simbo Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Hi Guys , I seem to be on here rather a lot, but what it is when I am changing patches with the foot switches on the pod HD500 I am getting a bad crackle through the cab of the dt25 on the change. Is this normal I just seem to have noticed it. It just happens on the initial change and I think if you where playing live it wood stand out like a sore thumb.

simbo Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 I have narrowed the problem down to the line 6 link connection, I have done this by using the 4 cable connection and everything is fine. The problem being now is how do I check if its the pod hd or the dt25 that's the problem, anyone got any thoughts on the issue. simbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 the issue is most likely the cable that you're using then.... try a digital XLR cable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jws1982 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 +1 try a different XLR cable, and make sure the firmware is up to date on both the pod and amp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simbo Posted June 26, 2013 Author Share Posted June 26, 2013 Hi, yes I tried different cables and the correct ones digital 110 ohm, and the firmware is up to date I even re-flashed it to make sure, but no joy. simbo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simbo Posted June 26, 2013 Author Share Posted June 26, 2013 Hi toneman2121, I have just tried the global reset but it hasn't solved anything. The company I perchesed the head from are going to replace it, so if the new one does the same thing then it is obviously the pod that's the problem and I will need to send it back to line 6 for repair. But thanks very much for your input it is good info as I didn't know about the global reset and re calibrating the expression pedal so thanks for that. simbo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simbo Posted July 5, 2013 Author Share Posted July 5, 2013 Hi Guys, Got a new DT25 Head and I still have the same problem of a thumping noise when I switch some of the patches on the HD500. So I contacted Line6 and sent the pod hd back to them to look at as it seems that it is the problem, they have replaced the PCB and sent it back and guess what it is no different, the guy I spoke to at Line6 said he would need to contact there department in the USA to see if they could throw any light on the issue, he said it might be a software problem. I tried rolling the flash memory back to an earlier version but it didn't do anything. Has anyone else had this problem or heard of such a problem as it seems to be a new one for Line6. I thought it was only doing this when connected with the Line6 link but I have tried it again with the 4 cable method and it still does it. But which ever method I use it doesn't do it with every patch its driving me up the wall. Can anyone HELL PLEASE. simbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
