Premium Marketplace IRs
If you’ve purchased and downloaded premium IRs from the Line 6 Marketplace (see
page 34), you must be signed in to your Line 6 account within POD Go Edit, which
authorizes your computer to allow POD Go Edit to initially import or export these IRs
(as well as for the restore of any backup that includes premium IRs).* Marketplace
premium IRs are proprietary to Line 6 POD Go and Helix family products, and are of
the .hir le type.
*NOTE: Once you've initially imported your Marketplace assets to sync their
licenses with your account, you don't need to have POD Go Edit actively signed
in to use them—and it is not necessary to even be connected to the Internet once
your computer has been authorized. Please see “Authorize / Deauthorize Your
Computer” on page 36.
Premium Marketplace IRs are otherwise able to be utilized just like any of your other
IRs within the Impulses library. When imported, these premium Marketplace .hir IR
les are indicated by guitar pick “badges” to their right.

Renaming, Copying, Pasting & Clearing IRs
These actions can be performed by selecting their respective commands from the
Edit menu. You can also right-click to choose these options from the context menu of
any IR’s index slot (or use the app's “Keyboard Shortcuts”).
Drag and Drop IRs
There are several drag and drop options that allow you to import and export single,
or multiple, IR les between your computer’s directories and POD Go Edit, as listed
below.
• Import - Drag one or more IR les from your computer folder directly into
the Impulses list. When multiple les are being dragged in, they are imported
starting with the selected IR index slot.
• Export - Select one or more IR index locations and drag from the Impulses
list directly to your computer to export the IR les to the selected hard drive
folder.
NOTE: When exporting IRs from the POD Go Edit Impulses list, any
Marketplace-purchased IR is saved to your computer as a Helix IR (.hir)
type le. The .hir les are proprietary to Line 6 products, and licensed to you via
the Line 6 Account on which you purchased them. Any IR that was originally
imported as a .wav le is exported as a .wav le.
• Copy - It is also possible to drag and drop IRs within the Impulses list to
create a copy of the IR in a new index location.*
*NOTE: There are no options oered to move or reorder IRs in a single
operation. Use the Copy, Paste and Clear functions to rearrange IRs within
the Impulses list as needed. (Also see the following “IR File Reference” section.)
Loading an IR in an IR Block
Once you’ve imported IR les into the IR Library, the easiest way to load an IR into
your current preset is to simply click on the Impulses folder icon to display the IR
Library, then double-click on the desired IR within the library list. This automatically
changes the Cab/IR block to the IR category within the Signal Flow (if it is not
already), and loads the selected IR le within it.
Just double-click on any IR within the Impulses list to load it in the IR block
If you select the Cab/IR block directly within the Signal Flow, and then choose the IR
category, it initially defaults to referencing the IR that resides within the #1 IR index
location. (If you have not yet imported any IR le into the referenced index location,
the “empty” IR block has no audible eect on the signal.)
NOTE: The use of an IR block requires a higher amount of Digital Signal
Processor (DSP) usage as compared to a standard Cab model. A pop-up alert
will let you know if your preset encounters the DSP limit, preventing the loading of an
IR—please see “DSP Management & Model Availability” on page 23.
