falsettobells Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I am thinking of getting an multi effects pedal.I want to play muse songs but i can't afford to get the digitech whammy and fuzz factory so i'm going for the multi unit.I liked the pod hd300.Now i wana ask that does the pod hd300 has harmonizer like digitech whammy and can it go up to +7 and -7 octaves like the digitech whammy? Also does anyone has tried to get the map of problematique effect with it? and it also has fuzz has any one compared it with the fuzz factory? lastly i have a line 6 spider 4 15w amp and it has effects so people say that the pod hd 300 won't work with a amp which has effects but some say that if u hold the tap button while u start the amp then it goes into a clean state without any hindrance of the effects and it can be used with the hd 300.I wana ask the spider 4 15w users have they tried it with hd300 and how does it sound through the amp?

Don'tPostThePear Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 go up to +7 and -7 octaves like the digitech whammy? i think only the limited Whammy: Bats and Whales edition can do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 i think only the limited Whammy: Bats and Whales edition can do that. Heh Yeah, the harmonizer has a range from -1 to +1. I can't really help, but as long as you have your amp set clean, I can't see there being a problem with using the HD with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seaking Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 i think only the limited Whammy: Bats and Whales edition can do that. Can Human beings even hear that high and low? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomrulez Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 That will be half steps not octaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falsettobells Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 so pod will be able to achieve it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboMansonMB-1 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 12 half steps = 1 octave I think Zooropa has the HD500 and he seems to like it pretty well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My M13 can do Whammy, so I don't see why the HD300 wouldn't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zooropa1310 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 If you can afford it, I'd get the hd 500. It is 200 (or less) more, it is endlessly better. Well worth it, it can do any tone imaginable. For Muse, I use two amp models at once. The Marshall 45 watt (forgot the exact name) at about 70% mix, with a Mesa rectifier at about 30% mix. Fat, lots of crunch, a kick of high gain, and very articulate. I'll try and record some clips! Hd series is amazing. Whammy is fully functional, you be able to do it all.

zooropa1310 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 As far as motp, I have no idea. Unless an outside sequencer is used, of it even can be, I'd say no. Though I haven't tried. Your amp should be alright. The best sound comes from the dt50 head or combo. But you're looking at $1,200 for the head itself... They work with eachother as an integrated setup. For the most part though, youll do just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know a lot about midi sequencing, but the whammy is a single effect. I imagine it can get difficult trying to program a sequencer to one effect in a multi effects processor. Or it could be easy, or not even doable. I really don't have the slightest clue. The amp will do fine though! Just got off a graveyard shift, I work in 9 hours. If I find time, I'll record that clip today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i would really appreciate if you make that video clip.Try to include the newborn and invincible whammy solo.I have been unable to find any video on the hd500's fuzz.So if its possible try to include blackout too check this out he uses whammy with cubase to control the pitch shifts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_man361 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 the motp effect will be easy enough to get with the pod hd series if it has a midi (or midi over usb) input. this is something i did a few years ago with the pod xt, i figure it has a similar control via midi. again, this was using cubase.

Phill Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I sold most of my gear at the start off the year. All my pedals apart for a delay and tuner, my 2x12 cab, some parts off my guitars. All I have left is 2 guitars I built, my combo, the delay and tuner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I have left is 2 guitars I built, my combo, the delay and tuner. yeah sounds pretty workable. think the problem im having is that my rig is waaay too big for my flat and it takes a lot of time to get it all connected.. a decent combo like the epi valve junior with my me-50 would be pretty much right for me at the moment, except id be lacking a decent speaker sim for quiet play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
