I've tried my Line6 X3 Live infront of an clean Peavey classic 30 and also in the loop. To be honest, it didn't do a good job there no matter the settings I use. The best result was running it infront of the amp with amp modeling on. That way it overtook my Peavey's character and sounded descent. So flooding the amp with amp modeling and some effects was the way. The classic with a sound resembling an ENGL at gain was kind of fun. But only adding a few effects used as a multieffect in the loop or before the amp sucked the tone out of the tube amp. A Classic 30 is a teriffic sounding amp, with the line6 in the signal chain it sounded mediocre. Unless flooded as I said. With headphones and recording into a computer it sounds great! I couldn't wish for more. I only use it as a sound interface because that's what it does best. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I had an xt live which wasnt good for going through an amp, i know people will gasp at this but to me it just totally interfered with the character of the amp and i would get all sorts of strange hybrid sounds. I think line 6 gear excels when played on its own with tone ports or into pa systems even, but coupled with a decent amp like the blackstar it just ruins the sound entirely in my opinion ofc!
