XT or XT live?

Ok so my dad agreed to pay half the price of a Pod XT live or a Pod XT, depending on what I get. So the thing is, Ive heard so many great things about the XT (both versions). But I dont know what is better with the more expensive Live-version. Everytime Ive tried the Live in a store I havent really understood how to change the amps or anything. So Ive only been able to use some of the shitty presets. But the normal XT seems easier to handle. anyway, just tell me! which one sould I get?!

If you're in a band I'd go for the XTLive, but if not get the XT. The XT would be a lot better for practical use (recording, practicing, etc.).

Newkie is a jewel in the rough
I would get the XT Live simply because I like it more and it's the only one of those two that I've tried for a longer time.

Or you could get the powerful ADA MP-1

Lycka till med ditt val iaf! :P

The XT Live dude. Built-in foot controller, wah/volume pedal, variax input, tuner access at your toes... It's what I chose.

The tones are identical, why not get one that doesn't require a seperate foot controller?

I do play in a band, though I practice a lot at home to (duh ). Right now Im using a shitty guitarport for recording.

Oh, and an u make ur own presets without a computer on the live? U probably can but I never understood how to change the amps or cabinets when I tried it.

It is very easy to get used to programming without the computer. I do 50/50. I like the ease of doing it on the computer, but on the fly on the floor works just as well.

I'd go for the XT Live myself. Floorboard is just cooler than that bean thingie. Besides, expression pedal and whatnot!

There identical in sound..also identical in tone to your "shitty" toneport too If your not going be recording with the pod at home. I would say get a boss gt-6 or gt-8.
