I don't know... I had some cracking first and a lot of static noise or when I've push on/off PAD switch there was noiticable boost. Now there is no boost (should be -4/+10dB) no matter if PAD is On or Off. There is no cracking anymore and no big static noise, and PAD doesn't work anymore (I've 2 PADs for Instrument1 and for Instrumen2 inputs, and both PADs doesn't work - still both inputs work well). And unfortunately it's UX8 not UX2... so there is not a lot of info in google. Anyway, thanks for help.

Hi! Thx for reply. I've heard - sometime there is given a glue to get not caps into vibration. Maybe this is it. I'll try to replace, nothing to lost.

HI! I've TonePort UX8 and since few months had a problem with noise and cracks on guitar inputs in TonePort UX8. I've opened it and found something on capacitors. Are they broken and need to be replaced? This substance is in Guitar Input Section and in Power Suply Unit also. Please see photos. Best regards, Marcin

Hi, I've found different sources about dynamic range of Toneport UX8. Some says it's 98dB. Some says it's 110dB. It's a BIG difference. Please help me to find what the truth really is about this one. Best regards, Marcin

YES! Works! :)))) First I bought cheap USB-MIDI cable and had more problems with connection than stars on the sky. Usually POD2.0 wasn't seen by any software at all. Then I decided to gamble and buy Yamaha UX-16 MIDI cable (found used in 20$ price while new were about 100$) - installed and.... boooom... all the problems were gone away. Every software now see my POD - Monkey, MIDI QUEST, PODMAN32, and LINE6 Editor too :)))))))) My opinion? Cheap cables are usually lollipop (sorry for language, but it fits well here). I was trying with friend to connect YAMAHA keyboard through cheap cables via USB and then software was going crazy, computer mause and computer keyboard were going crazy. After using better cable (YAMAHA in this case) everything is on it's place.

Hey! This problem again, but some solutions founded! I've bought cheap MIDI<->USB Using XP+SP3 newest Monkey and all the Line6 drivers. Line6 Editor doesn't see POD 2.0 Monkey doesn't see POD 2.0 Midi Quest 11 doesn't see POD 2.0 BUT I've found Podman 32 free software http://clients.teksavvy.com/~ccoutlee/podman.htm and it see my POD 2.0 with no problem. I move pots in software - sound changes. I move pots in POD and pots on the screen moves along too. Only problem - I can't save my preset using Podman32 software buttons, only pressing SAVE in my POD works... but still works, and each change may be added and saved :) Interesting is - I do nothing with drivers, cables or other stuff. Just run Line6 Editor or Midi Quest11 and computer doesn't see POD2.0. Run Podman 32 after that and works well... POD2.0 magically appears. So far, I think cheap MIDI<->USB works well and this is a problem of software not device.
