noemiu Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I recently got AMPLIFi 150 and am loving it. However, the default amp I am always getting after I switch the thing on is always something that I don't like. I mostly use 'Tube preamp' or 'No amp', because I am using it with a bass and running a DI box into AMPLIFi. The only way to change the amp settings that I know is through the iPhone app. Tried saving a manual tone in one of the user slots, but it takes forever to switch through ALL of the presets that go in front of it if I am not using the app. I wonder if there is a way to set the default amp and tone, so that AMPLIFi will always choose it when switching on?

Triryche Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Save 4 tones you want to 1A 1B 1C 1D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noemiu Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 This was the thing I tried. Sadly once I save something to bank A, next time I switch on my amp, it blinks all LEDs and doesn't want to switch on until I do a full firmware re-install. I wonder if my amp is defective then?

Triryche Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 That's weird. Try saving something to bank B and power cycle the amp and see if it sticks. If it does then try saving to th eother banks saving to A last. I seem to remeber another user saying his AMPLIFi would glitch if he save to A first, but I can't seem to find the thread.

noemiu Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 I tried saving to B, it works fine. Saving to A breaks it all the time. I guess I will have to live with one less preset until Line 6 fixes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triryche Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 So just for clarification, if you save to all four during the same session with bank A being last it breaks? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noemiu Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 Just tried again. Here is the result: — If I just save to A, it breaks every time. — If I save to B first and then other tones including A in any order, it breaks. — If I save to D, then to C, then to B, then to A, it doesn't break!!! So it works after all, but all combination except last are just breaking the amp. Thanks for the advice! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdavidboyd Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Wow, that's weird. I've never tried saving to A, B, C, D. Rather I have save to bank 25 A, B, C, D, then used the app to slide those 4 down into the 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D slots, and no errors. Funny how things work (or don't) sometimes.

noemiu Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 I tried saving to user and sliding to bank 1, but as soon as I put something in 1A it is a guaranteed fail on the next start-up. At least in the reverse order it worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dugbug Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I tried saving to user and sliding to bank 1, but as soon as I put something in 1A it is a guaranteed fail on the next start-up. At least in the reverse order it worked. There is a known bug that you cannot change bank 1 presets and it SUCKS. You have to do a factory reset (you don't have to replace the firmware, just boot holding down volume and tone buttons) to recover the corrupted flash. Like many of you I run firehawk effects to my amp, and prefer the amp to be dumb and clean so changing the default is desired. Call line 6 to make sure they know you have this problem. -d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdavidboyd Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 That does not happen to me. Is the original poster not running all the latest updates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noemiu Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 I am running the latest update, even reinstalled it multiple times when saving tones failed. Right now my only working solution is to save to bank 1 in reverse order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
