I also always use studio / direct option, for me, is the most transparent option but I use my HD500x as a "digital pedalboard" no amps no cabs sims, only effects. If you plan to use amp sims, I suggest you connect the HD to the return of your amp, and turn off the sims cabs in HD.....try it, maybe it can improve your sound :) ;)

4 cable method si hablas español, te puedo explicar como se hacen las conexiones

Another option is: guitar - pod HD500 input - pod HD500 send - Dc5 input - Dc5 send - pod HD500 return - pod HD500 L/mono output - Dc5 return....then pod HD500 R output to 2nd amp`s return

just change output mode to studio/direct even if you are using an amp...all the other output modes are trash and remember to turn off the speakers simulator in the pod

The same thing happened to me last night before an audience of 2000 people being the opening act of the famous group La ley in my country ... it was quite annoying and my performance was greatly affected by this problem ... why nobody has responded in Line 6 or give us any idea what to do to correct this? The problem IS NOT the switchers because you step and change the preset you select, but then the device will switch to another preset by itself. Digital_igloo or any of the experts from line 6 have any idea how to correct this situation? Lo mismo me paso anoche frente a una audiencia de 2000 personas siendo telonero del famoso grupo La ley en mi pais...fue bastante molesto y mi actuacion se vio muy afectada por este problema...por que nadie de line 6 ha dado respuesta o alguna idea de que hacer para corregir esto? El problema NO ES de los switchers porque uno pisa y cambia al preset que uno selecciono, pero luego el aparato cambia a otro preset por el mismo. Digital_igloo o alguno de los expertos de line 6 tienen alguna idea de como corregir esta situacion?

sadly is mono but you get the idea ;)

i think the best (flat) output opcion in general, is studio/direct... i think this is because this option has to be the more flat for use the modeling preamps...for me i only use studio/direct for all my applications (1-using the pod in front of the amp as a "virtual pedalboard" no preamps just effects, 2-using the pod as a standalone preamp in the return of my amp (cabs sims off),3-using the pod as effects unit in the effect loop of my amp no preamp just effects... For all this applications i select studio/direct output
