Ok so my question is simple, which one do YOU think is better Boss gt 10 or line 6 pod xt.
So far I've been playing with a pod xt but in a few hours the guy who owns it will come and get  it so I'll be with no multi effects Generally I'm like the L6 except for a few issues. 1) I don't feel comfortable playing heavy stuff with it even though it has great lead sounds I just cant find a nice heavy setting (and by that I mean in the style of Lamb of God, Symphony X, Pantera etc) 2) I don't really like the expression pedal 3) Gt 10 has many more features like loop, harmonizer better wah etc The thing is that I've never tested a gt 10 only what I've seen in youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCQ8f1gG610 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=upyDsGyceX8...feature=related |

I own the Boss GT-10 and it is awesome
I tested that and a few Line6 Models, but ended up on the GT-10 in the end. It was just better

QUOTE (kyldeee @ Aug 9 2008, 07:16 PM)  So you can use the Gt as recording gear also, like X3 Live or sum???? You can do the same things with the GT as the X3 or any other pods. I've always preferred the BOSS GT-boards, so boss gets my vote as well

Do not hesitate. |

For recording I would get the Pod, but for gigging the Boss would be better in my opinion

I'm for the POD X3 Live. I compared the two quite a bit (on paper) before getting the X3 before the GT-10 came out.
Editing looks pretty much the same except for that Boss got the tone wizard but I find the Line6 gear box to be like the real thing, visual and easy to understand. The things I hold high with the X3 is the dual tones. Way superior to anything I heard before, like playing to rigs at the same time, pan them L and R and you got such fullness. And the possibility to record vocals with useful effects and bass is great for someone looking for the complete soundinterface. And what's said about the Boss recording through USB, same goes for the POD X3. Also got a stereo effects loop like tha Boss (I think Boss has that). It's got XLR (for mic) input Balanced XLR outputs And it's got this small 1/8" input for an mp3 player (or computer) or similar for jamming along. Easy to access EQ knobs, Volume and Gain. Just what you'd find on an amp so it's easy to adjust the sound with these knobs. Just like on an amp. And if I never mentioned it, I've got the POD X3 Live and couldn't be happier. -------------------- My bands homepage
