Compatible Foot Controllers
Both the FBV and FBV Shortboard are compatible with POD XT Pro. The FBV Shortboard gives basic control and the FBV adds more control over stompboxes and effects, as well as dedicated wah and volume pedals.
Live PODXT Pro Use
The PODxt Pro features a "live mode" that gives you the best of both worlds when playing live. Just use the XLR outputs to feed the sound board for pristine board-ready tone and simultaneously use the 1/4" outputs, which are optimized for your onstage amp & cabs.
