Controls & Connections

20S/PDIF Out – this jack sends out 24-bit digital versions of the Left & Right Outputs. The System setup page lets you choose the sample rate and adjust the level. See Chapter 6 for the scoop.

21USB 2.0 – POD X3’s USB 2.0 jack lets you connect directly to a USB 2.0-equipped computer, and take advantage of many computer-powered features:

•Line 6 Monkey software makes it easy to install software and get updates. Install driver software with Line 6 Monkey, and POD X3 provides 8 audio inputs to your

3•6	computer via USB:

•1-2 is the main signal, configured on POD X3’s Outputs page for Digital Outs.

•3-4 is Tone 1 separately in stereo.

•5-6 is Tone 2 separately in stereo.

•7 is the sum of the inputs you’ve chosen for Tone 1.

•8 is the sum of the inputs you’ve chosen for Tone 2.

You can also connect your headphones or powered speakers directly to POD X3 to hear your computer-generated audio, along with POD X3’s real-time processing. See Chapter 8 for more info on USB 2.0 recording.

22FBV Pedal – connect an optional foot controller here, including the FBV, FBV Shortboard, and FBV Express. The System page lets you set it all up. See Chapter 6 for details. Note that POD X3 does not work with the older Line 6 Floor Board or FBV2.

23Left & Right Outputs – these balanced, 1/4-inch TRS (tip/ring/sleeve) connectors are ready to rock with pro +4 dBu balanced equipment. They will also work happily with unbalanced –10 dBV equipment and standard guitar cables. If you need mono output, you can use either one.
