You should be able to dial in anything on that amp. I don't have a POD or Cyber twin, but I do have a J-Station.

When I want to get a sound, first I turn off all the effects and look for an amp setting that sounds close. I like to start with the highs, mids and lows set flat (all set to 50%) and the gain all the way down. Just look for something that sounds close and don't pay attention to the amp names.

Once you've found the amp you like, start tweeking your EQ a little. Once you have that you can bring up the gain a little and see what happens. You'll need to readjust the levels again.

Next add the effect that stands out the most (choris, detune, wah or whatever). Then go back and check the EQ again.

I like to add the delay next and save the reverb for last. Just remember to keep going back to tweek the EQ levels. After a while you will start to get a feel for what's needed. You'll know how much a choris, for example, will brighten your tone.

If you've never thought about adjusting your tone by tweeking the reverb you'd better get used to! The smallest little thing can have a profound effect on your sound.

One last thing, effects are like make-up. A little can be good, but too much and your a clown.

Hope that helps.
