Six Foot Revolver 03-23-2005 05:44 AM

I am about to go for a shower. Yourself?

ArcLite 03-23-2005 05:46 AM

Got about an hour of work left then it's guitar time.

munky_magik 03-23-2005 05:53 AM

I'm assuming that this guitar time will be in conjuction with your XT?

ArcLite 03-23-2005 05:54 AM

Without question. Never again will it be played without, for I love that thing to the death.

BoboTheRagingHobo 03-23-2005 06:32 AM

I need to get one of those POD's...

It hooks right into your amp as a pre amp/effects pedal right?

If so, that would be hell of a lot cheaper then buying a new amp right away...

Six Foot Revolver 03-23-2005 06:33 AM

i want a bass one :upset:

ArcLite 03-23-2005 06:34 AM

Well, the PODxt isn't a pedal, but the PODxt Live is. And yes, it plugs into your amp just like any other effects box. Then you can also run the USB cable to your comp for recording.

Yes, I know it's not a pedal heh, I was just using that as an example of asking if thats how it plugs in.

The PODxt live is the same thing though right? Just in pedal form?

ArcLite 03-23-2005 06:39 AM

I believe it has more features such as effects and amp models. And it's like $300 more than the regular XT.

BoboTheRagingHobo 03-23-2005 06:43 AM

[QUOTE=cjborton]I believe it has more features such as effects and amp models. And it's like $300 more than the regular XT.[/QUOTE]


Found it, only 200 dollars more.

Looks alot better for playing where you need to switch up stuff alot...and still cheaper then a new amp.

So it sounds great if you run it through a clean channel on the amp and use a distortion on the PODxt? Like I said, if that is really how it is, I will buy that over a new amp for now...because amps are so much more money heh. Also it would allow me to get my EMG's and a better tone out of my amp at the same time for fairly cheap.


Edit : The PODxt live is only 100 dollars cheaper...I was looking at the POD v2.

ArcLite 03-23-2005 06:47 AM

Yeah, my amp's channel is on clean, but a distorted tone from the POD will come out nice and distorted. The XT Live is better for gigging, but if you just play in your house or whatever I'd just get the regular XT.

Iced Earth is awesome, I bet that Watching Over Me live is insane.

Hey there Lord A. So, what's this deal with the pineapple juice, just a little trend you're stuck in? And good going with the Maiden deal.

Well for 100 dollars more, might as well get that. I don't want to fiddle with knobs and buttons and such if I want to switch to a clean during a song and back to a distorted tone even if I am just playing at my house.

Six Foot Revolver 03-23-2005 06:59 AM

See you guys later :wave:

Heh, I was wondering what happened to you.

Ramsey 03-23-2005 07:30 AM

Ah, hows the POD?

ArcLite 03-23-2005 07:30 AM

Get on MSN....I have some things for you:).

Nothing.

Need to figure out how to record because I am finished learning Laid To Rest, and also day dreaming about how cool it would be to have a POD and EMG's...

You need a POD. Ask CJ.

Now that my comp is finally upgraded, next on my list is EMG's and a POD now instead of an amp...

Ramsey 03-23-2005 07:42 AM

Yeah, i've also slashed amp off of my list as well. I was going to get one, but after I bought the POD, all I really needed were better computer speakers, because latley thats all I play out of .

ThrashMaster27 03-23-2005 07:44 AM

Just been watching Scanners. Anybody seen it? Great film! Especially where the guys head explodes and the ending scene with the face peeling and such.

Ramsey 03-23-2005 07:45 AM

CJ: I can't get on MSN, its not working for me


Just tell me here, or "Yousendit" whatever you have :D

Nice, perfect for me as well.

I just got a new Audigy 2 zs soundcard and new 5.1 system for my comp.

But 400 dollars is alot cheaper then say 1,000 - 1,500 dollars for a combo tube amp or half stack...

Well, you're technically getting about 30 tube amps with POD + if you get the model packs then you get another 150 Tube amps and effects. So really theres no need. And even if the POD doesn't sound "as" close, its pretty darn close imo. I mean, if you really strained then maybe you could tell its not tube otherwise no
