Yes you can conect it to your computer and record if you have some tipe of recording software

I have owned one of these things for a year now. I use it alot in the studio but not so much live. It takes alot of pre-gig time to get the eq's set and volume levels for each patch adjusted to the placetaht you are gigging at. I upgraded to the metal junkie fx pack and the gain is just flat out nuts on some of the amp models. If youre thinking of buying this piece of gear and think it will make that fender 15 watt practice amp scream like a full up mesa triple or a marshall JTM..it wont. You do have to have a decent rig to start off with. Alot of amps "color" the tone throughtheir peramps. If you have a pure tone then the models come out much clearer. I tried it on a fender FM212 and it still sounded like a crappy fenser FM212. Even this awesome processor couldnt help out that amp. It does sound better through a quality tube amp. Check out the atomic 18 watter. That amp is purposely built for modeling gear. I use mine through a modded peavey classic 30 pushing a 4 x 12 cab of celestions. It does the job. --Trollhack... you still need an amp to power your speakers. This board does act as a pre-amp but you need to power that cab. Try pure class a power for the best results.

You reckon the pod xt live will sound good on a ibanez rg570dx and a marshall valvestate vs 100r

I'm using the XT live with a Jem 7V & i must say that the tone is just amazing...nothing to what i have played on in the past!!!
Also the GT -8 is far more complicated than the XT live....
Another advantage of the XT live is that u if ur too lazy to setup your own tone, there's a whole lotta tones out der on www.customtone.com for downloads which when tweaked sound almost like the original artists!!!
Also the XT live is fully upgradeable.....so you can have more amps, reverbs , wah's etc when line 6 releases them....
Wanna go in for more??? then go ahead & buy the model packs that best suit your need!!!
ROCK ON!!!

ihave a total line 6 rig a pod xt LIVE a variax and a spider. MY ONLY COMPLAINTS ARE U GOT TO PAY FOR THE EXTRA MODELPACKS WHICH SUCK. I WISH LINE 6 WOULD GIVE EM OUT FOR FREE. i have issues with the gear in terms of paying for model packs . they are too expensive and should be free

I bought the new PODX3 Live and all the model packs are included in it.

This is the best thing i've played and blows out the Boss GT-8 in my opinion. I'm sorry but i was never convinced by the GT-8 even after using it...

Ontop of that I also own the GT-8, Sure its a bit confusing at first but once you no how to work the thing you're in heaven.

Im never trusting line 6 again, its boss/roland all the way for me.
POSTED: 07/13/2008 04:55pm]]> Comments Sun, 13 Jul 2008 16:55:51 -0400 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/guitar_effects/line_6/podxt_live/index.html#u_43 I personally LOVE this unit. If you have used any of the other products the learning curve is short. I was able to remove all the presets and customize 5 of the 32 banks. As I go I will be able to have my entire set-list into this thing!!! I really can't wait!!

For those that say it's too digital.... Well with Firmware 3 I really do not hear it. But that is OK stick with you GT-6 - GT-10 this is a far superior product.

This thing may not make you play guitar better but it does sound SWEET!!

Can anyone tell me how many FX you can have at once? I currently have a ZOOM G7.1ut and can have about 5 or 6 i think but some more would be nice!
Thanks for the great reviews.

You get 1 amp pedal, 2 stomps and a delay. Believe you get 2 pedals and a delay pedal at best. If you want anymore you have to change the presets. I personally am not a fan of the Line 6 lines. I'm not gonna say the same thing as everyone else and say lol too digital but the sound isn't as controllable as some of the amps I've played. Rolling up and down the drive knob and all the eq settings doesn't produce as much of a drastic change as what you would see on most amps. I own a Mesa 5:50 express now with a TS-9 analog pedal. With a boss metal zone and the ts-9 I'm pretty confident I can get any tone I want under the sun. No point in the other 20-30 other pedals that comes with the lin6. Most of the effects are pretty useless anyway, you'll just end up using the same 5-6 effects and the other 14 you paid for will be largely wasted.

And those who say 'too digital', I can't say I agree with you. If you spend the time with it you can get it to do pretty much anything (tone wise, can't get it to make a coffee or walk the dog...obviously.) Anyway, I'd recommend it.
