Q:  What is the warranty of the original POD and POD 2.0?

A: The warranty of the original POD/POD 2.0 is twelve (12) months from the date of purchase when bought new from an authorized Line 6 dealer.

Q:  Where can I download a manual for the original POD/POD 2.0?

Note: If the pedal jack of your POD is labeled "pedal" than it is NOT compatible with our FBV line of foot controllers. If the pedal jack of your POD is labeled "FBV" then it WILL work with our FBV line of foot controllers.

Q:  Which foot controllers are compatible with the original POD/POD 2.0?

A: The original PODs and POD 2.0s that are labeled 'Pedal' above the RJ45 pedal connection are compatible with the older Line 6 FB4 and the Line Floor Board.  Those PODs that are labeled 'FBV' above the RJ45 pedal connection are compatible with the current FBV series of foot controllers.

Q: Is it possible to upgrade my POD 1 to a Bass POD?

A: Unfortunately, there is no upgrade path between the Pod and Bass Pod.

Q: How do I upgrade or check the Firmware/EPROM version of my POD/POD 2.0/POD Pro?

A:  Firmware EPROMs are no longer available from Line 6. Please check out the EPROM Upgrade and F.A.Q. document for more information. 

SECONDARY FUNCTIONS

Hold down the TAP TEMPO button and press MANUAL. This will "virtually latch" the TAP button in the depressed position so that you can access the secondary functions without holding down the TAP button. This leaves both hands free for playing the guitar and auditioning the changes. Press TAP again to deactivate it.

Q: Does the POD have a MIDI through?

A: The POD does not have midi thru, only midi in and midi out.

Q:  How do I connect my POD's MIDI In and Out to my computer?

A: Please check out the Original POD Computer Connectivity document.

Q: How do I record the audio signal of my POD 2.0 directly into my computer?

A: In order to record the audio signal of your POD / POD 2.0 directly into your computer, you will first need the proper type of software that is capable of recording audio loaded into your computer.  You will also need a sound card that has an audio input. If you have a Soundblaster type of card, you will need a cable that has two 1/4 inch mono plugs on one end and one 1/8 inch stereo plug. This cable can be found at most major music retailers. The two 1/4 inch mono jacks on this cable will need to be inserted into the POD's Left and Right Outputs and the other end of the cable should be inserted into the audio input of your computer's sound card. Make sure your sound card and audio software are configured to receive audio input and you should be ready to record.

If you are using another type of soundcard, like a unit that has an external break out box, you can plug directly into that box using a regualr guitar cable of a balanced (TRS) cable. Be sure to check the documentation that came with the unit to configure it correctly.

Q: Can the Pod Pro be used as a mic pre?

A:The POD Pro does not have a XLR, balanced input which is what is needed for most low impedance microphones. Technically, you could use an impedance transformer to convert a low impedance mic line to high impedance or use a high impedance mic and then use the POD as a mic pre but you may not get the greatest, most noise-free results as the POD Pro was not really designed for this application.  That said, you may try it out and find a sound that is quite interesting and useful so let your ears be your guide!

Q: Is it possible to use the preset amp models with a different speaker cab model other than the pre set one? If so how do you do it?

A: Just hold down the Tap Tempo button on POD while turning the Effects knob to switch cabinet models.

I noticed that when using POD without a MIDI editor on PC, you're not able to control your feedback on delay effect.

POD version 1.4 (or earlier versions) will not store the delay feedback. This has been addressed in POD 2. Not only will 2.0 store delay feedback but you can also adjust it from the front of the POD. Please contact us directly for an EPROM upgrade of your POD.

Q: How can I control the "Delay Level" on my POD when using the Delay in conjunction with another effect?

A: When using the POD or POD Pro, the Delay Level and Delay Feedback can be adjusted by holding down the TAP TEMPO button and turning the MIDDLE knob for Delay Level and the BASS knob for Delay Feedback.  Also, REVERB Decay can be adjusted by holding down TAP TEMPO and turning the REVERB knob. More information can be found in the EFFECTS section of the POD manual.

How to correlate delay knob settings to Milliseconds

Here is a chart that correlates Effect Tweak knob settings to delay time in ms. Please remember that these are estimates and you may need to move the knob a little to get the exact setting. Knob setting Milliseconds 0-75 1-76 2-100 3-146 4-225 5-350 6-625 7-850 8-1400 9-2600

Q: Did you create a pitch shift or harmonizer effect for thePOD PRO? If so, can I download it from your web site?

A: No. There is no harmonizing/pitch shifter patch to download into the Pod Pro.

Q: How do I install a new EPROM upgrade chip in the POD/POD 2.0?

A: To install the Pod EPROM, take the four screws out of the back of the pod to expose the main PC board, it would be the largest chip on the board. Remove the chip with a flat screwdriver and replace with the new one. There is a notch on the socket on the PC board, line up the notch on the chip with the notch on the socket.  NOTE: We no longer have any POD PRO EPROMS. You may be able to find a user on our forums or elsewhere online who has an extra chip that they would be willing to give you.

Q:  Why isn't POD 2.0 equipped with an XLR direct output jack? Instead you have equipped it with left and right 1/4" jacks, making it still necessary to use a DI box when running it directly into the snake/mixer when playing live.

Q: What are the differences in features between all of the Firmware versions of the POD?

