Conﬁguring POD Farm 2 for MIDI Control

You rst need to congure the POD Farm 2 standalone application to receive MIDI communication

from your connected MIDI controller device. Be sure to connect your MIDI controller to your computer

before launching POD Farm 2, then make the following settings.

• Launch the POD Farm 2 Preferences dialog and go to the MIDI tab. Here you will be able select

any connected MIDI controller device (or any MIDI Input Port to which your controller device

is connected):

The Preferences, MIDI dialog - Selecting a MIDI Controller Device (Mac OS® X)*

*FBV MkII Users - Note that you’ll see the four FBV MkII MIDI ports appear titled differently depending

on you computer’s operating system.

Preferences - MIDI dialog on Windows® 7 & Windows® Vista

Preferences - MIDI dialog on Windows® XP

• In the above example you can see that we’ve chosen to receive MIDI from only the Port 1 output

of the connected Line 6 FBV Shortboard MkII controller. (Note that our connected Line 6 UX2

device is also an option, since its Footswitch 1 & 2 connections can be congured to send MIDI

commands!)

• You then need to congure your MIDI controller device to transmit whatever MIDI commands

are desired, as mentioned in “POD Farm 2 Plug-In MIDI Control” on page 4•34.
