Part 1 of the demonstration on using the Line6 POD X3-Live with an amplifier. Download X3-Live patches from my website. glenndelaune.com/patch%20downl...
How cool is it that your video is still here 14 yrs later? I'm getting an X3 to work with my analog pedals and amps. Thanks for all your time to record this.
Greetings Glenn, Your videos and open sources to all of your Line X3 Live settings has been very inspiring to a beginner user of this pedal. I want to say thank you and I really appreciate your great work. For a user from Taiwan, your videos are undoubtedly life saver and awesome learning materials. Thank you.
Glenn...you are THE MAN! I'm not even a guitarist, and your videos have been a great help to me as a recording engineer. A wealth of information. Keep it up bro!
Glen, thanks for doin' these vids for the X3 live. I've been struggling along w/ an XT live for 3+ years and have had a new x3 live sitting in the basement untouched for about a year. Finally, some help getting this thing sounding decent. Thx again.
Hey Glenn, thanks for the video. Really helped starting out using the X3 Live. Oh...and the background music was inconsequential to my success! LOL Thanks again, Mark
Thank you Extremevideopro for making this!, I've had some issues getting good tones, and i'm definately dialing these tones in tomorrow. Now I'll watch the second part :) Hope you make more of these videos in the future. Cheers!
Ha! Another super useful video for this pedal! Thanks again! Damn you are seriously an incredible player, nice to see such a smooth style using a thumb pick sir! ;)
Thanks a lot for this video, brother. I'm picking one of these up soon and this cleared a ton of questions. I'll be sure to refer to you if/when I have questions about it.
Thanks for the video! This finally got me heading in the right direction with my X3 Live. I was beginning to think maybe I wasn't smart enough to program and use it. :-)
Nice one, this is REALLY good. One question i have though is what settings do you use on the big silver dials on the X3L? Seems to make quite a bit of difference to the tone changing these.
Hi Glenn, Nice demos you've posted here on you tube, I'm impressed with this unit & considering of purchasing this unit, My question is,,, does this unit come with harmonizing effects? Thanks again & keep up the excellent demos.
Hey Glenn, thx very much for that help in using the x3...btw sounds and that song (pt2) are very nice! Can you please tell me, which thumbpick u are using and where to get it? Its really hard to find good ones, and i don´t know your´s...I need to play with them on e-guitar and your´s looks interesting to me - thx!
I just purchased a Line 6 x3 live and I have to say that so far I prefer the V-amp pro for sounds.Having said that i havent had the X3 for more than two days yet so I will try to program the X3 with some really good sounds so stay tuned.I will post on you tube the two different modelers so everyone can hear the difference.
hi Randy . Hold the "home" button for two seconds, then highlight "reset user presets" navigating with the 4-way arrow key. Press save, then hold the save button for five seconds and release. Be aware that this will replace ALL user presets back to factory settings, so please back up your custom presets using Gearbox or Monkey if you want to save them for future use.
You've dialed in some nice tones, I think I'm gonna have to send my v-amp pro out to pasture and pick this up. Have you experimented with a stereo poweramp setup with the X3 live?
@extremevideopro Thanks! I am checking it out! I am trying to decide between the X3 Live or Bean version for my home recording and the lack of level control on the bean for input/output scares me! -thanks!
hey glenn first of all i just wanna say your an amazing guitar player and inspire me and a bunch of other people im sure. but i gotta ask a simple question. im playing thru the effects return on a b-52 tube amp. would u reccomend the boss gt-10 or the pod x3. for live shows, practice. etc. thanks
Great Stuff! Does that small display on the X3 Live seem to be difficult to know what bank/patch your on. Seems like when you're standing up and the pedal is on the floor, seeing what bank/patch on would be nearly impossible. GREAT VIDS! THANK YOU!!!
@extremevideopro Thanks bro. My guitar's and basses are all medium output passive pickups with the exceptioon of the stock ceramic pickups in my 1994 CE22 which has a 19K bridge pickup. Doesn't feel as hot as it sounds though!
awesome tone and play dude!!! one question tho.......have u ever used the custom 22/24 (ten top is an option) and if u did wat would be the difference?
this has to be one of the most epic effect boards ive ever used, mate lent me his for a gig i had lastnight, the clean sound though was far to trebly for my liking even when i had the guitar on the rhythm pick up with more bass then treble still did sound quite trebly :S but the lead and metal tones you can get on this is truly 1 word to describe, Orgasmic. didnt want to stop playing the tone was just soo amazing xD
