Try removing the Battery from the Tyler Variax. With my JTV-59 / JTV-69, I use only the Line-6 VDI Ethercon cable connection with my Helix or HD500X, or FirehawkFX - no problems

Firehawk 1500 Manual is here and on last page there is a list of MIDI CC# assignments http://line6.com/dat...h ( Rev A ).pdf

My JTV-59 and JTV-69 have no plink after I applied the workbench fix above and others report success too. http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=18119.0

Here's my thoughts :Most everyone runs into this - its due to the the variable output levels of some LR Baggs Piezo saddles. Some are hot and overload the DSP and cause clipping /Distortion , particularly on the Low E string Use Variax Workbench and lower the String sensitivity until you do not hear the distortion.

The Line-6 Tyler Variax batteries have an Echip to verify conformity and being s genuine Li-Ion type for the Line-6 product. It's not Line 6's fault, has more to do with the global CE IEC safety standards that became effective 2012 and are now enforced Use a Variax VDI Ethercon cable and you don't need a battery when used with any Line-6 VDI port equipped gear ( Helix, HD500, XT Live, Vetta) Or order the Line -6 Variax TRS 1/4" Power adapter /DI box Never worry about battery life again with the Line 6 Variax Cabled Power Kit. Line 6 Variax Cabled Power Kit Features: Power your Variax at gigs or in the studio without worries XPS A/B box works as a direct box sending your signal to your amp or mixer Includes 9V power adapter to power XPS and your Variax

Let me know how you make out FWIW - I already host Line-6 Variax Patch sharing here: http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?board=138.0 and could add a similar patch sharing area to the existing Firehawk 1500 area here: http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?board=214.0 we use google to search "vguitarforums: Variax Gretsch" http://bfy.tw/5x9z http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=18149.0

Id pay $999, but only if the channel count was 9 channel minimum ( 1 channel for Mag PU, 1 channel for existing Variax Modeling, add another 6 channels for each string, one bi-di AES67/ OSC / MIDI control channel , and be "plug & play" infratructure ready for a future next gen version of Variax with individual string processing definable by the user.

Similar to the Godin xtSA ( pic below) , I added a Super-Vee Mag-Lok to my JTV-69 to help improve sustain - details here: JTV-69 Tremolo Setup http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=9371.0

If your gig requires swift change to Classical Nylon model, consider a different tool http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=17683.msg126185#msg126185

afaik - no plans for Firehawk Editor for Win / OSX.

Use Line-6 Monkey to update the JTV Firmware. If the JTV firmware is lower than 2.00, then use original Workbench app the more recent "Workbench HD" app requires Tyler Variax have firmware 2.0 (or higher) installed.

Add a small Mixer - yes

I own five Variax's of different generations and luckily none of them suffer any low E "plink" problem

I have ghost piezo on my Variax 600 and these ruined the Variax DSP alt tunings - with dramatically worse warbling
