«  Millions of preset and combinations! »

Published on 09/03/11 at 11:49
78 guitar amp with 24 cabinet simulation!
28 bass amp with 22 cabinet simulation too!
98 stombox and studio effects! and 6 preamp vintage and modern!
Obviously it's digital, but all we saw for the price it's the possibility There's huge!
Opportunity to play with two completely different tone and is the best!
The best is the preset There's that and can download via the site of line 6!

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use a piece of cake!
The manual is very clear he explains everything in detail and there's even a tutorial ^ ^
Editing sounds there's nothing more simple it really is on top!
We have millions of possible sound with this processor is its modeling and that is great!

SOUND QUALITY

Ah, so here we are,

I use it with a neutral amp, a keyboard amp is great! it's a Roland KC 350 and I recommend anyone who has a pure spineless pod x3

- Effects such as chorus, phaser, flanger, delay, reverb are just huge! and hyper realistic for such distortion and other effects,
The noise gate is super efficient it really surprised me!
A slight disappointment on the side of wah wah and the whammy effect, I think it's a weak point of the POD X3 live ..

The compressor (which also makes booster) is great! same with the equalizer set is known as one would ...


- The simulation of guitar amplifier and cabinet are really quite good and quite realistic,
I play mainly metal and the best simulation for me I think it is: Line 6 Insane, CJM Marshall, Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, Engl Fireball, and other high gain amp that I do not remember the name. .
Firm level is pretty cool and it will be the difference between each.

- The simulation of bass amp and cabinet are not bad but lacks a bit of momentum and heat I think ..
This prevents the simulation ampeg, fender, mesa boogie or 400 + is sublime!
When we increase the drive limits it seems that the sound comes from a tube amp but without the power ..

OVERALL OPINION

In short, I hear people say that the sound is digital, too synthetic ..
Soon to be widely supported but it is!
It is on that if you really want a marshall sound, a mesa or an ampeg it is better to buy one .. But imagine how much it would cost if we buy all our favorite amp of this POD, counting all the effects that a loved one is in my opinion almost all close to 100 000 euro and still ^ ^

I use it for a year now, what I like is the possiblilité + we have a single pedal and the millions of possibilities, I also like being able to download more presets on the site Line 6!

Great value for money!

I recommend the POD X3 for those who do not know yet afford a big amp or effects ..
POD X3 me to a bunch of ignorant thing sounds great and now I know how to find my way!

I would do so this choice for the guitar!

As for the cons I would not be low as + to go to Tech 21 SansAmp because there the sound is realistic that + it is identical (but of course it's another budget ^ ^)
