Line 6 POD Express Bass Pedal
How’d you like to take your entire bass rig with you wherever you go? With the Line 6 POD Express Bass Pedal in hand, you can do just that — in fact, it’s the company’s most portable Bass POD yet. The POD Express boasts seven amp models, seven cab simulations, and 17 effects based on cutting-edge HX-derived technology, along with a tuner, a noise gate, and even a looper. This unit’s simple control set makes dialing in thunderous bass guitar tones a straightforward affair; plus, since it can be powered by either batteries or an optional power supply, you can take it virtually anywhere. The POD Express flaunts tap tempo, stereo main outputs, and a stereo headphone output, and you get a built-in USB-C audio interface for effortless recording, monitoring, and re-amping. Finally, you can connect an optional expression pedal for real-time volume control or up to two external footswitches for preset selection and turning effects on and off. Over the years, the various iterations of Line 6’s Bass POD have broken new ground in terms of functionality, portability, and sound quality.
A bounty of HX-quality sounds
Lurking inside the POD Express Bass’s unassuming and decidedly un-kidney bean-like housing, you’ll find a cornucopia of sounds, all derived from Line 6’s award-winning HX family of processors. It all starts with seven amplifier and cabinet models: Vintage, Punch, Modern, Studio, Deep, Round, and Grit. Smooth out your bass lines with Optical LA Comp, Deluxe, and Limiter compression effects. Add character to every note you play with Octave, Growl, String, and Mutant synth effects. Light a fire under your tone with Boost, Overdrive, Distort, and Fuzz distortion effects. Infuse your playing with breathtaking Chorus, Flanger, and Phaser modulation effects, or give your sound extra dimension with a spellbinding Delay effect. The POD Express also includes tap tempo, a noise gate, and a full-featured looper.
Player-friendly features to spare
Bassists love how the Line 6 POD Express Bass culls so many features. For starters, you can power it with either three AA batteries or an optional 9-volt power supply, allowing you to take it anywhere with or without your pedalboard. Stereo main outputs and a stereo headphone output enable you to perform, record, or practice with pristine stereo sound. The POD Express’s built-in USB-C audio interface makes recording, monitoring, and re-amping child’s play. You also get the ability to connect an optional expression pedal for real-time volume control or up to two external footswitches for preset selection and turning effects on and off.
Killer tone doesn’t get any easier than this
Operating the POD Express Bass is as easy as can be. Its 5-knob interface includes Comp, Amp, Synth, Distortion, and Mod/Delay knobs that double as Gain, Mid, Channel Volume, Bass, and Treble knobs when you press the Alt button. You also get On and Tap footswitches. Finally, deploying the unit’s built-in tuner and saving patches are just as intuitive. The POD Express is truly the most straightforward POD Line 6 has ever designed — just plug in and play!
