Getting Around, Tones & Tuner

4•3

If there are multiple rows or multiple pages of parameters in an Edit Page, you can use the

Up and Down buttons to get to them all.

Turn to tweak upper row settings. Turn to tweak lower row settings.

Press up/down to

select upper/lower

row for tweaking.

From any Edit page, you can also use the Left and Right buttons to step through the other

Edit Pages, in this order:

AMP > STOMP > MOD > DLY > VERB > GATE > COMP >EQ >WAH > VOL >

LOOP (POD X3 Live & POD X3 Pro only)

To return to the Home Page from an Edit Page, you can either press the Home button or

double-press the On/Off button.

By the way, you can also directly edit and turn blocks on or off using the POD X3 and POD

X3 Pro Keypad or POD X3 Live Footswitches. You know the drill—press to turn blocks

on or off, and double-press to tweak.

Many of these blocks can be conﬁgured to be Pre or Post, so their location in the Home

Page can visually change depending on how they’re assigned.

See Chapter 5 for details on every block’s Edit Page and the parameters available to

tweak.
