POD Farm 2 Advanced User Guide – Using Your Line 6 Hardware

PODxt Family Devices

If you own a PODxt, PODxt Live or PODxt Pro, then you can also reap the DAW benets with the

purchase of the POD Farm 2 Plug-In Add-On license! To get POD Farm 2 Plug-In, just connect PODxt

to your computer and run Line 6 Monkey, where you can purchase, download and install everything

you need without even leaving your chair. Read more in the Line 6 Monkey section on page 1•2, or just

head on over to the Line 6 Online Store.

POD Farm 2 does not function in standalone operation with PODxt family devices. Since all processing is

done on your PODxt hardware itself, you can call up your PODxt tones and adjust settings on the device

itself, and use the Line 6 audio driver settings to feed whatever signal you want out the Record Sends for

use with your DAW software!

You can also utilize PODxt as a high performance sound card for your Mac

or Windows

computer,

allowing you to record all those groovy POD Tones, or even dry input signals, directly into your DAW.

To control the Monitor level and type of signal fed to the PODxt Record Send 1-2 (Processed, Semi-

Processed, Dry), launch the Line 6 Audio-MIDI Devices dialog on your computer. For details on all

the audio driver settings and options, please check out “PODxt”.

Note: Be sure to always power off or mute your speakers or monitoring setup before connecting/

disconnecting the USB cable and powering on/off PODxt, as well as before booting up or shutting down

your computer if PODxt is already connected. The best practice is to always power on your speakers last,

and power them off ﬁrst when connected to other audio gear to avoid a “pop”.