• POD Version 1.x differences from POD version 2.0
  • 4 More amp models - line6 twang,crunch# 2, Blues, and insane.
  • Can access all 32 amp models from the front panel - without midi.
  • With Tap Tempo held down the following dials change:
    • Drive - Distortion (on/off)
    • Bass - Delay feedback
    • Middle - Delay Level
    • Treble - Presence boost (on/off)
    • Channel Volume - Drive Boost (on/off)
    • Reverb - Reverb Decay
    • Effect Tweak - Tap Tempo Speed
    • Amp Models - Other 16 amp models
    • Effect - Cab Models
  • The Marshall off axis cab sim went away and was replaced with Marshall w/greenbacks.
  • Amp and effects customization feature was added:
  • Ability to store your favorite settings for amps and effects, so that next time you turn the dial, they are how you like them.
    • Set an amp model how you like it (or effect).
    • Hold down save and Tap Tempo (Manual, Tap Tempo, A, and B start to flash)
    • Hit (A) to save the amp settings. And (B) to save save the effects setting.
    • Next time you move to that amp/effect it will be set how you like it.
    • Does not work in manual mode.
  • POD can be "tuned" to work with different amp setups
    • Hold down SAVE while powering up
    • Press UP and DOWN to select:
    • A - POD feeding Power amp and closed back cab.
    • B - POD feeding Power amp and open back cab
    • C - POD in front of combo/head and open back cab
    • D - POD in front of combo /head and closed back cab

• POD version 2.1 is different from 2.2:
  • Latch mode was added.
    • Hold down Tap Tempo and Manual at the same time for about 3 seconds.
    • Tap tempo will flash slowly on older POD's.
      • There is no visual indication of Latch mode on newer (v 2.54) FBV compatible PODs.
    • All dials act as if you are holding down Tap Tempo.
    • Press Tap Tempo one more time to disengage Latch Mode.
  • Delay spill-over was removed to allow latch mode.
    • When you switch patches, your delay will not carry over, it turns off.

• POD version 2.2 is different from 2.3:
  • Some amp models were slightly changed, most noticeably the Marshall sims.
  • Some cab models were changed.

Q:  What is the difference between the original POD/POD 2.0 and the newer POD 2.0?

A: The most obvious differrences are the display now have a different 3-digit LCD display and the POD is now labeled 'FBV' above the RJ45 connection to show compatibility with the FBV series foot controllers.  These newer POD 2.0's are not compatible with the older FB4 or Line 6 Floor Board controllers.  The newer POD 2.0 also has a different processor from the original and is not upgradeable via EPROM chip.  Also, because of this new processor, the modeling of this POD 2.0 may sound slightly different that an original POD 2.0.

Q: How do I bypass the amp models in the POD?

A: Unfortunately, you cannot bypass the amp models in the POD. You can, however, set up some patches that sound as if there was no amp model being used.

The most transparent model on the Pod is the "Tube Preamp" model. It is designed to be flat and uncolored, and does not have any cabinet modeling. Set your bass, mids, and treble to 12 o'clock for a "flat" setting.

Q: What amps, cabs, and effects are included in the POD/POD Pro?

A: Please review the cab models.pdf file below for reference.

Q: How do I know what cab model I have connected to my amp?

A: There are two cabinet setups in the POD 2.0:

Cabinet Tuning:

• In cabinet select mode, simply hold the "TAP" button and turn the effect knob to scroll through different cabinet sounds.

Cabinet Select:

• Your POD can be tuned for optimal performance with a variety of systems when the A.I.R. switch is set to its AMP position. By default, your POD expects be plugged in before an open-backed cabinet. If you want to plug into something else, you'll want to change the Cabinet Tuning Mode.

To do this:

1. Hold the Save button while powering up your POD.
2. The POD's display will show a letter for one of the Cabinet Tuning Modes; press the Up and Down arrows to pick the mode, then press Save.
3. Use Mode (A-D) when POD is (A-D) & your speaker cabs are (A-D)

• A feeding power amp closed back (ideal for 4x12 cab)
• B feeding power amp open back (ideal for 1x12 cab)
• C (default) in front of combo/head open back (ideal for 1x12 or 2x12 cab)
• D in front of combo/head closed back (ideal for 4x12 cab)

Q: Is it possible to use a MIDI controller with my Line 6 device?

A: All of the Line 6 products equipped with MIDI inputs and outputs can be controlled by another external MIDI device. The most commonly used are the Voodoo Labs Ground Control and the Behringer FCB 1010.

Since you can not adjust the values on most Line 6 products that receive MIDI information, issues with communication are generally resolved by programming the sending unit correctly.

Basically, the POD only knows that when you send it MIDI MESSAGE "A" it will do ACTION "A". Since this can not be changed in the POD (and most other Line 6 products) you need to make sure that your foot controller (or other controlling device) is sending MIDI MESSAGE "A"

Please refer to the back of your Line 6 user manual for a list of all MIDI events pertaining to your product.

Q: How do I turn on/off the Flextone's Noise Gate?

A: On the original Flextone, just hold down the Tap Tempo button and rotate the Effects Select knob to Bypass to turn it off, or anything other than Bypass to turn it on. In firmware versions earlier than 1.4, the noise gate defaults to ON, 1.4 or later defaults to noise gate OFF. On the Flextone II, hold the tap tempo button and turn the REVERB button past 12 o'clock to turn the noise gate on, below 12 o'clock to turn it off.Q:

Q:  When I'm using the Flextone with the controller, why can't I turn on (insert effect name here)?

