Version française. Deutsche Version. We have created an accompanying video tutorial for the License Manager below: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=GStUee2cyz4 What is the Line 6 License Manager? Similar to online services such as iTunes or Google Play Store, the Line 6 License Manager allows you to authorize & manage all of your purchased Line 6 software licenses so that they function simultaneously with multiple computers and/or Line 6 devices. For instance, you can have a Mac computer, a Windows computer, a POD XT, and a TonePort, and be able to use your purchased licenses on all of them once the devices are properly authorized. This goes for new license purchases as well as purchases made in the past. Additionally, the Line 6 License Manager provides online access to your line6.com User Account, allowing you to reference your purchase history, register your gear, manage account options and more! The License Manager replaces Line 6 Monkey as the tool to use to manage licenses. Line 6 Monkey continues to be used as an updating tool for Line 6 devices. What devices work with the License Manager? A compatible device can be a Mac or Windows computer, or any supported Line 6 USB device that is connected. POD HD/HDX, POD Studio, TonePort, GuitarPort, POD X3 and POD XT devices are all supported for license authorization. Can I remove licenses from my Line 6 device or transfer them to a different Line 6 device? Since your purchased licenses are attached to your account, and not your devices, using licenses on different Line 6 devices is only a matter of authorizing the devices. NOTE: One exception is Factory Add-Ons. These are features that can only be used with the device it came with and cannot be removed from that device to be shared with your other Line 6 devices. For example, POD XT Live comes with an FX Junkie Add-On. After authorization, License Manager does not make that unit's FX Junkie available to your other authorized devices. In License Manager, Factory Add-Ons are displayed in italics once you've selected a device and goes on to say "these Add-Ons can only be authorized on this device". How many devices can I authorize? You can authorize your purchased license(s) to more than one device at the same time; however, your number of simultaneously active authorizations is limited to five. This limit includes four of the same type of device (i.e. four different UX-1 devices, or four different computers) simultaneously authorized. If you have reached the maximum number of allowable authorized devices, the License Manager will remind you of this. If this happens, you can Deauthorize one or more of your authorized (computer or Line 6) devices within the License Manager. This will then allow you authorize another device. You can authorize up to eleven unique devices over the lifetime of your Line 6 account. Additionally, the maximum number of Line 6 accounts that can authorize a specific device over its lifetime is limited to five. How do I authorize my device(s) for use with my licenses? Download and install the latest version of Line 6 License Manager for your operating system from the Line 6 software page. Go to the following link for software downloads: Line 6 Software downloads. Before launching the Line 6 License Manager, be sure to have your Internet connection active (and your Line 6 device connected, if you are using one). Launch the License Manager: On Mac® - Go to /Applications/Line 6/Line 6 License Manager. On Windows® - Go to Start menu\Programs\Line 6\Tools\Line 6 License Manager. Log in to your Line 6 account. Select the device you want to authorize for use with your licenses and click the authorize button. Once the authorization process completes, you may be prompted with a screen informing you that your Line 6 device includes some Add-Ons that need to be Installed on your device. If you are presented with this screen, click the Install button to proceed. If the Install button or the list of your software is missing, use the "Scan for Devices" button, or restart License Manager. Deauthorize then authorize again if these actions don't resolve the issue. At this point, you are able to use your licenses on your authorized device. Repeat this process with any of your other devices you want to authorize for use with your licenses. My Line 6 hardware is already authorized. How do I add my recently purchased software to my device? If you recently purchased software on your Line 6 account, and License Manager shows that your computer or Line 6 hardware is already authorized but does not show the new software in the 'Add-Ons' list, de-authorize the device(s) you want to use with the new software. Afterwards, authorize the device(s) to use the new software. I authorized my device(s), but I don't see anything under "Add-Ons". Are my licenses gone??? Your licenses are attached to your account until you gift them to another account. Click on the "Scan for Devices" button if they don't appear after authorizing, or restart the app. Can I use the License Manager to activate or manage RiffWorks or iLok licenses? The License Manager will manage the Line 6 version of RiffWorks, but not RiffWorks Standard, which requires a SonomaKey from Sonoma Wireworks. iLok licenses are deposited from your Line 6 account to your www.iLok.com account, but License Manager is not used to do this. Is an Internet connection required to purchase licenses and authorize devices? Yes, purchasing of licenses requires an Internet connection. After the purchase, License Manager must connect to your Line 6 account so you can authorize your device(s) for use with your purchased license. How do I deauthorize a device? To deauthorize an authorized device, select the device within Line 6 License Manager and click the Deauthorize button. When deauthorizing a Line 6 USB device, you may also be presented with an extra step to Remove the licenses from the device. If you are presented with this screen, just click Remove and wait for the Line 6 Server to properly configure your device. If anything happens to my Line 6 device, or my hard drive crashes, do I lose my licenses? No, your model packs will be safe. They are tied to your Line 6 account, not your Line 6 devices or the software installation on your computer. Your Line6.com user account maintains a record of all model pack purchases. In the event