same issue here. Variax 500 and pod XTL are clean when the USB is not plugged in. tried different USB cables as well. I monitor the "mix" through headphone jack on XTL

OSX 10.4.11

I've upgraded everything as much as I can with my current setup. I like to play with usb to play along with backing tracks and tweak sounds as needed.

How are you monitoring the PODxt?

What other PSU did you use?

Hi,

I have a POD XT Live. It generates a loud buzz when i connect it to my mac through USB.

I have an iMac 21 inch i5. I'm running OSX Lion and have all drivers, device firmware and applications up to date on line6 monkey.

Connection:

Guitar--> Podxtlive

Podxtlive--> Mac via USB

The pod and my mac are plugged into the same power source. I also tried using a different PSU for the pod.

When the usb cable is disconnected there is absolutely no noise from the pod.