Glen, That PRS is gorgeous. Do you ever put any of your tones on L6 Custom Tone? I have a XTL that is still a blank canvas. I know it holds different tonal processing properties than the X3L but would love to get some of your tones or at least try to come close. Any ideas for a XTL? Thanks.
Hi glenn. I checked out all your great video. And I has been very helpful. Just a quick question. When I run pod x3 to an amp, I just Connect the direct out to the input of the amp. Just want to know what setting I should have for my amp in the first place. Do I turn the volume of my amp up and use the pod as the main volume or the other way around? Thanks!
The 4-cable method goes like this if i recall: Cable 1: Guitar into effect's guitar-in Cable 2: Effect's loop-out into amp's guitar-in Cable 3: Amp's loop-out into effect's loop-in Cable 4: Effect's out into amp's loop-in What this does is to put the amp's pre-amp circuit (colouration and overdrive) into the effect's loop. At the same time, put the remaining effects behind this loop (on the effects train) in the amp's loop (which sits before the post-amp, but after the pre-amp). There u go
another question Glenn, stupid of me not to ask this before, but what chords / chord progression are you playing on the clean part? cuz I really like it ! :-) -Luc
Awesome. Thanks for the quick reply! One last question, if i put it into my amp, do i just turn the amp on default clean and then use the guitar for various distortions, effects etc?
Hello there, very good video...I just want to ask about the overall quality if you record a track on the pc...I mean if you use the USB and just connect it to the pc and record with Cubase/Audition, the sound is very good or is just a pale version of what you actually play? I need to record lots of heavy riffs ( Tool like ), so I need that the distorted sound is not just a mess when recorded...what you can tell me about that?
I was about to take a pee when I heard the opening clean tone.. wow! What's that progression? I know it's simple but still hoping you can post a chord:D please thanks! Great upload and tips by the way.
hey man sweet videos and playing, i had a couple questions, i rented the PODxt live for a week and liked it and had fun with download able patches and the pedal sounds way more real and tube like than my Boss me-20. I was wondering the differences between this and the GT-10 were and the differences between the xt live and the x3 live (other than prices :) , thanks in advance, Taylor
Glenn, have you ever worked with Zoom's g9.2tt processor? I've test driven boss gt-10, all of line 6, tc nova system, and zoom. And, the zoom really connected with me the best.
do you use the 'combo' setting in the output menu (when using the 1/4'' outputs obviously) or do you use the 'match/ direct' setting.... when plugged straight into the amp? Thanks ;)
So what kinda settings do you suggest on the actual amp? did you,before making this video change the output setting from Match studio direct to Combo Amp?
Thanks for the quick response. I don't have a manual so I'm not sure how to set Tone 2 for guitar. Can you explain or do you have a video that goes over these basic settings? Thanks for your time.
@extremevideopro I tell people that all the time...I view them as another form of EQ...hence I find the right cab sim will work through any cabinet...regardless of speakers. I just pick the right cab sim for my cab, etc. :)
Regarding your signal chain, what are your settings on your Crate amplifier (Main amp input). I personally also use the clear channel of my combo, setting it to a "neutral position", as recommended by line6 : Treble&Bass to the maximum, and the Mid to the minimum. Do you have any tip ?
Hey, Glenn. I have a quick question. If you have four different sounds in the A, B, C, and D channels, do you need to have them on the same bank #? (in your case #26)
thanks man...1 more question....is it possible to read the parameters of ur created x3 live patches tht i downloaded frm ur website? i mean through some x3 live editor or somethin?
If you press the Home Button a second time, it shows the Patch Number over the whole display instead of the FX-Chain, which you really can't see, if you are standing; so you know what tone you're at :D
2 questions-how did you set EQ on your amp? its hard to see the knobs. did you set it neutral B=0 M=10 T=0 or other settings. And..on 1st screen you have "match studio direct". did you really use this or switch to the "combo" setting for the 1/4 outs? if using combo setting where do you typical set the focus and EQ controls? Thanks for your help Glenn. Having a lot of trouble getting good sound with my 5150 stack
You seem to get some really nice tone with the pod and i have been trying for ages to get a slash guns n roses type sound and just cant do it, do you have any tips?
Hello extremevideopro nice sound!!! i'm thinking of buying a line 6 pod x3 live but i'm wondering if the pedal works fine only with a power amp marshall el 30 50/50 or if i also need to buy a pre amp. Greetings.
hey man its very apreciable....m a guitarist i play basicaly progresive metal as well as clean and some sounds those are not like the traditional guitars do in studios and live ....i am confused in choosing the GT10 or POd X3 LIVE which du u prefer tone wise and dinamic wise??i saw GT10 has lots of features and sounds than PODx3 ...so which one do u prefer??? please reply
