Line 6 Amp Modeling

If you don't mind digital representations of analog amps, the Line 6 POD X3 is a near endless box of combination and experimentation. You ever want to blast a Dual Rectifier through a 1x8? Now you can (kind of). Bill Holland selects some of his favorite preset amp / cab / mic combos before switching things around.

My feeling was that the amp simulation and distortion is pretty bad, but I like a lot of the digital effects and delay effects. pretty cool.

POD X3

By: Anonymous Person

Don't mean to disrespect but those tones were horrible. With proper tweaking, the X3 can sound so much better than that! To each his own I guess...

POD X3 Live! One of the best pedals I have ever encountered!

By: Ste-Bo!

Hey

I had an great time with this pedal. Not only the fact that it has some GREAT amp models, but also because you don't have to bend down in order to change the effects!

Instead you can use software along with the USB on the X3 to change the effects easily using the mouse. This made things a lot easier for me as I am always trying to make the strangest effects I can think of whilst using my default recording program (Ableton Live 7).

I would strongly recommend this pedal for anyone gigging as it is very VERY reliable and can handle whatever you throw at it! It is also great for recording as it has low latency when recording into different programs.

I am currently selling this on eBay because I am trying to get a Macbook now.

So grab a bargain now while you can :)

Ste-Bo!
