I will not dwell on the CHARACTERISTICS of the machine ... everything said before t!

UTILIZATION

There are three levels of use:
The first is that to connect, turn the dial to select presets, custom settings and adjust the basic shape to finish the sound got. Mthode This is very simple but can cause dceptions at first because the number of adjustable paramtres forcment is limited.
The deuxime mthode rclame a minimum of patience and reading the manual to be effective: it goes through the edit mode and we have the total control of the functions of the machine.
It takes longer but is incomparable your exact ...
Finally, the edition more "visual" on pc is a mix of the two Previous: Fast and complements!
Line6 thank you!

SOUND QUALITY

RULES base.
If you possdez an ESP with 2 Emg active, do not shout because the AC30 preset sounds using trs, ditto if you plug a nail 150 with 3 single-coil, do not expect the Kirk Hammet in outlet baffles ... as a concept seems simple, but those who criticize this machine made the mistake of beginners.
This offers the pod xt is so vast that it is impossible not to achieve a more rsultat probant.Les mticuleux arrive excellence sound, especially on the crunch sounds with or without overdrive. Sounds "bright" are good but you still even use an effect or two to give the body all (eg lightweight chorus + delay). The choice of effects is also the wise and allows every whim.
The fuzz and distortion are large but the average accumulation of the Rat 2 is at the top (I possde true and I say without fear that the virtual provide without blushing) and the "copy" Tube screamer that Wah is doing its boulot.Les CryBaby are in the spirit and sound great the condition of a possder pdalier quip of expression pedals.
The delay and reverb are also of high quality. In contrast to the sounds really "metal", I think this case got, the best IOTC the worst ... Overall, you have to play the EQ to correct the distortions cot screaming, this lack of heat, but the nu-metal accommodates well for this type of sound ...

Deuxime RULES.
The pod xt is not destiny be in a combo amp branch: a still possible, but your exact same prvu really mdiocre. This device IS NOT A MULTI-EFFECT!
Nirvana sound is obtained directly in the sound or stereo amplifiers.
This is done to ...
Recording live-to-disk in the PC, it's magic!

Personally, for the rpt or play pub I transplanted into a system that StagePass500 Yamaha musicos with others and I am satisfied with the rsultat trs. For larger concerts, the-ing the branch console me and my chicken roll, guys bnissent me to come and play with a pod ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 1 year.
I play guitar for about 20 years, I play in two groups one of which is oriented pop / rock / variation on both jazz / funk. This is a pod xt bndiction for me who do not need gamberger about purchasing a particular gear to sound in Manir crdible rpt or caf-conc '. I finally have everything at hand and I now play without the complex pov 'dsargent musicos. I coupled my pod with pdalier Midimate Rocktron pedals + exp, and pass some time in "programming" but the game was well worth the effort. I finally sold my rack trs much less bulky and most versatile.
Moreover, every scratch a little srieux possdent one or the other versions of the pod to meet any request ... not a chance!