that your device needs repairs or replacement, Line 6 Customer Support will be able to deauthorize the faulty device as needed. I can't use my licenses anymore. What happened? Please understand that only the account that purchased the licenses will be able to access the licenses, regardless of who has the device containing the licenses. If you can't access this account, you won't be able to access the licenses contained within it. For instance, if someone bought a used POD XT that was authorized with a Metal Shop license, and at some point the buyer deauthorized the POD XT or authorized any other license, the Metal Shop license that was on the POD XT would be removed. The buyer would no longer be able to use Metal Shop because the buyer's account was not used to make the Metal Shop purchase. The seller would have to gift the model pack to the buyer's account (see how to gift below). Another case is a father using his Line 6 account to buy a model pack for his daughter. He'd have to gift the purchase to her Line 6 account for her to have access to the model pack. Another scenario involves licenses purchased online. Line 6 is the only authorized seller of licenses for use with Line 6 devices. If you purchased Line 6 licenses from anywhere other than the Line 6 website, the licenses were originally purchased using a Line 6 user account other than your own and the licenses have reverted to that account. The account owner would have to gift the store order to you in order for you to use the licenses you purchased from that individual. Line 6 plays no part in this situation. What if I sell my device? What happens to my licenses? If you intended to sell your licenses with the device, then you can gift the relevant store order(s) to the buyer. If you didn't intend to sell your licenses with the device, when the buyer runs the License Manager and logs in, it will prompt him to authorize the hardware, which will remove the device authorization from your account and restore the licenses for use with your account. How do I gift a store order? Use the License Manager to first deauthorize all of your devices. Next, log in to your Line 6 account, visit the Purchase History page, and click the Details link for the order. Click the link/button labeled "gift", then enter the destination Line 6 account username and click confirm. The order will still show in your account history, but you will not have access to the license(s) from the order, be able to return it, or be able to gift it again. The giftee's account will display the order on the Purchase History page, but not be able to return or gift it. The account holder will have access to all the license(s) in the order. After deauthorizing your devices and completing the gifting process, you can re-authorize your devices to use with any remaining licenses. NOTE: Model Packs purchased as part of an email promotion cannot be gifted. How do I return my purchased license? Line 6 will gladly provide a full refund of any Line 6 License order within fifteen (15) days of the order date. After 15 days, returns will not be accepted and no refunds will be issued. Please note: All Software purchased in a single transaction must be returned together. A refund for less than the full original order amount cannot be issued. Contact our staff at www.Line6.com/company/contact to initiate a refund. You must first have fully deauthorized all of your devices using License Manager before the return process can begin. After our staff has determined the devices are deauthorized, a refund will be processed. The completion of the refund process can take up to 5-7 business days, depending on your bank. Once you receive confirmation that the process has begun, you can re-authorize your devices to use with any remaining licenses. I don't see my connected device in License Manager. What's wrong? If you don't immediately see your connected device, try connecting it to a different USB port on your computer and click the Scan for Devices button. Additionally, disconnect all hubs and non-essential USB, Firewire, and MIDI devices from your computer. Turn off any other programs that may be running and de-activate all anti-virus software installed on your computer. License Manager says that there is no connection to the internet even though I am connected and able to access the internet normally. What's wrong? There are a number of issues that can cause Line 6 License Manager to not be able to connect with the Line 6 servers. The biggest offenders are pop-up blockers and surfing anonymizers. Please disable these tools if they are active during your session. Which server port does License Manager access and how does it need to be configured? Your server connections need to have port 80 or 443 outbound. Another option is to use a proxy server. What are the system requirements for the Line 6 License Manager? The Line 6 License Manager is compatible with the following operating systems: Windows: XP or newer Mac: OSX 10.4 or newer Line 6: License Manager: Häufig gestellte Fragen: Wir haben ein Begleitvideo in Englisch hierzu erstellt, welches Sie ganz oben finden können. Was ist der Line 6 License Manager? Der Line 6 License Manager erlaubt es Ihnen Ihre Line 6 Lizenzen zu verwalten und deren Nutzung zu autorisieren, sodass diese gleichzeit auf mehreren Computern und/oder Line 6 Geräten laufen können. Sie können zum Beispiel einen Mac, einen Computer, einen POD XT und ein TonePort besitzen, die alle gleichzeitig die selbe Lizenz benutzen, die Sie gekauft haben. Sie müssen Ihre Geräte nur per License Manager autorisieren. Dies gilt für Lizenzen die Sie bereits in der Vergangenheit gekauft haben sowie für Lizenzen die neu sind. Zusätzlich bietet der License Manager Verbindung zu Ihrem Line 6 Benutzerkonto von dem aus Sie dann Ihren Bestellverlauf anschauen können, Sie können Ihre Geräte registrieren und alle möglichen Kontoeinstellungen verändern. Der License Manager ersetzt Line 6 Monkey als Lizenzverwaltung, Monkey bleibt jedoch das Programm um Ihre Line 6 Geräte zu aktualisieren. Welche Geräte funktionieren mit dem License Manager? Jedes Computer und jedes Line 6 Gerät, welches über USB an Ihren Computer angeschlossen ist, ist kompatibel mit dem License Manager. POD Studio, TonePort, GuitarPort, POD X3 und auch der POD XT werden alle für die Autorisation mit dem License Manager