RevCain Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 A friend of mine could not get his Toneport UX8 to work in his recording software (Audacity) so he let me have it for cheap. Of course he did not have the software or license info so I am looking at purchasing my own Pod Farm License. I tested the Pod Farm demo with my own recording software (I use Adobe Audition, Reason and Magix) and it seems to be working fine. My question is, would the standard version of Pod Farm work well with the UX8 or should I just bite the bullet and go for the Platinum version that it was bundled with? (( I prefer classic Marshall JCM/Plexi amp models with my Gibson LP )) One other question, does the GX and other interfaces come with a full version of Pod Farm 2.5 ? If so should I just buy one of those and get the extra interface seeing as the GX is $99 (the same price as the standard Pod Farm license)? Would it work in conjunction with my UX8? Any advice that would help me get started in the right direction would be greatly appreciated ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillBee Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 My advice - register it, run the L6 Monkey, L6 License Manager and Authorize the UX to see if you are already authorized to use PF2. If not run around with PF1 and see how you like it. Your plan of buying a GX so you could use PF2 with the UX8 wouldn't work as the GX would be the dongle that would be tied to PF. IE. you don't actually get a standalone transferable version of PF included with it, where the GX goes so does PF. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right, the Toneport UX8 hardware was the dongle for the Pod Farm Software, it actually came with the Platinum Version !!! Followed your instructions and it installed all of the model packs packs when I installed Pod Farm. It even updated my firmware and now everything works great !!! Since I am below budget now, I think I am going to get the GX, UX1 or UX2 for my laptop take with me when I travel. Having the UX8 in my rack and working just made my holiday season !!!! What a great first experience from this community !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
