Note that all other features are identical in operation to those of the Plug-In, so please review "POD FarmTM 2 Plug-In" on page 4·1 for details on other features. With any Line 6 POD StudioTM, TonePortTM or GuitarPortTM device as the connected hardware, * POD FarmTM 2 can be launched in "standalone" operation - that is, as an individual application rather than a Plug-In requiring a host application. This allows you to use your computer as a virtual rack of amps, preamps & effects, and jam along with your favorite tracks. Or, utilize your USB hardware as a "front end" Tone machine, where you can process your input source, feed the signal to the Record Sends for your DAW software application, as well as to all analog and digital hardware outputs. In standalone operation, POD Farm 2 also offers the super low latency benefits of ToneDirectTM Monitoring, as well as a complete Mixer View where you can independently control the signals fed to the Record Sends!To launch POD Farm 2 in standalone operation: · On Mac®, go to /Applications/Line 6/POD Farm 2 · On Windows®, go to the Start button menu\Programs\Line 6\POD Farm 2 POD Farm 2 running in standalone operation Application Menu Commands To follow are descriptions for commands found in the POD Farm 2 application menus.
