It is compatilble with the X3 Pro.  Not all the switches on the FBV longboard work with the POD X3 Pro because those switches are Vetta specific (e.g., Favorite Channel).  But, nearly everything on the FBV is functional with the POD X3 Pro.

It works, get the FBV with the POD X3 Pro and it will all work fine.

no less than 5 switches are completly unusefull with a pod X3 pro and a fbv !!!

1) stomp box 2

2) stomp box 3

3) modulation

4) amp 2

5) favorite channel

this is telling a lot about "linking" together those both LINE6 products....

it's only because line 6 think that folks, pro or not, will not be able to assing theirself the switches/expr.pedals to any parameters they like...

Take a quick look on a 15 years old GSP 2101 ( "digitech" stereo in/out rack effect with allso two channels of differents effects avable ), even if the sound is not as good as a PODX3 pro, i don't talk about sound here :

- there is no restrictions at all about the compatibility with any midi foot controlers, you can assign all and any parameters you whant, to any switch/expr.pedal you need !!!

all this section is entirely programmable (easyly).

as an example, "i whant my expression pedal to increase the gain of an amp simulation assigned to the left/A channel and decrease the volume of the delay assigned to the right/B channel at the same time" :

impossible with the "most even best guitar effect of the world", but easy whith a 15 years old guitar effect. let me laugh a bit...

my conclusion :

the relyabylity of the 2 expressions pedal and swiches to any parameter you'd like same time or not is only a dream, in fact,

only two things are pushing the PodX3 pro and FVB in a "pro" category :

- the price and the sound of existing effects.

i use it on stage for the sound, but i am very desappointed whith foot controls, this big board under my eyes on the floor don't give me what i need in one single tap, like "swiching on/off two effects of differents channels at same time".

changing this point of the firmware program of the x3 pro could easily resolv it, (should i do that myself ?).

Ps :

regarding the effects :  no "looping sound delay" emulation (head rush, rc 20, jam man or equivalent), in the podx3 pro...

not so pro...

have a nice day,

Surely this is just a firmware update?

The amp buttons should work for the two tones and the stomps should work for the gate and compressor like they did on the XT pro. Hopefully they will get this sorted soon. Its kind of annoying.
