Note that the GearBox interface includes different options depending on your specific Line 6 hardware. In this chapter, we’ll describe the GearBox interface with a TonePort UX2 connected - features are very similar for all TonePort, GuitarPort & PODxt units, and we’ve called out where things differ for each specific device type. If you are using a PODxt, PODxt Live & PODxt Pro device, please also be sure to check out the GearBox with PODxt section for additional, PODxt-specific GearBox controls.

Overview

The GearBox software is free for every owner of the Line 6 TonePort, GuitarPort, POD X3 and PODxt recording and modeling interfaces and is your new Tone Control Central! It gives you visual control, makes it easy to create, edit and save your Tones, includes plenty of great presets, and connects you directly to our exclusive online Tone Library of thousands of professionally programmed Tones. GearBox can run alongside your favorite recording software, letting you easily control every detail of your sound right from your computer during recording, and our additional GearBox - User Manuals documentation includes step-by-step instruction for using GearBox with some of the most popular Windows® and Mac® recording software to help make your computer recording experience a great one. GearBox even connects you to GuitarPort Online, our exclusive online world for guitarists who want to play along with the latest and greatest tracks, lessons and licks, covering the greatest guitarists of all time. Combine that with Line 6 Monkey, our world class driver software technology, Add-Ons such as Model Packs and the GearBox Plug-In to expand your Tone arsenal, and it all adds up to be the world’s most advanced tone system for guitarists. We call the whole shooting match The GearBox Platform.
