Helix Looper Question/Advice to Avoid Tap Dancing
silverhead replied to Vanderdecker's topic in Helix
Thanks for the info. I guess never tried the looper again after the introduction of the Command Center in a firmware update. -
Helix Looper Question/Advice to Avoid Tap Dancing
silverhead replied to Vanderdecker's topic in Helix
@Jack310West: You are describing a standalone fully featured looper device. Problem is the internal looper in Helix or any other Line 6 device is not one of those. @Vanderdecker: The looper included in Helix is not really designed for live play. It’s more of a practice and tone shaping tool. I have tried and never managed to integrate the required tap dance into a live performance. There seems to be no practical way to avoid the complex tap dancing. If you need easy looping for live performances you should use a standalone fully featured looper. -
Two mutually exclusive suggestions: - consider placing the Rockman before the X3 Live input, between your guitar and the X3, rather than in the X3 FX Loop. - tinker with the FX Loop settings in the X3, particularly Send and Return levels.

There are settings to specify which Outputs the Volume knob controls but you need to address this at the Input stage, not the Output stage. You can use the Global Settings -> Ins/Outs -> USB In 1/2 Trim parameter to reduce the level of the signal coming from your computer. Or you can manually reduce the Volume level of the signal coming from your computer using the computer’s audio settings. Either way the level of the incoming signal from your DAW can be balanced as desired with your guitar signal.

I would ask the repair tech to contact Line 6; it shouldn’t be your job to give him/her information about how to do theirs. If the repair is beyond their ability then they should ship it to Line 6 for proper repair. And that shouldn’t be at your cost. I would also escalate the issue by opening a support ticket and requesting that Line 6 Support intervene on your behalf.

What Line 6 device do you have? Use its editor program to transfer the downloaded tone file to the device. -
Use the Support link at the top of this page. On the next page select Contact Support.

Some strings are cutting in and out when not using magnetic pickups
silverhead replied to Motx's topic in Variax Standard
That’s right. The piezo pickups are not the magnetic pickups. The piezos live in the saddle of the string and deliver the signals to the onboard computer for DSP.- 3 replies

amp models What happened to the Cali Tread in the HD PODs?
silverhead replied to bmaynard's topic in POD HD
Yeah, I don't know why the name change. I got the name from the list in the latest manual. I notice the Cali Tread description in the Gallery pdf includes the word Solo while the Treadplate in the manual does not. Don't know if that's significant. -
You're not missing anything. The delay time limits are what they are. You can submit a feature request using the Line 6 Product Feedback link on the line6.com home page.

amp models What happened to the Cali Tread in the HD PODs?
silverhead replied to bmaynard's topic in POD HD
The model name is called Treadplate. Are you sure it’s missing? -
That should work fine. There might be options regarding how to best connect the Helix audio output to the Stadium inputs.

And the caveats are…..?

silverhead replied to Motx's topic in Variax Standard
Sounds like some of the piezo pickups need to be cleaned or replaced. There are many previous threads here on how to clean them; do some searching. For replacement it would be best to replace the entire set; take it to your nearest authorized repair centre.- 3 replies

Is there a way to play backing track through the POD X3 for practice?
silverhead replied to jay_not_jay's topic in POD X3
Glad to hear it. Enjoy your X3! -
Check your Global Settings. The update will change those to the default settings, removing any customization you may have done previously. Use POD Go Edit to Restore the Global Settings portion of your system before updating.

The Snapshot Recall or Discard parameter applies while editing different snapshots within a preset. When set to Recall, individual snapshot edits are retained while you navigate between snapshots until you switch to another preset. Discard means that any edits are not retained when you switch to another snapshot. In both cases, you need to SAVE the preset before leaving it in order to retain any changes. As always, a preset is recalled in the state in which it was last saved.
-
Connect a Send output to the input of your amp. Use Global Settings to set the Send level to Instrument. Set the Dry Thru level of the Send block to 100. Connect the main output(s) to your Ruby and set the level to whatever the Ruby expects in that/those channels.
-
My suggestion: search this forum using the title of your thread, or portions thereof. There have been a lot of threads in the past on this topic. It’s not POD Go nor Lone 6 specific; lots of threads in the Helix subforum and from googling.

Is there a way to play backing track through the POD X3 for practice?
silverhead replied to jay_not_jay's topic in POD X3
Try connecting your X3 to your computer via usb.The X# should become your computer's soundcard by default. That means audio from the computer will be heard through the X3 audio outputs, including headphones. If this is not automatic configure yopur computer to use the X3 as its audio input/output device. You may need to install the POD X3 driver from the Downloads section at the top of this page. -
I am unable to open any topics in order to respond. Is it just me? If you are able to reply to this please do. If no response then I think we can all conclude that this is a general but temporary issue. Since tomorrow is July 4 and a U.S. holiday and then the weekend it may persist until early next week. Interestingly I am able to approve posts. To those who may have made their first post in these forums today - they need moderator approval before being publicly visible. Please do not repost; you will see them when this apparent issue gets resolved.