unterstützt. Kann Ich Lizenzen wieder von einem Gerät entfernen oder auf ein anderes Line 6 Gerät transferieren? Da all Ihre Lizenzen an Ihr Line 6 Konto gebunden sind und nicht an Ihre Geräte ist es nur eine Sache der Autorisation der Geräte. Achtung: Eine Ausnahme sind Werkserweiterungen. Diese Erweiterungen können nur mit dem einen Gerät benutzt werden auf dem diese Erweiterung vorinstalliert ist. Diese können nicht vom Gerät entfernt oder auf andere Line 6 Geräte übertragen werden. So kommt das POD XT Live zum Beispiel mit der FX Junkie Erweiterung. Nach der Autorisation des Gerät macht der License Manager diese Erweiterung nicht verfügbar für Ihre anderen Geräte. Im License Manager werden Werkserweiterungen in Kursivschrift dargestellt sobald Sie das Gerät in der Liste auswählen außerdem wird der License Manager Ihnen den Text "these Add-Ons can only be authorized on this device" ausgeben. Wieviele Geräte kann ich autorisieren? Sie können Ihre gekauften Lizenzen mehreren Geräten als nur einem zur gleichen Zeit zuweisen. Sie können jedoch nur bis zu 4 Autorisationen gleichzeitig haben. Es können bis zu 3 Geräte des selben Typus gleichzeitig autorisiert sein. (z.B.: drei POD Studio UX-1 Geräte) Sobald Sie das Maximum an gleichzeitig erlaubten Geräten erreicht haben wird der License Manager Sie darauf hinweisen. Sollte dieser Fall eintreffen können Sie per "Deauthorize" ein oder mehrere Geräte (oder Computer) deautorisieren, was es Ihnen dann gestattet wieder andere Geräte zu autorisieren. Sie können bis zu 10 verschiedene Geräte für Ihr Line 6 Benutzerkonto maximal autorisieren. Zusätzlich ist die Anzahl Konten die ein Gerät über dessen Laufzeit autorisieren können limitiert auf 5. Wie kann ich meine Geräte zur Nutzung meiner Lizenzen autorisieren? Laden Sie sich die neuste Version des Line 6 License Managers für Ihr Betriebssystem herunter und installieren Sie diesen. Line 6 Software Downloads. Bevor Sie nun aber den Line 6 License Manager starten brauchen Sie eine aktive Internetverbindung. (Außerdem muss Ihr Line 6 Gerät an Ihren PC verbunden sein sofern Sie eines benutzen möchten.) Starten Sie den License Manager: Mac®: Programme/Line 6/License Manager Windows®: Start/Alle Programme/Line 6/Tools/Line 6 License Manager [*]Loggen Sie sich in Ihr Line 6 Benutzerkonto ein. [*]Wählen Sie das Gerät aus, welches Sie für Ihre Lizenzen autorisieren möchten und klicken Sie auf "Authorize". [*]Nachdem der Autorisationsprozess abgeschlossen ist könnte es sein, dass sich ein Fenster öffnet, welches Sie darüber informiert, dass Ihr Line 6 Gerät noch Erweiterung installieren muss. Sollte sich dieses Fenster öffnen klicken Sie auf Installieren. [*]Ab sofort können Sie Ihre Lizenzen auf Ihren Line 6 Geräten verwenden. Wiederholen Sie diesen Prozess für alle anderen Line 6 Geräte, welche Sie zur Nutzung ihrer Lizenzen autorisieren möchten. Meine Line 6 Hardware ist bereits autorisiert, wie kann ich meine soeben gekauften Model Packs dem Gerät hinzufügen? Sollten Sie kürzlich Model Packs für Ihr Line 6 Konto gekauft haben und der License Manager zeigt diese für Ihren Computer oder Line 6 Gerät in der "Add-Ons" Liste nicht an, dann müssen Sie Ihr Gerät deautorisieren und wieder autorisieren um die neuen Model Packs zu übernehmen. Kann ich den License Manager benutzen um RiffWorks oder iLok zu verwalten oder zu aktivieren? Der License Manager kann nur die Line 6 Version von RiffWorks verwalten nicht jedoch die Standardversion denn diese erfordert einen SonomaKey von Sonoma Wireworks. iLok Lizenzen werden von Ihrem Line 6 Konto auf Ihr www.iLok.com Konto übertragen, aber der License Manager kann diese nicht verwalten. Brauche ich eine Internetverbindung um Lizenzen zu kaufen und Geräte zu autorisiern? Ja, wenn Sie Lizenzen kaufen wollen brauchen Sie eine Internetverbindung. Nach dem Kauf muss der License Manager eine Internetverbindung haben um sich mit Ihrem Line 6 Konto zu verbinden damit Sie Ihre Geräte zur Nutzung Ihrer neuen Lizenz autorisieren können. Wie kann ich ein Gerät deautorisieren? Um ein Gerät zu deautorisieren müssen Sie das Gerät im License Manager auswählen und den "Deauthorize" Knopf drücken. Wenn Sie ein Line 6 USB Gerät deautorisieren wird dann als zusätzlicher Schritt die Entfernung der Lizenz von Ihrem Gerät angezeigt. Klicken Sie hier auf "Remove". Sollte meinem Line 6 Gerät oder meinem Computer etwas passieren, verliere ich meine Lizenzen? Nein, alle Model Packs sind vollkommen sicher. Alle Lizenzen sind an Ihr Benutzerkonto gebunden, nicht an Ihre Geräte, die Software oder Ihren Computer. Ihr Line6.com Benutzerkonto beinhaltet all Ihre Lizenzen. Sollte Ihr Gerät eine Reparatur oder Ersatz benötigen, kann der Line 6 Kundendienst Ihr kaputtes Gerät deautorisieren. Ich kann meine Lizenzen nicht mehr benutzen, was ist passiert? Nur das Benutzerkonto welches die Lizenz gekauft hat kann die Lizenz benutzen, egal wer das Gerät hat. Wenn Sie auf das Konto, welches diese Lizenzen beinhaltet, nicht mehr zugreifen können, können Sie auch nicht mehr auf dessen Lizenzen zugreifen. Wenn z.B. jemand das Metal Shop Model Pack kauft und mit seinem Line 6 Monkey seinem POD XT zuweist und verbindet dann das POD XT Live seines Freundes mit seinem eigenen Monkey und weist dem Gerät des Freundes die Lizenz auch wieder zu, wird der Freund dieses Metal Shop nicht benutzen können, da sein Konto nicht Metal Shop besitzt. Der Besitzer von Metal Shop müsste dann schon seine Model Pack Bestellung verschenken. (Wie man verschenkt wird im Folgenden beschrieben.) Ein anderer Fall wäre z.B. ein Vater der seiner Tochter über sein eigenes Line 6 Konto ein Model Pack kaufen will, er muss seiner Tochter dann das Model Pack schenken damit Sie auf Ihrem eigenen Konto Zugriff auf das Pack hat. Noch ein Fall beinhaltet den online Kauf von Lizenzen. Line 6 ist der einzige autorisierte Verkäufer von Lizenzen für Line 6 Geräte. Wenn Sie eine Lizenz von irgendwo anders kaufen als von der Line 6 Webseite, muss der Besitzer der Lizenz Ihnen die Bestellung dieser Lizenz schenken. Line 6 spielt in dieser Situation keine Rolle. Was passiert mit meinen Lizenzen wenn ich mein Gerät verkaufe? Wenn Sie die Lizenzen mit dem Gerät verkaufen wollen können Sie dem Käufer die Bestellung der Lizenz einfach schenken. Wenn Sie die Lizenzen nicht mit dem Gerät verkaufen wollen brauchen Sie nichts zu tun, sobald der Käufer das Gerät