Very nice video Glenn, some great tones there. I just grabbed a copy of your Vintage patches. Gonna check them out tonight with my Variax. Thanks for making them available.

This was driving me crazy. They told me to stop wearing "clown shoes" and switch to something pointier. Here is the solution I came up with. These switch guards were designed for the space shuttle and are easy to find on eBay.

57 and have been playing in bands since 1971. Currently gigging every weekend.

Bluetooth is working great between my iPad and Eventide H9. I would still like to see L6 come out with HD Edit for iPad so that you could use USB with a camera kit to connect the two.

$100 plus shipping. Everything original included.

Here is one thing that is missing: http://im3.woodbrass.com/images/woodbrass/POG+2.JPG

I am sure that he is using the Left 1/4 out because it is "summed" stereo. If he plugs into the Right 1/4 or either XLR, he is only going to get 1/2 Stereo sound. My suggestion gives him the exact same "summed" stereo in both locations and I was assuming that he probably has a volume knob on his powered monitor.

If you are using a single 1/4" output, use a line matching transformer to go into a splitter like this one by ART. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ART-SplitCom-Mic-Splitter-Combiner-/281491205631?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item418a2eedff Then you can send the same signal from the HD to front-of-house and the powered monitor.

I'm Lee Steel and I endorse this product!

I added a second expression pedal to my rig and I've been programming for the last 2 nights using HD Edit. Just wanted to mention that I have been running into a problem where the actions shown on screen via HD Edit is not what is going on with the 500X. HD Edit seems to get confused which expression pedal is which and after sending the patch from computer to 500X, the pedal actions shown on screen are not what they are supposed to be and operating the pedal is not performing the function as programmed in HD Edit. Quick fix seems to be, disconnect the 500X USB cable and cycle power. Once 500X is back up and connected to HD Edit, the display is correct and the pedals are performing the correct function. Just checking to see if anyone else is having this problem.

OK, this is just stupid annoying at this point and I am giving up. With the HD set in ABCD mode, the HD will not allow me to assign any other MIDI command to FS5 - A, FS6 - B, FS7 - C or FS8 - D. All other buttons are programmable. So this still leaves me stuck in the same place I was in from the start. Without having my M5 in the fx loop, with a switch FS1-4 assigned to it, I can not instantly change to a patch A-D and have midi tell the M5 exactly what I want it to do. The M5 follows ABCD in order "one to one" as you bank up and down. Without being able to assign a specific Program Change to FS5-8, A B C or D, there is a limitation. If you switch to pedal board mode, FS5-8 are fair game. I don't know why someone couldn't have told me this a week ago to save me all these hours of fighting with this setup. L6 Support didn't even catch this.

I've had this bag since last July. Not sure how these zipper pulls would ever fall off. Maybe they changed the design. For some reason, the forum is not letting me post pictures today. Here is a link to the zipper pull on my bag. http://www.leesteel.com/l6/zipper.jpg

I have a new gig bag. The Line 6 FG5 bag that fits the HD500X perfectly. Send me a private message if you are interested. Here is a link to the bag I purchased. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/PODXTLiveBag?utm_source=Google&utm_medium=PPC&utm_campaign=none&utm_term=DSA_-_Product&adpos=1t1&device=c&network=g&gclid=CMjR54OcqMUCFVc6gQod8CAA-Q

No, at this point I only have a midi cable out from HD and in to M5.

Exactly, totally got that. With those settings, any settings, when I hit FS5, I still only get patch 01 on the M% no matter what any of the midi assignments are set for. Again, if I hit FS5 (regardless of midi settings for that switch) the result is 01 on the M5 If I change the M5 to 02, the HD changes to FS6

Both units set to Channel 1

Midi is kicking my lollipop here. I am trying to assign A, B, C, D so that when I hit FS5 - FS8, the HD tells the M5 what patch to use. All I can get is when I hit FS5 - 01 calls up on the M5. FS6 - 02, FS7 - 03 and so on, bank up on the HD brings me to 05 - 08 on the M5. I set the Tap button to link to Tap on the M5 and that is working perfectly. IN HD EDIT: If I set MIDI ASSIGN to Footswitch: F5, Midi Channel 1 (or base), Message : Program Change, Program #: 11 THEN SAVE SELECTED TO HD does nothing to the M5 to hit FS5. All I can get is this 1:1 relationship between the two units. Any thoughts?

If there is one thing that the 80's taught us, it's that you can NEVER be too digital! -less sand, more concrete and latex!

http://www.fullcompass.com/product/443391.html should be the same one. If you want to double check, just call them and they will check with the parts guy on staff.

Are you performing a "SEND" "SELECTED" before trying to test the foot switches?

Sounds like a job for the Soldano Crunch amp. Not sure what you are using. Also as to your "best so far" perhaps try less gain and more channel volume..

I just paid $350 for a lightly used Amplifi 150.

I'll be able to get ever BIGGER clown shoes! :D

That's a GREAT idea.. I've gotta go see if I can find these. I have 1 main switch that I use for the lead button on all my patches. It would be very beneficial to have that 1 button taller than all the rest.. Thanks for this!
