Connecting Line 6 Hardware to your Preferred Audio Device
If you want to use POD Farm in Standalone operation and your Line 6 device in a computer recording
setup where a sound card already exists, then you might find it useful to connect your Analog Outs
into the analog inputs of the existing sound card. This allows you to use the existing sound card with
your recording application to also receive additional discrete inputs directly from other sources at the
same time, if this is your desired setup. When your Line 6 device is connected to another sound card
this way, then you will want to be sure your recording software is set to use the other sound card as
its input device for recording. In this configuration, since your Line 6 device is not in use by an audio
application as a sound card, its Analog Out signal is what is being recorded, and therefore, levels are
controlled by the POD Farm Standalone’s Volume knobs and the Line 6 hardware Volume knob.
