Getting Around, Tones & Tuner
2•3
From any Edit page, you can also use the Left and Right buttons to step through the other Edit Pages, in this
order:
AMP > STOMP > MOD > DLY > VERB > GATE > COMP >EQ >WAH > VOL > LOOP (POD X3
Live & POD X3 Pro only)
To return to the Home Page from an Edit Page, you can either press the Home button or double-press the
On/Off button.
By the way, you can also directly edit and turn blocks on or off using the POD X3 and POD X3 Pro Keypad or
POD X3 Live Footswitches. You know the drill—press to turn blocks on or off, and double-press to tweak.
Many of these blocks can be configured to be Pre or Post, so their location in the Home Page can visually
change depending on how they’re assigned.
The Dual Tone Concept
One of the most powerful features of POD X3, POD X3 Live and POD X3 Pro is Dual Tone capability. What
is Dual Tone, you ask? There are actually two (2) completely independent Tone paths available in POD X3,
POD X3 Live and POD X3 Pro! This allows you to:
Process two (2) completely independent Tones for two separate inputs at the same time, such as your
guitar plus a microphone. We like to refer to these as tone “Pairs”.
or
Use two (2) completely independent Tones on a single input. This is like running through (2) amps at
once! We call these tone “Blends”.
or
Set up one sound on Tone 1, and a different sound on Tone 2, and switch between them instantly, with
seamless transitions including delay and reverb trails. We like to refer to this as “Alternating” tones.
There are essentially (3) steps to getting Dual Tone going on POD X3, POD X3 Live and POD X3 Pro:
1. Assign inputs. To assign inputs to each Tone, press the Inputs button and select the input or
combination of inputs to feed Tone 1 and Tone 2.
