The Dual Tone Concept
One of the most powerful features of POD X3, POD X3 Live and POD X3 Pro is Dual Tone
capability. What is Dual Tone, you ask? There are actually two (2) completely independent
Tone paths available in POD X3, POD X3 Live and POD X3 Pro! This allows you to:
Process two (2) completely independent Tones for two separate inputs at the same
time, such as your guitar plus a microphone. We like to refer to these as tone “Pairs”.
or
Use two (2) completely independent Tones on a single input. This is like running
through (2) amps at once! We call these tone “Blends”.
or
Set up one sound on Tone 1, and a different sound on Tone 2, and switch between
them instantly, with seamless transitions including delay and reverb trails. We like to
refer to this as “Alternating” tones.
There are essentially (3) steps to getting Dual Tone going on POD X3, POD X3 Live and
POD X3 Pro:
1. Assign inputs. To assign inputs to each Tone, press the Inputs button and select the
input or combination of inputs to feed Tone 1 and Tone 2. Full details are available
in Chapter 5.
2. Choose whether you want both Tones on at the same time, or just one Tone, by
holding the Tone 2 button (POD X3 & POD X3 Pro) or the Tone 2 footswitch
(POD X3 Live) for two seconds.
