Line 6 PODXT Spotlight

(Line 6 | Posted 2006-08-11)

POD® XT Live is an uncomplicated, gig-ready tone machine that’s portable and adaptable to different real world stage and recording environments. PODXT Live can be used as the ultimate multi-effects pedal in front of any guitar amp, as a complete direct PA solution, or as the world-standard guitar recording workhorse in the studio. At the center of PODXT Live is an incredible gathering of almost 100 must-have stompbox and studio effects models. This handpicked collection of hits from our award-winning PODXT, stompbox modelers and Vetta™ II will give you rich and deliciously detailed tones at the touch of a footswitch. Effects can be positioned in front (stompbox-style) and behind (studio-post) the Amp and Cab models, giving you organic and dynamic tones normally available in only the most high-end guitar stage rigs.

Line 6 PODXT Live Pedal The Line 6 PODXT Live Pedal is the PODXT in foot controller form. With its rugged steel construction, 11-channel select and effect on/off footswitches, and a built-in wah/volume/tweak pedal, PODXT Live puts the power of the POD at your feet for onstage use. Included are 84 pro-quality stompbox and studio effects, 36 amp models, plus 24 cab, and 4 mic models all built from the award-winning technology found in the Vetta II amp and storable to 128 programmable channels. Unlike the other members of the POD family, PODXT Live also features a Variax digital input so you can call up a fully customized guitar, amp, or effects setup all by stepping on a single footswitch! USB digital I/O combined with Line 6 Edit software allows computer-based tone editing and direct digital recording.

Reviews of the Line 6 PODXT

This is your best bang for the buck in the amp modeling game. This will plug into any amplifier, will connect direct to mixing board for recording, or will plug straight into the PA for playing live. I have done all three with flawless results. No matter what style of playing, or what type of guitar you plug into it you will be amazed at what it will do right of the box!! - Jeff

If you have trouble finding that perfect tone you're looking for either at practice, recording, or even live (you can buy the footswitch that Line 6 also makes), and you don't want to spend thousands, this is the answer to all of your problems. - Sean Moore
