How to activate Gearbox in Ableton Live

Hi,

 

I have a variax guitar and Podxt live.

 

I want to use Line6 inside of Ableton Live.

 

Gear Box appears as a plug in but it is not activated.

 

I clicked activate and the only option was to purchase the Farm Pod. I purchased Farm Pod.

 

But it does not seem to be the right thing. Since Gear Box is still not working inside of Ableton. I can get Gear box to work outside of Ableton but I would like to use it inside as a plug in in my DAW.

 

Any ideas what I need to do?

 

If I need to new license for Gear Box inside of Ableton can I apply Farm Pod purchase since it seems it was not the right purchase.

 

Thanks

 

Looking in advance to your response.

 

Tom

    Hello,

       

      I'll try to clarify a few things based on your inquiry...

       

      GearBox Plug-In licenses were replaced by POD Farm Plug-In licenses around Fall of 2008.

       

      So, you did purchase and install the POD Farm Plug-In authorization license key into your PODxt Live... confirmed.

       

      All you need to do is download the free POD Farm software installer (which you appear to have done on 3-10-2010). That will be the amp/effect modelling Plug-In app that you can launch inside of Ableton Live with your PODxt Live functioning as the authorization device via USB.

       

      Hopefully this make sense, or perhaps you already figured it out.

       

      GearBox will continue to function in "Standalone" mode to be the librarian editor program for your PODxt Live, however.

       

      Regards,

      L6Perry
