Hi,
I traded my Tech 21-Amp for a POD and I never played anything better sounding with my guitar.
But I have problems to find a decent sound for my steel. I remember some months ago a forumite wrote that he had contacted a tech from Line 6 and mailed him his desired sound. He got the settings from that tech and offered to mail it to everybody that would also like to have it.
Now I can't find this topic through the "search"-page so maybe the one that I'm talking of could contact me? I really would appreciate it.
If someone else came up with some good ideas I'd be delighted to read them!
All the best
Martin

Martin - I'm far from an expert - but I'm enjoying the POD for all sorts of things. With my lap steel, I'm using the amp sim that comes with the companion CD ROM called "Jazz Clean" (see appendix A in the manual). The physical knob settings on my POD are amp model:POD Clean, Effects:Bypass, up on bass and mid, down on treble, no Drive, reverb up 40% of the way; and I sent the Jazz Clean amp sim from my iMac computer to one of the POD's user settings (7A just to pick a lucky number). I think there must be some steel playing POD pilots out there who are working on the answers. My suggestion is offered with maximal humility. I'm also using a Korg Kaoss Pad between the POD and the amp or recorder - the POD and Pad are great friends. - Bob |

Martin: Pod patches (libraries which can be used to load patches from a computer into the POD) - 400 free downloads - including alot of Fender amp simulations - I just downloaded them, and it will take a while to see which might be adaptable to steel guitar - here's the site and good luck: http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Studio/2786/POD.html
