Recording

With 12dB more dynamic range than similar interfaces, the POD studio KB37 is extremely low noise. Latency is a thing of the past with Line 6's exclusive Tone Direct monitoring.

With 44.1/48 kHz 16-/24-bit recording (88.2/96 kHz with sample-rate conversion) the sound is pro studio standard. You can also record a dry signal while monitoring a fully processed POD tone so you arent forced to commiy to a tone until you are completely sure.
