hi, i am having the same issue, and i also dont want to install any pod farms or gearboxes...the guitar is working fine... and i am using ableton live 8. anyway, when you say make a selection on the audio midi device place, when i select any of them, it DOESNT indicate me what rec sends or anytnhing. also i can state that on ableton, the guitar is using both of the inputs signals.and yes i have tried using just instrument signals, mic alone etc but nothing gives me the signal. using a shure sm58.

so again: line 6 audio midi device - inputs and recording - inst & mic 1 - then i cannot use any rec sends, nothing happens, there is no such option. so how can i create an audio track?whats missing here?

thanks you,this is really doing my head for hours now.

using windows vista, driver ASIO...all drivers updated tonight.

also tried with pod, pod 2, gearbox...nada.

The above menu that you took a screen shot is where you configure which input source of the UX1 that you will be using. After making your selection, the driver will indicate to you what the REC sends will provide within the DAW.

To use a MIC 1 input select MIC 1 from the input & recording tab of the Line 6 Audio MIDI device menu. This will enable you to use REC sends 1, 2, 3, 4, 1-2, or 3-4 to input the audio from the MIC 1 input.

From there, ensure that the mic is dynamic mic and that it is fully connected with the mic gain turned up. Once you create an audio track, assign it to the REC send you would like to use and than REC enable the track to hear the input of it.

I tested my microphone and it´s working perfect on my amp. I have a new working perfect microphone and ther´s no signal either.

You're certainly welcome. Sorry I couldn't help more.

I still suggest installing POD Farm 1.12. I think you'll find that it doesn't have the installation problems that some people see with POD Farm 2.51 on Mac. Additionally, PF 1.12 stand-alone is free. Please give it a try.

Thanxs for the suggestions. For latest experiences I don´t want line6 software messing with my system again (if it doesn´t work I don´t want to spend more hours searching manually for all the traces of line6 software installed on diverse unknown locations of my system). And I´m expecting to make it work as I would expect from the features shown at the product´s page (made for you to agree that is the best option for you to buy... at least a big mistake).

Can I use my POD Studio UX1 hardware without POD Farm 2.5?

Yes, you can use your UX1 without POD Farm 2.5

Can I connect other instruments or devices to POD Studio UX1?

Yes. POD Studio UX1 features one 1/4-inch instrument-level input for guitar and bass, a balanced XLR mic input with a high-quality preamp and trim knob and two 1/4-inch inputs for keyboards or other line-level gear. "

I´m also expecting assistance from Line6 Technical support staff:

"If you have serious technical support issues that other community members have not been able to help you resolve, the Line 6 reps are here to sweep in and take over."

Anyway, BigChas, thanks for your time and help.

When all else fails, install POD Farm 1.12.

The install is not nearly as tricky as with POD Farm 2.51 and it should solve your problem.
