pretty much agree... should have been a "revision 2" sticker slapped on the box or something else simple like.

Exactly. it's more like the same thing with revision 2 hardware. it does serve the purpose of making it "new" again... as in resets the timer for the end of life... I think we'll see a few more years of updates before it's retired.

cool... you never know... sometimes its a simple detail that gets missed. i would make sure you have 1/4" plugged into the guitar... and also i use a regular ethernet cable. the variax cable that shipped with my interface never worked right!

just adding that the noisegate is sort of a bonus effect, because it can work in addition with any of the other stomp models.

check the pins in the variax socket... both sides... try a different ethernet cable.. and make sure you are using the older workbench software and not workbench HD.

YOU HAVE TO USE THE INTERFACE THAT CAME WITH YOUR GUITAR, NOT THE POD. (intentional CAPS... i think many people are missing this important detail.)

any upgrades to the "x" models will also happen to the non "x" models... the refreshed models make it more likely that we'll have updates not less likely... being the new/current release.

yes, they have receptacles made for that purpose.

don't use the cable that came with your JTV.... its really short.. but besides that it onle protects on end of the cable.. a proper VDI will have that protective neutriks cover on both ends.

You don't need a DT to do what you're trying to do... all of that is already built into the pod.

you have to hit enter after you change it

Oh no he di'nt! :rolleyes:

pod farm has capabilities that cannot be matched by any of the pods or amps.... such as multiple stomps from the same category and flexible routing... so as was already pointed out... not possible and never will be... the original devices are setup as they are because of the limitations of the hardware.... there's no getting around it.

I've not opened one, but i'm pretty confident that they are machine/pressed/soldered to the board without any sort of interchangeable socket. be easier to replace the main board in it's entirety... probably cost nearly as much as the whole unit.... if it means that much to you... sell the pro and put the bucks towards the pro x... then you'll do a little better and end up with a warranty.

great... now take your axe fx.... and..... haha... just kidding :D

if you only knew, the work i do all day long.... in addition to what i do here for FUN.... I'll spare you the resume... but trust me.. i have a day job. :)

gearbox plugin is no longer supported, you need to get pod farm 1 (same tones different interface) here is a video regarding offline activation: http://line6.com/support/page/kb/_/computer-based-recording/computer-audio-set-up-and-troubleshooting/transferring-model-packs-and-hardware-pod-farm-r171

No, but they are on the pod HD's

uh huh

I get that his approach was a little bit over the top.... but he had a legitimate question... everyone be nice :)

just take a small bit of paper ... ball it up and put it in the knob... making it so it won't go down far enough to get stuck.

if i recall correctly that setting is elsewhere in syspref not the line6 app. don't recall specifics though.

I haven't done any side by side on the unit defaults... since i immediately started changing things... but i was able to load my 500 tones to the prox without any notable differences. I don't tend to use the panning functions enough to answer those questions. as far as conversions go... my understanding is that they don't want to support conversion... because the units might not be the same forever... for example, there was a period of time when the 300 had models that the 500 didn't etc.... they don't explicitly deny the ability to convert from one to the other... which is a whole lot better than nothing! when they are testing and modeling, they don't simply go for a tone... they model everything down to knob behavior etc.... and in some cases they may make adjustments that will allow you to exceed what the real amp is capable of while still being able to get all the sounds of the real amp... examples of this would be a drive knob on the fender models, and the cut knob on the AC models... (i think... don't recall super specifics) some adjustments they allow would not easily be done to the real model (deep edit parameters) the 300/400 vs the 500 could be very different because of the differences in the software... some software functions on the 500 were external switches on the 300/400 and then you have things such as the variable z not being available to the 300/400 comparing the 300/400 to the 500/bean pro etc is like comparing granny smiths to red delicious... both apples but they aren't from the same tree.

fixed it for you: where do you put the tube compressor? in the signal chain. :D

yeah as others stated no need to apologize... the forum is to share opinions etc... i certainly don't agree with many.... but at least i get to see what those opinions are so that i can quietly make fun of them when noone is looking :blink: oops did i say that outloud? :lol:
