There's no way to diagnose that without being in the room. 

It is most likely some sort of interference or loop. 

 

 

It's ok. I appreciate your help and thank you very much for your time.

Have a good one!

good. then we know it is not broken. 

 

so....

when plugged into the computer. Does Pod sound come out of the computer speakers?

and/or 

when plugged into the computer, does computer sound come out of the Pod speakers? 

 

 

*I know that the pod doesn't have speakers. I am referring to amp/speakers that are hooked up to the pod - like headphones or guitar amp. 

 

 

I resolved the issue. Turns out for some reason my security was set so that garageband wouldn't have access to the microphone which also cancels out all USB/External input mics. Now it works.

However! Oh yes nothing is perfect. Weird clipping/clicking/popping whatever you want to call it is coming out every couple of seconds and it really stands out when you strum a chord. 

If there is no resolution to this issue I think I'll either wait till I can buy a sound card for normal PL jacks recording or just sell the board.

1st 

does the Pod work on its own.... like, let's say, you were going into a guitar amp or a set of headphones? 

Yes the pod works fine on it's own (plugged using combo and even power amp) I can even plug it into a windows operating system and use the PODHD500X Edit to create presets no problem at all.

Hello, I just recently sold my ZOOM G5 and bought a Line 6 POD HD500X instead. The way that I would record using my ZOOM G5 is I would plug the USB into my macbook pro -> Open Garageband -> Input preference: ZOOM G5 -> Output preference: Built in Speakers.

I was hoping it would work out the same with the line 6 but all I experienced was errors after errors:

1) No automatic detection I had to update everything through Monkey in order for the macbook to detect a USB input

2) Although the Macbook detects the MIC (Input sound of the POD HD500X) Garageband seems to have no signal what so ever, even if I have input set to the POD in preferences

3) I tried to solely use the POD HD 500X as both input and output and NOT even then the garageband detects the input signal.

I have Macbook Pro macOS Mojave 10.14.1 (13-inch, Mid 2012) !!!!!!!!POD HD500X Edit is not supported for this OS!!!!!!!!!!!, Processor 2.5Ghz Intel Core i5.

Please help, I am very frustrated it's been only a few days since I bought this and I'm wishing I never did.
