What bassist doesn’t like effects? Bass PODxt Live’s got a bunch of great Stomp, Mod and Delay/Verb effects sounds adapted from Line 6’s DM4 Distortion Modeler, MM4 Modulation Modeler, and DL4 Delay Modeler pedals. And, there are some brand spankin’ new models that come straight from our flagship combo, Vetta II.

But what fun are a bunch of effects if you can’t wire them up in bizarre and unusual ways? Fortunately, with Bass POD® xt Live, you can. Its flexible routing lets you mix and match up to 6 marvelous effects simultaneously. When using an amp model, you can even choose to put some PRE, and some POST. Who says you can get too much of a good thing?


Here’s a simple effects setup where both the MOD and DELAY effects are running PRE:



But perhaps you'd prefer a studio-style routing, with the MOD effect PRE and the DELAY running POST.



This is what the full signal flow looks like inside Bass PODxt Live, including the pre and post options for Mod, Delay/Reverb and the Volume pedal:

But wait, that’s not all. Hold the footswitch for about 2 seconds and… bling, bling: instant digital chromatic tuner! Play a note and Bass PODxt Live will show you what it is - and whether it's in tune - on that handy display.
