I hope I could do that @fflbrgst, but I bought the pedal used in Ebay. Line 6 has responded to my ticket and they suggested to contact our local dealer here in the Philippines for repair which I thought has nothing to do w/ issue since it was not purchased from them. On the other end, I'm considering of getting a FBV shortboard. But once I got, I wouldn't risk upgrading it as long it's working on my amp.
-What I told line 6 support was, was it my fault that I updated the old working firmware of my FBV to a new firmware that made my pedal a veggie?
Last night, I was able to flush out the latest firmware on the pedal and reverted to 1.00v. But then again, the pedal is still acting weird and even distorts my amp on clean setting. I hint the memory or EPROM got corrupted during the fw updgrade the first time I did it.
-If there's already an issue report from their archive, why not caution users (a disclaimer note) about the firmware update?
-Lastly, two weeks ago I also updated my Spider IV's firmware to 2.0. Before, I was satisfied w/ the patches i created on the amp. Despite sounding digital i can still hear the warmness on my amp. This was the reason why I'm thinking of getting the short board. But as soon as I updated the firmware to 2.0 (along w/ the FBV pedal), boom! The sound became gritty and harsh. Last night, I reverted back to 1.04, less effects. I couldn't help but smile again. The amp's warmth went back. In my opinion, Line 6 should take things slowly in chasing after HD sound which is already digital. To my ear, what we guitarists want is a sound that cuts, clear enough (not too clear), warm.
