    Model Packs increase the number of Amp or FX Models of a GuitarPort, TonePort, PODxt, PODxt Live or PODxt Pro, for a wider variety of tone possibilities. When a particular tone in the library relies on a Model available in one of these packs, you'll see symbol(s) to indicate which Packs: MS (Metal Shop), CC (Classics Collection), FX (FX Junkie), and PP (Power Pack).

    The models within the FX Junkie Model Pack are already included in PODxt Live, and offered for purchase to add-on to GuitarPort, TonePort, PODxt and PODxt Pro.

    Variax is the uniquely flexibile guitar from Line 6. Our Vetta II amplifier includes a digital connection for the Variax that lets you store settings for both your amp and your guitar in the Vetta II so that when you call up a Vetta Channel Memory your amp and guitar can change sounds together. Vetta II Tones marked with this guitar symbol include this Variax data.

    For each tone in the library, you'll see an icon for either a single coil or humbucker pickup. This tells you whether the tone is best for use with a single coil pickup or a humbucker, so you can select the appropriate pickup on your guitar when using this tone.

    Attention POD 2.0, Flextone and HD147 owners... Your hardware doesn't do Stomp effects, so you'll hear something different than what was intended. Try increasing the Drive or choose a higher gain Amp Model to get the right sound. The other aspects of the sound should translate as expected, so you'll at least get a great starting place for tweaking.

    The Hedgehog Drive (Ibanez/Maxon SD9) as the real pedal, has a weird "magic setting" (there are some reviews on that pedal pointing the same) otherwise it becomes uber fizzy. |Level has to be at the top: 10 | Tone has to be at minimum, 1-2_ish (find sweet spot) | Gain to taste (particularly on how cranked is your amp, lower that gain). Once again, I'm using a Minotaur to "tame it". Minotaur works well on not coloring by not having almost any gain (max 0.2-0,3). Put if before a drive pedal, and you boost the gain, put it after and you can control the level keeping the personality of the Drive. Turn it off if it's getting into the middle, "the Level 10 on the Hedgehog is the essence". Try to match it with a Marhsall_esque amp. On a clean channel a bit cranked, is the choice to go. On singles, it can provide a nice phat tone, try on the bridge pickup with tone rolled down. SD9 is somewhat a TS9 but it keeps the bass and has more growl. Added a slight delay, a whammy up to perfect 5th interval, and a momentary pitch shift, can't remember the interval now, you'll recognize it. No clean "channel" here. Give it a try, it is weird how having it in less than 10 makes a difference, *or is it just me*?
