    Pod Go users: This video will catapult your tone crafting abilities. Fast. I saw this video the day I bought my PG, 6 months ago, but didn't really listen. By explaining the effect of the changes to certain parameters, Ritchie is giving you the keys to the kingdom. There is a ridiculous amount of information in this video...if you listen. I've spent 6 months, working around my PG, not with it. After listening today to what Ritchie's saying, I'm creating beautiful tones that take my playing to new levels. Thank you Ritchie. You're a fantastic teacher and a monster player. I subscribed.

    This is by far the best video I’ve seen as far as showing how to create patches on this unit. I am by no means what you would call tech savvy and although I’ve been looking into these types of units in a attempt to downsize and simplify my rig, I’ve been a little hesitant because I feared that it would be too complicated to navigate. You make it look easy and I think I am ready to pull the trigger. Thank you!! 👍

    Dude. I got a PodGo today and spent hours trying different preloaded patches and downloading some off the web that were “ok” but after watching your video I can’t wait to dive back in and create my own.
    I kept seeing people saying their patches were the best and their demos sounded great of course but when I would use them, they just didn’t jive right with my ears and guitars.
    Thank you so much for your expertise and showing how easy it is to make presets from scratch. I’m not someone who has a lot of experience using amps and pro gear due to never having the money for it so the PodGo is such a game changer for a modest gigger like myself. I’ve got a gig this weekend and I can’t wait to show off my new tones!

Your video is by far the best I’ve seen and that’s no discredit to the others I’ve watched. You have demonstrated how to preform the more complex actions on the unit in a really simple way! I had no idea that the PG was capable of some of the stuff you have demonstrated.

    This is a little long but if you're on the fence about modeling this could be a worthwhile read.
    I bought one of these for late night practicing through headphones and the occasional fly gig/jam. It sounds so good to me that it has become my main rig, but there’s an important catch- I bypass the cab sims and put it straight into the fx loop return of my Bad Cat Cub 15R because, let’s face it, FRFR systems cannot recreate the “amp in a room” sound.
    Although I’m not about to part with my Eventide H9, the effects on board are good to excellent. I’m still pretty floored by how uniformly great this setup sounds. Just so you don’t think I’m some easily impressed noob, I’ve been playing since the early 80’s and own or have owned great amps by the likes of Mesa (at least 6), Carr, Friedman, Budda, Fender CS, Orange, Rivera, Revv, and so-on. I’ve had my favorites from these brands and I can really say that the Pod Go into my Bad Cat’s fx loop return puts as big a smile on my face as any of the above amps.
    Maybe I just got lucky and the Bad Cat just happens to “like” the Pod Go and it’s a great combination just by chance? Eventually I’ll pull out other amps to find out. I also think it’s important to mention that in my experience it doesn’t sound good into the front of an amp which makes sense given that you’re putting a modeled preamp into a real preamp in this scenario.
    Modeling has really come of age IMHO. If you’re tired of lugging a big rig around and you’re intrigued by modeling but don’t like the FRFR experience you should consider this kind of setup. You may be very surprised. Oh yeah, the day after I bought this I got an email from Fractal as I'd been on their waiting list for the past 6 months for a FM3. With all the confidence that I was making the right choice and zero regret to date, I told them I was going to pass. YMMV

    Rick, just one small thing about your Line 6 demo/instructions and that is - where you put the foot Volume control in you Pod setup. The Compressor should be before the Vol Control and not the other way round. If you think about it, by putting the Vol first then if the foot control is reduced, then the Compressor has nothing the work with as the headroom has gone.
    A compressor works by increasing the volume of the quite parts and decreasing the loud parts. Which is what you want. However, by putting the foot Volume first the compressor will trying to increase the vol or the quite notes

      @@RichieCastellano okay, but other guitarists may use one, and it's not in the most effective place. Mine is towards the right or later on in the signal chain, before the Echo.
      Another point is that the distortion effect is also compromised by the vol on the left. You can check this out by reducing the Vol Control on the guitar while playing a distorted sound.
      So to simplify this I recommend that both Distprtion/Crunch and Compression/ Sustain come first. Cheers. Neil Anderson UK

    Richie, thanks for this video. I just got a Pod Go wireless and this is extremely helpful. I have a question that maybe you or anyone else watching might be able to help me with. I need some help setting up the volume pedal so it doesn't just go from 0 to 100. I'm sure there's a way to configure it so I can do volume swells. I've tried to mess with it but can't seem to make it so the swell is gradual. Any help would be appreciated!

      @@mariorojas3724 They are free on Line 6 Customtone website, you can find the links in the video description. After some tweaking to taste Richie's crunch and lead presets are still my go to for overdriven sounds. Keep in mind however that the presets were created using Ownhammer's Mesa IR. I hope that helps!
