So in preparation for my AX8 (expected Monday) to replace my HD500x, I ordered a nice pair of studio monitors. I've been retweaking my patches in the Pod to get used to my new room arrangement and work flow, while also doing some serious music appreciation - I've never had anything that resembles a nice pair of studio monitors and the sound and enjoyment is incredible. It truly is like I've heard these albums for the first time again.
I've been curious about the FM effect, so I would play some patches with the Pod master volume set relatively low and then play them at gig volume, and then slightly higher than gig volume. The highs as the volume increased became piercing! However, I didn't seem to notice that same effect whenever I would go through an album. I could listen to an album at low or high volume and it was pleasing across all sound levels. What gives? Is it more noticeable on the Pod just because I'm only working on one instrument as opposed to hearing the whole context of an album?
