Pod Farm 1.12 Plugin in Reaper 64: No longer reamping audio

I've been working on a lot of music in recent weeks in Reaper 64-bit on Windows 7 64.

Using Pod Farm 1.12 plugin, multiple instances, with my PodXT as my 'dongle'.

 

Great success and fine results until this week, when I suddenly can't get Pod Farm to process the audio.

 

I noticed when going to adjust a mix that all my guitars were just the unprocessed dry tracks.

Opening the plugin, I can change the parameters -- presets, amps/cabs/effects on/off, etc. -- but the sound doesn't change. (Seems to take a little longer to switch presets than I remember before, if that matters.)

 

I know the plugin "has" the audio, because turning the in/out left/right knobs in Pod Farm turns the sound up/down/left/right -- but there's no .. y'know, *AMP* or effect in the audio. I'm just getting my dry sound.

 

I've used Monkey to ... well, update Monkey, drivers and reinstall Pod Farm to the latest version.

Running latest Reaper.

Other relevant drivers are up to date and humming along nicely.

Searched google, these forums and cockos-reaper forums for insight.

Yes, this is happening on more than one Reaper project.

 

Halp?

    Update:

    Digging further, I noticed some amps were blanked out -- transparent, really. Shut off. Weird. Tried to turn them on, and in some cases it made no difference. In others, it said those amps weren't authorized.

     

    Went into Monkey, and it told me I needed to authorize the computer. Weird. Did so.

     

    Then attempted to do the 'REFRESH' authorization on Pod Farm. That failed, saying it couldn't write to the firmware?

     

    Now all my model packs have become deauthorized and Pod Farm isn't showing up under 'Optional Add Ons', even though it's listed under installed applications under 'Updates'. Attempting to authorize my model packs has failed.

     

    So, now reinstalling the flash memory and wishing I was in bed instead.

    No idea if this will bump back up, but I went looking for a solution to a current problem -- and realize I've had it before. Can't figure out how to fix it now.

     

    Symptoms:
    - Was using Pod Farm 1.12 in Reaper 64 v4.151 under Windows 7 64, with PodXT as the dongle. Love it.

    - Tried to switch presets and went BSOD.

    - Now Pod Farm won't process audio.


    Well, mostly. Mostly completely. The effects don't work. The amps don't work. The meters show audio going through it and the pan and level pots in the Pod Farm GUI work -- just no amp, effects, etc.

     

    Solutions I've tried (and more than once, in assorted orders of operation):

    - deauthorize/reauthorize PodXT and computer (as explained elsewhere in this thread, my mobo doesn't like doing this, so had to do the Pod deauth/reauth on another machine)

    - removed, reinserted Pod Farm on tracks

    - uninstall Pod Farm, reinstall Pod Farm

    - uninstall Pod Farm, delete directories and files left behind after Line 6 Uninstaller's uninstall, reinstall Pod Farm

    - attempt to use Pod Farm in 32 and 64 bit flavors of Reaper

    - tried installing Pod Farm using older drivers included in installation, as per suggestions in a thread by this guy, who seemed to be having the same problem: http://line6.com/support/thread/25828

    - tried various USB ports

     

    No joy.

     

    Thoughts?

    You need to start a new thread and mark it as a question.

    Since this thread is answered, it is virtually invisble to Line6 reps.
