I just got a new Win 11 laptop. I went to the Line 6 download area, downloaded and installed the latest/last Pod HD Pro X Edit w/USB drivers for my Pod HD Pro X, and everything works perfectly.

Did you get your problem resolved? Not 100% sure about your HD500, but on my Pod HD Pro X, the USB firmware shows 0.00 UNTIL I connect to the unit with either Line 6 Central app or Pod HD Pro X Edit. It then shows v1.04, which is the last version for my unit. BTW, I just got a new Win 11 laptop. I went to the Line 6 download area, downloaded and installed the latest/last Pod HD Pro X Edit w/USB drivers, and everything works perfectly.

Does it work as expected? I've read the Mark VII has level issues with its FX loop. Thanks!

Above suggestion should work. My POD HD Pro X and Mac Catalina work together perfectly.

See this message thread:

Here's something I do to get around this issue. Since I don't use the TAP button on my FBV Shortboard MkII, I've programmed it (per preset) to send a MIDI program change to the outboard FX unit I use to select the preset on that unit. Yeah, it's 2 toe taps - one to pick the preset on my POD HD Pro X and another to pick the preset on the outboard FX unit - but it works. Regarding updates to this old gear, the POD HD Pro X is sold as new at Sweetwater, but there hasn't been a firmware update for it in years. But no matter - I'm quite enjoying my new Fractal FM9 ;)

Cool! Have fun!

This may not entirely help, but I've got a similar setup - Catalina and a POD HD Pro X. The POD HD Pro X Edit program works just fine. Sounds like you installed the latest version of ...Edit - have you tried a different USB cable? Which version of Catalina? I'm running 10.15.7.

Anyone know where I can get that plastic strain relief "clip" on the back of the FBV MKII where one can wrap the USB or Ethernet cable? FullCompass.com doesn't carry it, and I don't see it for sale on Line 6's website. P.S. Just noticed that the FBV3 has the same strain relief clip.

Never mind - the User's Guide is wrong - it has the parameters switched between the Stereo Delay and the Dynamic Dly.

Perhaps I'm missing something obvious, but according to the User's Guide, the Dynamic Dly has parameters for L Time, L Feedback, R Time, R Feedback. Yet in Edit and the unit itself, I don't see these left/right parameters. ???

We need Knob Modeling! ;)

Take a look at the Carvin Mach 100 power amp pedal.

If so, how are you liking it? Mach100

I'm running my Helix Floor thru a pair (stereo) of 108s'. The 108's are sitting on the floor. PLENTY of bass. I've read some people prefer them lifted up in the air to lessen the bass. I've had to turn down the bass on some of my presets because it can be too much. I don't gig, just a bedroom wanker. Someone else posted about the idea of buying the 108s from a store where you can return them - GC, SweetWater (would have to pay shipping back). Highly recommended all around!

Here's a nice (new!) demo of the SPX90 (Symphonic preset demo starts at 4:50): And check out Leon's channel - tons of cool content (nothing Helix related, though, as far as I can see).

Here's a recent review of the X100:

What about the Dimension FX block?

Hmmm, didn't know that. Just tried it - wasn't asked about assigning it as a bypass. Is there something else I need to do before this step?

Fascinating! Thanks!

Great job! Small glitch: In the Delays section, Vintage Digital shows up twice.

I'm aware it's an older piece of gear, but it's still for sale at Musicians Friend and Sweetwater. Perhaps NOS? Anyway, I got it cheap, and to hold me over until my AxeFx FM3 arrives ;)

Ok, thanks!

Hi. Just picked up a pre-owned Pod HD Pro X. Updated it to the latest firmware (2.62), which was apparently released on 4/9/2015. Is it safe to assume that there will be no more firmware updates for this unit or other Pod HD units?
