Line 6 POD Farm 1.01 – POD Farm Standalone Operation
5•2
then use POD Farm Plug-In on the DAW track to “non-destructively” make changes to your recorded
track’s Tone any time up until your final mix. Or, you can choose to feed the fully processed Tone from
POD Farm’s Standalone mode to the Record Sends, and record your POD Farm Tones exactly as you
hear them! Please see the Mixer View section for details on configuring the Record Sends.
Also, since ToneDirect™ handles all the monitoring completely through your Line 6 hardware rather
than through your DAW software, you won’t need to use your DAW’s “software monitoring” features.
This means you can keep the DAW software’s buffers at higher settings for greater stability and better
CPU performance! Please also see the ToneDirect™ Monitoring section in the Hardware Chapter.
