Anyone have experience recording or playing live with the Line 6 PodXT Pro (rack mount unit)? How's it sound, how easy is it to record with?

I think that is basically the same as the POD XT and has the same effects/preamps, etc.
I've recorded the last several sessions with just the POD XT directly to the board. I used is on a 10 song Demo session that I did for Jimmy Peppers (semi-retired Nashville songwriter and producer) and I used it on a new steel CD that I'm working on. I record both channels from the POD XT into two tracks on Sonar and then mix them left and right on the mixdowns. |

Hi John,
I've been using an original pod 2.0 for about 12 years both as a front end to my Webb and as a direct for recording. It works great in both instances.

Hi John,
Rick (Schmidt) turned me on to using the POD as a preamp when I wanna travel light. Sometimes I use it w/ a Nashville 400 with great results. I use the "preamp" model which gives me the effects & a nice clean EQ. I have also used it with my ProTools and gotten good results - tho I still prefer a direct out of my Stereo Steel to the POD - it is just too good! Nonetheless I agree with Rick that the POD is still a very useful option.
