Line 6, Inc.is now shipping powerful new POD Studio™ USB interfaces for recording guitarists. Each POD Studio includes POD Farm™ plug-in to provide POD® tone for any DAW.

"There's a POD Studio perfect for every application," remarks David Dolan, Line 6 Product Marketing Manager. "And combined with POD Farm, our premium POD tone plug-in, POD Studio will revolutionize the way guitarists record—just like the original POD."

POD Farm plug-in, available in both Mac® AU/RTAS®/VST® and Windows® RTAS®/VST® formats, supplies a must-have collection of legendary tones necessary for every recording guitarist.
