The user interface is based on a carousel browser, with graphic representations of the amps, cabs and effects - more about how that works later. You can select up to two to go before the preamp, and build more complex chains in the effects loop. Pod Farm includes a good range of effects. This is the first Line 6 software that can be used without owning one of their hardware products: authorisation is linked either to a specific piece of Line 6 hardware or an iLok dongle. Authorisation is completed on‑line using the very friendly Line 6 Monkey utility software, which also looks after updates and purchased add‑ons for you.
The basic version features fewer models, but otherwise offers the same functionality. It's essentially the software version of a fully expanded Pod X3. The latter comes with 250 models covering amps, cabs, studio effects, stomp-box effects and a handful of studio preamps. There are two versions: regular and 'Platinum'. Pod Farm, which replaces Line 6's earlier Gearbox software, is a VST, RTAS and AU plug‑in for Mac and PC that offers Line 6's amp and effect modelling for guitarists, bassists and even vocalists.
