bayoubill Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 I am working with a new band and their former guitarist used the HD500x into the board. I have the software in my PC and looked over it. My question is - In EDIT do I have access to Variax under the mixer tab or do I have to have the Variax Guitar to use it? Bare in mind I just bought it and have it out of the box. I don't have time right now to hook it it cuz I have about 60 tunes to learn fast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radatats Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 My question is - In EDIT do I have access to Variax under the mixer tab or do I have to have the Variax Guitar to use it? Yes to both. If you have a Variax, then in HD Edit on the mixer tab you can define which model to bring up, alternate tunings, and how the tone and volume knobs act. On the controllers tab you can also assign the volume and tone knobs to control up to 50 amp and effect parameters each. For instance you can set the volume knob to adjust the drive, tone stack, compression levels and delay mix all at the same time. But you have to have a Variax for any of that to work...

bayoubill Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 Thanks for the info! I use a guitar for the style I'm playing and not getting a Variax guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuberto Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 If you don't have a Variax guitar, none of the Variax settings in the POD or EDIT will do a thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
