Hi all,

I have a JTV-69 and a POD HD500, i have tried today to update the variax to 1.9 firmware, the software (mac) and the pod hd500 does not recognize the variax connected by vdi cable, there was no sound also (i was surprised, a didn't used the variax for a few days, at last use everything was fine). I connected the variax also with normal guitar cable (vdi still connected), i had sound, variax can change models and tunings. In conclusion vdi cable provided power for variax, but no sound was transmitted (i always use vdi cable, never the battery).

It is possible for cablel to transmit only partial information? How can i verify the cable? Is there some settings in pod hd500 limiting the vdi inteface (i know nothing of that kind)?

The idea is: i want to identify the problem before ordering a new cable.

Thank you in advance.
