POD Farm 1.01 – Model Gallery
One of the interesting things about the Bassman® is just how interactive the Middle and Treble controls are. The Middle control isn’t a bandpass, as in most tone control setups. Instead, it’s almost like a second treble control. The two are additive, so if you’re running your Middle knob higher than halfway up with this model, you’ll find that the Treble control might give you more bright than you really want. On the other hand, when you turn the Middle knob down, you’ll probably want to boost the Treble.
The Bassman®, like many of the amps modeled for POD Farm, didn’t have a master volume. So to get the kind of tone that the Bassman® can deliver at higher gain settings, you had to crank it up loud enough to do some serious damage to anyone who might be standing close by. Now you can get that kind of tone at a bedroom or studio level — or even through your headphones! Try
a Drive setting of about 4 or 5 — it’s guaranteed to dredge up the best R & B licks you know.
