I have a variety of audio devices that will work with the old 30 pin adapters, but nothing that will work with my iPhone 5.

I was happy to see that Line 6 released something that will work with the old and new interfaces. The Sonic Port has a 1/4" guitar in, a 1/4" guitar amp/line-out, a headphone jack and an aux-in which beats all other devices I've seen so far. The Sonic Port can use either the guitar or the aux input, but will give preference to the aux input if both have something plugged into them.

The Sonic Port will let you get the full power from Line 6's free app "Mobile Pod" which is a close copy of the physical amp modeler they sell. The mobile Pod app is missing a few essential effects pedals, but hopefully they'll add those for free since you need to use a Line 6 device to get the full benefit of the app in the first place. Charging extra to buy core functionality would be rather cheesy IMHO. I also tested the interface with Garage band and had no trouble using it at all.

The Sonic Port seems very well made, but take good care of the proprietary 30-pin and lightening cables since there's no telling how much a replacement would cost.

The only downsides to the Sonic Port are the somewhat high cost and the inability to charge your device while using the Sonic Port.

I own multiple iPad and iPhone interfaces and this is by far the best. Instrument and headphones plug into device and both 30 pin and lightning cords included. By using an extended cord to the device (unlike previous Line 6 devices), little stress is placed on dock connector and it stays plugged in. Sound quality is much better than headphone jack connected devices (iRig). Works thus far with Mobile POD, Garageband, Amplitude and Ampkit. Only downside is inability to charge device while audio interface is plugged in.

This is the perfect interface for the home recordist. Only down side is you can't charge while using. High quality sound and works well with other apps.

This is a good piece of equipment but not the greatest. It does what is says it will do but is a bit fiddly. I also use the JamIt pro on the iPad and to be honest I prefer the quality of the sounds and the ease of use of the JamIt.

Having said that for the money this is a useful addition and allows access to the excellent Line 6 service.

This is the second gen of the line6 mobilepod/sonicport. It is a great product, I purchased it for line-in from my guitar and other sources to an iPad garageband.

It works great with audiobus for the line6 effects and a good line-in, but if you are going DI from a guitar the volume may not get up there. I _WAS_ able to find a workaround and use the mobilePOD, but turned off all effects and head/cab modeling and was able to get a little bit more volume from it.

Overall a great product and does exactly what I wanted for the price! Can't wait for their next gen of mobile recording/modeling.
