Yessir you got it... I actually hit on to it a little bit when I discovered the HD's FX SEND wasn't lighting anything up in the loop... I plugged into the 1/4" out mono side and instantly heard the effects. Oh man !!! I swear another 17 and a half hours of tweaking and I think it'll work out !!! lol The local music store here might owe you a debt of gratitude for me not throwing this amp back at them... I definitely owe you my appreciation friend !!! Hats off to you sir and Thanks for the insight.

Cool man Thanks for the insight into the troubleshooting here... I'm digging around here, trying a few things out... I get the same results as you with a cable running through the send/return while the loop is set to ON position. For some strange reason...not through my HD500X though... Very strange... I can go "power amp" mode setup with the unit, 4CM seems ok too...but no straight effects loop style... Thanks again... I'm working on it !!! lol

So... I buy new Catalyst 200 ! Woohoo !!! I update C200 and everything appears to work perfectly... get some great sounds happening. I go through the editor app and turn off the effects loop...( which I am not using at that moment ) and WHAMMO !!! - NO SOUND !!! Why do I need the amps effects loop on for the speakers to output sound? So I read the manual a little bit and see the option to use the effects loop like a normal amp would... I try to hook up HD500X to the effects send and returns and guess what no sound !!! I turn on the effects loop...the sound outputs through the speakers, however the send and returns are dead and useless !!! No effects loop !!! I don't know if this is just with my unit but... If I can't resolve by tomorrow...she's going back to the store !!! This is stupid... I thought YAMAHA and it's subsidiaries were like the world's best and every time I buy a new L6 amp, something's wrong with it, or it get left behind in support. I really wanted to like this amp...really I did!!!

Good chance you have to install the ASIO drivers from line 6 first... I am using my v240 to record some tracks as I write this. Hope it helps.

This may sound retarded and all...but here goes: 1.) Tone Light ON while trying to enter update mode (left it alone, just let it be, it's really in update mode just couldn't tell by my lights) 2.) Clicked next on the most recent updater with the most recent firmware loading in ( failed a 1000 times prior no matter what I tried ) 3.) The INSTANT the screen started working I reached down and pressed (clicked and tried turning) the volume knob, then the TAP button and TONE and BLUETOOTH as well. While absolutely nothing on the AMP150 lit up or changed - all of a sudden the red bar started loading on my WIN1064bit screen and it finally updated and WHAMMO !!! All Good Now !!! Sounds ridiculous I know, but true story ... I was at it for hours before this ...2 putters...1 win tablet...3 usb cables...6 usb 2.0 ports...4 usb 3.0 ports (tried em anyways while I was praying LOL!!!) Seriously...if all else fails try this...it was almost like you couldn't see it but needed to press a button on the unit to accept the update like... Good Luck Guys Slayer
