I see that the Pocket POD has a USB connection. However when reading the brief description of it it says the USB is for loading data into the POD. So I assume USB recording is not possible.

Can someone shred some light on this?

Hey Micke,

I was having a browse through the line 6 website to see if there was an answer to your question (something I wondered myself actually smile.gif)
I found this in a FAQ section

Q: Does Pocket POD pass audio over the USB cable?
A: Pocket POD is a class compliant USB MIDI device, but does not pass audio over USB. Pocket POD does come with a USB to USB Mini cable connection jack that will allow you to interface with Vyzex (Line 6's deep editing software), but it will not allow you to record over USB.

So the answers no mate sad.gif bit of a shame as I was thinking about one of these to leave permanently set up on the desk at home.

Thanks a bunch for looking it up! Too bad about the USB not taking audio.. I guess that would have been just a tad too good to be true.

Yep, although you can obviously still record with it if you have an audio interface ...

Yes, but I'm browsing for a friend who want a cost effective.. ok cheap.. way of recording.

Perhaps someone has a suggestion?
his priorities are;
- not quality first, but to record his ideas.
- has to have descent distortion
- if it's stand alone without a computer it's a plus (meaning stuff like Toneport is more or less ruled out)

We've been looking for means to connect the V-amp2 through a Lexicon Alpha sound interface but still that end up on about twice the budget.

In the long run perhaps a POD X3 would be the most cost effective, I bet it will last at least 10 years in forms of useability and modeling/effects quality.
