Click on purchase and do what it tells you. First, you'll have to get the drivers for the XT set up in your computer. You've already got the FX expansion pack, you just need to get the Metal Pack and the Classic. I also recommend you download the editor from the line 6 site so you can tweak your tones on the computer. Makes things waaaaay easier.

this thing is super fuckin detailed, its kinda hard to figure out at first, even being a line 6 guy, and i pretty much mean its a little difficult to figure out the small details in the editing menu, its about as easy as they could make it though, i love this thing, probably about 30 min to get my first bank presets how i want them, and i was off, i love that bender stomp box they have

My advice is to read the manual a little bit tonight and mess around with it some more tomorrow. THere are TONS of things that you'll miss if you don't actually go through the manual and see it in there. Once you've got it figured out, it's super easy to come up with great sounds. And like I said before, download the tone editing software. It makes everything much easier, including moving tones around, programming new tones, and even just having a library of tones to go back to if you ever need them.
