Why Does My POD XT Live Go Mental?

support@line6.com — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 16:18:30 GMT

I'm borrowing from a semi-off-topic post from a Bass Pod poster's thread here: http://line6.com/community/message/95307#95307. I have a guitar Pod XT Live with psycho gain management symptoms. While playing, the unit will spontaneously leap huge increments in volume, either upwards or downwards. I'll readjust my amp gain to compensate and then eventually, wham... off it goes to a radically different new volume setting. I'm not 100% on this, but I think I'm seeing this phenomenon more often when the unit is cold then after it has been powered on for some time.

Took it to an authorized repair shop in Wheaton, MD and after $100 and several round trips, it now seems to be a little worse.

No active electronics, just a passive Tom Anderson hollow drop-top directly into the unit. Cables are fine.

One thing I've noticed just by diddling with the thing, sometimes, immediately after one of these spontaneous gain changes, if I either (1) whack the volume pedal with my foot or (2) wiggle and reposition the "Drive" knob, the unit gain will restore to what it was just prior to the madness, but sometimes not. Last night I updated all of the unit software, reflashed the unit and calibrated the volume pedal. If I knew of any other possible remedies, I'd try them as well.

Is anyone aware of a calibration or reset procedure for all of the rotary encoders on the unit?

Because the unit is so flaky now (despite being well taken care of - no drops, etc.), I can't trust it in a live performance situation. The changes in gain are so prominent that it's disruptive to any performance. Also, like one of the other posters earlier in this thread, it's also becoming too much of a pain in the butt to practice or rehearse with. It's a shame because I am really fond of some of my home brew user patches, but I'm now afraid to use the thing.

Any deep knowledge Pod XT Live medicine men out there?

Pod XT Live &Windows 7

Hi everyone,

I'm just bought a new laptop with Windows 7 on it and I can't seem to connect via USB. I've pulled out my old Vista laptop and everything is fine so I've updated all the drivers (not sure if it updates drivers within the Pod) and still nothing.

All I'm getting is the 3 duh duh duh's, so it's not feeling the device at all.

If anyone can help, I'd be grateful.

Regards

Steve

Hi, i just bought floor pod product. When i checked adapter it says 120V 60Hz but in my country we use electricity 220V at 50Hz rate. My question is can i use a simple 220V to 120V converter for adapter or should i buy a new adapter with compatible 50Hz?

pocket pod presets volume levels

support@line6.com — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 15:09:56 GMT

Just got a pocket pod and I'm a bit disappointed that the volume levels between presets vary widely. SOme are very faint and others are so loud that the level is uncomfortable even with my little 15 watt amp turned right down.

Why are the levels so varied across presets and how can I even them up?

Thanks

iLok License

support@line6.com — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 15:04:24 GMT

Hello-

When I purchased my X3 Live, I was told that I would eventually be able to get a free iLok license for Pod Farm. I've had it over a year now and haven't been able to find a way to get the iLok license deposited to my account. Any help would be most appreciated as the X3 does not work well with my Logic / 002 rig.

Thanks-
