  1. Use the new downloadable Line6 Central program to update your device. Line6 Monkey program is no longer supported.. Read here Line6 announcement about Monkey retirement and a possible workaround to use it offline (don't know if it is still working): --> Line 6 Monkey Pending Retirement _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ All about POD HD500/X help and useful tips
  2. The POD HD500X provides already both unbalanced jack outputs and balanced XLR outputs. The jack outputs can be set to either LINE or MIC level using the dedicated switch near the expression pedal. The balanced XLR outputs are MIC-level only and are particularly suitable for very long cables. In conclusion, I would say that with the POD HD500X, there's no advantage to adding a DI box. If you want to connect the POD to the mixer's MIC inputs with very long cables, simply use the POD XLR outputs; nothing else is really needed. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ All about POD HD500/X help and useful tips
  3. The Monkey app is discontinued, if you need to update your device you need to download and install Line6 Central. The driver to make your computer and editor recognize your POD can be easily downloaded from the DOWNLOADS section of this site. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ All about POD HD500/X help and useful tips
  4. Avoid turning off or disconnecting the device while it is in use by any running application or by the operating system if selected as the primary audio interface. When you close the application that uses the POD wait a moment longer before disconnecting or turning off the device. That said, I still get the BSOD, but very rarely. Also, USB connections are unfortunately too delicate, sometimes even accidentally touching the head of a USB cable that is already inserted can momentarily lose the connection and crash the system. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ All about POD HD500/X help and useful tips

  7. thick pick, Les Paul (neck PU on melody, neck or bridge PU on solos), Tube Screamer only on solos, Dimension chorus on arpeggios, Guitar volume reduced a little for all cleaner parts (TS turned off), Marshall amp (preferibly a JTM 45) on the edge of breakup, little delay and reverb depending on the enviroment
  8. By "powering up while pressing the left arrow key" you have done basically a "Global Parameters Reset" but unfortunately in this case it didn't work to solve your boot loop issue. At this point I would suggest to power up while pressing instead the down arrow key for direct access to Flash Memory update mode and then update the firmware through Monkey (at this time possible only in offline mode if you have downloaded the firmware file) or Line6 Central, which procedure would cause a Full Reset of the device. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ All about POD HD500/X help and useful tips
  9. You need to use the editor, below are the instructions, when you have done do not forget to use the SEND command to permanently save the changes on your device. Copied and pasted from the POD HD500X Edit Pilot's Guide : “Swap” the Preset settings between two Channel locations: Click on a Preset to select it, then hold your Shift key and click and drag the Preset to the new desired Channel location - either within the same Set List Panel, or into a different Set List Panel. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ All about POD HD500/X help and useful tips

  11. In order to use the POD as an audio interface, the program you use to record must offer the option to choose the Line6 asio driver (other generic asio drivers such as asio4all are not recommended and may conflict with the native driver). The actual and complete installation of the Line6 driver may be hindered by the OS's protection and security system, and it is often necessary to resort to the workaround described in the following linked post: --> Windows 10/11 Memory Integrity/Core Isolation Disables Driver Installation If even after the actual and complete installation of the Line6 driver, system freezes should occur, keep the following in mind: It is often recommended to lower as much as you can the buffer value via the driver settings in order to obtain the lowest possible latency in live monitoring, but doing this makes the computer work harder and older ones may not be able to cope with the lower buffer settings. But if you don't plan to use any plugins on your computer (like IR loaders or DAW effects) during live monitoring it is absolutely useless and counterproductive to set very low buffer values and stress your computer unnecessarily, just disable live monitoring in your DAW and use instead direct hardware monitoring which is practically zero latency and costs nothing in terms of computer hardware resources. Also, connect the POD only to USB 2.0.. avoid the blue ones (USB 3.0) _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ All about POD HD500/X help and useful tips
