I’m giging with mine

Found this in the manual (pg 32): "TIP: If you're jamming along with music via USB streaming, such as from a computer or mobile device app (iTunes, Spotify, etc.) to POD Express, you can independently adjust the level of the streaming USB audio, if necessary, using the "Global Settings" USB In 1/2 Trim option. This allows you to more easily balance the music playback volume versus the level of your guitar or bass signal." Also, there's no function to use external footswitch on looper sadly (pg 28-30).

Just ordered one yesterday, on a whim, really. I've been almost exclusively recording with Neural Amp Modeller, and FX in my DAW (Reaper), but I want an easy-to-use all-in-one desktop guitar processor that I don't have to think about too much. This seems to fit that need.

Thanks for your various useful scenarios POD Express, you covered some issues others haven't yet. Waiting on mine still, maybe a few weeks yet. I don't want to bother with my Bias/DAW or a menu LCD on pricier pedals, just a pedal box with knobs I can dial in for creative sessions or run through my interface to record occasionally. Getting a foot switch for the OD but see if I can run the looper with it. Did you see if you could use the Delay when you were on the looper or is it either/or, maybe one drawback.

Use the volume slider in the software (iTunes or whatever) to control the playback volume. Does that work?

I've found, maybe obvious but the better the amp.ur using the better it's gonna sound.

can it reamp the clean signal?

Got it ,it rocks and for $179 UNBEATABLE.

By the way mine arrives today says Usps.

It looks like an old Gameboy from the back.
