Sign in to disble this ad
Hello all!

I´m thinking to buy a little multi effect and i´m thinking in two models , the Korg pandora PX5D and the Line 6 POD XT.
I want practice at home and if is possible in live.
I donn´t know if the POD XT have drum loops.

anyone have any of these models?

Sorry for my english and Thanks.

POD XT if you want a tool for performance, Pandora if you want a practice tool. The POD does not have drum loops.

pod is really great for live and studio use considering its very cheap. i used mine for 2-3 years before i got single effects, good to learn on.

but he's right, pod doesn't have drum loops or anything, its just an amp/effect simulator

Thanks for your answers,

I want use for practice, but if I found a multieffect with good live sound and good for practice with drum loops , etc .. be happy.

I am seriously considering a PX5D as I am a comebacker (12+ years w/o playing) and I also would like to riff on the 6-string as well.

I've used a Pandora PX4D for practicing for several years. I love it but I wouldn't use it live.

I have a Bass POD XT and love it. No drum loops there, though.

I don't have experience with the Pandora, but you might also want to consider one of the Zoom pedals. They come in four varieties: B1, B1x, B2, B21u - all floor-based and ready for live performances, but also come equipped with built-in drum loops. The modeling quality isn't as great as the POD, IMO, but it's very nice nonetheless.

And the B1 versions cost under $100 here in the US. Definitely consider checking one out...
