How’d you like to take your entire bass rig with you wherever you go? With the Line 6 POD Express Bass 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. Offering more of the same in an even more compact form factor is the POD Express Bass, which makes for a stellar musical companion.
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.
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!
