There was a thread about it a couple months ago. I remember some people making fun of it. For me, Line 6 has been a huge part of my setup, but I have really been disappointed with them since they came out with the PODX3. I thought they were going to knock it out of the park so-to-speak with their new modeler......after all, they are supposed to be the authority on amp modelers. When I see the X3 and X3 Pro, I see rehashed technology and they are milking it for everything its worth. This new rackmount X3 does have a lot of nice options, but its still going to sound essentially the same as the PODxt that I've had since Christmas of 2002 with additional model packs purchased along the way. And come on already, how many people with an old POD don't already have a preamp of some sort?
To me it is clear that Line 6 is no longer the amp modeling authority and that Michael from Alien Connections/Peavey is. Again, not to bash Line 6 too much because they have been a HUGE part of my music, but their focus on amp modeling is really taking a dump. They are innovative in repackaging, but Alien Connections in innovative where it really counts. Just my opinion.
