How do i use the podxt with my amp ive heard i shouldn´t use the input on my amp, but the senn/return loop, but whats should i connect to what?

if you use the effects loop which is better option for modulation effects from the pod (delay, choruds etc) you should plug your guitar directly to your amps input.Than from the "send" behind the amp connect to the input jack on the POD, from the output jack of the POD go back to amps "return" hole behind...And thats it you should be good to go..But I suggest using only effects from the pod not amp simulators ...

gREAT will try that it looks to work awesome

Hmmm seems to only work woth podxt live,, because the ordinary podxt doesn´t have a FX loops circuit

With ordinary pod if you're going to use modulating effects more, then going to loop is better. If not straight to amp.

You can also plug your guitar into the Pod, and then send the Pod into your amps effect return. Like this you are yousing the pod normally (all effects AND amp simulations), and your amp is only used as a power amp.
