Snuggs Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I was just given a Variax Standard. It didn't have the battery, charger, or cable. I'm a little confused about the cable though. If I only need to cable to connect to Workbench, is it the RJ45/USB cable that I need? Do I need to connect to Workbench if I'm satisfied with the preloaded models? I keep seeing a VDI cable mentioned. I think that's if you have a certain Line 6 floor pod, you can power the Variax Standard with this cable and no need for a battery. Am I understanding this correctly? Also, is the JTV battery the same as the Standard? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
