Re: POD X3 Live Wah

Your EQ settings and overall tone interact with the wah.

Try changing to the different wah models and you'll find it gets a very wide variety of sounds.

I don't know what you mean abou interact with the pedal.

Perhaps you have the autowah on (which is an envelope filter) and it has some settings you can use to tame it too. But it's not meant to work with the wah pedal necessarily.

Push the wah/volume/expression pedal down (all the way forward) and press the button to engage it. The "wah" LED will light up to indicate it's engaged.

From their just experiment with different wah models and you're sure to get a sound you like.

I really like the wah sounds on this pod more than any other. Pod X3 Live has some very usable wah sounds.

Re: POD X3 Live Wah

If you are getting drastically different volume levels when you engage the wah you might want to recalibrate the pedal. Also check the min and max settings for the volume pedal.

Perhaps I overlooked it in the user manual but how I do calibrate the pedal?

Re: POD X3 Live Wah

It's not in the manual - here's the snip from a FAQ document:

Q: How do I calibrate the Expression pedal on the POD X3 Live?

A: 1. Go to test mode by holding down 'Right' on the directional pad when you power up.
2. Highlight Pedal Cal.

     3. Press the INPUTS button.
     4. Set the pedal to the heel position.
     5. Press the A footswitch to get data on pwm duty cycles.
     6. Set the pedal to the toe position.
     7. Press the B footswitch to get data on pwm duty cycles.
     8. Press the C footswitch for automatic selection of the best duty cycle.
     9. Move the pedal to get smooth 0-255 Scaled Values.
   10. Press the D footswitch to save the settings.

Hope this helps!
