I just got the pod hd500 yesterday. What I used to do was plug the guitar directly into the mic-in on my laptop and use vsts like amplitube, and asio4all for the driver. I could then enable monitoring on the track in the DAW and hear what I was doing through my pc speakers or a usb headset.

Is there any way to do this with the pod? I was wanting to use the usb headset instead of buying a new one. I can do live monitoring via my stereo and other speakers by using the headphone out on the pod, but late at night, I really need to be able to use headphones. I checked the driver options in the DAW and the line6 driver disables every other driver, so it's the only one I can use.

I also had the idea of running the usb from the pod into a first pc for recording, then running from the headphone out on the pod to the mic-in on a second pc, then using a daw with asio4all to monitor that, but I couldn't get a signal into pc2 for some reason, even tho it worked with guitar direct into mic-in on that second pc as well.
