Have a closer look at the Line 6 POD Farm 2 over at the Line 6 site. Slow Blues in A (70 bpm) using a Hagstrom Swede.
#Pod farm amp models software#
Have a listen - would you think the guitar and bass were recorded with software modeling? I will post more examples in the future of how nice sounds can be had from POD Farm 2, including high gain stuff of course! Both the electric bass and the electric guitar were recorded with POD Farm 2. I want to share with you this backing track I created with POD Farm 2. You can even add post-cabinet mic preamps! Both chains can then be controlled by the virtual A/B/Y box. You can do this in any order, before or after your amp and cab models. You can create a very big sound by placing (up to) 10 effects models per chain. You can arrange any thing you choose the same way, whether it's an amp model, effect, preamp, or whatever.Īnother cool feature is the ability to split your guitar signal and create two separate and simultaneous amp and effect signal chains. Want the distortion before the phaser? Just drag and drop to rearrange, and the changes are instant. It's so simple to rearrange the routing of the signal. You can easily pick amp models and effects by dragging and dropping them into the signal flow to find the sound you want. The POD Farm 2 interface has a carousel-style gear browser that puts every model at the front of the user interface. The Vox AC30 is another model I find myself using often, because it sounds so realistic (and I can't afford a real AC30.). Lots of fun can be had here! I really like the Marshall amp models. I personally have POD Farm 2 Platinum, which provides a comprehensive collection of more than 250 models. There are plenty of vintage and modern amps, cabs, studio-standard effects, classic stompboxes and colorful preamps. So overall, you get an arsenal of historic amps and effects, for both bass and guitar. The only problem is it is so much fun to keep trying new guitar tones, that it becomes hard to decide!

I can never complain about not getting the right sound anymore, since the tonal options with Pod Farm 2 are endless. This feature of recording once and changing sounds later is a life/time saver for me. The amount to which you can customize and combine all these things is mind blowing. As long as you played your guitar track as you want it to be played, you can sit and experiment with amp models, effect models, cabinets, etc. Instant changes, and I don't have to re-record the track! I just love this feature. I just go into the Pod Farm 2 plugin in my recording software and try something else, perhaps a Fender Deluxe Reverb. I might record a rhythm guitar with an AC30 amp model, but then later when I listen back to the finished track, I don't like how that guitar tone sounds in the mix. One really cool thing I want to mention right away is that you can record your guitar track with a certain model, and then later change it to something else. So what can POD Farm 2 do then? Well, I don't know where to start. Instead of buying dozens of boutique amps, you have all these sounds and a lot more in POD Farm 2. Well, I would say they are wrong! The sound quality from POD Farm 2 is in my opinion stunning, if you think about how cheap this stuff is. Perhaps they think a realistic and good guitar tone can't be had this way. Perhaps some people are thinking that modeling technology and software for creating guitar tones is a bad thing. It's like it's too good to be true, or something. When I tell them I used Line 6 POD Farm 2, they have trouble believing it.
#Pod farm amp models pro#
I have asked many pro musicians for feedback on clips I have recorded with Pod Farm 2, and guess what? Most of them ask me what amp I was using, since the guitars sound so good. The reason is because it is EXTREMELY flexible and simple to use, and it sounds VERY GOOD. For all my backing tracks and lesson recordings - I only use Pod Farm 2.
#Pod farm amp models upgrade#
Now, the big news is that Line 6 has recently released POD Farm 2 - a very nice upgrade to original software package. All you need is a Line 6 audio interface, such as the POD Studio, and the Pod Farm software. There is, however, an easier way to get good guitar tone. I have messed around quite a bit with micing my amps the last few years, and it's been very educational but also quite frustrating, to be honest. Getting a good recorded guitar tone can be difficult.
