Auto Assign Feature
The POD Go device’s Global Settings > Switches/Pedals > FS Auto Assign On/O
option determines whether or not POD Go automatically creates a bypass assignment
for each of the four Eects blocks (once a model is selected for the block), where a
block bypass assignment is added to the earliest empty FS1~FS6 location. FS Auto
Assign is On by default. You can also edit your bypass assignments for any block at
any time, regardless of the FS Auto Assign On/O state, as covered in the following
sections.
• For any Eects block, its bypass is auto-assigned to the earliest empty
FS1~FS6 for bypass when an initial model is added to the empty block. If the
block’s model is changed, the bypass assignment for the block remains on
the footswitch.
• Within all New Presets, the Preset EQ block’s bypass is pre-assigned to FS1,
and the FX Loop block’s bypass to FS2. However, you can Clear these blocks’
bypass assignments to free up FS1 & FS2 for auto and manual assignments
of other blocks.
NOTE: If you manually Clear the Preset EQ or FX Loop block’s bypass
assignment, and then change the model for the block, the Auto Assign
feature will again assign its block bypass to the rst non-assigned FS1~FS6.
• Wah and Volume blocks’ bypass is already pre-assigned to the pedal Toe
Switch. You can Clear these blocks’ bypass assignments if desired, but the
Auto Assign feature does not create assignments to the pedal Toe Switch. You
can manually create assignments to the Toe Switch as desired.
• Amp/Preamp, and Cab/IR blocks are not auto-assigned to footswitches, but
can be assigned manually.
• Once Auto Assign has created bypass assignments to all FS1 through FS6,
no other auto assignments are created within the preset (unless you manually
Clear assignments from FS1~FS6).
You’ll see more about these behaviors throughout this chapter, and in the POD Go
Owner’s Manual.
Creating a Controller Assignment
You can create a controller assignment for practically any block's parameter (yes,
even any Input, Output, FX Loop, or Looper block parameter!) to allow it to be
controlled by the device's footswitches or EXP Pedals. You can also congure
a snapshot assignment to allow your desired parameter settings to be stored &
recalled with a preset's snapshots. To follow are several examples for creating these
assignments.
Creating a Controller Assignment in the Edit Panel
The easiest way to create a controller assignment is directly from the parameter within the
Edit panel, such as for a Delay’s Mix parameter.
1. Click on the assignment indicator area left of the parameter (or right-click on
slider) directly within the Edit panel to display the quick Select a controller panel,
and then click on the desired controller to quickly create a controller assignment.

2. The new controller assignment is specied within the Edit panel with several
handy indicators. For our example, the Delay’s Mix parameter appears as
follows. Note that you can also adjust the Min. and Max. values to adjust the
range of control by the assigned EXP pedal or footswitch by dragging the
parameter slider’s Min. & Max. indicator arrows. (The Min. & Max. parameters
can also be accessed within the main Bypass/Control window - see next
section.)
