Note that the Looper display’s icons represent what each footswitch will do when pressed,
and not the function that the Looper is currently performing.
• Trails (Knob 4): When set to “On,” allows the echo repeats and/or decay of Delay
and Reverb FX to continue when the Model is toggled Off. With the Trails option
“Off” the decay is muted instantly when toggling the Model Off. This setting is
saved per Preset.
• The FX Loop also utilizes Trails - bypassing the FX Loop with this feature enabled
causes the Return to remain active while the Send is shut Off.
• The Trails feature does not provide a “spillover” of the FX decay when changing
Presets.
Page 2, Setup: Utilities Options
The options at the bottom of the screen are as follows - all are global settings:
• LCD Contrast (Knob 1): Adjusts the screen’s contrast.
• Tap Tempo LED (Knob 2): Choose “On” to have the LED light for the TAP
footswitch ash to indicate the current Tap Tempo value. Choose “Off” to have it
remain unlit.
• AC Frequency (Knob 3): All HD Amp Models include simulation of AC hum, typical
of the AC Vacuum Tube Heater component - an important part of the tonality of
a tube amplier. Set the AC Rate to match that of the USA (60Hz) or UK (50Hz)
frequency for authenticity. (This setting may be subtle depending on the current
Amp Model settings, and may be more apparent when synchronizing this setting
with the AC rate of any tube amplier that POD HD500 may be plugged into.)
