Hi everyone, so Ive been using the HD Pro X for a while, now every now & again If UI use HD edit or download presets the unit goes quiet, the computer blue screens & then this almighty Buzz is sent to the pod & out of the speakers. The sound just sounds like a ships horn if that makes sense. I immediately have to shut the speakers down. Anyone else have this problem. Thanks for any response

So This USB Issue seems to be a regular common thing and pretty surprised there,s never been a recall to solve the problem. Just priced up today for the UK Tech team and for a supply and fit of power supply & the usb socket and controller module is best part of £200 if this is the problem i.e Boards gone bye bye. So as it seems to be when the unit is warm/hot i`m going to custom build my HD Pro X by stripping the case and building into a gator case with 4 silent running gamers fans from a computer poss on constant run, hopefully make it stable. & sorry for the rocking horse lollipop comments didnt realise you couldnt say poop & A -1 Neutral is that supposed to be a like. Again a common issue which seems to have made the HD range the noose around Line 6 neck.

So still no Further myself TBH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! flashed it went back to factory reset, uploaded all my set lists, worked great for about a month then back to been a sack of lollipop. Ran all the flash tests the flash & sd passed. According to line 6 techs it needs a new board thats without even looking at it & as rare as rocking horse lollipop, I have the rocking horse lollipop my guitars plugged into it. so whats happening, well error8000000a, also error had to rename the patches, error on flash cant find the device after it was connected to it turns on and off & when I say that I mean the logo reflashes. Line 6 Get your acts together wether these are the cost of axe fx or a bottle of beer these are your product & x amount of buyers are been screwed over. sort it out son

It's out of warrantyour so.not alot I can do is there.. stuck with a lemon

I`ve had it over due on the Guarantee tbh & i`m not the only 1 with these bugs.. As far as Units go I love it, yep would Love the Axe FX but I`d even go for the Helix But the funds wouldn`t go that far

I`m on a rant now.. I`m going to speak to Trading Standards tomorrow as the HD Units aren`t fit for purpose or Use. After repeatedly getting the error 8000000a code I reinstalled the edit software.. nothing same again so hooked up line 6 monkey to reinstall the firmware now got code that usb not connected please try again meanwhile my HD Pro X now wont moved off updating flash.. The Ghost in the machine has well and truly F*&ked up.. Thanks alot Line 6. These units were made before Helix as a Pro Rig no matter of the price tag, they are supposed to work !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it's time I went to trading standards as these units aren't fit for purpose. I've tried to update firmware softwares crashed saying it's not connected and the units stuck on screen update firmware. I know people are saying these aren't an expensive unit but end of the day these were made as a pro rig before Helix.. I'm hazard ingredients a guess my rigs now

I don't think there will be a fix mate there's so many other users with the same problem. It's just a case of global reset and start again.it's certain presets so I'm going to painstakingly have to go through everyone.. I'll keep you updated

3 computers and 5 USB cables later I get the Problemost as a lot of other users. Is anyone else also experiencing the HD disconnecting from usb and restarting. Ive done a global reset a number of times and seems to sort itself out until i start esiting again. spoke to L6 Germany and they didn't have a clue spoke to the Repair team in Manchester UK and what I got was of the problem is your units knackered needs a new board and you've more chance of buying a new unit then you have board and the costs over £200 for the repair. Come on line 6 get your act together we've paid good money for these machines yes Helix is newer and better but some of us can't afford to upgrade.. sort the gremlins out

Glad I'm not on my own with this one then. 3 computers and 5 USB cables later I get the Problem. Is anyone else also experiencing the HD disconnecting from usb and restarting.

Thanks for that Guru. I know about the Line level. I`ll try the EQ at the end of the chain. I used the FX loop and used my Oberheim as an extra filter but may look at some kind of booster.

I 1st started with line 6 Over a decade ago with the XT Live Running through a Randall RH100 head with Marshall JCM800 Lead cab. The rig was loud. I bought the HD500 a couple of years ago and ran it through the RH100 Head & RH100 G2 Heads through Marshall 4x12 again sounded good apart from a bit of digital hiss. I upgraded to the Pod HD Pro X last year and that,s when the problems started. I was advised to buy a power amp to eliminate Pre-amp to Pre-amp interference so that,s what I did. Sold the Randalls (Big Mistake) was told the best to buy was the Rocktron Velocity 300 which it isnt a bad rig apart from theres no guts in it when running the Pro X & there,s a lot of low volume tones which really need boosting. I was going to sell the power amp and buy 2 matching amp heads & cabs to get the sound back I used to have but before I thought I,d run a test. Tonight I ran the old XT Live through the rocktron and had to turn everything down. So the Problem is the Pro X is so Quiet so on the back of the XT theres a line/amp switch with a rear volume pin, is there something like this on the Pro X that i`m missing. I`ve played with the Destination settings wasnt too keen on the studio setting so ran it back to front power amp. So is there a rack booster I can buy to sit between the Power amp & the Pro X. I was going to ask If anyone had any Ideas for best suitable power amp or amp head but more so Whats the best Cab combo out there. I would eventually move upto the Helix but its a long way off. I need to sort the output source 1st. So any advice would be helpful.. Cheers

You know something Cruisinon2 Thats a great answer & tbh I think you,ve kinda hit the nail on the head. I use the old oberheim GM1000 as extras I`ve just added a 10 band eq in loop mode after the mixer put a bit more bass on as an outside source scooped the mids & its built up.. :)