A: Because the Flextone doesn't have as much raw processing power as the Vetta, it cannot run all of the different effects at the same time. You're limited to only one of the selections on the Effect Select knob per patch (Reverb is always available, though). If a patch is saved with, say, Delay/Flange 1 enabled, there's no way you can turn on a Rotary Speaker effect in that patch. You can, however, create an adjacent patch that is identical, except for the effects selection.

DT25/DT50 FIRMWARE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

NEEDED:

• A MIDI interface that connects to your computer via USB (download the current Driver for it if you don't have it installed)
• 2 MIDI cables (or a MIDI interface such as the M-Audio Uno that comes with attached MIDI cables)

NOTE: Line 6 recommends a name brand USB to MIDI interface  produced by an audio company that supports/updates their drivers.  Good choices include: M-Audio, Edirol, E-Mu and MOTU. These interfaces have proven to be more robust and reliable when it comes to large MIDI transfers such as the DT25 and DT50 update.

• For further infomation on MIDI connectivity and interfaces, please go over the following MIDI Document
• Latest version of Line 6 Monkey installed.  Download and install the Line 6 Monkey software here.

Procedure

1. Connect your MIDI interface to your computer via USB cable.
2. Connect the DT25/DT50 MIDI Out to your MIDI interface In, and connect the DT25/DT50 MIDI In to your MIDI interface Out.
3. Launch the Line 6 Monkey with the DT25/DT50 connected via the MIDI interface and powered on.
4. Select the Flash Memory line item and click the Update Selection button to install the flash memory update into the DT25/DT50.
5. The device will receive the firmware data and the unit will be updated to the latest Firmware.

***If the firmware update fails and you are having trouble reconnecting to Line 6 Monkey, please try putting the unit into SAFE MODE before starting up and connecting to the Line 6 Monkey software.  To do this, hold the channel select switch down to 'Channel B' and power on the DT amplifier while holding this switch down.  Let go of the switch after 10 seconds or so, then re-start Line 6 Monkey and follow the steps above to update/re-install the flash memory.

What is the difference between RF1 & RF2?

RF1 will have 4 carrier frequencies per channel, while RF2 will have 2 carrier frequencies per channel.  RF2 mode was designed specifically for the use of wireless systems in environments where significant wireless interference is known to exist.  In RF2 mode the frequencies of individual channels is shifted slightly to be on frequencies that are known to have less wifi traffic than the corresponding frequencies in RF1 mode.  The additional number of carrier frequencies is why RF1 mode can be better for use in environments troubled by wifi interferences, but, again, RF2 mode was designed specifically to skirt that interference.  Wireless systems with the channel scan function ONLY scan channels in the RF1 frequency ranges, even if the system is in RF2 mode. 

When and Why should I use RF1 vs RF2?

Only use RF2 if experiencing dropouts with RF1 and other troubleshooting (such a line of sight, high power mode, alternative channels, ensuring correct antenna placement, etc.) is not resolving dropout problems. 

**IMPORTANT NOTE** Do not mix and match systems in RF1 and RF2 modes!  Keep all systems in a given environment in the same RF mode - that means all systems are either in RF1 mode or RF2.  Do NOT put some systems in RF1 and others in RF2 - this will cause the systems to interfere with eachother.  *******

If you are experiencing dropouts with your Line 6 digital wireless audio systems please review this troubleshooting document http://line6.com/support/docs/DOC-2566

Line 6 Wireless Modes RF2 & RF1

The new V75, 55 and 35 default to RF2 mode, but include the ability to be switched into RF1 mode.  You cannot use RF2 mode in the presence of any older Line 6 2.4G wireless (including Relay) in the same venue.  If you try you will likely get failures in both the old and new units.  Just say no!  You can check using the RF scan feature included in XD-V75 receivers.

You must either flash older models to the newer V2.0 firmware (and you must have access to a V75 receiver and do this via Monkey) or you can shift the newer models (or any that have been flashed with V2.0) into RF 1 mode.

If an XD-V75 unit is being added to a setup that already includes any devices running in RF1 mode, the XD-V75 can be used to update the older devices to run RF2 mode by using an internet-connected computer attached to the XD-V75’s USB port. See the Firmware Updating Procedure section for more information. Alternatively, the XD-V75 transmitters can be setup to operate in RF1 mode if it is necessary to use the transmitters with older Line 6 receivers.

Note: Relay G30 and G50 Receivers that have been updated to V2.0 firmware will *follow* the RF Mode that the corresponding G30 or G50 Transmitter is set to.

To Set The THH12 Or TBP12 Transmitters (Including Relay G50/90):

1. Enter Setup mode to display the current channel
2. While holding down the SELECT button, press and release the ON/MUTE button on the THH12 or VALUE button on the TBP12, then release the SELECT button. The display will briefly show [XD-V75 RF1] or [XD-V75 RF2] to indicate whether it is operating in the old or new mode, respectively. This setting is retained when powering off, so as a reminder the display will also show this indication [RF1 or RF2] each time power is turned on. The XD-V75 receiver will display a [To] on the far right of the display to indicate while communicating with a RF1 software transmitter. [Tx] indicates units operating in RF2 mode.  They must ALL be the same.

