Re: Variax Workbench

this  question has  asked  over  and  over.   the  company  says  they   have  no plans  to update  workbench  at this  time.  that translates  into  you need  to  pay  more for  somethign  else  to  connect  to your  new  computer

 

actually   workbench  does  work  with  the 64  bitwindows  the  issue  is   that  there  is  no usb driver for it so  you cant  connect  to  the  guitar.  that  pretty  much  makes  it  useless unless  you  buy   another  piece  of  equipment  that  does  have a  usb driver  ot  go backward  to  xp  . someone  did  say  it works  with windows 7    .  like i said  it  works  with  vista  but  no usb  driver.

 

anyway  there  not  gonna  fix  ir   at this   time  they say.

Re: Variax Workbench

According to the workbench release notes Line6 andy published in the "Popular Documents" section, Workbench V1.58 supports the Windows 64 bit operating system unless you are using the Variax to computer hardware interface shipped with the boxed or retail version of Workbench.  See below:

 

v1.58 Release Notes/Known Issues

 

What’s New?

  • This version of Workbench software adds support for POD X3 Pro

  • This version of Workbench software adds support for 64 bit operating systems.

 

Known Issues:

*    The 64 bit drivers only support the Line 6 Variax PODxt Live, POD X3 Live/Pro, Vetta I (equipped with the VDI interface), and Vetta II.  The Workbench Interface hardware is not supported on a 64 bit OS.

Re: RE: Variax Workbench

yes  by all means  put  in the  feature  request  .   i think  we need  some  line 6 personnel   to push  this   problem  to a  soloution  as well  though. so if  some  of  you line 6  moderators   could  get on board  with  thism   maybe  take  a  big  stick  to  the   programming  section  and  stand  over  them  while  they   write  the  driver(shouldnt  take  more  than  an  hour)  then     this   problem  will  be  solved.
