coreyhchan Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Can the VDI cable that comes with the Variax guitars be used for connecting to a POD HD for live performance or do I have to have a VDI cable with the shielded connector on both ends?

Charlie_Watt Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 It can be used but it's not really up to the task. Get yourself a quality cable to gig with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 you really don't want to use that cable... its crazy short and buying a cable with the correct ends on it is much less expensive than replacing or servicing your gear because of damaged ports.

BigBob-Irwin Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 It does work I used it for the first outing with the Dream Rig at a gig last Saturday but have ordered a VDI as others have said it will stand up more to the riggers of the road.

brue58ski Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 DO NOT USE IT!!!! One wong pull and your Variax VDI capablites will be no more. It will work but the potential for damage is so great I would not do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
line-6-user Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I use the VDI cable at home, not very often, and noticed that the outer sheathing has broken at the guitar end, at the end of the black plastic screw-on cover! I can see all the tiny cables inside. I don't think it will last long. So, I would not be using that for a gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
