I opened a ticket on this and unfortunately Line 6 no longer allows their plugin to authorize (it phones home via the internet and they have turned the service off). They should at the least, just open authorization up permanently in some way to those who own the hardware... kind of stinks that they'd do it like this. Very unprofessional in my opinion. Because of this, I won't be buying any more Line 6 hardware and selling off all of what I have other than the Echo Park delay (designed by the owner of Merris effects). I'd sell that too but it's really the only thing I can't live without that Line 6 has made to date. Nothing else I've found comes close to that tape mode. P1 Tape Delay (free plugin) is pretty close though. Bummer because Line 6 does make a decent product. It's just the support that's a bummer. I purposefully don't use Reason versions that phone home. The old versions have most of the sound possibilities and are forever installed with no possibility of them no longer supporting phone home registration every time it loads. In my opinion, this is like the reverse of "cracked software". Cracked software is the customer stealing from the vendor. On the flip side, discontinuing the ability to login and use software that was purchased (software that was not sold with an expiration date and assumed allowed to be used as long as the hardware dongle (Toneport) is working), is the vendor stealing from the customer. Neither case is fair or right.

Yes. POD XT and X3 (and the Live versions).

I can load the plugin but can't use it since it doesn't register (since it can no longer connect to the net). Is there another way to get it to verify? I have the hardware that it comes with (Toneport UX1 and also have a UX2). Shouldn't my Toneport act as a dongle to automatically authorize the plugin? I would have never expected that authorizing something I paid for is so difficult in 2022.

To answer my own question years later. I bought a Guitarport in 2019 and yes it works just the same as the toneports. Just no bass or vocal patches.

See title? Does the Echo Park have the X3's delay sounds in it? Seems like the Tube Echo sounds similar to the Tape setting on the Echo Park but with more knob twiddling to do. I have both and have compared them a bit. I prefer to not have as many tweaks as the X3 has for a simpler life... but then again, it's nice to have.

I use a One Spot on my board and it works great. But, I only have around 5 pedals at a time running so YMMV.

I'd like to have control of the Drive knob on a pedal. Is it possible to map the Drive knob from the amp controls (don't normally use the amps) to the Overdrive Pedal?

I would like the emulation to the PA but don't want it going to my real amp. Is this possible? I'd guess this would be a dual tone setup. But two questions: 1. Assuming single tone, is there a way to skip the AMP model to the 1/4" Jack to my real amp while sending through an AMP model to the XLR? 2. If #1 is a NO, can I change FX parameters on both tones at once? i.e. turn on/off the drive or pedal on both tones. I'd guess this would be a dual tone setup.

I appreciate the idea, however I like the familiarity of what I've got and the budget is small right now. I could just plug in with the HD500 and use that but I like the lack of cabling and bulk with the toneport.

bump, anyone?

I have a Toneport that I dig for recording guitar sounds. I've really enjoyed it for a couple years. I also have an HD500 which is also a good product. I'd like to get a GuitarPort possibly in order to have something small that I can throw around a little easier than the previous two I mentioned. Would the recording setup be the same with a Guitarport as it currently is with my Toneport? Basically now I just plug in, launch the Gearbox Software and open my DAW with the Toneport as the interface. Can I do the same with a GuitarPort?

I'm considering a Floor POD and I'd like to copy the .L6T (TonePort) files over to it. Is this possible?

Bummer! So all of the L6T files I have won't do anything with this HD? If so, that's life I guess! What about the XT series? Would those work? The goal is to take all the user UX2 Sounds and copy them to banks on a POD.

I have been using a UX2 and KB37 for years now and have lots of my sounds stored on the computer. I'd like to get those same tones (or similar) on the HD500. Is this possible and if so how would I do it? Side note, can this be done with any of the other PODs? thanks!
