murwin Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 My Variax 500 guitar was capable of being played on batteries with a mono guitar lead plugged straight into my amplifier. However, I recently updated the firmware for the Variax 500 using Line 6 Monkey, a Variax cable and USB connection run through my POD XT Live to my laptop. The firmware stated that it had updated successfully - yet since this update my 1/4" jack output no longer outputs any signal at all, Does anyone have any idea what has gone wrong here - and how I might get my jack output back again?

Charlie_Watt Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Could be a battery problem. Do you have the power supply and stereo cable? Try that if you do. I assume it works fine with the VDI? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murwin Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 Thanks for your help. When I powered the guitar via the footswitch and stereo cable it seemed to jolt the batteries back into operation. Now it plays fine on batteries with a direct jack connection to the amp again - which is great. Seems it needed a power-cycle run through it to give it a kickstart!
