  1. I have a rather unbelievable computer setup...lol There are, literally, no fewer than 10 USB devices connected to my puter at any given time. I had to buy a hub as I literally ran out of ports. Front and back, I was using every single one and still needed more. I use my machine for a LOT of different things so, yea...there are a ton of USB devices, a ton of hard drives (15+TB worth), about a million different services and programs running on the thing at any given time so it's not surprising at all to me that things aren't playing nice together. It's a matter of time when you run such a complex setup. It dawned on me a little while ago what I might have done wrong. I was in the habit of unplugging the USB before unplugging the power to the pedal and this worked fine. Before I did that though, I would close the Line 6 Edit program. I THINK I forgot to do that the last few times it bluescreened. I will remember to close the program before unplugging the USB and see if that's the trick. I hope it is! I'll let you guys know. Thank you all for the info!! And, If anyone is interested, here are some videos about my puter setup. My PC...in all of its nasty glory - How I setup my 12TB RAID using FlexRAID - New HDDs...Craigslist shopping ftw - BIAS FX Desktop is broken - ...so let's give Line 6 a shot -
  2. Yea, I thought I had it figured out...don't disconnect the power without unplugging the USB first. No problem. I can do that. Well, the last two times it happened, it happened by disconnecting just the USB. It's never set as default input for the OS. Not too sure what's going on. Thought I had it figured out. Thanks for the input though.
  3. I've noticed that the HD500x LOVES to bluescreen my computer. It's happened probably half a dozen times now. Has anyone else had this happen? Is there any known solution to this? I can post error logs and stuff when I get home if anyone would like to see them. I got the thing to record with...if it keeps this up, I'm not sure what I'm going to do. It sounds great and being able to set it all up with a program on the computer is SO much better than sitting there twirling knobs for hours on end...as fun as that is sometimes.
  4. This was perfect. Needed to know how to tell the pedal where to split off to the effects loop. This nailed it. Thank you!!
  5. Yea...I haven't gotten the special cable yet. Just doing this in the meantime. Thanks for the link! I will DEFINITELY check it out!
  6. Got my HD500x a week-ish ago and picked up a DT50 2x12 last night. Now I'm trying to get everything setup. I've been going through the manuals but MAN are they lengthy and layed out a bit strangely. I'm currently doing the "4 cable method" but it doesn't seem to be using the amp at all. I can turn all the knobs on the amp, nothing changes. I also get no sound unless I load an amp sim in the HD500x. I'd really like to use the amp's (surprisingly good) tones and the pedal more for just the effects until I get the superspecialwhizbang cable to properly connect the pedal to the amp. Is there a setting or something I'm missing? Is there a tutorial video or two for all this? This is actually quite a bit more complicated than I expected. lol Super happy with the setup now, though. Sounds great. Just gotta get it all dialed in. Thanks for any help!

  8. I have no idea why I didn't think of that. That's so simple. Just split off the dry signal. Thanks!! Thanks for all the info, everyone!!
  9. Awesome! Thank you. I'll give that preset a shot. I'm not opposed to upgrading the interface, but it may be more cost effective to just buy another one. lol Regarding S/PDIF, MAN does it seem tricky to find an interface with an S/PDIF *IN* that doesn't cost a pretty penny. I can find tons of them with S/PDIF *OUTS* (hell, my Behringer U-Connect that I have my monitors plugged into for almost a decade has that) but ins are another story. Ideally, I could find a S/PDIF to USB adapter of some kind, then run that for dry and the stereo signals over USB (I think?) which would even free up the 1/4" input on the Scarlett for a mic when I get an amp. So many options!! lol Thanks for the info!
  10. Good evening! Getting my HD500x tomorrow and I'm pretty stoked about it. I'm wrestling with the best way to hook it up, though. I'm wanting to get stereo guitar AND a dry signal for reamping in all in one fell swoop. I'm currently using a Scarlett Solo and it only has 1 XLR in and one 1/4" in so I'm pretty sure that's going to have to get upgraded. Other than that, what is the best way to achieve this? I know it's going to be cables all over the friggin place, but I'm only going to be using it in a studio environment (at first, at least) so it isn't an issue...I'll get it all hooked up and cable managed and be done with it. Any input is GREATLY appreciated!! Thank you!