You can use the Pod X3-Live as a preamp right? So, you can plug it straight to a cabinet? (by cabinet I mean a single guitar speaker, I'm not sure that is the correct term, sorry)
Hi sir, today I bought your X3 live Patches. As shown in line6 UA-cam channel it’s simple select drag and drop the preset on any bank using gear box. I have done all the pre work regarding drivers and firmware upgradation everything is up to date. My question is for tone 2 what do I need to do after I put all the patches in tone 1 in order?
hey, quick question, why do you have a condenser mic infront of your amp, that you record with cubase? Im aware of that the line 6 has a USB, then you can simply plug into your cpu.
thanks i might just have to get a peavey windsor then to run the POD x3 through cause it has a good clean sound and it is a tube amp. do you think that would be a smart buy?
@extremevideopro It is, man, I think there's a problem with eiher the amp or the guitar, because I took the X3 Live to Guitar Center to see if there was a problem with it, and in one of their amps, using one of their guitars it sounded really great, but here in my amp and my guitar it doesn't sound good, but I don't see what could be the problem, because when I play just using the amp and the guitar, withouth the pedal it sounds good
ok one stupid question.. This pedalboard is just the control switch for the red POD thing or it has all this on it (so you don;t need the red POD)? The reason i ask is cause i'm really intrested on that model and a friend in the past got confused and bought just the control of the red POD and then he had to buy the red POD too..
is there already existing effects on the POD X3 Live, or do I have to create my own effects? I'm pretty simple with what i want and just want to start playing, but i do want all the pitch shifters, delay, and other special effects too instead of buying multiple pedals.
Hi Glenn, I I have hooked up my pod x3 live straight to my KRK Rokit 8 monitors and have tried a few different connections but fail in the tone department as far as getting a good quality sound close to the headphones sound, How do you setup your x3 to your monitors and do you find it sounding the same as you headphone sound?. I have tried hooking to the monitors from the phones out and it sounds the best but don't know if that's good for the unit or monitors. How do you hook your monitors?.
It is possible to control with the wha/volume pedal the pitch shifter? I saw that this effect is available, but I haven't see anyone dealing with that, so is possible to use it like Tom Morello/raga against the machine-style? Another quick question: is possible to use the octave to emulate lower tones, like 7strings giutar? I saw that the zoomG9.2tt has this function, do you know if is possible to do that with the X3? Thanks!
I just bought one of these. I noticed you turned AMP and CAB off to get it to sound good thru your amp. I'm going to be playing thru a PA and using an amp for on stage monitor (amp not miked). Wouldn't I need AMP and CAB for the PA?
when you use this on stage, do you tell the guy on the mixing console to keep every parameter on the mixer corresponding to your guitar at 12o clock position? plz reply
What kind of delay is there when playing live, and switching from the clean tone, to the gain tone? Say I were playing "One" by Metallica. Going from the verse into the chorus, will it be seemless when switching from my clean to heavy ?
Glenn, I just purchased a used (but in very good condition) PodX3. When I follow your settings it sounds identical until I attempt to set up Tone 2 there is no sound at all. Any thoughts on what I may be doing wrong? Thanks
I have a fender FM212DSP and I was just wondering if it would work fine with this kind of multi-effects amp or even a fender 'blues junior' which I also have but hesitate using any pedals and effects with it because it just sounds great as is. Comment, criticize please!! Thanks!
This video exemplifies why I sold my Vetta 2- Too much tweaking to get the perfect tone. In the time it took to watch the tweaks in this video, I learned two new songs and had a sandwich. After you own a line 6 product for a year or more, I'll guarantee you'll get tired of trying to tame it, like not being able to dial out the excessive picking noise or the high end fizz on the high gain patches.
@blksolo Sound like it can't be cabled correctly? I could be wrong though I'm sure i've had this problem before on a completely different unit. Anyway. I want that PRS,i'm coming to get it!
@bbtucci I have a Spider III 75 watts and I don't know how to make it sound good with my new pod x3 live, Do you think it is a good combination the pod with that kind of amp, isn't it better to buy another kind of amp or is it possible to get a really good sound wth that amp?
How cool is it that your video is still here 14 yrs later? I'm getting an X3 to work with my analog pedals and amps. Thanks for all your time to record this.
Thank you

