When I run the M5 in true bypas, in the eff. loop it pops quite loud the first time I activate an effect, and then the popping kinda gets lower the more I use it. But it sure makes a sound. Running it in the other mode (not true bypass) do not make this sound. Also, when activating an effect the M5 increases the volume/output, not sure if this also is a true bypass issue, havent tried the other mode yet. Anyone else experiencing this?

Ok, when accessing the output menu for either Direct, or 2x12 4x12 etc. it wont change the default setting. When turning the Effects Tweak knob nothing happens. I would like to run the POD XT in the eff. loop of my amp, but then I have to change this setting, so what do I do, can you change this through the Edit program in the computer instead? Omg, just found this: To give you great sound through the headphones, your PODxt automatically switches to Studio Mode whenever headphones are connected (for more on Studio Mode, see “What are you connecting to?†on page 3•2). Well sure enough, I have the earphones connected... Guess I have to wear the stupido hat this weekend :D Didnt find this in the paper manual though, just the one on-line. thanx / Richard

Yea thats exactly what it is, loud bursts of white noise. I'll check the thread, thanx m8! / Richard

I searched through the forum but couldnt find any answers to this. When I run my PODxt through my computer I get a random really loud noise from time to time. I searched the web and found others with the same issue. The thing is that the noise only appears when I play something in the background, i.e. Spotify or Youtube. When I play thorugh the PODxt with no "background music" it is all good. I have the PODxt connected through USB, guitar and headphones plugged in to the POD. That means that all the computer-sound is going through the PODxt. I am running the latest drivers, and the computer is pretty much a clean install. any advice? brgds / Richard
