Line 6 sucks. I have a problem every time I try to do anything with the HD500x. I've used it like 3 times live and a couple times for recording, and every time its a multi-day process to figure out how to get it going. So far today, I've got 3 separate errors (don't remember the names of them) and the Monkey installer needs updated, but every time I do that it just takes me to the home page of the line 6 website, which is of no use at all. Spent 400 bucks on this thing and I can't get it to function. What a waste of money.

So I have the HD500x and am running it in conjunction with a Peavey 6505+. I do not wish to emulate tone using the amp models provided for me in the HD500x pedalboard, which is why I am in the Peavey forum and not a Line 6 forum. I am trying the four cable method and am getting absolutely no signal from the guitar. I thought there was something wrong with the way I connected the cables but my other guitarist is plugged in the same exact way. The only difference is that he is using the Pod HDpro in conjunction with Line 6 FPV Shortboard. The signal chain is as such: Guitar > PodHD500x's "GUITAR IN" PodHD500x's "FX SEND" > Peavey 6505+'s "INPUT" Peavey 6505's "FX RETURN > PodHD500x's "1/4" OUT" Peavey 6505+'s "FX SEND" > PodHD500x's "FX RETURN" The FX Loop in the PodHD500x pedalboard is also activated and located on the far right. I have also tried putting in to the far left but to no avail. So this leads me to believe that the PodHD500x is impossible to bypass whereas the other Line6 products allow for such. If anybody has a solution, I would greatly appreciate it. \m/
