I wanted to make sure that I am going to purchase the correct board specifically for updating my Spider 4- 75 amp using Monkey. I have an old laptop that still runs Windows 10 with Monkey installed. I believe I am good to go with all the amp and board updates. I've already hit the Line6 updater links to update the FBV3 board that I have.
From what I have been able to research and according to a Line6 support ticket, I need a MK2 device to update the amp.
My questions are:
Will ANY MK2 device work on my amp just to update it using the Monkey software? If that is the case, then it's either a MK2 shortboard or Express pedal.
I have an FBV3 board and it's seems to work from what I can remember. I took several years off from playing and I can't recall if it will be able to switch channels, settings, wah and volume, etc.
I'm looking for the cheapest option to update the amp and if I can still use the FBV3 since I already have it. If the FBV3 works fine and if I can score a used MK2 pedal cheap, I'll stick with the FBV. If not, I can just sell the FBV3. If I do sell it, don't I need to "unregister" it from my account or something to allow the buyer to do updates, etc?
