XCrossroadsX2000 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Can ayone reccomend a moderately priced laptop that works with HD500? I have a Dell Latatitude with Windows 7 and an Acer with Windows 7. Neither works with the HD500 and multiple discussions and supplying info to Line 6 could not resolve the issue. I think it may have to do with the multiple USB ports. Line 6 says not to use a USB hub and as these laptops have multiple USB inputs I am thinking an internal hub could be the issue. So as I purchasing a new laptop, I'd like to avoid any issues. Any reccomendations apprecciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilmikehoo Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Hmmmm... I have an older HP with multiple USB ports and an older Dell Inspiron with 4 USB ports (I'm using it right now, as a matter of fact) and have't had any issues. Try using a different port. I've had issues in the past with other things and simply using a different port did the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XCrossroadsX2000 Posted August 17, 2013 Author Share Posted August 17, 2013 Thnax tried all the ports, reinsatalled monkey multiple times. Multiple calls with support. Monkey or HD interface does not recognize HD500 or UX2 hardware, though Windows sees it as a device. Both work fine on my 64 bit Vista Workstation and XP workstation but I want something portable. Really wish Line 6 would develop a tablet interface. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rewolf48 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 My Acer S200E (Windows 8 inc touchscreen) works fine - I have been using it as a VST host with the HD500 as the Audio Interface. In fact I have more problems with the generic USB MIDI than the HD500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottyo78 Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 dpraen... You my fellow Line 6 commrade are probably in the wrong forum for UX2 info. This forum may serve you better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildbillmojo Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Anyone tried an HD500 with a Microsoft Surface Pro? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceatl Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 I have used HD PODs with Lenovo Thinkpad 410 (a little pricey) & several different Lenovo Ideapads ($300 and up)...Also a couple of different HP laptops...good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thidsa Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Tried a Latitude E6410 today just to see. No problem at all. Be sure to remove and reinstall the driver, not monkey. Its most likely a driver problem(what sometimes happen if you had plugged the pod in before installing the drivers from line6). Find the pod in device manager and change driver to the one in line6 folder in program files. Bjoern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
