How is Bass PODXT different from Bass POD?
In addition to brand new groundbreaking amp and cabinet models built from the award-winning modeling technology found in our flagship Vetta™ guitar amplifier, Bass POD® XT delivers 6 simultaneous effects that can be flexibly routed to meet your unique sonic needs. These effects include more classic models of filter, stompbox and studio effects as well as a dedicated compressor and a dedicated 6 band semi-parametric EQ. In addition, Bass PODXT offers USB support for Digital Audio In & Out, an intuitive screen display for deep patch editing, bi-amp output made with selectable crossover, and Flash memory that allows for easy upgrades so you can always incorporate the latest innovations from Line 6 as they become available.
