I might do that. Setting it up from USB, as I don't have the pod yet (next Tuesday I hope) I assume you can't just plug it into your pc via usb, you probably need some sort of instrument cable to USB converter? like a blue icicle? (just an example)

Hello, I am getting the pod hd500 soon, and would like to get everything ready to start using it off the bat. Had my guitars and amp stolen so I'm getting my stock back. Can you plug the Pod HD 500 or X's phones slot directly into a computers audio in jack? I've heard that powered connections into a pc slot is bad. I'm not sure on the specifics of this device. Also do you need special headphones, or just a jack converter? My plan if it allows is to buy an amp later, and just use the pod to plug into headphones / my PC.
