Re: RE: Mark II Spider Valve changes settings by itself

support@line6.com — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 09:02:11 GMT

I have the same problem and it's really pissing me off now so instead of reccomending a band aid fix for it, maybe Line 6 could have a knob lockout mode in the next firmware revision. I am assuming that the Master Volume and Presence knobs are not controlling any DSP so that is fine if it doesn't get locked.

If Line 6 is to be considered a "Professional amp company" then these things should be dealt with and ASAP!

Re: RE: Please update firmware to disable Quick Loop in SV Mk2

support@line6.com — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 21:57:33 GMT

This is what I sent for a new feature suggestion.

Quick Loop needs to have a way to disable it in the system or, turn off individually per program.

I am a professional musician that plays in bands that perform for large audiences and when the Quick Loop accidentally triggers, it is a problem. It happened last weekend.

I am singing and playing and sometimes I am not always accurate when I step on the pedals to switch programs. I know that a FBV Shortboard is harder to accidentally trigger but, I don't have room on my pedalboard for it so I chose the FBV Express.

Using the Shortboard is not a solution for me. Regardless of if I have a Shortboard or not, this needs to be a feature that can be programmed by the user in the system.

This is like having a car with the gas pedal that sticks. I would appreciate it if this can be implemented ASAP. Thank you Markus

Like I said, getting a shortboard is not a solution. I am using other pedals on my pedalboard along with the FBV Express.

Have a look at my pedalboard.

Check out D2F covers Designed 2 Fit. I think I got mine through ebay. They make covers for a lot of amps.

Re: what type of 6l6 tubes are in spider vavle hd 100 mk2 ?

Should be Sovtek 6L6's.

What do you mean by type?

Re: MKII worth the price jump?

Yes, and no. It depends if you need the built in effects.

The Mk2 has a lot better effects and is adjustable. The original SV effects are not very adjustable and for me was not even usable.

The only thing I used was the reverb. The new Mk2 has more amp models and does sound pretty good. I need to compare once I get the original SV back from the shop. I had to buy the new one since my original SV stopped working from bad power at a rehearsal space. Other than that the original SV is fine.

Re: Please update firmware to disable Quick Loop in SV Mk2

Thanks for the suggestion but, that's not a solution for me since I intentionally wanted the Express Mk2 FBV so I can fit it in a pedal board.

I am playing and singing so, most of the time I only glance at the footswitch and sometimes my foot is not always accurate.

and for some reason the Quick loop came on without stepping on A+B or, C+D.

Take a look at my pedal board and you'll see what I'm talking about.

I still believe this must be able to turn off when needed just for this type of scenario.

I can't imagine playing for a bigger gig and the Quick loop turns on accidentally.

Please update firmware to disable Quick Loop in SV Mk2

support@line6.com — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 12:00:57 GMT

I just played a gig with the new SV Mark 2 112 and the quick loop function accidentally triggered during a song.

It's very annoying and it makes me look like an *** for screwing up.

I tried looking in the settings and there was no way of disabling it. I use a FBV Express Mark 2.

Is there any way of adding a way of disabling the quick loop in the system settings or, storing it individually according to the program patch

itself. Can you make a request in a future firmware update to have the option to disable it when needed or, per patch location.

I need a solution NOW.

Thank you.
