byakk0 Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Tried searching first but didn't find anything. What software do I need to just record with? I'm not worried about programming the Pocket Pod, the presets are fine for now. I just want to play and record on my PC, if even all it is is just an MP3 or other sound file format. The simpler the software the better. Using windows 10 64 bit. And, if needed, Pocket pod, shows 2002/95/EC on the back Thanks in advance.

daveny5 Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 There are many, but if you're looking for something easy and cheap, try Audacity. https://www.audacityteam.org/ After you get the hang of it, a more fully functional studio recording package is Cakewalk by Bandlab. Here's a link: Cakewalk by BandLab | BandLab Products. This is also free, but is much more full featured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Personally I would avoid Audacity. It has a history of not playing well with Line 6 devices due to its default pseudo-ASIO driver called ASIO4ALL. I use (among others) Cakewalk by Bandlab as suggested above.

byakk0 Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 Cool, Thanks. I've got Cakewalk started but now it's asking me for Audio setup, and input is greyed out. I've got the Pocket pod turned on and plugged in (via USB). Does the pocket pod require installation of some sort? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveny5 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 You need to have the PocketPod connected to USB on your computer Does the PocketPod show up in your Windows Device Manager under Sound devices? In Cakewalk, press P for Preferences and it should be listed under Devices - Input and Output drivers. Also check Driver Settings and it should be selected as the Playback and Record Timing Masters. Playback and Recording should have ASIO set as the Driver mode. You might have to set the Driver mode first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