mit seinem License Manager verbindet muss er das Gerät autorisieren, dies wird die Autorisation auf Ihrem Konto entfernen und die Lizenzen wieder auf Ihr Konto wiederherstellen. Wie kann ich eine Bestellung verschenken? Benutzen Sie den License Manager zuerst um alle Geräte zu deautorisieren. Loggen Sie sich in Ihr Line 6 Benutzerkonto ein und klicken Sie auf "Purchase History", klicken Sie hier nun auf die Details Ihrer Bestellung. Klicken Sie auf den "gift" Knopf und geben Sie den Line 6 Benutzernamen des Empfängers ein. Klicken Sie auf "Confirm". Die Bestellung wird weiterhin in Ihrem Bestellverlauf angezeigt Sie können diese jedoch nicht mehr zurückgeben oder nocheinmal verschenken. Der Empfänger bekommt die Bestellung nun in seinem Bestellverlauf angezeigt, er kann Sie aber auch nicht wieder zurückgeben oder verschenken. Der Empfänger wird Zugriff auf alle Lizenzen haben, die in dieser Bestellung enthalten waren. Nachdem Sie Ihre Geräte deautorisiert und die Bestellung verschenkt haben können Sie Ihre Geräte wieder autorisieren. Achtung: Model Packs die per Email-Aktion gekauft werden können nicht verschenkt werden. Wie kann ich meine gekauften Lizenzen zurückgeben/stornieren ? Line 6 bietet Ihnen eine vollständige Erstattung jedes Lizenzkaufs binnen 15 Tagen nach Bestelldatum an. Nach 15 Tagen sind allerdings keine Stornierungen und Gutschriften mehr möglich. Bitte beachten Sie dass nur die gesamte Bestellung (d.h. alle darin erworbenen Lizenzen) storniert werden kann. Eine Gutschrift für einzelne Lizenzen, bzw einen geringeren als den Gesamtrechnungsbetrag dieser Bestellung, ist nicht möglich. USA Onlineshop Käufe : bitte senden Sie eine Email an storesupport@line6.com zwecks Gutschrift Käufe aus anderen Ländern : bitte kontaktieren Sie den Line 6 Support unter www.Line6.com/support/tickets für die Gutschrift Bevor der Stornierungsvorgang beginnt müssen Sie alle Geräte über den License Manager de-autorisieren. Nachdem der Line 6 Service über Ihr Nutzerkonto überprüft hat, dass die Geräte korrekt de-autorisiert wurden, wird die Gutschrift ausgeführt. Die Durchführung der Gutschrift kann bis zu 7 Tagen dauern, abhängig von Ihrer Bank. Sobald Sie die Bestätigung der Gutschrift erhalten haben, können Sie Ihre Geräte wieder autorisieren, um Ihre verbleibenden Lizenzen nutzen zu können. Ich kann mein verbundenes Gerät nicht im License Manager sehen, was ist passiert? Sollten Sie Ihr Gerät nicht sofort im License Manager sehen können versuchen Sie Ihr Gerät an einen anderen USB Eingang anzuschließen am besten auf der Rückseite des Computer und klicken Sie dann den "Scan for Devices" Knopf. Zusätzlich sollten Sie alle überflüssigen USB-, Firewire- und MIDI-Geräte außerdem USB-Hubs von Ihrem Computer entfernen. Deaktivieren Sie jegliche AntivierenSoftware und beenden Sie alle Programme, die auf Ihrem PC laufen. Der License Manager meldet keine Verbindung zum Internet obwohl ich mein Internet ganz normal nutzen kann. Was kann ich dagegen tun? Es gibt viele verschiedene Möglichkeiten weshalb der License Manager keine Internetverbindung hat. Die bekanntesten sind Pop-Up Blocker und Internet Anonymisierer. Bitte schalten Sie diese Software aus während der License Manager läuft. Welchen Server Port benutzt der License Manager und wie muss dies konfiguriert werden? Ihre Serververbindung muss die Ports 80 und 443 geöffnet haben. Ein Proxy-Server wäre eine andere Möglichkeit. Was sind die Systemanforderungen des License Mangers? Der Line 6 License Manager ist kompatibel mit den folgenden Systemen: Windows: XP, Vista und 7 Mac: OSX 10.4, 10.5 und 10.6 Line 6: License Manager: Foire aux questions: Nous avons créé un vidéo tutoriel pour le License Manager, vous le pouvez trouver au début de la page. Qu'est-ce que le Line 6 License Manager? Le Line 6 License Manager vous donne la possibilité de gérer vos licences et les autoriser pour qu'ils puissent fonctionner sur plusieurs ordinateurs et/ou appareils Line 6. Vous pouvez, par exemple, posséder un Mac, un ordinateur, un POD XT et un TonePort, ceux peuvent utiliser la même licence, que vous avez achetée. Vous devez seulement autoriser vos appareils avec le Line 6 License Manager. Cette autorisation peut être faite pour des licences que vous avez achetées plus tôt ou des licences nouvelles. Le License Manager offre également une connexion avec votre compte Line 6 d'où vous pouvez voir votre histoire des commandes, registrer des appareils ou configurer votre compte Line 6. Le License Manager remplace Line 6 Monkey comme logiciel de gestion des licences, Monkey reste comme programme pour la mise à jour des appareils. Quels appareils sont compatibles avec le License Manager? Tous les ordinateurs et tous les appareils Line 6 connectés avec votre ordinateur par USB. POD Studio, TonePort, GuitarPort, POD X3 et aussi le POD XT sont supportés du Line 6 License Manager. Est-ce que je peux enlever des licences d'un appareil ou transférer ceux sur un autre appareil? Dés que toutes les licences sont attachées à votre compte et pas à vos appareils, c'est seulement un problème des autorisations. Attention: Les extensions par défaut sont une exception. Ces extensions peuvent être utilisées avec l'appareil d'origine exclusivement. Ils ne peuvent pas être transférés à un autre appareil ou être supprimés. Par exemple: Le POD XT Live est livré avec l'extension FX Junkie. Après l'autorisation de l'appareil, le License Manager ne la rend pas disponible aux autres appareils. Dans le License Manager, les extensions par défaut sont représentées en italique une fois vous cliquez sur l'appareil mais le Manager vous donne aussi le texte "these Add-Ons can only be authorized on this device". Combien d'appareils est-ce que je peux autoriser? Vous pouvez autoriser plusieurs appareils pour une licence en même temps mais vous pouvez avoir seulement 4 autorisations en même temps. Vous pouvez autoriser jusqu'à 3 appareils du même type en même temps. (Par exemple: trois POD Studio UX-1) Une fois que vous avez arrivé au maximum des autorisations permis, le License Manager vous notifie. Si ce cas arrive, vous pouvez, par cliquer "Deauthorize", retirer les autorisations des appareils (ou ordinateurs), comme ça vous pouvez autoriser des autres appareils. Vous pouvez autoriser un maximum de 10 appareils avec un compte Line6. Le nombre des autorisations de différents License Managers