Guys,
I'm seriously thinking about selling my pedalboard and going with the POD HD500x.
I mostly buy cheap pedals and am on a limited budget. I play in a cover band so the broad spectrum of amps etc. could be very usefull. I do have some questions regarding this unit.
- Can I use the headphone output while also using the normal or XLR outputs? Could be usefull as in ear monitoring to hear myself a lot better when I'm not standing in the sound beam of my own amp.
- Can I easy the unit with the effects loop of my amp (well i know you can, but is it any good, and can I use my own dirt pedals to drive the amp, and perhaps some mod pedal I have lying around in the fx loop, while still having being able to use dirt/boost pedals from the pod in the front of the amp, and all the mod effects in the loop?? Hope this questions makes sense to you).
- perhaps the hardest question. If you had either $ 500 to spend on pedals or the POD unit, what would be money well spend (for playing in a cover band)
as always thanks for the help guys!
