joe164 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Dear Fellow Podders, Apologies if this topic has been covered *ad nauseam* in these forums before. I'm about to upgrade my Variax 300 + Pod XT Live setup to a JTV-59 + HD500. There are a couple of tones on the POD XT Live that I will miss in particular: namely, the Variax specific tones of "VAR-Special Lead" and "VAR-T-Model". Having not had the ability to try the new HD500 + JTV-59 in a guitar store here in Australia, can anyone tell me if I will be able to easily replicate/migrate these tones to the HD500, or, do they already exist on the HD500 and sound similar? And has anyone else gone through this upgrade path and can share some tips/recommendations before I finally (and sadly) let go of my POD XT Live?

joe164 Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 I just found this... the OP asked pretty much precisely the question I was asking, just more eloquently! http://line6.com/supportarchivenew/thread/89861 It seems those patches I was talking about will need to be rebuilt manually. Not looking forward to that!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwatford Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 i would recommend using the computer to start this process using 2 screens. pulling up gearbox on 1 and hd edit on the other. i think that is a faster process than bending over turning through each screen of the xt.
