I've heard a lot about'em......I was wondering if you could give me your thoughts

I'm also thinkin' about pickin' up a P.O.D. 2.0......Is this recomended? or can anyone suggest a better product that'll give me the same results?

Glassias!!!

It depends on what you want to do. Im using a Pod pro into a desk and it is very cool however Im also using a Digitech GNX2 into a desk which is also very cool. The Pod sounds more organic but both are fantastic.

I have the AX2 combo and it's great, maybe it's not "as" warm as tubes, but, all the effects and tweakability are a major plus for creativity... Also, the POD's a great tool as well...

As soon as I save up the cash I'm going with the Vetta HD and Full stack... I played around on a Vetta combo and I fell in love with the near limitless possibilities it has...and the displays and back lit buttons look Bad ***...

What about the ability to update??? I heard from a friend of mine that the POD is hardware based where other types of gear (such as the Johnson J-Station) are software based and can be updated through the internet... Is this a downfall, or will I even need to worry about that?

No,it is all software based.Line 6 has the patch's on their website.They have a whole library of them.The software(to download patch's,and also to edit them)comes with the POD.Hope this help,s.

This helps alot!

One More thing...

Any idea how much I might have to drop for one of these baby's???

Updating the POD is done by replacing the EPROM chip if I'm not mistaking.

Patches(pre-sets) are a completely different thing, and yeah, can be downloaded into the POD via MIDI.