pour un appareil est limité à 5. Comment est-ce que je peux autoriser mes appareils pour l'utilisation des licences? Téléchargez et installez la version la plus récente du Line 6 License Manager pour votre système d'exploitation. Téléchargement de Logiciel Line 6. Avant démarrer le License Manager, vous avez besoin d'une connexion internet. (Vous devez aussi connecter votre appareil Line 6 si vous le voulez utiliser.) Démarrez le Line 6 License Manager: Mac®: Programmes/Line 6/License Manager Windows®: Démarrer/Tous les Programmes/Line 6/Tool/Line 6 License Manager [*]Connectez-vous à votre compte Line 6. [*]Choisissez l'appareil que vous voulez autoriser pour vos licences et cliquez "Authorize". [*]Après ce processus a terminé, il est possible qu'une fenêtre s'ouvre vous informant que vous devez encore installer des extensions sur votre appareil. Cliquez installer. [*]Maintenant vous pouvez utiliser vos licences sur vos appareils Line 6. Répétez ce processus pour tous les appareils vous voulez avoir autorisés pour l'utilisation des licences. Mon appareil Line 6 est déjà autorisé, comment est-ce que je peux ajouter le Model Pack que j'ai acheté en ce moment? Si vous avez acheté des Model Packs pour votre compte Line 6, et le License Manager ne les montre pas dans la liste "Add-Ons", vous devez retirer l'autorisation du appareil et l'autoriser encore une fois. Comme-ça, le License Manager accepte le Model Pack nouveau. Est-ce que je peux utiliser le License Manager pour gérer et activer RiffWorks ou iLok? Le License Manager sait seulement gérer une licence RiffWorks de version Line 6 et pas la version standard. Pour la version standard, vous avez besoin d'une clé SonomaKey de Sonoma Wireworks. Les licences iLok sont transfères de votre compte Line 6 à votre compte sur www.iLok.com mais le License Manager ne sais pas gérer ces licences. Est-ce que j'ai besoin d'une connexion internet pour acheter les licences et autoriser mes appareils? Oui, si vous voulez acheter des licences, vous avez besoin d'une connexion. Après vous avez acheté, le License Manager a besoin d'une connexion également, pour connecter à votre compte Line 6 et pour autoriser vos appareils. Comment est-ce que je peux retirer une autorisation d'un appareil? Pour retirer une autorisation d'un appareil, vous devez choisir l'appareil dans votre License Manager et cliquer sur "Deauthorize". Si vous retirez une autorisation d'un appareil USB de Line 6, vous devez cliquer sur "Remove" dans l'étape suivante. Si quelque-chose arrive à mon ordinateur ou mon appareil Line 6, est-ce que je perds toutes mes licences? Non, vos Model Packs sont toutes attachés à votre compte Line 6 et pas à vos appareils, ordinateur ou logiciel. Donc votre compte en ligne contient toutes les licences. Si un appareil Line 6 à besoin d'une réparation ou remplacement, le service clientèle de Line 6 peut vous retirer les licences du appareil défectueux. Je ne peux plus utiliser mes licences, qu'est-ce qui s'est passé? Uniquement le compte Line 6 sur lequel on a acheté la licence peut l'utiliser n'importe qui a l'appareil. Si vous ne pouvez plus accéder le compte contenant les licences, vous ne pouvez plus accéder ces licences. Si quelqu'un achète le Model Pack Metal Shop, et l'attribue à son POD XT avec son logiciel Line 6 Monkey et connecte le POD XT Live de son ami avec son Monkey et l'attribue aussi à cet appareil, l'ami ne peut pas utiliser le Metal Shop parce que son compte ne possède pas Metal Shop. Le propriétaire de Metal Shop devait offrir sa commande contenant Metal Shop. (La procédure d'une offre se trouve ci-après) Un autre cas était un père achetant un Model Pack avec son compte Line 6 pour sa fille. Il doit offrir cette commande à sa fille pour qu'elle puisse l'utiliser sur son compte. Encore un cas contient l'achat en ligne des licences. Line 6 est le seul vendeur autorisé des licences pour les appareils Line 6. Si vous achetez une licence d'un autre part que de Line 6, le propriétaire de la licence doit vous offrir la commande.

Connectez à votre compte Line 6 et cliquez "Purchase History", cliquez maintenant sur les détails de la commande. Cliquez le bouton "gift" et entrez le nom d'utilisateur du récepteur. Cliquez "confirm". La commande est toujours affichée dans cette histoire des commandes mais vous ne le pouvez plus offrir ou retourner.

Après vous aves retiré les autorisations et envoyé la commande, vous pouvez autoriser les licences qui restent encore une fois. Attention: Les Model Packs achetés par action email ne peuvent pas être offerts. Comment peut-on annuler l’achat d’une licence ? Line 6 offre un remboursement complet pour chaque achat de licence, au maximum de 15 jours après la date de commande. Après 15 jours, ce n’est plus possible d’annuler une commande. Veuillez considerer que seulement la commande complète.(donc toutes les licences inclues) peut être remboursée.Un remboursement pour une part de la commande n’est pas possible.

Votre connexion de serveur doit avoir ouvert les ports 80 et 443. Un serveur proxy est une autre possibilité. Avec quels systèmes est-ce que le License Manager est compatible?

Line 6 generally tests with software Digital Audio Workstations (DAW) that are the latest and the last freely upgradeable versions. Line 6 does not test on 3rd party applications that are no longer supported by their own developers. While we use a wide variety of 3rd party recording applications during our software testing, it is simply not possible to test POD Farm's (or any other Line 6 software) compatibility with every DAW. We make every effort to be compatible with as many recording applications as is practical. Research performed by our Quality Assurance department, beta testers, and ultimately POD Farm users systematically help us to identify bugs and incompatibilities, and we continually strive to resolve these issues with incremental software releases and/or documentation in the form of release notes, online Knowledge Base items, and forum posts. POD Farm plug-ins are developed to conform to the standards established for RTAS, VST and AU and should be compatible with any DAW supporting these plug-in formats. It is important to note that the way that DAW manufacturers implement these standards varies, which, when combined with a given computer's unique configuration, may result in varying plug-in performance.

