gidgey Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I'm sick of my Pod GX being so plasticy and light so I bought a Focusrite 2i2 Scarlett. When I thought I got it to work, I realized every setting said there were no sounds to properly play the preset. I guess the packs I bought are connected to my GX when it's plugged in? How do I get it to work? Please help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triryche Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 That is corrected, the license is bundled with the GX You may be able to run it as a plug-in (assuming you have the POD Studio GX that comes with the plug-in license) within your DAW in real-time with both interfaces connected but using the Focusrite as the interface. Otherwise you would need to purchase the POD Farm hardware independent version. You can get the PF standard and any additional packs you purchased would be authorized.

gidgey Posted March 28, 2018 Author Share Posted March 28, 2018 Thank you. Can I use it without using a DAW. Just as a jamming tool with the Pod Farm program? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triryche Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 If you purchase the hardware independent license you can. Or you could just set up a project in your DAW specifically for using the PF plug-in to jam with your Focusrite. Another workaround would be to get a standalone VST wrapper but I have no recommendations in that area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gidgey Posted March 29, 2018 Author Share Posted March 29, 2018 I have the USB dongle thing. Is that the licence? I can get the Focusrite to work alone with Pod Farm but almost none of the sounds are activated unless I also plug in the GX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triryche Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Not sure if you are referring to the GX as the USB dongle or something else.. The POD Studio comes with a free hardware enabled license which is why the GX needs to be plugged to use all the standard PF models plus any additional packs you purchased. If you are able to use the Focusrite with PF standalone it’s likely running a trial version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gidgey Posted March 30, 2018 Author Share Posted March 30, 2018 Oops, the USB "dongle" is actually for Reason (my DAW). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
