What Line 6 device are you using?

Just pull it off. If it doesn't come off easily use a couple of spoons for leverage. Put some cloth beneath them to protect the guitar body and use the spoon tips to lift the knob straight up.

You can't really adjust the clipping threshold of any audio device; clipping is clipping - it occurs or it doesn't. You will need to attenuate the signal before it hits the input. You could try other hardware but I'm not sure that would result in anything different than lowering the guitar volume. In either case I expect it will affect your tone as described. I think you will need to find a way to restore your desired tone through post-input processing, while still avoid clipping in the processing. Seems like your guitar is very hot. Have you successfully recorded it without clipping at full volume using other audio interfaces?

Sometimes these knobs are a bit too low and the bottom of the knob is obstructed by the body of the guitar as it is pushed down, preventing proper activation of the switch. A simple solution is to remove the knob and place a small wad of paper inside the hollow. When you replace the knob it will now sit a bit higher on the shaft allowing proper depression without obstruction.

What happens when you lower the guitar vol knob?

The Dry Out takes its feed directly from the physical Guitar input jack. Your symptoms are consistent with your HD Pro preset using other Inputs rather than Guitar. Yes?

Using ASIO4ALL is known to cause problems with Line 6 devices. It is not a compliant ASIO driver. You must use the the Pod HD500 driver that is provided by Line 6. With your HD500 connectd, run Line 6 Monkey to make sure you have the current driver installed. Then configure Cubase to use the HD500 as the audio device, and also to use its ASIO driver. You must remove ASIO4ALL from your configuration in order to receive further support with this issue.

The solution is highlighted at the top of the thread.

Yes, they will provide support. Open a support ticket here: http://line6.com/support/tickets/add.html The HD300 is discontinued but still supported.

Also, not all Android systems are supported. Make sure you using a supported device: http://line6.com/amplifi/specs/

In the Variax section of the editor (either Pod directly or HD500 Edit) make sure you are selecting a specific model, rather than the 'Don't Force' setting. Also, make sure the Setup menu for the Variax specifies Preset rather than Global.

Each Line 6 device has its own driver, so your PC doesn't yet 'speak' Line 6 Sonic Port. You need to download and install the correct driver. You can do it manually by going to the Support-Downloads section of this website. Select Sonic Port VX as the Product and Driver as the software. It should automatically detect your OS.

You're welcome. Enjoy!

No real advantage other than being able to control the speaker mode, which in your case is actually a disadvantage. Also In your case there may be another disadvantage. I find the output volume of the HD500 to be much louder through L6 Link than through the regular analog outputs. Since you intend to use the L3 as an onstage monitor you may have to do some tweaking to balance the XLR/mixer output volume and your monitor volume. You might find it more convenient to go XLR to the mixer and use the HD500 1/4" outputs to the L3 rear panel analog inputs for your monitor.

Download and install Line 6 Monkey from the Support-Downloads section of this website. With your GX connected via USB, run Line 6 Monkey. It will help you locate and install the correct driver. Make sure you follow its instructions carefully re: when to disconnect and reconnect your GX.

In your iPAD Settings you need to activate the Mobile Pod. Go to Settings-Privacy-microphone and turn on Mobile Pod. On the Sonic Port make sure your input switch specifies whether you are using the guitar input or the mic.

The Stagesource speaker mode is saved/stored in the HD500 on a per preset basis. The default is Electric Guitar. That explains why every time you recall a preset the speaker mode becomes electric guitar. The speaker mode setting is not directly visible or available for editing on the Hd500 or on HID500 Edit. In order to change the stored speaker mode you need to select a preset, manually change the speaker mode on the Speaker, and then SAVE the preset on the HD500. The bad news is you have to do this for every preset; the good news is you only have to do it once.

Your Sonic Port is compatible with your PC; just connect it using the supplied USB cable. You may also need to install a driver. Run Line 6 Monkey with the Sonic Port connected. It will help you download and install the driver if necessary. When connected the Sonic Port becomes your soundcard, meaning you need to connect your speakers/monitors/headphones to the Somic Port outputs. Also, in order to record you will need a PC-compatible audio recording program. There are many available at reasonable cost. If you're new to recording I would start with a free program called Riffworks T4 to get the basics, and then upgrade later if you wish.

Yes, you can simultaneously record guitar or bass with vocals and have seperate processing using a dual path preset. Here is the preset setup. Adjust the guitar path for your electric or bass processing, and the vocal path as desired. Just keep the preset structure the same. In your DAW arm two tracks for recording. Select the HD500 L output as the input source for one track and the R output for the other. Normally you would use the guitar path for either electric guitar or bass, not both. But if you want to use the same processing for both, and record them to the same track, you could do that by setting the Hd500 Input for the guitar path to be Guitar+Variax. http://line6.com/customtone/tone/215659/ Note that you can download and install the HD500 Edit program and run it without an Hd500 connected, so you can inspect this preset by downloading it and drag/dropping it into HD500 Edit.

You are correct. The Pod HD desktop has no cd/MP3 input. It has one guitar and one mic input.

Here is an HD500 preset designed for exactly that. http://line6.com/customtone/tone/215659/ You can customize each path independently (e.g. Set the guitar path for electric guitar); just keep the preset structure the same. In your DAW, arm two tracks for recording. Select the HD500 L output as the input source for one track and the R output for the other.

Here is some help info specific to registration. http://line6.com/support/docs/DOC-1488 If that doesn't help I would open a support ticket to get Line 6 to work this out for you. http://line6.com/support/tickets/add.html

The L2t speaker has an onboard mixer that the L2m does not. This means 2 extra inputs which are very important for your needs. You can do what you want with the L2t; you could not do it with the L2m. For what you want I would set things up this way: - connect your acoustic guitar to the L2t Channel 1 mixer input, and use the Acoustic Guitar modeling in the speaker. - connect the mic to the L2t Channel 2 input. - connect the HD500 to the L2t using L6 Link - connect your electric guitar to the HD500 - connect your keyboard to one of the Line inputs on the rear panel of the L2t; connect your Boss looper to the other Line inputs. Alternatively, connect your keyboard or Boss to the Aux input on the Hd500, which give you the option of processing that signal through the Hd500 DSP or leaving it unprocessed. This setup will support one microphone. If you want a second vocal use a dual path preset on the Hd500, and set it up so that you have independent guitar and mic processing. You can't simultaneously use all three of guitar, mic, and keyboard/Boss if you are putting them all into the Hd500. Hope this helps.

Sorry for my misunderstanding. There's nothing I am aware of that does what you want.

You asked about two specific products and your requirement to use them to control Pod Farm. Triryche correctly stated that neither will control Pod Farm, and asked for more info from you so that he could advise you better. Either the UX1 or UX2 should meet your needs. As opposed to providing more info as requested to get a better recommendation, you can compare their differences for yourself. Or stick with your Zoom.