Really love your crunch and overdrive tone!!!
Thanks man, really cleared it up for me. I had so many questions about this thing and you pretty much just answered them all at once.
...your vids are incredible...yesterday I have bought podx3live and with your help , I'm just ready to play with my band!! Thanks man.
Hey Glenn, thanks for the video. Really helped starting out using the X3 Live.
Oh...and the background music was inconsequential to my success! LOL
Thanks again,
Mark
Thank you Extremevideopro for making this!, I've had some issues getting good tones, and i'm definately dialing these tones in tomorrow. Now I'll watch the second part :) Hope you make more of these videos in the future. Cheers!

awesome thank you so much. hope you come to the Pittsburgh PA area sometime. Would be great to see ya live!!!
hey man i have just bought this amazing pedalboard, and your videos are really helpful!Thx for sharing them! The SVR cover is amazing;)
Good shit man, nice tone on those patches!
Thanks for the video! This finally got me heading in the right direction with my X3 Live. I was beginning to think maybe I wasn't smart enough to program and use it. :-)
you're a dude i love you, these tones are great !
oh, by the way, I spoke to Line 6 today regarding issues with the X3 bugs, and I told them to look you up on UA-cam. And, that your videos were fab!!!
Thnx a lot!!! I'm going to get this pedal soon!!!
Nice one, this is REALLY good. One question i have though is what settings do you use on the big silver dials on the X3L? Seems to make quite a bit of difference to the tone changing these.
Hi Glenn,
Nice demos you've posted here on you tube, I'm impressed with this unit & considering of purchasing this unit, My question is,,, does this unit come with harmonizing effects?
Thanks again & keep up the excellent demos.
You're welcome. Thank you for watching
Hey Glenn, thx very much for that help in using the x3...btw sounds and that song (pt2) are very nice!
Can you please tell me, which thumbpick u are using and where to get it?
Its really hard to find good ones, and i don´t know your´s...I need to play with them on e-guitar and your´s looks interesting to me - thx!
Wow, you're the first guy I've seen shredding with thumb :D
It was awesome!
i love that the clean tone is modulated to hell and back... great guitar and even better demo though!
thank you i bought it and i did play it at the store and it is a good pedal. thanks for the advice...
I just purchased a Line 6 x3 live and I have to say that so far I prefer the V-amp pro for sounds.Having said that i havent had the X3 for more than two days yet so I will try to program the X3 with some really good sounds so stay tuned.I will post on you tube the two different modelers so everyone can hear the difference.
hi Randy . Hold the "home" button for two seconds, then highlight "reset user presets" navigating with the 4-way arrow key. Press save, then hold the save button for five seconds and release. Be aware that this will replace ALL user presets back to factory settings, so please back up your custom presets using Gearbox or Monkey if you want to save them for future use.
Removing the cabinet simulation is a huge trick since the old POD 2.
You've dialed in some nice tones, I think I'm gonna have to send my v-amp pro out to pasture and pick this up. Have you experimented with a stereo poweramp setup with the X3 live?
great video!
@extremevideopro Thanks! I am checking it out! I am trying to decide between the X3 Live or Bean version for my home recording and the lack of level control on the bean for input/output scares me! -thanks!