The XD-V35 system ships set to the new dual frequency RF2 mode. To use an XD-V35 version transmitter with an earlier generation XD-V30 receiver (RF1 mode), you must change the transmitter from RF2 mode to RF1 mode. The method differs slightly between the handheld and beltpack.

Setting THH06 And TBP06 Transmitters (Including G30):

THH06 HandheldTransmitter

1. Turn the transmitter off.
2. Press and hold the channel SELECT button.
3. While holding the SELECT button, press and hold the power ON button.
4. The blue LED over channel 1 will flash three times to indicate that the transmitter is in the RF1 mode.
5. To revert to the RF2 mode, repeat the above steps; the blue LED over channel 2 will flash three times when the transmitter is in this mode.

TBP06 BeltpackTransmitter

1. With transmitter off, set the Channel Select slide switch to channel 6.
2. Turn on the transmitter.
3. Immediately slide the Channel Select switch completely left to channel 1.
4. Quickly slide the Channel Select switch completely right to channel 6.
5. Quickly slide the Channel Select switch completely left to channel 1.
6. This process must be completed within three seconds of turning on the transmitter.
7. The blue LED will flash once to indicate that the transmitter is now in the 4-frequency transmission mode. To revert to RF2 transmission mode, repeat the above steps; the blue LED will flash twice when the transmitter is in this mode.

Note: It is IMPORTANT to note that once you shift (in either direction) the transmitters will only remember the change if you power cycle the transmitter.  Just turn it off with the power switch and then back on.  If you were to pop a battery before doing this then it will revert back to the last "saved" mode.

Line 6 Wireless RF1 und RF2: Frequenzmodus wechseln

Line 6 Wireless Modus RF2 & RF1

Die neuen Line 6 Wireless Sender V75, 55 und 35 werden im RF2-Modus ausgeliefert, sie können aber auch in den RF1-Modus umgeschaltet werden. Der RF2-Modus kann nicht benutzt werden, wenn ältere Line 6 2.4G Wireless-Geräte (inklusive Relay) am gleichen Ort verwendet werden, weil das zu Störungen bei beiden Gerätetypen führen kann. Welcher Modus gerade eingeschaltet ist, können Sie herausfinden, indem Sie die eingebaute Frequenzen-Scan-Funktion Ihres XD-V75-Empfängers benutzen.

Um das Problem zu beheben, müssen sie entweder die neuere V2.0-Firmware auf ihre älteren Geräte aufspielen (dazu brauchen Sie Zugang zu einem V75-Empfänger und Monkey), oder sie schalten die neueren Modelle (beziehungsweise jedes Modell, auf dem die V2.0-Firmware läuft) in den RF1-Modus um.

Wenn ein XD-V75-Gerät zu einem Setup hinzugefügt wird, das schon Geräte enthält, die im RF1-Modus laufen, kann das XD-V75 benutzt werden, um die älteren Geräte zu aktualisieren. Dazu brauchen Sie einen Computer mit Internetverbindung, der an den USB-Port des XD-V75 angeschlossen wird. Weitere Informationen dazu finden Sie in der Sektion über Firmware-Aktualisierung. Alternativ können Sie das Setup in den RF-1-Modus umschalten, um die Sender mit älteren Line-6-Empfängern zu verwenden.

Bitte beachten Sie: Relay G30- und G50-Empfänger, die auf die V2.0-Firmware aktualisiert wurden, „folgen“ automatisch derjenigen Frequenz, auf die der dazugehörige G30- oder G50-Empfänger eingestellt wurde.

Einstellen des THH12 oder TBP12 Senders (Inklusive Relay G50/90):

1. 1. Gehen Sie in den Setup-Modus, um den aktuellen Kanal anzuzeigen
2. 2. Halten Sie den SELECT-Knopf gedrückt, drücken Sie dann den ON/MUTE-Knopf (beim THH12) beziehungsweise den VALUE-Knopf (beim TBP12) und lassen Sie ihn wieder los. Das Display wird kurz [XD-V75 RF1] oder [XD-V75 RF2] anzeigen, so können Sie sehen, ob der Transmitter im alten oder neuen Modus läuft. Die Einstellung wird beibehalten, wenn Sie das Gerät ausschalten. Zur Erinnerung zeigt das Display den jeweiligen Modus [RF1 oder RF2] beim Einschalten des Geräts kurz an. Der XD-V75-Receiver zeigt an der äußersten rechten Seite [To] an, wenn das Gerät mit einem RF1-Transmitter kommuniziert. [Tx] bedeutet, dass die Geräte im RF2-Modus arbeiten. Damit die verschiedenen Sender- Empfänger Generationen zusammen störungsfrei arbeiten müssen ALLE Geräte im gleichen Modus arbeiten.

Bedeutet das Vorhandensein eines Senders im  RF1 modus.

Bedeutet das Vorhandensein eines Senders im  RF2 modus.

Das XD-V35-System ist bei der Auslieferung auf den neuen Dual-Frequenz-Modus RF2 eingestellt. Um einen XD-V35-Sender mit einem XD-V30-Empfänger der früheren Generation (RF1-Modus) zu verwenden, müssen Sie den Sender von RF2 auf RF1 umschalten. Die Vorgehensweise ist etwas unterschiedlich, je nachdem, ob Sie das Mikrofon- oder das Beltpack-Gerät verwenden.

