UX1 MIC INPUT NOISE

support@line6.com — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 04:27:11 GMT

Hello

My MIC entrance in my UX1 makes a lot of noise for itself, even if i have nothing plugged to it!!

Here are the printscreens (again, nothing plugged into MIC)... the noise is, as you can imagine, quite a lot, especially because the only way of hearing myself decenlty without licking the microfone is pushing up the gain up to almost 10dB.

0dB - 7dB - 8dB - 9dB - 10dB -

Please note the noise is independant from the setup i choose, it appears in the dry input as you can see. My guitar input works perfeclty, without any noise, wich makes this even stranger

Crackling in monitors, using Toneport UX1

support@line6.com — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 02:26:48 GMT

I've tried the recommendations that have already been posted, including optimizing my computer settings, downloading the latest drivers and software versions, and trying different settings for buffer size, bitrate, and so on. I've checked all the hardware (monitors are brand new, cables are new/not damaged). My computer should be plenty fast enough (and when I'm not using monitors, it handles the recording software fine, with processing and memory to spare). So I've kind of reached my wits end...I just spent a bunch of money on these monitors and I can't hear anything but crackling static.

Hardware:

Laptop (Windows Vista, 64bit, 2.10GHz, 4.0GB RAM)

Toneport UX1 (connected by USB 2.0)
M-Audio Studio Monitors (connected by two 1/4" cables to Output from Toneport)

Guitar or Amp (into 1/4" Instrument input on Toneport)

Software:

Line6 Gearbox (usually set on bypass, if I'm recording direct from an amp)

Ableton LiveLite 7.0

Pod Studio UX1 Not Working With Windows 7

support@line6.com — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 18:10:28 GMT

Greetings,

I've gone through all of the support FAQs/discussions so this is a last-ditch attempt. I am getting sporadic performance from the UX1 on my laptop (brand new, core i7 processor, Win7, 4g ram). Playback stutters, system sounds only happen sometimes (e.g. - running the "test" function on the sound devices control panel only plays sounds less than half the time) - thus I know it's not an issue with my DAW software. Following the manual and support FAQs, I have:

1. disabled antivirus

2. disabled all wireless/bluetooth network adapters

3. disabled the computer's sound card

4. adjusted sound settings (buffers, size, etc.)

Still, the stuttering problem when playing back and the sporadic appearance of system sounds persists. I have the latest Line6 drivers and software. Any other tips?

Thanks.

kb37 as a real sound card

support@line6.com — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 19:55:25 GMT

so your telling us that we have to use the pod farm or some audio software to hear the line inputs on the kb37? this again is misleading in your advertising. and if I use podfarm I am getting distortion on the line in even when I delete all amps and other devices from the podfarm audio chain. I also don't get a dry channel it still runs through the amps or whatever else is in the audio chain. also I am using the line 1 and 2 inputs, why am I getting audio on the 3 and 4? I am not using an spdif input????

stolen ilok

support@line6.com — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 15:18:00 GMT

Hi guys,

I am in the great position of having my ilok stolen. It was stolen from my laptop bag at Malga airport which security would not allow through, because of two kensington laptop padlocks!, therefore I had to put the bag back through check in. When I arrived back in the UK, my bag had been gone through, cash gone and my usb drives (including my ilok) were missing/stolen.

I have generated an rma number with ilok (RMA tracking ID is SI1395674).

I am therefore asking if you can upload replacement licences to my ilok account: bigearsaudio.

I have attached all the relevant plugin details.

Thanks for your help,

I have 7 days left on my temporary licences, so your quick response would be greatly appreciated.

Yours in anticipation,

Bruce Pont

Pops/clicks in Vista-64

support@line6.com — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 04:03:41 GMT

I previously had Windows XP 32-bit installed with my KB37 TonePort and POD Farm software...seemed to run fine.

Then, I upgraded to Windows Vista 64-bit Home Premium and now I get periodic pops/cracks in the sound. These pop/cracks happen when using my guitar through the KB37 TonePort with POD Farm and even when just listening to MP3s. I believe the problem lies withing the ASIO drivers and how they interact with a Vista 64 environment...not 100% sure though.

I have tried the tweaks presented here http://line6.com/community/docs/DOC-1490 , but to no avail. Has Line6 identified the cause of the problem and have a "get-well" date and patch to fix this? I am deeply concerned with being able to continue use of this equipment and future Line6 purchases. It would be disappointing to have to look to other companies for my equipment & software. Your support is highly appreciated!

Regards,

UX1 Recording Acoustic

support@line6.com — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 02:56:14 GMT

Hello,

I have recorded with my acoustic using the 1/4 inch standard input but it sounds rather electonic.. I'm not sure if it's the pickup which is a piezo or if there is a better way to record. My Strat sounds great though with no issues there.. Can I use a mic in the xlr port or can I use an acoustic directly connected using an xlr output? What type of mic would be recommended? Also I see that the UX1 does not supply phantom power can a separate power supply be used? Any info on this would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Bob

TonePort DI-S No Sound

support@line6.com — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:51:23 GMT

I just received my TonePort DI-S from my GuitarPort bundle. I installed all of the software. I have the TonePort plugged in. I have a green light. I have re-installed drives more than once. I have restarted the computer more than once. I have switched USB port, computer front panel not a hub. I have all of the up to date Drivers, USB, Gear Box, etc.

I am getting no sound through my computer speakers from the Guitar. I see needles moving on Gear Box. I have twisted knobs, pushed buttons, tried combinations of things. I can hear the video tutorials played from the embedded browser at the bottom of gear box just fine.

I know there is something super simple that I am not seeing here. Why can't I hear my guitar played through my PC speakers?

thanks

UX2 Tone Port with Pod Farm and Logic 9.01

support@line6.com — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 18:44:47 GMT

I have a couple issues with the UX2 on my Imac.

Monkey tells me that i have all the current drivers etc.

1) Although it works for the most part,

When opening Pod Farm as a stand alone, I always have to choose the UX2 if I start Pod Farm where it used to be able to find it.

2) If possible, How can i get the UX2 to record two inputs at the same time, on seperate tracks in logic 9 ?

for example: Mic 1 and Inst 1 (Gear box seemed to offer this, although I never tried it)

3) Is it possible yet to choose the UX2 inputs within the logic as the host app?

Thanks, Todd
