phil_m Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Hi all, if I downloaded the new hd workbench does that update the guitars to the new hd aswell or is this a different update I cant seem to find it on its own? You have to update the guitar separately. Download the latest version of Line 6 Monkey from the "Downloads" tap above, and install it. Connect your guitar with the VDI connection either through a POD with a VDI jack or the little VDI interface that came with the guitar, and Monkey will guide you through the update process when you start it. If you're using the VDI interface, make sure you have to have a 1/4" cable plugged into the guitar with charged batteries in it, and the volume knob turned up.

shane01 Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 Thanks for the reply I have got the latest line6monkey and the HD workbench all installed does this mean the new HD guitars are in my jtv59, I cant hear any difference cant find any download for version 1.80 anywhere ,the monkey says all updates are up to date how can I tell if I have the new hd models in my guitar,, sorry for noob q's but I only got the guitar Friday. Edit. looking at the 1.80 came round in 2012 so I guess my new jtv will have it in already,, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_m Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 The latest firnware version for the JTV is 2.21. 1.80 is a pre-HD version and will not work with Workbench HD. It sounds like you actually don't have the latest version of Monkey installed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schontone Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Using Mac Snow Lepard and downloaded 2.21 but can't open it even with monkey on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinHines Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Using Mac Snow Lepard and downloaded 2.21 but can't open it even with monkey on? Connect your Variax JTV to your computer through the USB dongle (the clear plastic interface box that came with your JTV), then run Line 6 Monkey. If you are signed in, Line 6 Monkey should "see" your JTV and then present a list of all drivers, firmware, editors, etc. showing both your current installed version and the latest version.

Lachiemcg Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I am having this same problem. I have Monkey version 1.71 and Workbench HD version 2.11 installed When I open Workbench HD it says I need to update the JTV When I open Monkey it tells me everything is up to date It doesn't appear to see the JTV, Just the USB interface. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lachiemcg Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Sorry, got it, updating now, I just had to restart my mac and reopen monkey and then it saw it. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