Einstellen des THH06 und TBP06 Transmitters (Inklusive G30):

THH06 Handheld-Transmitter

1. 1. Schalten Sie den Transmitter aus.
2. 2. Halten Sie den Kanal-Select-Knopf gedrückt.
3. 3. Während Sie den Select-Knopf gedrückt halten, drücken Sie den Power/Ein-Knopf und halten Sie diesen ebenfalls gedrückt.
4. 4. Die blaue LED über Kanal 1 leuchtet dreimal kurz auf, um anzuzeigen, dass der Transmitter jetzt im RF1-Modus ist.
5. 5. Um in den RF2-Modus zurückzukehren, wiederholen Sie die oben genannten Schritte; die blaue LED über Kanal 2 leuchtet dreimal kurz auf, um anzuzeigen, dass der Transmitter im RF2-Modus ist.

TBP06 Beltpack-Transmitter

1. 1. Bei ausgeschaltetem Transmitter den Schieberegler zur Kanalauswahl auf Kanal 6 stellen.
2. 2. Transmitter einschalten.
3. 3. Den Schieberegler sofort nach dem Einschalten auf Kanal 1 stellen, zurück auf 6 und wieder auf Kanal 1 schieben.
4. 4. Dieser Prozess muss nach Anschalten des Senders innerhalb von drei Sekunden geschehen.
5. 7. Die blaue LED blinkt einmal, um anzuzeigen, dass der Sender jetzt im 4-Frequenzen-Übertragungsmodus ist. Um in den RF2-Übertragungsmodus zurückzukehren, wiederholen Sie die oben genannten Schritte. Die blaue LED blinkt dann zweimal auf, wenn der Sender im RF2-Modus ist.

Wichtig: Bitte beachten Sie, dass das Gerät den soeben eingestellten Modus (egal in welche Richtung) nur beibehält, wenn Sie das Gerät nach dem Wechsel kurz aus- und wieder einschalten. Dadurch wird der aktuell eingestellte Modus gespeichert. Wenn sie vorher eine Batterie eingelegt haben, springt das Gerät zurück zum zuletzt gespeicherten Modus.

Line 6 sans fil RF1 et RF2: Changement de modes

Les modes de transmissionRF2&RF1 Line6

Les nouveaux systèmes sans fil V75, 55 et 35utilisent le nouveau mode de transmission RF2 par défaut, maispossèdent la possibilité de changer enmode RF1.

Il n’est pas possible d’utiliser des appareils qui utilisent le mode RF2 s’il y a des anciens appareils RF1(V70 our Relay) sur la même scène ou dans le même bâtiment

Sivous l’essayez,vous allez très probablement voir des erreurs de communication sur les anciens et nouveaux systèmes. Il suffit de ne pas les combiner !Vous pouvez vérifier la présence d’émetteurs RF1 /FR2 en utilisantla fonction « CHANNEL SCAN »RFdans les récepteurs XD-V75.

Vous devez soitmettre a jourles anciens modèles vers la version 2.0ou vous pouvezchanger lesmodèles déjà équipés de la version 2.0enRFmode 1.
Pour mettre à jour un ancien modèle, vous avez besoin d’un récepteur XDV75, un ordinateur et le logiciel Monkey.

Si une  XD-V75 est ajouté à une installation qui comprend déjà des appareils fonctionnant en mode RF1, le XD-V75 peut être utilisé pour mettre à jour les appareils plus anciens vers RF2 mode.

Pour mettre à jour les modèles précédents, vous devrez avoir accès à l'Internet et une connexion USB entre le XD-V75 à l'ordinateur

Voir la section Mise à jour ‘’Firmware Procedure’’ pour de plus amples renseignements. Alternativement, les émetteurs XD-V75 peut être configuré en mode de RF1 s'il est nécessaire d'utiliser des émetteurs avec les anciens Line 6 récepteurs.

Line 6 ワイヤレス・モードRF2とRF1について
新しいXD-V75、V55、V35の初期設定はRF2モードですが、RF1モードへ切り替えることも可能になっています。従来のLine 6 2.4 GHzワイヤレス (Relayを含む) と同じ会場内で、同時にRF2モードを使うことはできません。もし行なった場合は両方のユニットで問題が起こる可能性がありますので、絶対に行わないようにしてください。どのモードが使われているかは、XD-V75のレシーバーに搭載されたRFスキャン機能を使ってチェックすることが可能です。
問題を解決するには、従来のモデルを新しいV2.0ファームウェアに書き換えるか (Monkeyを使って書き換えを行うにはXD-V75レシーバーを使う必要があります)、新しいモデル (あるいはV2.0へアップデートされたモデル) をRF1モードにシフトします。
RF1モードのディバイスを含むセットアップへXD-V75ユニットを追加した場合、そのXD-V75を使って以前のディバイスをアップデートできます。その際はXD-V75のUSBポートへ、インターネット接続したコンピューターを接続して行います。ファームウェア・アップデートの方法は、XD-V75の製品ページのリソースタブに用意されているPDFファイルをご覧ください。なお、XD-V75のトランスミッターを以前のLine 6レシーバーで使用する必要がある場合は、そのトランスミッターをRF1に設定することもできます。
注意: V2.0ファームウェアにアップデートされたRelay G30やG50のレシーバーは、対応するG30やG50のトランスミッターで設定されたRFモードに従います。
THH12、TBP12トランスミッターの設定方法 (Relay G50/90を含む):

1. Setupモードに入って現在のチャンネルを表示します。

2. SELECTボタンを押しながら、THH12のON/MUTEボタン、もしくはTBP12のVALUEボタンを一度押して、離します。新旧どちらのモードで動作しているかがディスプレイ上に [XD-V75 RF1] または [XD-V75 RF2] の形で表示されます。同じことを繰り返すと別のモードに切り替わります。この設定は電源オフ時にも維持され、電源投入時に [RF1] または [RF2] と表示されます。XD-V75レシーバーでチャンネル・スキャンを行うと、RF1ソフトウェアのトランスミッターとコミュニケーションしている際にはディスプレイ内のチャンネル番号の上に [To] が表示されます。RF2モードで動作しているユニットの場合は [Tx] が表示されます。複数のユニットを使用している場合は、どちらか一方に全ユニットを統一する必要があります。

XD-V35システムは新しい2周波数 (デュアルフリケンシー) 方式のRF2モードに設定された状態で出荷されています。XD-V35のトランスミッターを前世代のXD-V30レシーバー (RF1モード) で使用する場合には、トランスミッターをRF2モードからRF1モードへ切り替える必要があります。その方法はハンドヘルドとベルトパックで少し異なっています。

THH06、TBP06トランスミッターの設定方法 (G30を含む):
THH06ハンドヘルド・トランスミッター

1. トランスミッターの電源を切ります。
2. チャンネルのSELECTボタンを押したままにします。
3. そのままの状態で、電源のONボタンを押し続けます。
4. チャンネル1の上にある青いLEDが3回点滅して、トランスミッターがRF1モードになったことを示します。
5. RF2モードに戻すには、同じプロセスを繰り返します。モードが変わると、チャンネル2の上にある青いLEDが3回点滅します。

TBP06ベルトパック・トランスミッター

1. トランスミッターがオフの状態で、Channel Selectスライド・スイッチをチャンネル6に設定します。
2. トランスミッターの電源を入れます。
3. Channel Selectスイッチを左端のチャンネル1まで素早くスライドします。
4. Channel Selectスイッチを右端のチャンネル6まで素早くスライドします。
5. 以上のプロセスを、電源投入後3秒以内に終わらせる必要があります。
6. 青いLEDが1回点滅して、トランスミッターがRF1 (4周波数伝送モード) であることを示します。RF2伝送モードへ戻すには、同じステップを繰り返します。青いLEDが2回点滅します。

注意:トランスミッターのモードを変更した場合、その変更は電源を入れ直すことで記憶されます。一度電源スイッチを切ってから、再度オンにしてください。この作業を行う前に電池を抜いてしまうと、以前のモードに戻ってしまいます。

Battery

Q:  What kind of battery is used in the James Tyler Variax and what is the battery life?

A:  JTV guitars use a lithium-ion battery similar to that of a camcorder.  A fully charged battery can deliver at least 12 hours of continuous performance.  There is a four light battery life indicator on the battery compartment on the back of the JTV guitars that can be viewed by pressing the round flush black button next to the lights.

4 LEDs = 9+ hours

3 LEDs = 6+ hours

2 LEDs = 3+ hours

1 LED = less than 3 hours

1 LED blinking = less than 1 hour, recharge battery

Note: There are 2 ways to supply power to the Variax without a battery.  When connected to VDI Digital Input equipped hardware, such as a POD X3 Live, power is supplied via this connection.  Or, use the optional XPS-DI direct box/power supply and TRS cable.  With this box you can power the Variax and it also works as an A/B box to send your signal out of a DI to go direct to a board or acoustic amplifier with certain models.  When powering the JTV guitar with either TRS or VDI connection, it is suggested to remove the battery from the guitar.

Q:  How long does it take to fully charge a dead battery for the JTV guitars?

A:  It takes about 12 hours to fully charge a dead JTV battery, but leaving it to charge overnight is a good time to do this.  You can get a 4-6 hour play time by charging the JTV battery for 30-45 minutes.

Q:  What does the indicator light mean on the JTV battery charger?

A:  A solid RED light on the charger indicates that the battery is charging.  A blinking RED light means that either the batter is fully charged, or the battery was inserted improperly into the charger and needs to be re-seated properly.  If you know the battery needs charging and you get a blinking RED light when it is put into the charger, please re-seat the battery in the charger.

Tuning Gears

JTV-59US and JTV-89US guitars will have Hipshot Classic Guitar Tuning Machines. They are sleek, precision-built tuners with an ultra-smooth 18:1 gear ratio.

The JTV-69US guitars feature the Hipshot Grip-Lock Locking Guitar Tuning Machines that are staggered in height for maximum tuning stability.

For the Korean James Tyler Variax guitars, we went with 16:1 sealed tuners on all three models. They are die-cast, modern-built, solid tuners. They are sealed permanently and lubricated to work smoothly for years to come without slipping or binding.

As with the JTV-69US, we went with locking and staggered versions of these 16:1 sealed tuners.

