there's no difference at all.
@@huntmaguire8363 if you are using the pod with a power amp and real cab you will want to turn the cab sim off in the pod. And that would be a large reason why your sound doesn't sound the same as this. The tone you are hearing in the video is through his computer speakers with a cab simulation in the pod. Your cab likely sounds nothing like the cab model in this video (unless you have an ENGL pro 412 cab)
+llatzer criado No I record 2 rhythm guitar tracks only, each panned 100% left and right. Drums is Addictive Drums 2. Monuments is one of my favorite bands ;)
+Carlos Hiram Trevino B I'm using it direct. While tweaking, you hear the direct signal recorded through the POD but also the real strumming sound recorded by the mic to record my voice. While tweaking I listened to the direct sound over my headphones. The demonstration of picking later in the video is the sound of the POD coming through the monitors recorded by the mic to record my voice. Is it this what you wondered about? :)
Great tone! I'm going to try adding this to my HD Pro tonight. Could I ask what you used for the drums in this video? They sound great and pack a lot of punch.
Thanks for your tutorials and music dude, subbed instantly! What is your opinion on using a compressor, such as the RED or TUBE COMP in the POD HD 500 ? What sort of clarity to do you find as opposed to using the amp head distortion.
I've been using the red comp before the screamer with basically your same configuration, with good results. But I have to set the amp gain very low to maintain any kind of clarity. I wish there where more subtle variations of the compressor, this one is too either full on or too little compression. It's hard to get an even and natural sounding tone with the compressors in my experience.
Hey this is the best Rhythm patch I've gotten for my POD HD PRO X, could you make a video on a tone for lead/riffing tone to play over this rhythm patch? Thanks :)
Boss gt 100 have vintage sounds . Sounds more digital . POD HD is way better . Its easier to make it sound good , and i think its good for modern metal . I had the BOSS GT 100 and i used it for 3 years but i bought the POD HD pro x a few days ago and its much much better i can tell you ...
Awesome tone, man! Does the pro x need to be hooked up to a power amp when you're running it into your DAW? It functions as it's own interface right? Thanks!
No for recording you just use the POD and nothing else :) It basically is an interface with guitar tones in it. You can also plug in your mic via XLR and record vocals.
En fait moi j'ai une veille enceinte, et non pas des vrais moniteurs. C'est super pour moi pour écouter de la musique et pour enregistrer. Pour le mixage j'utilise des écouteurs.
Noise Gate before distortion or pre-amp? That's a no-no since it affects the dynamics of your dry signal (thus taking some gain away as you mentioned), making your softly picked parts or the ends of sustaining notes silent. To correctly remove dist/amp hum and fizz, you have to put it after them.
There's no right or wrong here in my opinion. I put the noise gate first because I want noise to be taken out before it gets amplified. If you use a real amp and a real noise gate pedal it will also be in that position of the signal chain. Of course this is a topic that is based on personal preference and experimenting! ;)
But you can remove the noise just as well after it has been amplified. The only difference is that you don't affect your dry signal, keeping your playing dynamics intact. And you can't remove all noise any way, because your guitar or amp or whatever is still making noise when you are playing normally, and you can't touch that.
Btw I tried your version @mkaali (noise gate after amp sim) and it does not work properly. It's called a noise GATE not noise filter or something. When you are not playing, you risk making unwanted noises though, which you don't want. As you start playing, the gate fully opens and let's through the entire signal (as far as concern a real noise gate pedal, not the POD intern). It's about stopping unwanted noises while muting etc BEFORE they get amplified!
This is a very interesting and reasonably priced device. I wonder why Line 6 is pulling the plug on it? The Helix seems to be twice as expensive and the RUclips videos I've listened to that compares them side by side, I can't really tell the difference, other than you pay $1000 for the Helix LT ($400 for the Helix Native software, when it's released) or higher. Whereas you might be able to pick up a Pod HD $500 or less! It looks like it's also a PC audio interface as well.
shitmandood: well it's a matter of taste and priorities maybe. I was able to test both Line 6s side by side and the Helix is a big step up I think. But I understand if you'd think the huge price gap is not worth that certain improvement that you get.
@@MilianMalivukMusic I have the 15 watt version of the studio and it's cool, but if John browne really used that one, I'm not sure I'm good at tweaking as him
Well depending on your guitar and pickups, you can add an EQ to slightly boost certain frequencies. But since I use this for recording I like to keep it as simple as possible to get a neutral signal.
Yes actually use them live (of course then without any cab sim since you play through a real cab) with some minor tweaking. It actually sounds brilliantly clear.
It sounds great, but, the actual guitar pick sound is about as loud as the output and messes with my head. Yes, I know this comment is 7 years too late, but my mind told me to write anyway. lol
Hey, I'm very new to guitar, so this might be kind of a dumb question but other than this machine, what do you need? Is it just guitar into the line 6, into the computer? How do I like hear what I'm playing lol
+Jacob Acosta Master Scribe Well the Line 6 has a headphones output, so you can play guitar through the POD without having a computer. The USB connection is just if you want to record. You can also connect the POD to the computer and send the signal through the computer and its headphones output. Basically you can easily connect any speakers or headphones to listen!
"The patch is only as good as you're playing."
Very good advice there!
I used to get frustrated that why all the VST djent tone tutorials wouldn't work for me, when I realised how much of it is in the proper picking and palm muting technique.
If you have those, you can get almost anything to djent!
To be able to keep the signal that simple and get that tone is what sold me on the POD. Good video man.