Q: What is the KB37 used primarily for? A: It is a 37-key USB MIDI keyboard/control surface and TonePort USB audio interface. The KB37 will be able to send and receive MIDI CC information and process audio input and output across the USB connection to the host computer. Q: What are the knobs in the center top of the keyboard for? A: They are 4 software-assignable MIDI Continuous Control parameter knobs with 4 soft-buttons and a dedicated set of MIDI transport controls. The KB37 can control assignable MIDI parameters in most software synthesizer/samplers on the market today, along with most digital audio recording application sequencer track transport controls. Note: The KB37 does not have any of it's own onboard sounds. It is a MIDI controller that sends MIDI data to the computer and any installed MIDI software synthesizer/sound software. Q: What are the Audio Specs for the TonePort I/O section? A: Sample rate conversion at 16 and 24 bit at 44.1, 48 and 96 kHz. 2 XLR inputs with mic preamps and +48V phantom power. 2 Guitar/Bass Inputs – use the Pad input for guitars and basses with high level pickup outputs, or the normal input. Dual analog VU meters (software assignable to input, record send, and output levels). Q: Can I use GearBox editing software with the KB37? A: Yes, the KB37 is a GearBox software supported TonePort family device. Reference Links: Assigning KB37 Transport Keys To Logic 7 MMC Input must be enabled in Logic 7 in order to receive MMC from the KB37. From the main application menu, open Preferences>MIDI Select the Sync tab Click the MIDI Sync Song Settings button in the bottom right; this launches the Song Settings dialog. In the section labeled "MIDI Machine Control (MMC)" check the "Listen to MMC Input" option Note that this is a per-song option. To make this option global, you must modify your template file. Open Line 6 Audio/MIDI devices. Go to the MIDI tab. Click the Settings button. Choose a preset from the presets list. For each transport control, change the "To MIDI Out" parameter to "MIDI CC", assign a MIDI CC (for this example, we'll use 20-24), and change Switch Mode to Momentary. Click the Apply button, name the preset, click the Save icon and click OK. Click OK on the next screen. Assigning KB37 Transport Keys To Sonar 6 Go to Options/MIDI Devices and choose the KB37 as the input device and choose OK. Go to Options/Controllers/Surfaces. Click the Add New Controller/Surface icon. For Controller/Surface, choose ACT MIDI Controller. Input port should be the KB37. Click OK. Go to Views/Toolbars and ensure Controllers/Surfaces is selected, then close the window. In the Controllers toolbar, click the Controllers/Surfaces Properties button that is at the right end of the Control Surfaces toolbar. Although you can choose any preset, the M-Audio Ozone is laid out closest to the KB37 layout, so use it for this example. In the Controllers tab, you'll see 8 columns, each containing 4 three-row sections, three of which should be labeled "N/A". Go to the last of those 3 rows and click the n/a label to name it Rewind. Name the next 3 N/A fields from left to right: Stop, Play and Record. There is an empty field two slots below each of the labels. When you click the empty field for each of the 4 columns you just set up, press the corresponding transport button on the KB37 and it will be learned by Sonar. Go to the Options tab and under the Buttons category, drop down the second field to choose a control label and the third field to choose the transport control. Uncheck the "Exclude this button from ACT" setting each time. Click in the Presets field to name your new preset then hit the save icon. This preset will be stored and available to use with the KB37. Control Garageband With KB37 In order to control the Transport functions in Garageband with the KB37 you will need to have version 2.0.1 of Garageband or later. The Garageband software cannot do this natively and so you will need to download add-on software that permits MIDI messages to control the play and stop buttons in Garageband. GarageRemote is one such software and is available here: http://www.muratnkonar.com/otherstuff/garageremote/ This software is from the company: murat n konar Once GarageRemote is installed and set up, start GarageRemote's Listener off by default) so that it can relay MIDI notifications to GarageBand. GarageBand responds to MIDI CC 007 and 010 for current track volume and pan, and these parameters can be assigned to the existing GarageBand MIDI preset of the Line 6 Audio-MIDI Devices settings. Setting Up The KB37 Transport With Cubase The KB37 has control wheels and buttons like many other Mackie or others transport cotrollers. You can get the two working together by simply going into: device setup, click on the + button, add MIDI MACHINE CONTROL SLAVE, and select the Line 6 Toneport KB37 from the menu on the right. In order to set the control on the KB37 itself you will need to go to: Line 6 Audio Midi Devices in your Control Panel and select the MIDI tab. Setting Up The KB37 To Control Reason First, ensure that you have downloaded and installed the latest version of Line 6 Monkey. Run it and verify that your TonePort KB37 is running the latest driver, firmware and flash memory. Download the latest version of GearBox application and install it to your computer. Launch the "Line 6 Audio-MIDI Devices" program from the Line 6/Tools folder. Next, make sure the KB37 is the active device. Select the MIDI tab and from the drop-down list of Controller Mapping applications, select Reason (version #). You are now ready to use the KB37's transport, Sound Select and 4 assignable real-time parameter controls with Reason. Keep in mind that you will be using the default parameter control settings. If you wish to customize those, click on the "Settings" button to access the Parameter Map screen. The drop-down list titled "MIDI CC/Action" is where you can modify which device parameters are to be controlled by the available controllers on the KB37. Keep in mind that each Reason Device has it's specific parameter CC# assignment. To access those values, refer to the "MIDI Implementation Chart" located in the Documentation folder within the Reason application folder on your computer's hard drive.

Online help is available in English and other languages HERE Note: This version of POD Farm includes support for both Line 6 hardware and iLok USB Smart Key. Licenses for each hardware platform are unique and not interchangeable. POD Farm or POD Farm Platinum iLok licenses are required for use with iLok keys. Activations for iLok keys are included with the retail version of the plug-ins or can be purchased from the Line 6 Online Store POD Farm and POD Farm Platinum iLok users may may choose not to install the components required for Line 6 devices. Likewise, POD Studio and other Line 6 hardware users of POD Farm may ignore any iLok specific installer components. All supported Line 6 devices require a POD Farm license for VST/AU/RTAS plug-in functionality. If your device does not already have a POD Farm license, one can be purchased at the Line 6 Online Store System Requirements: WINDOWS® Pentium® 4, 1.2GHz or better (2.5Ghz or higher recommended) Windows® XP® (with SP2 or better) XP x64, or Windows® Vista® (32 bit and 64 bit versions are supported) 512MB RAM minimum (1GB or more recommended) 1GB free HD space minimum (10GB or more recommended for recording) USB port on computer Internet connection required for activation (once activated, Internet connection is not required) Host application that supports RTAS, AU, or VST Plug-ins MACINTOSH® Intel® or Power PC® based G4 800MHz or better (G4 1.67 or better recommended) OS X 10.4.6 or better 512MB RAM minimum (1GB or more recommended) 1GB free HD space minimum (10GB or more recommended for recording) USB port on computer Internet connection required for activation (once activated, Internet connection is not required) Host application that supports RTAS, AU, or VST Plug-ins Known Issues: When using DAW automation to change model types all model parameter settings revert to their default settings. Work around is to instantiate POD Farm on separate tracks for alternating amp/effect setups or automate all parameters after a automating a model change. Loaded presets which include unauthorized cabinet models do not provide a graphic indication that the model is not active. The user must look at the drop down menu to know if the cabinet model is available or not. A user will never be able to create a preset (from scratch) which includes a model which is not owned. To avoid presets consisting unauthorized models, sort the preset browser's metadata by Own All Models. Not all automation parameters are available in Ableton Live's automation menu. Ableton Live is designed to display 128 automation parameters. POD Farm may not find previously installed GearBox presets by default. Clicking the refresh button in the "Presets" view will show the presets properly. If you create a preset with an amp and then delete that amp and perform a "Save As", you'll notice the deleted amp is called out in the "Save Tone As" window. This is just a GUI issue and your preset has been saved with no amp. Digital Performer does not process Pod Farm plug-in audio when bouncing. POD Farm subsequently freezes when the bounce is completed. The direct audio is bounced, but without the POD Farm effects. Digital Performer does not crash; you can still go to the inserts and remove the frozen POD Farm instance. Mac Exclusive: Clicking on a tone icon will automatically launch Gearbox if it is also installed on your computer. You need to manually associate tones on your Mac to open using POD Farm. Right click or CTRL click on the icon and select "Open With."

