Bass pod XT Live - normalize presets?

[Justice]

I just got a Bass Pod XT Live from a fellow TBer. First thing I did was a factory reset. Followed by hooking up a bass and going through all the presets.

The one thing that caught my attention was the huge disparity in output levels between the patches.

Is there a simple way to normalize the output levels on the XT Live? Or am i going to have to do a bunch of patch tweaking and button twisting?

No...lol you have to do the work. i guess you could put a limiter after it but that probably won't sound great.

Hate to say this but as much as I liked my Pod XT Live, this was one of the reasons I sold it. Trying to get the levels close to the same between patches was a pain for me. What I heard in the headphones when tweaking was nothing like playing through an amp, and playing through an amp at home was nothing like playing full volume with the band. And that was just volume levels...then I had to get the tones right to sound good in the mix which was another pain in itself.
