  1. Today I brought my JBL Speakers out of the closet and hooked them up to my POD X3. Tried listening to a CD but unfortunately it does not sound right. The sound is very weak, like it's missing power or something. I can't see anything wrong. The ASIO POD X3 Driver is selected, to me everything looks like it is set correct, but it sounds pretty pale. I may have to abandon this idea.
  2. Forgot to ask and just to be sure, I plug my speakers into the back of the POD where it says 1/4 line inputs correct? And how do I set that switch that says Output Level Line or Amp? Thanks.
  3. Thank You So Much. I will give it a try.
  4. I put my desktop computer in the closet for awhile because I wanted to buy a notebook and enjoy a smaller footprint and a more compact setup. Only problem is I cannot plug in my real nice JBL Speakers into my notebook. My JBL speakers use quarter inch phono plugs. But I do have a POD X3 Pro. So I was wondering if there is a way I can plug the cables coming out of my JBL's into the back of my POD X3 Pro, and be able to enjoy those fantastic sounding speakers. I have never done this. All I know is I would be using my X3 as my sound card and obviously my POD would have to be on for me to use my desktop speakers. What do you think?
  5. I was wondering if I picked up noise gate stomp box and ran it in the effects loop of my POD X3 Pro if that would significantly tame the loud hum the pickup gives off? I'm already using the built-in noise gate but I'm afraid if I turn the threshold too much higher I will lose tone.
  6. I got sound finally, although I'm not thrilled will the EQ. I'm currently using the EQ in iTunes to inject some life in the sound. Is there any way I can use the equalizer in the X3 to enhance the sound coming out of the speakers?
  7. Not using my iPod. iTunes is installed and I'm playing that on my laptop. My X3 Pro is hooked up to my laptop with a USB cable.
  8. My speakers are JBLs with quarter-inch phono jacks so they should match the jacks on the POD perfect. So far, I hear no sound. I got the patch cables (guitar cables) I think they are balanced cables going from the Line Outs on the POD to the inputs of my speakers, and I got the switch set to Line. Maybe I gotta set the Outputs correctly on the front LCD screen or something.
  9. Okay I hope I can find the correct jacks on the back.
  10. I just acquired a laptop and I was wondering if I could hook up my powered speakers to the back of the X3 so I can listen to my iTunes music thru my nice powered JBLs? I certainly don't want to hurt any components that's why I ask.
  11. I've got a Duncan Pickup Booster that I'm using in the effects loop on the back of my X3 Pro. I have a great sounding hot-rodded Plexi going now. I'm not sure I have the cords coming from the input and output of the pedal plugged into the correct jacks on the back of the X3. I currently have a cord running from the stompbox input to the X3 FX Send Left Mono. And the second cord is running from the stompbox output to the X3 FX Return Right. Is this correct?
  12. I have a Seymour Duncan Pickup Booster Pedal which I would like to plug my guitar into first and then run that into the guitar input of my POD X3. I just wanted to ask if this is safe, I don't want to fry an input due to a too strong signal coming into it. I wouldn't be boosting it all that much anyway. Safe to do?
  13. I have a dual tone setup which is not what I want. All I want is Tone 1 which is Yngwie Lead. Problem is there is a Tone 2 along with it called Yngwie Malmsteen which I'd like to blank out. How do I remove Tone 2 and just keep Tone 1?
  14. Okay. I'm gonna go back to the X3 Pro anyway. Thanks.
  15. Okay so I bought a used POD XT Pro off Ebay. Works fine. I registered it with my Line 6 account. Someone on the Reaper forum told me I am entitled to POD Farm to use as a VST plug-in with my DAW. I can't get either POD Farm 1 nor POD Farm 2 to work. With POD Farm 1 it says no recognized devices found (and my device is on). With POD Farm 2 it says it's not authorized, yet I've ran the license manager several times. What do I gotta do?
  16. But I don't really care for the way they set up the recording level. The only way to adjust recording level is to raise or lower the channel volume. You gotta crank the channel volume to at least seven and then to compensate for the blaring headphone volume you gotta lower the master.
  17. I watched a YouTube video where a guy was explaining how you can reamp using the POD XT Pro and Reaper. He went into Control Panel and called up Line 6 Control Panel and MIDI or something and in that box it showed the reamping options. I don't see such a dialog box on my machine. I'm using Windows 7.
  18. I doing some recording into Reaper and when I arm a track the level is not high enough. How do I increase the recording level going into Reaper? I don't want to raise the POD channel volume because then that will raise the volume of my guitar in my headphones and I like the headphone level where it's at right now.
  19. Sometimes I've seen for example the Equalizer at the very end of the chain, other times most usually I've seen it appear much earlier in the signal chain. Almost leads me to believe you can somehow change the order of the effects in the XT Pro signal chain. Can anyone shed some light on this?
