I had a similar prob when jamming with andy7jem through my amp...all i did was unplug one of the audio inputs to the amp (so that only 1 input was plugged in) and, hey presto, I got sound.

Or, do you know there is a switch at the back of the pod which you can set to "amp" or "something else"?

It's very easy dude. I use my pod with computer speakers up at college b/c I can't really bring my amp up. Just get an adapter from Radioshack or some place, plug the adapter into the headphone jack of the pod, and then plug the speaker's cable into the adapter. Super simple, it is definitely plug and play.

Is it a used iPod? I had a problem with one that I have had for 4 years. No sound from the headphone jack or when docked and running through a docking boombox. If that's what yours is doing; it's the logic board internally. Needs to be replaced. I have serviced a few iPods now and once you get them open, you will see that all the parts are connector plug removable and replaceable. A replacement logic board will run about $50.00 - $70.00 on ****.
Good luck!

WTF!! haha
well I´m pretty sure he is talking about a line 6 pod, not an apple ipod

you could try plugging it into the speakers or connecting the pod to the mic input of your computer

ahh noobies...

oh a serious note, make sure the audio is correct and the right input is selected and your in the correct input and nothing is on mute, I would also make sure the +20db boost in on as well.

My guess is that your pod is plugged into the mic jack, you don't get sound using that, only recording (Which means you record without sound and once you hit play, you hear it) Plug it in the blue hole (Line-in) is the name of it.
