Sorry guys. I tried searching the thread for this, but 375 pages is a lot of material.

Is the DSP limit difference on the hd500x that noticeable? I'm deciding on whether I want to pick up a used 500 or just bite the bullet on a hd500x.

It's about 20% more on the X, so you're looking at maybe an extra delay or reverb, but it's not going to dramatically increase the amount of effects you can use. Personally, I use the regular 500, and I've only ever hit the DSP limit making stupid sounding patches just for the sake of having fun, my regular gigging patches have 1 amp, noise gate, and a few effects like pitch shifting and tremolo.

I've been drooling over Axe FXs all week, so today I decided to sit and have some fun with my 500x. Made some cool ambient stuff, Devin Townsend style. I know the video's not much, but I'm happy to share patches if anyone's interested.

Did I hear a bit of Heart Baby by Devin Townsend in there? :D

Nice patch man ^^

Hey guys! So, I never really use this thread, or ask for much on here, but I was wondering if anyone would be down to help me crack some tones? (By the way, I'm an admin over at the POD HD Facebook page.)

So.....my ears are failing me here. I'm trying to use my POD HD500 to crack some of the sounds here on the old Silversun Pickups hit "Lazy Eye". (The POD seems to be about the only way to do this without a board of way too many effect pedals.)

I'm trying to get the super delayed clean tone that you hear come in at around the 3:43-3:44 mark in the sound. (You'll hear it get louder around the 4:08-4:09 as the song goes on.) It really adds some serious density to the mix.

I'm also trying to nail Brian's main (rather clean) lead tone that you can hear all throughout the song (0:20 onwards). This lead tone has remained fairly consistent throughout the band's career with minimal changes. (Give a listen to their song "Panic Switch" which also has some nice moments where you can hear the leads perfectly through the mix as well. I'll attach a second link.)

Anyone able to help?

Nice track man, I saw that you were new in the member introductions section (not much newer than myself)

Have you uploaded those patches?



I will also say that in January I lent my HD500 to another band at an In Hearts Wake show, and the power supply was lost.
$85 down here in Australia, worse than Apple with their new cables.

Never borrow your gear, money or anything. No one take care of things like the owner. If the band needs an HD500 that much, they should buy one.

I picked up one off of Amazon which is a 3rd party one and works perfect and was about £20 cheaper

These are finished songs from my personal project last record:

Patch:
Line 6 CustomTone

It's the treadplate, but a one of my first usable patches. I have improved versions of this using the screamer and the midfocus EQ. I'll upload it when I finish one of my latest songs.

Hi all, anyone got a good Death Metal tone. More old school over new, Basswood RG with 85 in the bridge ad its direct as it is for recording purposes.

Any help would be appreciated.
