CALABASAS, Calif.—OCTOBER 16, 2012—Line 6 announced today that the free v2.1 firmware update for POD® HD500, POD HD Pro and POD HD are available immediately for download at line6.com. This firmware update provides five new HD amps—bringing the total HD amp count to 30—as well as revolutionary performance options.
The v2.1 update features three stunning new HD amps based on* the distinctive clean, crunch and overdrive tones of the Soldano® SLO100, one of the most coveted premium amps of the modern era. Two custom-designed originals, Line 6 Doom and Line 6 Epic, round out the POD family’s selection of high-gain amps.**
POD HD500 and POD HD Pro now integrate with StageSource™ loudspeakers in revolutionary ways. Musicians can instantly recall StageSource Smart Speaker modes via POD HD presets, making StageSource and POD HD500 or HD Pro the ultimate integrated FRFR (Full Range Flat Response) guitar system.
Musicians can switch from a full-range acoustic sound for the verse of a song to a dialed-in 2 x 12” guitar cabinet for the chorus, with just the press of a footswitch. They can also change to Keyboard mode for dramatic guitar synth soundscapes. At low volumes and high decibel levels, the flat frequency response means guitar tones will sound the same during performance as they did in the studio. Users can also connect multiple StageSource speakers via L6 LINK™ to facilitate wet/dry or wet/dry/wet setups, and more.
