HD500x went nutty

Have any of you experienced this? Last night, 45 min before show time mind you, my pod started going into tuner/ bypass mode on and off by itself, rendering it useless. I tried resetting and reinstalling the software with no luck, seemed mechanical. I bought it in Dec of 2014. Should this thing be failing so quickly? Of course the 12 month warranty is expired. It's a $500 paperweight at this point. Any suggestions? Thanks

Thanks for the info...I'm gonna send it back to AMS for warranty repair. I had a 12 month extended warranty through them. Hopefully it will be covered. I don't know if I can trust it live now...

IMO when live at gigs with this sort of devices (doesn't matter what brand) it's always better to have a small backup rig, just in case.....

Yeah, and in my case that's a 50 $ small piece of plastic called Zoom G1Xon modeler. By using its EQ I reach my basic tone up to 85 %.

Man I love that Zoom 1XON too easy to edit, loops with drums too. While not the sturdiest piece of kit to jab my size 13s on, it does sound great.

 

I always used to cram an old RP250 or XT Bean (and fbvXP) in the gig bag in case of board death at a gig. Nothing fancy just clean, overdrive and rock (3 patches).

And with a 10 mm felt pad you can get even make the pedal switch work switching an effect block :)
