POD/ Other Modellers & Atomic Reactors

Re: POD/ Other Modellers & Atomic Reactors

Maybe you just don't like the way Line 6 voices their stuff. I know I don't. I tried liking the various POD's I've played (and briefly owned), but my ears just don't jive with them. I much preffer the offerings by Korg (Vox included) and my fave junk comes from Boss and their COSM modeling.

Actually, Benjy I really like the tone of the XTL through the front end of the Rivera. Once I got it dialed in, and starting using the high input on my amp, it really "opened up". But, I wanted to try the Reactor for two reasons

1) despite the great tone of the models I use (JTM45,800,Soldano), I get weird octave like overtones with it on certain places on the fretboard. It gets annoying after awhile.

2) I would have thought the Reactor would work even better...in some ways it does...giving the tube feel under your fingers, and the increase in low end is great. I can't dial out the buzz/honk though.

Maybe the speaker needs to break in, I don't know.

If you prefer the sound of the Rivera, just use that. I'll give you a shiny quarter for your Atomic
