    Model Packs increase the number of Amp or FX Models of a GuitarPort, TonePort, PODxt, PODxt Live or PODxt Pro, for a wider variety of tone possibilities. When a particular tone in the library relies on a Model available in one of these packs, you'll see symbol(s) to indicate which Packs: MS (Metal Shop), CC (Classics Collection), FX (FX Junkie), and PP (Power Pack).

    The models within the FX Junkie Model Pack are already included in PODxt Live, and offered for purchase to add-on to GuitarPort, TonePort, PODxt and PODxt Pro.

    Variax is the uniquely flexibile guitar from Line 6. Our Vetta II amplifier includes a digital connection for the Variax that lets you store settings for both your amp and your guitar in the Vetta II so that when you call up a Vetta Channel Memory your amp and guitar can change sounds together. Vetta II Tones marked with this guitar symbol include this Variax data.

    For each tone in the library, you'll see an icon for either a single coil or humbucker pickup. This tells you whether the tone is best for use with a single coil pickup or a humbucker, so you can select the appropriate pickup on your guitar when using this tone.

    Attention POD 2.0, Flextone and HD147 owners... Your hardware doesn't do Stomp effects, so you'll hear something different than what was intended. Try increasing the Drive or choose a higher gain Amp Model to get the right sound. The other aspects of the sound should translate as expected, so you'll at least get a great starting place for tweaking.

    This is another way to use multiple instruments (or an instrument with multiple pickups) with your Helix. Here I got 3 instruments on 4 paths: path 1A (return 3) - internal mic for acoustic guitar path 1B (guitar input) - electric guitar path 2A (guitar input) - the same electric guitar path 2 (aux input) - bass. All the paths are pretty basic, except for the path 2B, as I got something unusual going on there - reverb followed by distortion. The reason for that is pretty simple though - I used Plateaux reverb for my my electric guitar in order to create a pad-like sound. But the result wasn't very satisfying as the sound was kind of washed out and it didn't cut well through the mix. So I decided to add some distortion to it and it worked. By the way, I'm using the toe switch in this preset to switch next snapshot. But don't forget to turn on Discard Changes in your global settings in order to try this feature.
