GearBox™
The included GearBox™ software controls TonePort and gives you a premium tone front end for all your recordings.

Far better than recording through plug-ins, it avoids the latency from your recording program and operating system. ToneDirect also easily beats analog direct monitoring options that force you to record guitar without hearing the amp model and effects, or struggle to get an inspired vocal with no reverb! With GearBox software and TonePort hardware, it’s easy to get amazing sounding recordings every time inspiration hits.

For Guitar & Bass

GearBox™ is the Line 6 software that gives the TonePort™ UX1 and UX2 hardware interfaces world-class studio tone on the desktop. Built on the technological foundation of the studio-standard POD® XT and Bass POD® XT direct recording devices, GearBox provides a hardware-like, simple to understand and operate interface for dialing in the perfect tone every time.

GearBox's meticulously crafted recreations of a dream collection of 16 classic and modern guitar amplifiers,24 guitar speaker cabinet models, 5 must-have bass amp and cab models, and 24 stompbox and studio effects capture the range of tone found on the best tracks ever recorded. You can mix and match PODXT-based amp and cab models based on * Marshall®, Fender®, Mesa/Boogie®, Vox®, Roland®, Soldano and more, with realistic looking controls that make any guitarist feel right at home.

Feel like cutting your guitar and vocal track at the same time? No problem. GearBox lets you have a completely different signal path for your guitar and vocal. Now you can have the same great guitar tone you’re used to while your vocal gets treated to models of a vintage preamps, compressors, reverb and more. And with ToneDirect™ monitoring, you get the fully processed audio while you track both parts. GearBox will even send the processed vocal and guitar signals as two separate stereo sends directly into your recording software at the same time!

GearBox even lets you run a completely different signal path for your microphone input with models of vintage preamps, compressors, and reverbs while still giving you the ultimate direct recording sound for your guitar.

Gearbox can be set up to send your dry vocal to your recording app even when you're monitoring with post effects like mod, delay and reverb. Record either the wet or dry signal - or both. It's your choice!

And with ToneDirect™ monitoring, you get fully processed audio so you get the sound of a million dollar studio right when you start tracking. In minutes, you’ll be creating tracks that typically take an entire studio, an expert engineer, and a huge hourly rate to pull off!

GearBox™ Exclusive Preamp Models:

American Classic - Inspired by* an API lunch box preamp in a classic studio setup:

  • This model gives you classic rock tone that’s focused and a bit compressed through soft distortion. It even includes the treasured tonality and saturation you'd get when recording to classic 24-track analog tape! Good for transients and maintaining a leveled vocal.

Vintage UK - Inspired by* a Neve 1073

  • Warm with mild distortion when pushed. Vintage UK handles transients very well and is great for vocal tracking. Extended bass range also makes it great for direct bass and drum work.

Modern - Inspired by* an Avalon Vt737

  • This modern must-have has a clean, bright, and non-compressed sound with soft transients.

Console - Solid State Console Mic Pre Design

  • Has a flat frequency response that’s clean with no artifacts or colorization. A great choice for tracking line level instruments like a keyboard.

Vintage- Inspired by* a Classic Vintage Tube Preamp setup

  • This model yields vintage Motown, Memphis, Nashville, and early rock sounds.

Lo-Fi

  • Has a small speaker sound that’s slightly distorted. Great for adding an overdriven vocal to a track.

GearBox™ Exclusive Preamp Effects Models:

  • Compressor (based on* LA-2A® Compressor)
  • Noise Gate
  • Male De-Esser
  • Female De-Esser
  • All that plus an entire collection of the world’s greatest studio reverbs, delays, and much more!!