I sure appreciate this video! Thank you for posting this. I wish you would post how to save the patches a little more in depth and how to assign them!
@extremevideopro hey Glen, does the X3 Live have the looping effect?
Glen, That PRS is gorgeous. Do you ever put any of your tones on L6 Custom Tone? I have a XTL that is still a blank canvas. I know it holds different tonal processing properties than the X3L but would love to get some of your tones or at least try to come close. Any ideas for a XTL? Thanks.
@extremevideopro Yes it is, it is set on a clean chanell with no treble, no bass, no mid, etc
Yes my EQ on the amp is neutral and the output mode is Match/Studio Direct
Hi glenn. I checked out all your great video. And I has been very helpful. Just a quick question. When I run pod x3 to an amp, I just Connect the direct out to the input of the amp.

The 4-cable method goes like this if i recall:

Cable 2: Effect's loop-out into amp's guitar-in

Hi Glenn,
Great video. I have a 96 hot rod deluxe and want to use these settings with my strat and tele. What amplifier settings do you recommend?
hey man sweet videos and playing, i had a couple questions, i rented the PODxt live for a week and liked it and had fun with download able patches and the pedal sounds way more real and tube like than my Boss me-20. I was wondering the differences between this and the GT-10 were and the differences between the xt live and the x3 live (other than prices :) , thanks in advance,
Taylor
I used the Line6 amp on one of my concert in Georgia last week plus the church I use to play ay had
Hi Glenn Im a fan of x3 and x3 live,I have them both,the external Ir loader helps much this unit in your opinion?like Nux studio mini?
have you used this at stage ?
If you have then is it good at stage ? Is it easy to use ?
Thanks :) Great video :)
Glenn, have you ever worked with Zoom's g9.2tt processor? I've test driven boss gt-10, all of line 6, tc nova system, and zoom. And, the zoom really connected with me the best.

i just bought the X3.. still learning
Hey, Glenn. I have a quick question. If you have four different sounds in the A, B, C, and D channels, do you need to have them on the same bank #? (in your case #26)
Why don't you do rp1000 patches? Would love to get them from you
thanks man...1 more question....is it possible to read the parameters of ur created x3 live patches tht i downloaded frm ur website? i mean through some x3 live editor or somethin?
wow, you're right! still, it sounds awesome man! thanks for the quick reply :)

You seem to get some really nice tone with the pod and i have been trying for ages to get a slash guns n roses type sound and just cant do it, do you have any tips?
Hello extremevideopro
nice sound!!!
i'm thinking of buying a line 6 pod x3 live but i'm wondering if the pedal works fine only with a power amp marshall el 30 50/50 or if i also need to buy a pre amp. Greetings.

Hi sir, today I bought your X3 live Patches. As shown in line6 UA-cam channel it’s simple select drag and drop the preset on any bank using gear box. I have done all the pre work regarding drivers and firmware upgradation everything is up to date. My question is for tone 2 what do I need to do after I put all the patches in tone 1 in order?
hey, quick question, why do you have a condenser mic infront of your amp, that you record with cubase? Im aware of that the line 6 has a USB, then you can simply plug into your cpu.
thanks i might just have to get a peavey windsor then to run the POD x3 through cause it has a good clean sound and it is a tube amp. do you think that would be a smart buy?

Thanks
y on the EQ block, do u increase +4 +4 +4.2 +4 across the bands, when 0, 0, +0.2, 0 would be hte same.
Thank you for your teach.
I hope to buy that POD......:-/
I just bought one of these. I noticed you turned AMP and CAB off to get it to sound good thru your amp. I'm going to be playing thru a PA and using an amp for on stage monitor (amp not miked). Wouldn't I need AMP and CAB for the PA?
I see you make demo videos for the gt10 and the pod x3, which do you prefer??
when you use this on stage, do you tell the guy on the mixing console to keep every parameter on the mixer corresponding to your guitar at 12o clock position? plz reply
hey man how come you play with your thumb ? Thats pretty amazing
nice vodeo
What kind of delay is there when playing live, and switching from the clean tone, to the gain tone?
Say I were playing "One" by Metallica. Going from the verse into the chorus, will it be seemless when switching from my clean to heavy ?
Glenn,
I just purchased a used (but in very good condition) PodX3. When I follow your settings it sounds identical until I attempt to set up Tone 2 there is no sound at all. Any thoughts on what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks
thanks :)
wen u play live, then do you connect the x3 o the amp and mic out? or do you directly connect the x3 to the mixer?
thanks
I have a fender FM212DSP and I was just wondering if it would work fine with this kind of multi-effects amp or even a fender 'blues junior' which I also have but hesitate using any pedals and effects with it because it just sounds great as is. Comment, criticize please!! Thanks!
This video exemplifies why I sold my Vetta 2- Too much tweaking to get the perfect tone. In the time it took to watch the tweaks in this video, I learned two new songs and had a sandwich. After you own a line 6 product for a year or more, I'll guarantee you'll get tired of trying to tame it, like not being able to dial out the excessive picking noise or the high end fizz on the high gain patches.
nice playing man.
i am confused between the boss GT 10 and the POD X3 live . help me out, wat should i buy.
@blksolo Sound like it can't be cabled correctly? I could be wrong though I'm sure i've had this problem before on a completely different unit.
Anyway.
I want that PRS,i'm coming to get it!
Dude, to live performance do you prefer the GT-10 or the X3? Thanks.
here you are using one amp....but are u still using the dual tone feature for ur patches?
What Crate amp is this? I know it's a 30watt amp but what model, and what pre set do you have the amp at?
@bbtucci I have a Spider III 75 watts and I don't know how to make it sound good with my new pod x3 live, Do you think it is a good combination the pod with that kind of amp, isn't it better to buy another kind of amp or is it possible to get a really good sound wth that amp?
