UTILIZATION

Very simple, much simpler than the pod or the pod pro, since the screen is much larger and clearer.

SOUND QUALITY

I think it is important to clarify one thing before you judge the sound quality of such apareil: a pod is made to record guitar tracks, or the limit to play through headphones without disturbing the neighbors. There is no point in plugging a pod of an amp trying to get closer to the simulated amps, it's not made for that, and the result is generally disappointing.

For those who have tried to make the sound of an amp with a (of) micro (s), and want to find a way of recording, it is clear that the pod is a revolution, and the Pod XT goes even much further. In general there are a wide variety of grains from one model to another on the XT. Sounds gross (no effect) really seem more realistic and more malleable. Overall, the sounds are much easier to mix because they are less draft, finer and more dynamic.

The models of pedals are a great source of additional opportunities, and quality of sound is also the appointment.

The sound output via USB works impeccably well, and that's more ennorme! Especially for those who only records of the guitar: it avoids having to buy a very good sound card. With a pod XT and a laptop you have all your recording studio at hand ...

I have all the space I need at home, and the equipment to record amps, but frankly I do not see how I made to do better than with a pod!

When the effects, they are really impressive, but I do not see the interest to record a track with the reverb or delay?? But it's nice to settle its sound with minimal background.

OVERALL OPINION

I do not see what you can ask for?? Having said that's what I told myself after buying a pod pro 2 years ago and a half ;-)