Q: What is POD Farm? A: POD Farm is Line 6's new plug-in software platform that will offer POD tone to any DAW. For use with either a Line 6 hardware interface or iLok dongle, POD Farm can easily be used with all the major software recording platforms (such as, Pro Tools, Ableton, Cubase, Nuendo, Garageband and more) and is available in Mac® AU/RTAS®/VST® and Windows® RTAS®/VS® formats. POD Farm iLok users will not be able to run the standalone version of POD Farm software; the iLok allows for VST/AU/RTAS plug-in effect instantiation functionality only. Standalone POD Farm only functions with our TonePort/POD Studio USB devices. Q: Can POD Farm be used with my earlier generation TonePort (GX, UX-1, UX-2, UX-8, Guitarport)? A: Yes. POD Farm will work with all TonePort devices as a plug in (provided that you purchased the optional POD Farm Plug-In License Key and installed into the device using Line 6 Monkey) and can also be used in Stand Alone mode. Note: TonePort GX, UX-1, UX-2 and KB37's did NOT come with a Plug-In license present from the factory. Users who bought these devices will need to purchase a POD Farm Plug-In license to get this functionality! Q: Can POD Farm be used with my POD XT or POD X3 device? A: POD Farm is compatible with our POD XT and X3 devices as a plug in only. It cannot be used as a standalone editor for your POD. Gearbox will remain the primary editor for all POD XT and X3 devices. Q: Can I transfer the free POD Farm plug in I got for being an X3 owner out of my X3? A: No. That upgrade is a factory bit that remains bound to your X3 device. Q: Can I transfer the POD Farm upgrade from the GearBox Plug-In Gold/Silver DI to another device? A: No. That upgrade is a factory bit that remains bound to your Gold/Silver DI device. Q: Can I use the Bass POD XT (or XT Live) as a dongle for POD Farm? A: No, as the Bass POD XT series cannot accept assets or model packs. Q: Is GuitarPort Online compatible with POD Farm? A: Currently, our GuitarPort Online subscription service is not available through the POD Farm software. GPO subscribers must continue to use Gearbox for this service. Q: Can I have Gearbox and POD Farm installed simultaneously on my computer? A: Yes. You can continue to use Gearbox as a plug in or stand alone application if you wish while having POD Farm installed on your system as well. Q: What about my current recording projects that have the Gearbox plug in instantiated on them? Will they still work? A: Absolutely. You can continue to use Gearbox as a plug in if you'd prefer. Your projects will not be harmed. Q: Will my Gearbox tones work with POD Farm? A: Yes. POD Farm will load all of your Gearbox presets just fine. You can continue to use them. Q: How do I save the POD Farm presets when used as a plugin? A: Select the folder next to the preset name, then select "save as" in the drop-down menu and rename the altered tone to whatever you like. Q: Can I use POD Farm on more than one computer? A: Yes. You must run Line 6 Monkey on each computer first in order to authorize that functionality.

TonePort UX8 Frequently Asked Questions Q: Is TonePort UX8 an audio interface or software? Does it record? A: TonePort UX8 is a USB audio interface. Every TonePort audio interface works with the included GearBox modeling software as an integrated hardware/software system. The TonePort device gets audio signals into your computer and GearBox software makes everything you record sound amazing. TonePort UX8 is a unique integration of professional hardware and amp and effects modeling software. Designed with high quality electrical components and a rugged exterior, TonePort UX8 provides a wide dynamic range and an exceedingly low noise floor. The UX8, like every TonePort device, works together with the included GearBox software as an integrated hardware/software system, making everything you record sound amazing. Additionally, TonePort UX8 features Line 6's exclusive ToneDirect Monitoring, which lets you hear your GearBox-processed signal instantaneously, providing unmatched responsiveness while you record. Q: What is ToneDirect monitoring? A: ToneDirect monitoring allows you to monitor a fully processed signal with extremely low latency, regardless of the buffer size of your recording application. This means that there is an incredibly small delay between when you play a note and when you actually hear the sound from your speakers. This is unusual among audio interfaces because with other more traditional monitoring solutions, you either have to listen to processed audio with significant latency, often such that it is hard to play along with what you are recording or listen to a signal with no processing. It's uninspiring to say the least to hear completely dry electric guitar with no amp, cab, or effect processing. Q: What is GearBox? A: GearBox is the standalone software application that works with your TonePort audio interface, providing everything you need to record professional sounding tracks. GearBox contains models of vintage and modern amps, speaker cabinets, stompbox and studio effects for guitar, bass and vocals and can be applied while recording to any pair of inputs. Q: Can I apply Gearbox effects to all 8 inputs at once? A: Yes, using the Gearbox plug-in that is included with the UX8. Q: Will Gearbox be able to record at 96K? A: The UX8 driver can process audio at 96K, but Gearbox operates at 48K. Gearbox converts the 96k signal from the UX8 driver, converts it to 48k, processes it, then sends the signal to the UX8 driver, which then converts the signal to 96k. Q: Can I use TonePort UX8 without the GearBox software? A: Yes, you can use the TonePort hardware without GearBox software. Q: Can you re-amp with UX8? A: Not the same way you can with a PODxt, but you can via the GearBox Plug-In. The method for re-amping with a PODxt is pointed out in Knowledge Base document 3940. Q: What is GearBox Plug-In? A: GearBox Plug-In is a VST, AU and RTAS plug-in, providing the same models as the standalone application and additional flexibility when mixing and mastering. Q: Is the GearBox Plug-In included with TonePort UX8? A: Yes, it is. Q: Are TonePort UX8 and GearBox Intel Mac compatible? A: Yes, they are. Q: What recording software can I use with TonePort UX8? A: Every TonePort supports the ASIO standard on Windows and Core Audio on the Macintosh and should work well with any recording application that supports one of these protocols. The UX8 is designed to work with most major applications such as ProTools, Logic, Cubase, Nuendo, Sonar and Ableton Live. Q: Can I use TonePort UX8 and GearBox processing as a front end for Pro Tools? A: Yes, if your Pro Tools® hardware interface has a S/PDIF input you can run the stereo S/PDIF output of your TonePort UX8 directly into your Pro Tools hardware, complete with ToneDirectâ„¢ monitoring and GearBox