Firmware, Drivers & Software

Computer Connectivity
To put the POD Go Edit application to work, connect POD Go to your computer’s USB
port. As mentioned above, for Windows computers it is necessary to install the Line
6 POD Go drivers (included and installed by default with the POD Go Windows app
installer) to be able to use the POD Go Edit application with your device.
Exit any other Line 6 or audio applications that may be running. With your POD Go
device powered on, launch POD Go Edit.
• Mac: Go to Applications > Line 6 > POD Go Edit
• Windows: Go to the Start button menu > All Apps (or Programs) > Line 6 >
POD Go Edit
Upon launch, the application will detect your connected POD Go hardware and
automatically retrieve and display its on-board presets & Impulse Responses. This
may take a moment to download all of the preset information.
If a connected POD Go device is not detected by your computer, you’ll see the “No
device” indicator appear at the top left of the application.
No Device Connected indicator
If you see this indicator, check to make sure your POD Go device is powered on and
connected to your computer’s USB port. If on Windows, be sure you have the Line 6
POD Go driver installed.
Automatic Firmware Update Check
Upon launch of POD Go Edit, it will automatically check the Line 6 online server for
a newer rmware version for your connected POD Go device (if you have an active
Internet connection, and have signed in within POD Go Edit). If a rmware update is
available, you’ll see a pop-up alert shortly after launching the application.
Firmware update available pop-up alert
Choosing Update Now launches the built in Firmware Updater and walks you
through the update process painlessly - see page 58 for details. Or you can click to
read the available rmware’s Release Notes, or choose to Remind Me Later and just
use the application without updating your device.
The Update available indicator also appears at the bottom of the main application
window if a rmware update is available. You can optionally click this button to launch
the Firmware Updater.
Compatibility with Other Line 6 Products
POD Go presets, setlists, or backup les are not compatible with other Line 6
hardware and software products at this time. However, POD Go supports the same
format Impulse Response (IR) les as Line 6 Helix and HX™ devices and the Helix
Native plug-in. This means that you can essentially obtain IRs that any vendor oers
for Line 6 Helix/HX devices and import them directly into the POD Go Edit Impulses
Library!
TIP: A great selection of POD Go compatible IRs are available right now in the
Line 6 Marketplace online shop!
