You really get the most out of your POD with a foot controller. Two different foot
controllers can be used: Line 6’s
Floor Board
and
FB4
.

POD
Using the Floor Board with POD lets you access many features that are not
available otherwise. This all-steel chassis, oh-so-stylish foot control wonder gives
you plenty of stuff: A volume pedal. A wah pedal with a Crybaby-style toe-down
on/off switch so you can kick the wah effect in and out. Stomp box-style on/off
control of your POD’s effects. Channel switching. Plus Tap Tempo and Tuner
control.
If you haven’t already discovered the back panel foldout, get set for a surprise. If
you have, go ahead and jump to the next paragraph. Still here? Alright – flip to
the inside back cover of this manual. Hmm, looks like the cover is all folded up.
Unfold it, and hey, presto! It’s your very own POD road map. The idea is to have
this handy pictorial reference always opened out while you’re breezing through
this manual and becoming an expert on all things POD. The boxed numbers
throughout the following text refer to the fold out illustration.
Getting Connected
So, how’s that Floor Board work, exactly? Well, the very first thing is to plug it
into your POD with the handy cable that came with your Floor Board. We
recommend you turn your POD off first, but you do whatever you feel like – it’s
your amp! Then, plug in your guitar, turn on your POD (scared you, didn’t we?)
and just press that Volume Pedal on the far right side of the Floor Board
all
the way forward so you can hear something.
