line 6 Guitar Port
anyone using a Line6 Guitar port out there? Great little device lets you attach your electric directly to a windows pc. models 8 amps and special effects boxes. lets you download songs and shows tab as you play with the device. Sounds good and it is easy to use. Picked it up for 169 lets you use a Pc and headphones as a practice amp

I've been thinking about getting one.....looks like a great idea. I think guitar mag has free downloads for it to correspond with the tab in each months magazine.

I love my guitar port!
Besides all the great effects I can use it to lay down tracks with cool edit pro. My computer has become a total recording studio.

That sounds like a great idea. I have not played much in recent years, and playing with a CRT monitor gave that awful hum...now that I have a flat panel and a bit more free time, this sounds like a potential purchase. Thanks for mentioning it.

Question - I just got the new toy and am really, really impressed. For those of you in the know - what happens to all the tones and songs I d/l from the GuitarPortOnline service when I unsubscribe? If I have downloaded them to my HD, will I still be able to access them (and better yet, do I have to save them in a special manner?)
Thanks! |

I actually don't like modelling stuff.
I stretch to good quality digital effects, but most of the stuff I like is analog. I'm doing some recording right now using little 30 watt el84 powered boutique amps, and I'm pretty happy with the results. Most of the line 6 stuff I've played with seems okay at first, but it just doesn't have the feel of a really good guitar amp. I was interested in the guitar port for doing stuff just to muck around, the versatility is great, but I wouldn't use one for professional work. |

Line6 seems to have a love/hate relationship with the public. People like their stuff, or not. Personally, I'm looking for a new amp, and since I'm a relative beginner with developing musical tastes, the Line 6 Flextone or Spyder would be perfect for me because of their versatility. But, if their amps really are as bad as some people seem to say, then that plan is a no go.

I have a Line6 AX2 - and it is pretty versatile and annoyiong at the same time.
Versatile: I can get lots of strange sounds out of it that I like a lot. The interface is easy to use once you learn how to deal with it live. Annoying: there's a pause in sound when switching channels, plus at high volumes the amp starts mis behaving...
