I was also amazed that you buy a new set of amp models and Line 6 includes ZERO presets for you to audition the models you just shelled out good money for. Given the range of programming talent of the general public, the new model packs will sound anywhere from total crap to amazing (assuming that amazing is even possible with them). Ultimate judgement will be deferred until someone posts new presets or I get around to it myself. Buy this new product, you will love the way it sounds IF you are able to set it up to sound like something you love. Kind of like buying a sculpture and being delivered a lump of clay. Have at it!

Thanks a lot! You guys are great! This forum counts for a lot in trying to make my way through the fog. Much appreciated.

Thanks a lot for the quick response. Since I posted last, I re-installed the firmware and the flash again. I did get the preset message which I answered correctly this time. I did see the new patches that I believe match a list for the Variax. I am surprise that you pay for an expansion pack and it comes with zero examples of what you just bought. Mind blown. I do have the new amps, although I'll need to find a list of how they are named to be sure they are all there. I couldn't find a Roland anywhere. I guess we all ultimately program our own sounds, but Line 6 really missed an opportunity to show they give a damn about their customers in not providing any new setlist banks. Over time those same customers will share their hard work on the new amp models. Pitiful that Line 6 wouldn't present even a few highlights of the new models to get us started. At least some documentation with lists of what you do and don't get would seem to be a minimum of what you should be able to expect. Again, thanks for your help.

I have the same problem without the Variax. I bought the full pack for HD500X and instinctually checked save same presets. I had already saved my current presets to a bundle. So now I have the new amps but not the associated presets. I tried de-authorizing and re-authorizing the HD500X and also re-stalled the flash. Still I didn't get the preset message. I know it's probably something simple that I am overlooking, but this is quite frustrating. Please help is you have the answer. Or a reasonable guess. Thanks
