I found the Line 6 is good for heavy, straight ahead recording. It seems that building up in volume and feed back cannot be done with this pedal board unless you plug it into an amp and mic it. Players that use volume control and varied picking may have issues. It seems to defeat the direct recording that the POD was made for.

hi,

I'm wondering whether anyone knows of a program that allows me to shift the pitch of music / voice... example.. an artist wants to sing their song 1 note lower just so they dont struggle... then i can change the pitch

together with this... I'm also after a program that allows me to speed up tempo of songs without affecting the pitch...

I'm trying to basically y-cable my PODxtLive so I can record direct and mic my Atomic at the same time (same performance). This allows me to blend the channels as well as just using one track or the other. The problem is that there is no master volume on the Atomic so in setting the Pod volume to get a good/clear direct level the Atomic becomes WAY too loud.

Hi,

I've been recently recording a band who has 2 guitarists.
It's a home studio so we record the guitars through a LINE 6 POD 2.0 direct into an MBOX.

At the moment i've been recording each guitar part mono ( just with one cable ), and panning the one guitarist hard left and the other guitarist hard right.

Yet this sounds thin to me, in each speaker.

Ive tried installing some direct x plugins on my laptop. Im running XP with Sonar 4. I cant seem to find any way to access them in sonar.

Another prob Im having is with SIR reverb plugin . I can access it in Sonar but it doesnt change the effect when I mess with it.(no its not on bypass effect) The mix is set to 100 percetnt too.

I have been recording all my guitar tracks with a digitech GNX3 direct into a mono track with no mics involved. Do you record two tracks 1 D.I. and 1 direct. Is it better to reamp? Wouldnt that be more time? Also what equipment do you use to amp? Is anyone else using direct guitar recording?

I'm running Cubase SX 3 on PC with 2 (two) x MOTU 828mkII units. Direct monitoring been working great... until I added another 828mkII.

it's for studio use, for bass DI and also reamping some stuff

thanks

any suggestion? thanks

Well I have been toying with PTLE for a couple years now. I think I have come to the conclusion that bass and guitar sound better recorded direct. with stuff like the GT8 and Voice tonelabs and 24bit stereo tracks and sansamp its hard to screw up. Most you guys record direct, or Amps? If amps,then how many mics/tracks. Big amps or smaller ones?
