There is no bypass switch that I can see. You could either just turn off all of the effects or get an A/B box.

If there are Windows 7 versions of those, they should probably work with Windows 10.

Here's a link to some things that may help you: Dave

Gearbox still works for me on Windows 10.

Zareh: You should have an installer file for your model packs. If not you should be able to re-download it from your Line6 account. I have the Classic Collector Model Packs and the installer for that is called Classic-Effects-Installer. You should have something similar perhaps in your download folder. You should also be backing up your effects settings using the Line6 Monkey. Otherwise I suggest you contact Line6 technical support. https://line6.com/support/tickets/

Make sure you have the latest version of the driver for Windows 10. https://line6.com/software/index.html Version 4.2.7.7 Released 6/11/19 Also, run the Line6 License Manager and go to My Account and make sure your Model Packs are listed. Depending on how you switched to WIndows 10, you may need to re-install/register the Model Packs. Dave

You should be plugging it into a USB port on your computer or a powered hub, but not an unpowered hub. If that doesn't work, try a different USB cable.

You can go to Home Depot and get an outlet tester. It looks like a plug with 3 LEDs on it and you plug it in and it will light up and tell you if the outlet is grounded and wired properly. They cost about $5, but it is well worth it.

Use the Stomp section for your distortion channel. The Stomp has effects for Fuzz, Distortion and Overdrive along with Compression, Tube Drive, Synth and Filter effects.

I believe you can, however, you have to make sure you have the correct cable. The Pocket Pod is 9v DC with the Tip (center) being Negative. The outer ring is called the barrel. Make sure you have the polarity correct or you could damage the Pod. According to the Voodoo Labs manual: Almost all guitar pedal effects use a center negative barrel jack for power. This is considered standard polarity. Barrel jacks wired for center positive are considered reversed polarity. You can power reversed polarity effects with a Pedal Power by using the correct reversed polarity cable. It doesn’t matter that the effect is negative ground or positive ground, both types can be wired for either polarity. The black barrel cables included with your Pedal Power 2 Plus are standard polarity center negative. The 3.5mm mini plug is tip positive, which is also standard for pedals which use this connector. I find that last sentence confusing so be sure to read your manual carefully before plugging it in.

I think what you're looking for is Gearbox. There isn't a WIndows10 version, but the Windows7 version should probably work. I run it on Windows 10. It's too bad Line6 doesn't keep their software up-to-date.

Doesn't sound like it's working fine to me at all. :) Try the Edit Buffer Initialization with the following steps: 1. Turn off the POD 2. Turn on the POD while holding down the Save and Edit buttons simultaneously 3. The POD's LCD screen should display Init Edit Buffer 4. Push the Output mode button 5. Turn the Select / Select Page knob one click to the right 6. Turn the Effect Tweak / Change Value knob to the left or right adjusting the contrast. If that does not help, please try re-installing the flash memory on the PODxt device using the instructions in the following link: Pod xt Series: Factory Reset, Reflash, and Firmware Updates If this does not solve the issue for you please locate your local Service Center for repair.

Is the cable you are using a shielded cable or one you made yourself? You might also want to try a TRS cable. By the way, check the manual, but the manual for the PodXTLive says the Aux Input is a mono, unbalanced connection. My guess is the PodXTPro is the same.l

Check your USB connection to the POD XT. If Gearbox is running, click on View Hardware Info. You may want to reinstall Gearbox. Not sure why it's looking for those files on your desktop. Also, run Line6 Monkey to make sure you have the latest firmware and software on your POD XT.

The instructions I have are: Power off Put petal to toe position Hold down Bank Up and power up. Wait a few seconds Press the Amp button Pedal to heel position, then all the way forward until the Wah light turns on Wait 10 seconds, then power off. Power on. If that doesn't work, reflash your memory using Line6 Monkey and retry.

Try Line6 Monkey or Gearbox available on the Line6 site.

It should be on a sticker on the back panel. If it's not there, it's either worn off or it could mean the unit was stolen. You might want to contact Line6 support. This forum is user supported.

Did you run the Line 6 License Manager? That will show you what you have.

Is the POD listed in your Windows Device Manager when you connect the USB cable? If not, then the USB to MIDI cable is likely incompatible with Windows10. You need to find a MIDI interface that is compatible with Windows10. If the description doesn't specifically say it works with Windows10, you can bet it isn't.

Try using the Gearbox program if that is still available from Line6. It may not work without a USB connection though.

There are two analog outputs on the UX1 that you can use to plug into an amplifier and speaker. Bluetooth would not be good because it would have a slight delay in the sound which would make it difficult to work with. Besides bluetooth headsets are not designed to handle the levels that an instrument produces.

For example, on my go to patch I use the Citrus model, with the Screamer stomp set at 35% Drive, 35% Gain and 50% Tone. A little overdrive or distortion goes a long way.

No. You're either doing something wrong or you just don't like the effects. Every effect can be modified to your liking, but you have to change the settings. If not, maybe it's not for you.

The dot tells you where the knob was set the last time it was saved. There is no way to know if that's the factory setting or a user setting. To reset to factory setting, read this link:

I recommend ordering a new power supply from Line 6, if one is available. DC supplies not only have to have the correct voltage, but also the correct polarity. If it's not, you can damage your unit.
