Sorry for the delay. I googled it and it said all Shuriken Variax guitars share the same underlying modeling technology (JTV).

I am having trouble connecting my Variax to Workbend HD. I'm not having much luck with Line 6 support either. The message I did get I pasted below. Does anybody know anything about this? Line 6 Monkey has been retired. Can you check into this? It has solved this for a couple of customers. 1. Search "manage bitlocker" in windows settings to "suspend protection". 2. windows update>Advanced options>recovery>advanced startup and clicked "Restart" there. 3. On the startup screen "Troubleshoot>Advanced options> Startup setting" then restart again. 4. Option 7 on the startup screen "Disable driver signature enforcement"

I connected it to Workbench and the volumes of the 2 strings were at 0. I was able to fix it that way. But we are a little worried about what made it do that.

Yes

So I'm playing a gig in front of a few thousand people when my other guitar player had to switch guitars. Later he said the top 2 strings just stopped working. At this point he did not connect it to the Workbench HD. The top 2 strings worked when we started. I did eventually connect it to Workbench and yes, I had to turn the volume up on those strings. Anybody have any ideas on what could have happened here?

Thanks again psarkissian. I've narrowed it down to the pedal I was using.

Sorry, not done yet. Is it a problem if I cannot sign in when I open Monkey?

Thanks.

psarkissian: So I can just delete Monkey from my computer , correct?

I've been working with Workbench HD and I've been creating my own settings but one of the settings has 2 notes on two of the strings. I'm looking in Workbench and I'm not seeing any of the 12 string settings activated. Anybody run into this?

I finally talked to somebody at Line 6 about this and they said you no longer need Monkey to use Workbench HD.

psarkissian: I do have a L6 License Manager folder. It's not letting me login. Also, I am connecting direct into my laptop with the Variax interface. It is the Variax 700 Electric.

Anybody know what this error is? I am connected to the internet so...

I am unable to hear the tuning changes I am doing to a User preset I am trying to edit. I've heard people say you have to be on the Model setting of the bottom knob to hear the changes so I make these changes and save them (button by the Manage button) and when I go to the preset setting on the knob it does not reflect the tuning changes I was trying to make. Any help, please.

I'm having trouble hearing the tuning changes I want to do to a specific setting. I can only hear those changes when I'm in the "Model" knob setting. How can I tweak, say, the "User 3" knob setting I've created and hear the changes before uploading it to the Variax?
