A Killer Gear Modeling Plug-in Plus an Interface!

The POD Studio GX is a powerful software and hardware recording solution that's designed with guitarists in mind. POD Studio GX includes a single-channel audio interface that's purpose-designed for recording a guitar or bass — and capable of recording at better-than-CD quality. You also get the POD Farm plug-in, which offers up a dream collection of classic and modern amplifiers, stompboxes, studio effects, and even vocal preamplifiers, so you can achieve virtually any sound imaginable with Line 6's POD Studio GX!

Line 6 POD Studio GX at a Glance:
  • Includes a USB audio interface for recording
  • POD Farm plug-in software with killer models and effects
  • Professional recording software included

Powerful and versatile 5-channel USB audio interface
At the heart of POD Studio GX is the interface, which features a front-panel instrument input for directly plugging in a guitar or bass or for plugging in a microphone with an adapter. There's also an 1/8" headphone output/line output available for conveniently monitoring while you're tracking.

POD Farm plug-in software with killer models and effects
In addition to the audio interface, you also get Line 6's enhanced POD Farm software, which can be used as an AU, RTAS, or VST plug-in within your favorite DAW. POD Farm software includes killer models of music history's most sought after pieces of gear — from amplifiers to stompboxes to studio effects and even vocal preamplifiers! There are 18 immortal guitar amps, 24 guitar cabinets, five bass amps, five bass cabinets, 29 stompboxes, and six microphone preamplifiers. You can set up your signal chain as easily as dragging and dropping and create everything from classic tones to mind-blowing original sounds. All of the gear offers up total tweakability — just like the original gear. The POD Studio GX also includes an FX Junkie model pack, which adds 35 more synths, filters, delays, and more to help you shape your sound!

Professional recording software included
Get your POD Studio GX system up and running and you're immediately ready to let the creative winds take you!

Best thing I have ever bought, every guitarist should have one

by Will from

A simple device to set up, comes with pod farm which is the coolest thing I have ever used. The price is very reasonable as it isn't that expensive. Best thing I've ever spent money on.

This box was the perfect solution - I have my A/D, and I can color the guitar or bass with the amp and efx modeling in the device. I haven't even had the need to add other modeling solutions.

One of the best purchases i've done, most definitely!
It's incredibly light, so you can carry it around with no problem, very easy to install (the free update of POD Farm 2 may take a little wh... read more [+]ile though, but nevertheless, piece of cake), it's simplicity is almost ridiculous: one big knob, one jack plug, one headphones plug and a usb plub. But the best part is, by far, the great sound it provides and one of the best software programs for guitar, POD Farm. Highly recomended if you want to make some good recordings without spending a lot of cash! close [-]

observations of a Pod Studeo GX newbie

I lost an old analog effects box and needed a replacement. A friend gave me my GX and upon hooking it all up, found the software mostly inaccessible to a screen reader. Being totally blind I depend ... read more [+]on a screen reader to use a computer. That said, I was still able to use enough of the software, mostly Gear Box, and the sound I got out of it just tickled me all over... This little guy really is as good as they say, and the tech support guy I talked to on the phone when I called in for keyboard help since I can't use a mouse was very helpful indeed.... so I and my guitars will be singing the praises of this little gem for as long as I have it! Good job Line6! close [-]