are you plugged into an amp? i dont have an fx loop on my amp. is it a bad idea to use an amp simulation through my amp input clean channel? really need help with this one =(
Hm this is something I really wouldn't recommend. Maybe try selling the amp and buy a poweramp if you really wanna go for the POD sound!
Plug it to FX return, if you have FX Loop in your amp. That will skip the pre amp
This is gold! Thanks
Love you!
Do I need to buy any of the packs to get the sounds you have or are there any that are just automatically loaded?
It's all doable with the factory amps!

hey milian do you remember how did you set up the input settings? guitar-guitar or guitar-variax, or else? thx
Idk what his was, but I read that its best to do just guitar to get rid of excess noise.
what things do i need to play live with it? just plug in directly to a cab ? (i'm new in this)
Hi! Please check out my rig rundown video on this channel where I explain this in detail! Hope it helps!
the patch used for run into PA or into return on the amp is the same? Just enable/disable cab simulation or need some other adjusts?
Hi! Basically yes, maybe you have to do minor adjustments on the amp simulation EQ in case your cab sim is quite different from your real cab.
You can play through a normal guitar cab as well. You'll need a power amp. I run my Eleven Rack live with a rocktron velocity 100 power amp through my celestion v type loaded 2x12.

There's no right or wrong here in my opinion. I put the noise gate first because I want noise to be taken out before it gets amplified.
If you use a real amp and a real noise gate pedal it will also be in that position of the signal chain.
Of course this is a topic that is based on personal preference and experimenting! ;)
+Soulhenge Sometimes I put two noise gates in my signal chain of the POD. One before and one after the amp to get a really cleaned up signal.
But you can remove the noise just as well after it has been amplified. The only difference is that you don't affect your dry signal, keeping your playing dynamics intact. And you can't remove all noise any way, because your guitar or amp or whatever is still making noise when you are playing normally, and you can't touch that.
have u ever seen periphery old rig rundown .......
Btw I tried your version @mkaali (noise gate after amp sim) and it does not work properly.
It's called a noise GATE not noise filter or something. When you are not playing, you risk making unwanted noises though, which you don't want. As you start playing, the gate fully opens and let's through the entire signal (as far as concern a real noise gate pedal, not the POD intern). It's about stopping unwanted noises while muting etc BEFORE they get amplified!
This is a very interesting and reasonably priced device. I wonder why Line 6 is pulling the plug on it? The Helix seems to be twice as expensive and the RUclips videos I've listened to that compares them side by side, I can't really tell the difference, other than you pay $1000 for the Helix LT ($400 for the Helix Native software, when it's released) or higher. Whereas you might be able to pick up a Pod HD $500 or less! It looks like it's also a PC audio interface as well.
shitmandood: well it's a matter of taste and priorities maybe. I was able to test both Line 6s side by side and the Helix is a big step up I think. But I understand if you'd think the huge price gap is not worth that certain improvement that you get.
does that guitar need battery?
No it has passive pickups
Shit sounds great dude
Keep it up man, you're great. + any plans on a similar video with a laney Irt studio?
Maybe trying to get my hands on one! I own the 60W IRT head and it's such a sick amp.
@@MilianMalivukMusic I have the 15 watt version of the studio and it's cool, but if John browne really used that one, I'm not sure I'm good at tweaking as him
I don't know why some people hated line 6 so much untill it became "a denial", the quality of the sound are not bad. :/
Good
No eqs?
Well depending on your guitar and pickups, you can add an EQ to slightly boost certain frequencies. But since I use this for recording I like to keep it as simple as possible to get a neutral signal.
Ahah why is the tilte in french ?
Hey bro! Can this patch be good for live proposes?!... Nice tut! lml
Yes actually use them live (of course then without any cab sim since you play through a real cab) with some minor tweaking. It actually sounds brilliantly clear.
Perfect bro!, Thanks lml
Don't use them strings on nickel frets then XLs will tear them up because they are stainless steel
It sounds great, but, the actual guitar pick sound is about as loud as the output and messes with my head. Yes, I know this comment is 7 years too late, but my mind told me to write anyway. lol
This is definitely something I corrected in newer videos 😄
got it!!!!,.. but um,, dont like the pick sound RIGHT THERE.,. distraction ))))) thx! ))) i like Kemper doe!
Left to Die @6:40? :D loved the video
Actually it's "Graveless" by Periphery 😅
I lost my shit at 1:23
+Blake Mullens Hope you found it again ;)
Make a video on line 6 pod go!!!
are you plugged into a interface or directly into the computer?
Directly into the computer via USB.
Hey, I'm very new to guitar, so this might be kind of a dumb question but other than this machine, what do you need? Is it just guitar into the line 6, into the computer? How do I like hear what I'm playing lol
+Jacob Acosta Master Scribe Well the Line 6 has a headphones output, so you can play guitar through the POD without having a computer. The USB connection is just if you want to record.
You can also connect the POD to the computer and send the signal through the computer and its headphones output. Basically you can easily connect any speakers or headphones to listen!
