CBTL Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 So here it is, when I conect to workbench 2 through the hub to mod some guitars there is obviously no sound and have to swap back and fourth between my hd500. It's so frustrating, there must be a way of monitoring so I can tweak on the go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReverendLove Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Why don't you use the usual 1/4" guitar in on your pod like with every other guitar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBTL Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 It goes haywire with both the vdi and 1/4. It messes WB right up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReverendLove Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Strange. It works here.Probably you should try to set the input "guitar" only. Or there is something like an USB conflict. Try to pull the USB cable from your POD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 works for me with both interface and 1/4" it can do strange things from time to time if i'm changing things too quickly... but works easy enough for the most part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie_Watt Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 If it acts up this way, you probably have a grounding problem between your computer and your amp / pod. I have seen this cause the USB connection to act up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Do not connect your HD500 to your computer via usb (e.g. do not run both HD500 Edit and Workbench at the same time). Connect your Variax to the computer running Workbench using the Workbench hardware interface. Connect the 1/4" output of your Variax to the HD500 Guitar Input (or use VDI/Varaix Input) and monitor the sound using the HD500 audio outputs. This setup should work.

TheRealZap Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 you cant connect to the 500 via VDI and the interface at the same time... methinks you got confused :) Do not connect your HD500 to your computer via usb (e.g. do not run both HD500 Edit and Workbench at the same time). Connect your Variax to the computer running Workbench using the Workbench hardware interface.
