USB Audio Interface with Modeled Effects and Amps from the POD Family

Compact and Powerful USB Interface!
Line 6 presents the TonePort GX, a USB recording interface that gives guitarists the legendary sound of POD at an unprecedented price. Compact, but not lacking features, the TonePort GX is sleek, striking, and stripped-down, and packs professional-level 24-bit/96kHz operation. Loaded with amp, cabinet and effect models from the wildly successful POD, the TonePort GX is designed to allow any guitarist or bassist access to hassle-free, low-latency music-making. Its built-in audio player allows musicians to jam along with MP3s, and TonePort GX works with most popular recording platforms.

Line 6 TonePort GX at a Glance:
  • Sound incredible with POD tone
  • Record with your favorite software
  • Low Latency, ToneDirect Monitoring

Sound incredible with POD tone
When Line 6 introduced POD, it changed the world of guitar recording forever. Since then, countless platinum albums have been recorded with the one-of-a-kind Line 6 sound, and that's exactly what you get from TonePort GX. From finely crafted models of guitar and bass rigs to premium tube recording equipment, you'll have everything you need for incredible sounding guitar, bass and vocal tracks.

Record with your favorite software
Plug into TonePort GX and record your tunes with the tone you crave using your favorite recording application, including Pro Tools, GarageBand, Logic, Cakewalk/Sonar and many, many more. Studio-quality specs in a mobile USB recording interface. Don't be fooled by its size. TonePort GX delivers 24-bit recording, 96kHz sample rate support and over 100dB signal-to-noise ratio for truly album quality results at an unbelievable price. Simply plug in, install the included GearBox software, and turn your computer into a state-of-the-art recording studio.

Low Latency, ToneDirect Monitoring
A common problem with recording guitar on the computer is "latency" - a noticeable delay (not the good kind!) between the time you play your guitar and the time you hear your processed guitar sound through your computer's speakers. Other interfaces try to "solve" the problem by letting you hear "dry" (or unprocessed) guitar signal while recording-killing your inspiration and making you guess what you'll sound like. With ToneDirect Monitoring you hear exactly what you're playing while you're playing and recording it.

Line 6 TonePort GX Features:
  • Low-latency ToneDirect monitoring, so you can hear what you're recording without undesirable delay
  • 44.1kHz, 48kHz and 96 kHz Recording for studio-quality tracks
  • Works with leading recording software on Mac and Windows
  • 23 guitar/bass amp models, 29 guitar/bass cab models, and 6 vocal mic preamps for amazing, studio-quality tracks
  • Built-in set of 30 stompbox and studio effect models, including Distortion, Delay, Reverb, Wah, Flanger, Chorus, and more
  • Guitar/Bass/Mic Input
  • USB bus-powered; LED status indicator
  • Audio player to jam along with CDs or MP3s
  • Attaches to a guitar strap or sit on a desk
  • Headphone/Line Output
