Common Terminology
While reading this manual, you may encounter several unfamiliar terms. It’s important
to know what they mean.
Block
Blocks are objects that represent various elements of your tone, such as
amps,cabs,eects,loopers,inputs,outputs,andimpulseresponses.
POD Go can accommodate one amp/preamp block, one cab/IR block,
a Wah block, a Volume pedal block, a Preset EQ block, an FX Loop
block,anduptofouradditionaleectsblocks,allsimultaneously.
Model
Each block can accommodate one model. POD Go includes over 70
guitar and bass amp models, 37 cab models, 16 mic models, and over
200 eects models. See page 13 for the complete lists of included
models, and the gear they are based on.
Preset
A preset is your tone. It consists of all blocks, parameter settings,
snapshots, footswitch assignments, and controller assignments.
Send/
Return
The stereo TRS Send and Return jacks are used to insert your favorite
stompboxes anywhere in the signal ow, or for connecting to your
guitar amp via 4-Cable Method - see "FX Loop Settings" on page 24.
IR
IRs (Impulse Responses) are mathematical functions representing the
sonic measurements of audio systems and are most often used for cab
tones. POD Go can store up to 128 custom or third-party IRs at a time.*
See "Cab/IR" on page 15.
*NOTE: To import IRs into your POD Go hardware, you'll need to download and
install the latest Line 6 POD Go Edit application. POD Go Edit is not only an
indispensable librarian for managing and backing up all your presets and IRs, but
