What's latency? Latency is the delay caused by the time it takes your guitar signal to travel all the way through your hardware USB audio interface, through your computer's CPU processor, through your plug-in software, back through your hardware interface, and out of your speakers or headphones. This delay is significant in your monitoring signal and makes recording almost impossible. With a Line 6 POD Studio UX2 interface, latency is something you'll never have to deal with.
POD Studio UX2 includes professional Ableton Live Lite Line 6 Studio Edition recording software, which gives you a 8 tracks to work with. And RiffWorks T4 recording software is included as well, designed specifically for the guitarist and features loop recording, an Instant drummer, song posting, online collaboration, and more.
