down to zero, flip the switch to the amp position if you’re plugging into
an amp, or the line position if you’re plugging into line level equipment
such as a recorder or mixer, or using only headphones.
2. Connect the L
EFT
and R
IGHT
O
UTPUTS
to your recorder or mixer’s
inputs, or plug the left output into your guitar amp’s input. Or connect
headphones to the P
HONES
jack on your POD
XT
Live.
3. Connect the included power pack to your POD
XT
Live, and plug the
other end into a power jack.
4. Connect your guitar to POD

7. Press the O
UTPUT MODE/SYSTEM button. Press the button below
DEST (Destination), then turn the EFFECT TWEAK knob to tell your

when you plug in headphones, so you don’t have to do anything to get
great headphone sound.

Banks of 4 Channels, with Channels labeled A, B, C, D. Banks 1-8 are

own sounds, or ones you download from the Line 6 web site. With the
E
DIT button NOT lit, press the left button under the display for
“Manual Override,” where-the-knobs-are-is-how-it-sounds operation.