As with the staggered locking tuners, the locking pole pieces within each tuner are staggered as well to match the size the tuner.  They are measured 23.4mm (x2 for low E/A strings), 21.9mm (x2 for D/G strings), and 20.4mm (x2 for B/high E strings).

New HD Acoustic Models

Q:  When were the new HD acoustic models added to the JTV guitars?

A:  The new HD acoustic models were added in firmware 1.81 and are included in all newer firmware versions of the JTV guitars after that.

Q:  What does the Tone knob do on the newer HD acoustic models on the JTV guitars?

A:  The Tone knob on the new HD acoustic models is used to adjust the amount of body resonance for the model, but it was also specially programmed to have the top 10% of the Tone knob completely remove this resonance (at the 90-100% position) for those that prefer to remove that sound from the new acoustic models to closely resemble the flat nature of the older acoustic models from previous Variax guitars.

Alternate Tuning Knob

Q:  How does the Alternate Tuning Knob on the JTV guitars work?

A:  The Alternate Tuning Knob on the JTV gutiars can be used to any of the preset tunings that are saved to the knob.  This knob has 12 settings including two labeled 'Model' and 'Standard'

Set to 'Model,' the Alternate Tuning Knob lets you access the alternate tunings you created using the Variax Workbench software.  These  tunings are stored on your Variax's Model knob.  Set to 'Standard,' the Alternate Tuning knob overrides saved tunings to set every model to standard EADGBE tuning.

The Alt Tune knob's remainging 10 settings are hand-picked for each stle of James Tyler Variax guitar.

Q: My update stopped in the middle of the process?

A:   During the Pocket POD  update using the Line 6 Monkey software on a Windows Vista (32-bit and  64-bit) machine, the update may stop and will not continue.  This may  occur on certain USB ports.  This issue can be verified if the progress  bar stops partway through the update.  Note:If the update  does stop, the system will not respond to requests to shutdown  the computer, even after force quitting monkey.  After disconnecting the Pocket POD, the system  can be shutdown.  The Pocket POD remains  in boot mode after this occurs.  Reconnecting to Monkey and  re-installing the firmware update does recover the Pocket POD.  Please  make sure to test the Pocket POD on every USB port on your computer  while troubleshooting this issue.  Completely remove any USB  hubs, even if not in use.

My new HD 500 suddeneley lost everything  - the screen still lights up but none of the controls have any effect.  I've reloaded Monkey and selected the HD500 drivers.  I follow the instructions and it tells me installation was successful at the end, but then when I go back into Monkey to reflash the HD 500, it shows no drivers installed.  This is very frustrating and time wasting  - can anyone help?

I got the ex-1 to use with the line 6 kb37 and pod farm 2.

The pedal would only use 50% of the plate travel starting at 25% and maxing out at 75%.

Really frustrating.

How I fixed it.

Simple........Went to electronics component centre and purchased a 10k ohm dual gang potentiometer (pot).

The pot that was originally fitted in my EX-1 was a 20k ohm.

de-soldered the 6 pins on the the simple printed circuit board (pcb) using a soldering iron and solder sucker.

Little bit of knowledge here helped as the 10k pot i bought was a different size so had to hardwire it instead of direct pcb connection.

Anyway. £1.50.  about 1/2 an hour. Fixed and perfect. Full swells and sweeps. Hope this can help someone.

5. Updating the THH12 Mic/Transmitter (XD-V55, XD-V70, XD-V75)

6. Updating the THH06 Mic/Transmitter (XD-V30. XD-35)

Q: How do I perform a Factory Reset ("reflash") on my Variax 300/500/600/700/705?

A: See the following link for the reflash procedure:

Q: The strings on my Variax Steel string are breaking consistently at the saddle piece.  How can this be resolved?

A: There may be a "burr in the saddle", meaning that there is an edge cutting into the string and causing it to break. Depending on where the string is breaking you may need to replace the piezo, the saddle piece, or both pieces. Please contact an authorized Service Center for more information.

Q: I am getting a high-pitched “squeal” when I have both the ¼” TRS cable and the Variax cable plugged into my PODxt/X3 or Vetta.  How do I eliminate this?

A: The high-pitched squeal is indicative of an overload of the power input buffers, as the unit is receiving power from both the TRS and the Variax Digital Cable.  You will need to unplug one of the cables to remove the high-pitch noise.

Q: What happens if I leave my Variax plugged into an amp while using batteries (not using the power supply)?

A: If you leave your Variax plugged into your amp and are not using the power supply you will drain your batteries. If you remember to turn the volume knob on your Variax all the way down, the guitar will go into a low power 'standby' mode, but the batteries will still be draining (although at a substantially slower rate). Remember to unplug your Variax if you have finished a soundcheck and are heading off to dinner somewhere before your gig.

Q: I have a dead string on my 300/500/600/700 (electric or acoustic) guitar - where can I get a replacement piezo?

A: Replacement Piezo pickup/bridge saddle pieces can be purchased directly from the Line 6 webstore:

Q: When I first plug it in the sound goes on and off like the power is being turned off and on and I hear a constant click...click...click...through the amp?

A: The problem sounds like it's a battery issue. If the battery's power drops below a current point, even though the batteries may seem good, the guitar will cut in and out. Even if you connect the power A/B box the guitar will still cut in and out. When this occurs, you must disconnect or change the batteries.