processing. You can also utilize the Pro Tools compatible RTAS-format GearBox Plug-In for mixing and mastering. Q: Is RiffWorks 2 Line 6 Edition compatible with TonePort UX8? A: No, RiffWorks Line 6 and Riffworks 2 Line 6 Edition are not compatible with the UX8. However, the Standard Edition (full version) of Riffworks available for purchase through the Sonoma WireWorks website: http://www.sonomawireworks.com/. Q: Can I expand the model set of TonePort UX8 with Line 6 Model Packs? A: Yes, you can. They are available as optional Model Pack purchases from our online Store. Q: Can I transfer model packs that I purchased on another Line 6 hardware device over to my new UX8? A: Yes. Once you've purchased a model pack license key, that key remains with your user account indefinitely. You cannot, however have two or more different registered hardware devices running the same model pack simultaneously. Only one hardware device can have the model pack installed on it at any given time. Q: Do the gain controls on the front panel control the line input jacks on the back of the unit? A: The gain controls the input level of the XLR inputs, not the instrument cable inputs (as these are assuming line level and most instruments will have their own level control). Q: What do the VU meters do on TonePort UX8? A: The GearBox application allows you to assign the signal that is monitored by the VU meters to various audio sources: including input, record send, output and monitor levels. Q: How accurate are the VU meters on the UX8 in relation to the meters in the software? A: Very accurate, with the smallest of variance between Gearbox and the physical meters. Q: What will happen if my signal clips the unbalanced analog input on the UX8? A: The clipping will be a "natural clipping". The cure is to lower the incoming signal at the source. Q: How many Instruments/Mics can I record at one time? Since you are monitoring directly out of the UX8, am I going to experience any latency when recording all 8 inputs? A: 8 inputs can be recorded at any given time. Outputs 1 & 2 are monitored via ToneDirect, with the remaining outputs monitored from the hardware at near zero latency. Q: Can the phantom power from the UX8 damage my dynamic mic? A: No, it will not. Q: What is the signal to noise ratio on the analog inputs? A: The UX8 has an input signal to noise ratio of .005% THD, with a dynamic range of 111 dB. Q: What do flashing lights on the unit mean? A: The LED status indicators (Main Mute and Main Clip LEDs provide secondary functions in their ability to indicate the connection status of USB and S/PDIF) as follows: No USB connection: The main clip LEDs alternate steadily between left and right, about once every second. The USB cable may be unplugged or the UX8 driver may not be installed on your computer. No S/PDIF clock sync: The Mute LED blinks 3 times rapidly about once every second when the clock mode set to S/PDIF, and no external clock is present. Q: What are the dimensions and weight of the UX8? A: The UX8 is a standard two-unit rack space module, with dimensions of 17"w x 7"d (8" with knobs) x 3.5"h. The shipping weight is 11.6 lbs. Known Issues: An incompatibility for systems running on Intel ICH10 USB Chipsets; UX8 will hang the user's computer system. The solution for this is to use a PCI USB 2.0 interface card to connect UX8. Record buss mis-routing of UX8 in Gearbox when recording into DAW Gearbox is remembering POD Farm 1 and 2 Record send settings if PF (1 or 2) was used before Gearbox program. Workaround is to reset the Record Send settings that were made in POD Farm 1 or 2, or to reboot the computer.

Français Deutsch The Line 6 Guitar Amp within Reason can only handle single tone presets, there is no way to load a POD Farm 2 Dual Tone preset into a single Line 6 Guitar Amp device. However, if you were to split the Dual tones and save each tone as its own individual preset, you can load each preset into it's own Line 6 Guitar Amp within Reason and put then together using a Combinator device with mixer. Just select a Dual Tone you would like to use within the Standalone version of POD Farm 2 and click the 'DUAL' button to the right of the preset name at the top of the window and select 'Remove TONE B' first, then, select FILE>SAVE AS... to save the new single preset with 'Tone A' added at the end of the preset name. Next, reload the original Dual Tone, click the 'DUAL' button once again and select 'Remove TONE A', then select FILE>SAVE AS... to save this single tone preset with 'Tone B' added at the end of the preset name. Now, within Reason, you can create a Combinator, then a Mixer, and 2 Line 6 Guitar Amp devices, each with one of these new presets loaded into the device (Tone A in one, Tone B in the other), and summed together again with another mixer. Vous pouvez seulement utiliser un preset dans le plugin Line 6 Guitar Amp dans Reason Limited. Vous ne pouvez pas charger des presets Dual Tone de POD Farm 2 dans un Line 6 Guitar Amp. Mais si vous divisez le Dual Tones et l’enregistrez le en deux tons individuels, vous pouvez mettre les presets individuels dans son propre Line 6 Guitar Amp dans Reason Limited. Après, vous les pouvez combiner avec un Combinator. Sélectez un Dual Tone que vous voulez utiliser avec POD Farm2 et cliquez le bouton DUAL à droite du nom du preset et sélectez Remove Tone B. Enregistrez (File -> Save As… ou Fichier -> Enregistrer sous…) le fichiers avec Ton A dans le nom. Après, ouvrez le Dual Tone encore une fois et cliquez DUAL. Ce temps, cliquez Remove Tone A et enregistrez ce ton aussi avec Ton B dans le nom pour la reconnaissance. Dans Reason Limited, vous pouvez maintenant créer un Combinator et un Mixer avec 2 plugins Line 6 Guitar Amp. Ajoutez les deux tons A et B dans les deux Line 6 Guitar Amp. (Ton A dans un des amplis et Ton B dans l’autre.) Ajoutez un autre Mixer pour mélanger les deux amplis. Das Line 6 Guitar Amp Plugin in Reason Limited kann nur einzelne Presets benutzen, Sie können also keine POD Farm 2 Dual Tone Presets verwenden. Sie können jedoch den Dueal Tone spalten und beide Töne einzeln abspeichern dann diese in Reason Limited mit einem Mixer und Combinator wieder zusammenbringen. Wählen Sie dazu erst Ihren Dual Tone aus, und drücken Sie auf DUAL rechts neben dem Preset Namen. Hier wählen Sie dann Remove Tone B und speichern Sie das dann mit File -> Save As... (Datei -> Speichern unter...) mit Ton A im Namen ab. Laden Sie den selben Dual Tone dann nocheinmal und drücken Sie diesmal in DUAL auf Remove Tone A. Speichern Sie das Ganze dann wieder ab aber diesmal mit Ton B m Name. Zur Wïedererkennung. In Reason Limited können Sie dann einen Combinator erstellen, einen Mixer sowie 2 Line 6 Gitar Amps. Jedem Line 6 Guitar Amp Plugin weisen Sie dann jeweils einen des Töne zu, A oder B und mischen das dann wieder mit einem zweiten Mixer.
