Line 6 Bass POD xt Live User Manual - MIDI Manuals

ScreamerFrom Stevie Ray Vaughan to Michael Landau, the simple Ibanez®Tubescreamer ® is the overdrive heard ’round the world. Thismedium-gain pedal was introduced in the early ’80s, and in manyblues circles, you’re not allowed to solo without one. Over theyears, Ibanez issued several variations of the venerableTubescreamer, ® but none have reached the fabled status of the TS-808. Of course, we obsessed over which of our vintage 808s tomodel, and in the end we think you’ll agree that our model of thisgreen jewel makes a precious addition to Bass PODXT Live.Stomp, Mod & Delay/Verb Models • Stomp ModelsClassic DistBorn and bred in the late ’70s, the ProCo Rat wasthe beginning of a new generation of distortionboxes. With a sound that was angrier and moreaggressive than a fuzz, the Rat put teeth into a newbreed of metal that was beginning to crawl to thesurface of the music scene.6 • 5Through its life span, the Rat has seen severalchanges, and the unanimous choices for tone are theoriginals pictured here. Inside, these two Rats use the same board, and their circuits areidentical. (For those that need to know, we modeled the smaller one.)The TONE knob on Bass PODXT Live’s Rat model functions like the original Rat’s“filter” control, which gives you brighter tone at lower settings, and darker tone athigher settings. Once bitten, you’ll know why we call this one tone with teeth!* All product names are trademarks of their respective owners, which are in no way associated oraffiliated with Line 6.
