TIP: Setlists and the Tone Presets within them can be navigated using MIDI Bank & Program Change
messages from an external MIDI Controller - Please see “POD Farm 2 Plug-In MIDI Control” on page 4•34.
Mixer View
The Mixer View is the place to go to get control over the audio input and output options for the Tone
A and Tone B signal paths. It is important to note that the POD Farm 2 Plug-In is capable of either
mono, mono-stereo, or stereo operation, depending on the options your DAW software provides.
(DAW applications that offer mono or stereo plug-in congurations will display these options in their
Plug-In insert menus.) When POD Farm 2 Plug-In is used as a stereo output plug-in, both Tone A and
Tone B are each stereo signal paths, and therefore, these mixer controls allow you to independently
set their output levels and panning. When POD Farm 2 Plug-In is used as a mono output Plug-In, the
outputs of both Tone A and Tone B are each processed as a mono signal before they are fed to the main
(mono) output of the plug-in. The controls offered for each Tone A and Tone B are described here.

Input Source Menus - Depending on your DAW host software’s features,* when using the stereo POD
Farm 2 Plug-In, you can select the input source (left channel, right channel, both channels) of the
track’s audio that is fed into each of the Plug-In’s Tone Paths. (When using the Mono-Stereo version
of POD Farm 2 Plug-In, these Input Menus are not displayed.) Note that you’ll see different options if
POD Farm 2 Plug-In is running a Single Tone or Dual Tone conguration:
• When in Single Tone Mode, you’ll see the options of Stereo, Left, or Right.
• Stereo allows the Tone path to receive both audio channels from the DAW host.
• Left or Right allows the Tone path to receive input from the respective audio channel only.
• When in Dual Tone Mode (as pictured above), you’ll see the options of Left or Right for each
Tone, which allow each Tone path of the Plug-In to receive input from the respective audio
channel only.
• When you select one common input source for both Tone A and B (such as shown in the
above screen shot, where the “Left” channel audio source is selected for both Tones) the
A/B box becomes active, allowing you to choose how this audio is fed to Tones A & B (see
the following A/B Switch Box description).
• When the Plug-In is inserted on a stereo track or aux bus in your DAW project, you’ll
probably want to set one Tone input to Left and the other to Right to allow you to process
each audio channel independently.
