Ins and Outs

Whether you’re practicing the songs you’ve written, recording an album, or playing live on stage, Floor POD® Plus has all the ins and outs you need to shine in any situation.  Just plug in front of any guitar amp and crank it up, or plug directly into the board to instantly access that famous POD® direct tone.

MIDI In & Out - Connect Floor POD Plus to your MIDI equipment to select Channel Memories (via Program Change messages), automate settings (via Continuous Controller messages) and back up your tones (via SysEx). All the details are online at line6.com/manuals, in the downloadable MIDI Reference document.

Phones - When it’s time to monitor while recording or to make sure you aren’t going to keep the neighbors up all night, plug in the headphones here.

Output To Amp/Line - The unbalanced 1/4-inch connectors get the sound from your Floor POD Plus to a guitar amplifier, recorder, mixer or PA system. Flick the rear panel switch to AMP when you’re feeding into the front of a guitar amp, or choose LINE to send you signal to a mixer or PA. The rear panel LEVEL knob sets the - you guessed it! – Your master output level. Changing the OUTPUT level does not change your tone, so you can get the tone you want at any volume level.

Aux Input - Connect a CD player, MP3 player, drum machine, virtual accordion, or other device here, and you’ll hear it at the Floor POD Plus headphone and Left and Right outputs. Very handy for jamming along!

Input– Hey- Your guitar goes here.

Amazing Sound with Minimal Setup Time

When you bring Floor POD® Plus to your gig, you have all of your signature sounds ready to go with no hassles.  Plug in front of any guitar amp or use the direct outs to go to the mixing board, either way you’re gonna sound great.  Why?  Because they are your sounds without compromise.

MXR Phase 90 Effects Pedal

MXR Phase 90 Effects Pedal Review



MXR Phase 90 Effects Pedal Feature

  • Foot accessible speed control knob
  • LED on/off indicator
  • Powered by the Dunlop ECB-03 AC Adapter and/or 9 volt battery.
  • Dimensions: 4-1/4" x 2-1/4" x 1-1/4"
  • Weight: 0.9 lbs.
The MXR Phase 90 delivers the classic four-stage phasing sound with continuously variable speed control. The Phase 90 has a fixed regeneration level that adds intensity and sounds great on guitars and keyboards. Uses batteries or ECB03 power supply. The MXR Phase 90 has found its way into many of Eddie Van Halen's recordings, adding a shimmery velocity to lead passages or a more dramatic swoosh to muted strumming. This phaser is not just designed for guitars; it works well with bass, keyboards and even vocals and appears in all of these guises on Dweezil Zappa's Z album, 'Music For Pets', which hints it is flexible and hip.

Ashdown DUAL-BAND-COMP Bass Compression Effect Pedal

Ashdown DUAL-BAND-COMP Bass Compression Effect Pedal Review



Ashdown DUAL-BAND-COMP Bass Compression Effect Pedal Feature

  • Ashdown's Dual Band Compressor splits the signal into high and low frequency bands
  • Applies compression separately to both signals
  • The pedal is housed in a durable metal case and features an input level control with a trademark Ashdown VU meter to allow optimum signal matching from any instrument
Designed to meet the specific needs of the modern bass player, Ashdown’s Dual Band Compressor splits the signal into high and low frequency bands and applies compression separately to both – fast attack and decay for the high frequency and slow attack and decay for the low frequency or fundamental waveform of the note. The amount of compression applied to each is independently variable and the balance between the high and low frequency components of the signal is also controllable as they are re-combined into a single, full range output. The pedal is housed in a durable metal case and features an input level control with a trademark Ashdown VU meter to allow optimum signal matching from any instrument – active or passive. The pedal also features an output level control – essential for obtaining the perfect balance between the effect and the true bypass mode.
