System Setup

2•5

•  The 

Auto

 option dynamically sets the input impedance to match the input 

impedance of the very first Amp or FX model in your POD HD signal chain.

•  Or, you can manually select from a variety of impedance values  from low to high 

(22k, 32k, 70k, 90k, 136k, 230k, 1M, or 3.5M). A lower value will typically result 

in some high frequency attenuation, lower gain and overall “softer” feel. A higher 

value provides full frequency response, higher gain and overall “tighter”  feel.

• 

Inputs Setup 

- Determines whether the other 3 options in this Inputs screen are 

applied per Preset, or globally.

• 

Preset 

- Recalling a preset will load the

 Input 1 Source

, 

Input 2 Source

 and 

Guitar 

In-Z

 parameter settings as last saved with the individual preset.

• 

Global 

- Once the “Global” option is selected here, the other three Input options’ 

values on this Setup page (Input Sources 1 and 2, and Guitar In-Z) are utilized 

globally, regardless of their values that are saved with each individual preset. The 

Input values you choose on this Setup page are then retained independently for 

the 

Inputs Setup - Global

 option. When you  change the 

Inputs Setup

 back to 

“Preset,” the Input options’ values saved with each individual preset are once 

again utilized. 

Note: Saving a preset while this option is set to “Global” will write the current global 
Inputs and Guitar In-Z values to the individual, saved preset.
