Do you own a soundcard with a line input? Do you have any kind of recording software in your computer, for example; Qubase, Nuendo, Pro Tools, Logic, or Cool Edit?

Nope but I'm getting some freeware one.

Is a line input the plug with the picture of the mic on it? If so then yes.

ShawnF mentioned something about being able to use a PODxt live as a sound card.

Ok really? That would be new to me, but try to follow up that tip with him.
Yes, thats the one. Now you could plug your guitar to that input from your PODxt live´s output. You just use a regular tele cable. So far so good but now comes the little tricky part, you are going to experience the greatest recordingbandit - "latency". This will effect your playing but can be set to a pleasant amount depending on your soundcard. Do you know what I´m talking about? If not I will explain it to you man.

That's actually the mic input. You might have a seperate line in as well - if so, it might be prefferable, as the mic in will be hotter, but the line in will allow you to monitor through your sound card, and not the software you're recording through.

Either will work, though.

Thanks for the correction Drew, I messed up with the inputs..

Mattayus · 10-25-2007, 06:35 AM

The line-in is blue usually, mic is pink, and speakers are green.

I plug my podxt into my comp with a guitar cable. You need a big-to-small jack on one end though, whack the big end in ur Pods left or right line-out, and then the small end into ur computer's line-in.

Any one heard of the M-Audio USB Midisport Uno.. can i connect my korg pandora to this and access my sound card via usb.. in the hope of reducing latencies..
BTW i downloaded a programme called ASIO4ALL.. it did reduce my latencies significantly.. but my guitar still sounds 'abrasive'.. like a fork on a ceramic plate..

Edit: anyone try out sansamp xdi.. i think we can connect our guitar to the computer
