From the site:

How is PODXT Live different than PODXT and PODXT Pro?

PODXT Live is a complete guitar tone rig built into a rugged, live performance oriented foot controller. The foot controller gives you direct patch access, “Stomp” switches to toggle individual effects, and the ability to set your tempo and tune your guitar. The unit has the same basic connections as a PODXT (bean), but in addition to traditional analog ins and outs, PODXT Live features a Variax digital input/output jack. This allows you to digitally connect a Line 6 Variax guitar with a single cable to PODXT Live which powers the guitar, carries your guitar’s sound output, and allows the Variax to receive preset sounds from the PODXT Live. A single step on a preset switch will reconfigure your effects, amp and cab model - plus set the guitar model and tone information on a connected Variax!

Horizontal integration, baby!
