S/PDIF digital outputs. This signal is also fed out the Record Sends digitally to your computer across
the USB 2.0 connection. When you are connected via USB to your computer, you can also launch
GearBox and use it to alternatively load Tones stored on your hard disc, edit them on your screen,
and make adjustments for output and Record Send levels. POD X3 is also capable of applying a Dual
Tone, such as independently applying different set of guitar amps, bass amps, mic preamps and effects
to whatever you are inputting into channel strips 1 & 2! Just go the POD X3’s Inputs screen to choose
what you want Tone 1 and Tone 2 applied to.
Mic Input Trim knob – You can use the little “Trim” knob at the top of the channel strip to adjust the
respective mic input signal level, just like you would on a traditional mixing console’s channel strip.
Note that you can also engage the Mic In Pad switch if the input is too high. The Signal Present and
Clip lights will help with setting your input level.
Mic Input Low Cut Filter and Pad Switches – Engage the Low Cut Filter for the Mic Input to cut off
all frequencies 75Hz and below - useful for eliminating rumble from mic sources. If you are plugging in
a Mic with a hot signal level, engage this pad to attenuate the channel strip’s Mic Input by -20dB.
Phantom Power Switch – Pushing in this button activates 48V Phantom Power for both Channel
Strip Mic Inputs. An LED will light when Phantom Power is activated.
Phones Output
Phones Output - If you want to listen to the audio using stereo headphones, then plug them into
this 1/4-inch stereo jack. This Phones jack outputs the same signal fed to the Analog Line Outs; the
audio from your audio software on the computer, as well as anything plugged into the Guitar, Mic,
Aux, Variax, digital or Line inputs. The volume is set by the Master Volume knob. Any time you use
headphones, it important to be sure the Master Volume knob is not set at a ridiculous level first!
