This Guide covers POD HD300 & HD400 devices with Flash Memory version 1.10 installed. It is highly recommended to use Line 6 Monkey™ to install the latest available Flash Memory version & all available updates - See “Appendix A: Line 6 Monkey™” on page A•1. Details throughout this Guide pertain to both POD HD300 & HD400, unless otherwise noted. Setup Options The Setup screen is where you configure system settings for POD HD. Most options can be left as-is after you’ve set them initially. They’ll be recalled each time you power-up and are “global” (the settings persist regardless of the current Preset). To access the Setup options, press the PRESETS knob, and use the Nav. Disc Left/Right arrow buttons to navigate to the SETUP menu: Use Up/Down to select the next/previous SETUP parameter Use Left/Right to navi- gate to SETUP menu Press knob to enter EDIT mode Rotate the knob to change the setting for the selected parameter Setup Details 1•2 Output Mode - Live Options Use the OUTPUT MODE switch on the back of your POD HD device to configure the type of signal fed to your outputs for Live mode (see “Output Mode Options” on page 2•5). Choose the setting that best matches your intended use. • ComboFrt: For connecting into the front input of a typical combo amp (this is the default setting). • ComboAmp: For connecting to the power amp of a combo amp. • StackFrt: For connecting into the front input of a typical amp head. • StackAmp: For connecting to the power amp of an amp head. AutoFX • AutoFX - Disabled: Selecting an Amp Model via the Amp knob does not alter any current FX models or settings. • AutoFX - AmpSetFX: When an Amp Model is selected from the Amp knob, FX models & settings are automatically changed to the assigned default values for the selected Amp Model. USB Monitor Level When utilizing POD HD as a USB audio device with your computer, this option controls the volume of your processed guitar tone output for monitoring. See “USB Audio” on page 8•1 for more information. Setup Details 1•3 Footswitch Mode We’ve offered two types of behaviors for how the MODE footswitch accesses the “Preset,” “Pedal” and “Looper” footswitch modes. (Please also see your POD HD Pilot’s Guide for more about the MODE footswitch.) • Normal: Sets the “Normal” behavior, where each click of the MODE footswitch incrementally selects one of the three modes: Preset Mode (green LED), Pedal Mode (amber LED) and Looper Mode (red LED). • Hold4Lpr: Sets an alternative “Hold for Looper” behavior, where clicking the MODE footswitch incrementally selects between only the Preset or Pedal Footswitch Modes. To enter Looper Mode, press and hold the MODE footswitch. To exit Looper Mode, simply click MODE again. AC Rate All POD HD Amp Models include simulation of AC hum typical of the AC Vacuum Tube Heater component, which is an important part of the tonality of a tube amplifier. Set the AC Rate to match that of the USA (60 Hz) or UK (50 Hz) frequency for authenticity. Note: This setting may be subtle depending on the current Amp Model settings and more apparent when synchronizing this setting with the AC rate of any tube amplifier that POD HD is plugged into. Setup Details 1•4 Tap T empo Light • TpLite - AlwaysOn: The TAP light on the device will flash constantly, showing the current tempo setting. • TpLite - AlwaysOn: The TAP light will flash only 8 times, immediately after a new Tempo value is set, and then remain unlit. Firmware Version Your device’s current firmware-flash memory version is displayed here. This is an informational screen only. Pedal Calibration Note: If you’ve just performed a Factory Restore on your device (see below), that process included Pedal Calibration and it is not necessary to perform the following steps again. However, you can use these instructions to perform just the Pedal Calibration process at any time. Before you put the POD HD pedal to use, it is recommended that you calibrate it to optimize its functionality. Begin with POD HD powered off. Hold down the D footswitch while powering the unit on, until you see the LCD display the following: Please skip ahead to step 5 of the Factory Restore section on page 1•5 and follow the remaining steps to complete the Pedal Calibration. Setup Details 1•5 Factory Restore To restore POD HD to all its original factory settings, first back up any Presets you’d like to keep (“POD HD Edit Software” on page 2•7), then follow these steps: NOTE: This process also performs a Pedal Calibration, and it is necessary that you complete ALL the steps listed here when dong a Factory Restore. However, if you want to perform only a Pedal Calibration, please see “Pedal Calibration” on page 1•4. 1. Begin with POD HD powered off. Hold down the A footswitch while powering the unit on, until you see the LCD display the following: 2. Press the PRESETS knob, then press it again to proceed once you see the following prompt: 3. Watch the LCD screen and you’ll see it display the progress %. Do not touch any controls on the device during this process. 4. Once it reaches 100%, you are prompted to start the Pedal Calibration process. Press the D footswitch to proceed. 5. You are next prompted to press and hold the pedal’s “toe” switch: Setup Details 1•6 6. Press the pedal firmly all the way forward to click the toe switch and hold this position for a few seconds until you see the next prompt. 7. As instructed, move the pedal to the minimum “heel” position and press the D switch. 8. Move the pedal to the maximum forward position (but do not click the toe switch) and press D. 9. At this point, the pedal is calibrated but not saved. If calibrated correctly, moving the pedal will display values from 0-127 on the LCD screen. 7. Press D switch once again to save if all is correct to perform the save. Please wait while your device re-initializes itself and the Presets screen is displayed.
