Low quality of recorded Audio

I am using a POD studio GX. Generally I run POD Farm 2.0 standalone applications, and try to record the audio using another software.

I tried the following software: Audacity, riffworks T4, Adobe Audition 3.0 and Ableton Live lite, But none of them was able to capture the same exact sound that I was hearing in my headphones. I am unable to figure why this happens. The tones generated by POD Farm are usually very good, but once I record them, they turn into a low quality "pixelated" sound. almost as if the sounds were put together from a midi instrument library, rather than recorded. Is there something that I am missing ? please help me figure this problem out!!

      I set up the tone I want using POD Farm Standalone software. Open the recording software, and record. riffworks and audacity are really simple examples, I just hit record and start playing. Let me take this chance to clarify the problem, The recording sounds OK, but it's not what I am hearing through the headphones. If i try to record a piece that includes a bunch of hammer-ons/pull-offs, or a solo , the individual notes sound very digitized, and not very pleasant. Any strumming also has this digitized pixelated sound to it , but not as bad.

    RE: Low quality of recorded Audio

    Hi,

       

      What is the bit depth and sample rate of the recording software you are using?

       

      Also, Check the bit depth and sample rate of the interface in Line 6 Audio MIDI Devices.

       

      Start>Programs>Line6>Line6 Audio MIDI Devices

       

      Bit depth should be at least: 16bit

      Sample rate should be at least: 44.1

       

      Also, Make sure you are updated to the latest drivers for the pod studio GX:

      Thanks,
