hi guys another stupid question when you upgrade to hd2 the alt.tuning knob has to be on model but do you have to turn the model knob on or do you just leave it on the mags.Thanks for all your time cal.

I don't think it matters, really. The guitar just has to be on. But to be sure, just make sure the LED on the model knob is lit up.

 

What I mean by that, I guess, is that I think as soon as the Variax is detected by Monkey, the LED lights up itself if I remember correctly. I don't think it matters if you had a model selected or the pickups.

I could swear Psarkissian said be sure to set the model knob to mags when everyone was having trouble with their 2.0 installation a couple of weeks ago, but there are so many posts and I am waaaayyy to lazy to dig through them all.

 

That is to say, I am 100% sure someone said the model knob should be set to mags and 99.9% certain the person who said it was Line 6 US Service Technician & Moderator Psarkissian.

 

But I could be wrong...

I saw one procedure that said to have in Mag pickup mode but I am not sure it matters as long as it's powered up with the battery or through the VDI.
