I have racked this amp modeler with a Matrix GT800FX to get a phenomenal live sound. In the emerging Philadelphia live music scene, I get approached after every gig by at least one person that says "DUDE!, your tone is awesome!". I initially downloaded a ton of great tones from the line6.com's custom tone section of their website. People have willingly given away amazing tones for any style of music that they have worked long and hard on. You still need to tweak them a bit and that is a hobby on it's own, but I am overall obsessed with this thing. I bought a 20ft USB cable that reaches to my computer from anywhere in the room so I can work on tones through the POD software. Recording direct has been extremely easy and I can save libraries of different tones to my computer for this device. Unless someone drops off a free Axe Fx at my house, I can't see myself moving on from this any time soon. Only negative thing is the constant updates from Line6 if you are connected to the internet. You will be eager to start recording but have to spend a good bit of time cooperating with the update process which can be challenging sometimes. ps- You can also rig this up to any cabinet head which I had to do for a while until I got the "Matrix" power amp. I once ran this POD through my band mates Marshall DSL100 tube head before and it sounded INSANE.
