I use studio mode all the time. I just have 3 versions of all patches:

1.  Pedals only no amp sim no cab sim (for direct to amp input set ups)
2. Pedals amp sim on, cab sim off (for direct to amp fx return set ups)
3. Pedals amp sim on cab sim on (for direct to PA work)

I have a patch for a 4 cable set up pero I never use it live kasi it's a bitch to set up, hahaha.

That said, OK talaga siya if titiyagain. I have a patch where I use the clean preamp of an amp and another clean voicing on the POD with a different character, and I have another patch where I use the a dirty voicing in the POD. Essentially this gives me a two channel amp rig.

What has worked for me is plugging both to the power section of a guitar amp and having an xlr send to FOH. That way I'm sure I'm in the house mix. 

I don't use a speaker aim in this set up as it will color the stage amp tone. As far as I know the XLR out of the pod has speaker compensation even when no cab sims are on. This should result in a more pleasant tone on your stage monitors and FOH.

Concern and Question

sinubukan ko i-plug yung hd500x ko sa computer using usb cable, then ininstall ko yung hd500 edit software,
kung pwede ba na mag record ako or magamit ko na output yung computer speakers/headphones ko,
if so, pde po bang magpaturo, kasi na detect nman na yung hd500x na nka plug in, pero wlang sound mula sa gitara>computer>speaker,
am i missing something?

salamat mo sa magtuturo

I think what you are missing is a DAW. May mga free na DAWs. Try mo reaper. What I used before was GarageBand lang. hehehe I don't think simply plugging the unit sa PC mo will give you an output. Good luck chief!  :)

go to ur sound settings.(windows or mac)
then set mo dun yung input and output settings mo..

based on ur setup nkaset ang input and output sa pod hd500 as usb interface. that means. galing sa pod ang sound lalabas din sa pod directly. mas ideal nga yan na setup if mag rerecord ka thru any DAW(reaper or garageband etc) kasy super low latency.. kasi pag sinet mo ouput mo sa computer speakers mo or computer headphones. there will be a noticeable latency or delay sa sound. unless ur using asio drivers.
what i would suggest is kunin mo yung computer speakers mo and lagay mo yun sa (headphone out) ng pod mo. hehh
that way super low latency ka.

Settled na ako for this set-up. Better result so far:

Guitar > Mooer Yellow Comp > ElectricNim OD > Shredhead  > Spark Mini > EB VP Jr. > POD HD  > Amp

One of the best things they did with the Helix series is to embed the power supply in the unit. The old PSUS that they supplied with XT Live and HD500X units can cost a lot when you need to replace them.
