Yes we would like to get an official answer please:

"Will POD HD 300/400 users get the 2.02 update?"

"If YES, will it take more than a month or two?"

"If not 2.02 exactly, please specify what's being developped."

Thank you very much.

Skewed sense of entitlement? Pal, I don't think any of us would be clamoring for this update if Line 6 hadn't said that 2.0 was for "all POD HD units". That creates customer expectation, and when those promised expectations aren't met, well, people have a right to disappointment.

At this point no one has said it isn't for all HD Units. As has been explained several times, those with the 300/400 and even the HD Pro will have to wait a bit longer till their actual Firmware is ready. The customer expectation turns into a skewed sense of enitlement when customers start demanding things that obviously are not ready for them yet.

And the idea made jokingly about this release being released now as a beta test probably isn't far off because if some unforseen issues arise now with the HD500 units, then it means they can fix them before taking it to the other units.

If it really bothers people THAT much and they have such a thirst for more features then it beats me why they didn't just pony up and buy the HD500 in the first place.....

Owners of these units have exactly the same rights to future upgrades as HD500 users

 

I am pretty sure that no matter which HD we decide to purchase we have only the rights to free upgrades that Line 6 chooses to allow us.

My experience has been that eventually Line 6 stops offering free upgrades for  their products (probably when it is no longer profitable to do so). We are all fortunate to be given these freebies for as long as Line 6 chooses to keep them coming

So you are basically saying that as a 300 owner who paid a large sum of money for less features, I should consider myself lucky that Line 6 is supporting it at all?  

That is exactly how I feel, lucky that Line 6 is giving me these free updates with stuff they never said they were going to give me when I bought my Pod, stuff I don't really need to enjoy the Pod but that just makes the experience a little nicer.

For what it is worth I also consider myself lucky to be able to afford a Pod HD, lucky that the Pod HD even exists, lucky that I have the leisure time required to use the Pod HD and come here to get info on it, lucky to be a guitar player in this day and age when it seems anything is possible and sounds that were once out of reach for the common man are now inexpensive and easy to access and practically fall from the heavens into my lap at every turn.

But that's just me

Based on past history I would expect everything but the Variax-related stuff will be included in the HD300/400 update.

This will include the Cab deep edit parameters. The vocal pre-amp is included with the EQs in the HD500, so assuming that association is maintained I would expect to see it in the FX1 block.

Hmmm... I checked it last night and it was there - just checked again and it is still there.

Good to know.  It wasn't showing up this morning.