Q: Where can I get a replacement neck and/or body for my Variax guitar?

A: You can order your Variax replacement neck or body from Warmoth Instruments.

Q: Can the Model Select knob on the Variax 300/600 be calibrated?

A: No, the Model Select knob on the Variax 300/600 cannot be calibrated.  If the model knob is "out of sync", try reflashing your instrument.  If you are still having problems with the model select knob not selecting the correct model, you will need to have the unit serviced at your local Line 6 service center.

Q: How do I calibrate the Model Select knob on the Variax 500/700?

A:  Here are the instructions on how to calibrate the Model Select knob on the Variax 500/700:

*Please make sure that the output from the Variax 500/700 is plugged into an amplifier or monitoring source to hear the audio beeps from the guitar.

1. Unplug RJ45 cable from guitar.

2. Turn off Power (disconnect ¼" TRS cable from guitar).

3. Turn the volume up.

4. Pull model selector knob "up" and away from the guitar body and set it to position Custom 1.

5. Set pickup selector to 4th (neck-middle) position.

6. Set tone knob to middle position.

7. Turn on power (connect ¼" TRS cable to guitar).

ONCE INITIALIZED, YOU WILL HAVE APPROX. 13 SECONDS TO COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE:

8. Turn tone control to min and then max.

9. You will now hear a beep sequence come from the amp or monitor source the Variax is plugged into. (The beeps will NOT come from inside the guitar itself.)

10. Turn model selector from "Custom 1" through all positions up to "Custom 2" this should be timed to approximately 1 second per physical step. (Counting: "one, one thousand", making sure to turn the pot on the one).

11. You will hear a low-high-low beep when completed.

12. Model selector will now be calibrated.

13. Press the Model Select knob back in to the guitar body to the "down" position.

If you hear the low-high-low beep prior to completing the entire rotation of the model select knob, unplug the ¼" TRS cable from guitar and start over again until the timing is correct.

Q: How do I calibrate the strings on a Variax Bass 700/705?

A: To Activate String Calibration Mode:

1.Press down and hold the VOLUME knob, then power up the bass as follows:
a.plug in a TRS cable connected to a powered XPS power supply, or
b.plug in a VDI cable which is connected to a powered Bass PODxt Live.
2.The LED on the bass will appear to be orange or red (not green - if the LED is green, try again).  Release the VOLUME knob after confirming that the light turned on orange/red.***

*** Note:  If the light does not light up orange/red, make sure that you are able to press down on the Volume knob like a button.  If it does not feel like a button, or if the knob does not travel down enough because it is to close to the pickguard, you should try removing the knob and pressing down on the Volume stem.

In String Calibration Mode, all modeling is bypassed and the level of each string can be adjusted individually. To confirm you're in String Calibration Mode, listen to several Models, including a Synth Model; they should all sound the same: direct piezo.

Important Note: As per the instructions below, the BLEND knob is used to adjust the volume of each string. The BLEND knob has a center detent, and that detent equals the Factory level volume for each selected string. You should adjust string levels from the center detent as a reference. Boosting levels too much may result in distortion, which is not good. For best results, listen to all strings and determine which ones may be too loud or too soft, then adjust accordingly, leaving the other strings at their detent levels.

To Calibrate Individual Strings: (steps 5a & 5b for 5-string only)

*After successfully powering up in String Calibration Mode, monitor the Variax Bass in the usual way, with the Volume knob at max, plugged into a bass amp, PODxt Live, etc.

1a.Rotate MODEL SELECT knob to the 1st Model, VinJ, to select the 1st string (G).
1b.Turn BLEND knob up or down to balance the G string level with the other strings.

2a.Rotate MODEL SELECT knob to the 2nd Model, ModJ, to select the 2nd string (D).
2b.Turn BLEND knob up or down to balance the D string level with the other strings.

3a.Rotate MODEL SELECT knob to the 3rd Model, PreBass, to select the 3rd string (A).
3b.Turn BLEND knob up or down to balance the A string level with the other strings.

4a.Rotate MODEL SELECT knob to the 4th Model, Manta, to select the 4th string (E).
4b.Turn BLEND knob up or down to balance the E string level with the other strings.

5a.Rotate MODEL SELECT knob to the 5th Model, Clang, to select the 5th string (B).
5b.Turn BLEND knob up or down to balance the B string level with the other strings.

When all strings sound in balance, press down on the MODEL SELECT knob to exit String Calibration Mode. The LED will turn green and your level changes will be saved.

* Rotate the MODEL SELECT knob to load a Model and return to normal operation

• An audio "clicking" artifact in the chorus effect has been removed.
  
• Other minor bug fixes

Hello, I have a Relay 50 that works fine by itself. I recently bought an extra transmitter for it. I'm not an idiot, I put in new batteries, tried all of the channels with Hi and Lo power settings. I have really exhausted all of the options in the book. The transmitter has power, Red indicator, when I make noise on the guitar the Green indicator tells me that the transmitter is getting the signal but the Receiver on the pedal board is getting nothing. I don't know if the unit is faulty? I bought it new... There is a difference in the units during startup. The new unit says "rf 2" in the screen during power up, the original unit does not. The manual does make mention of there being 2 "rf" channels but I'll be danmed if I can figure how to change between the two. I need help! I am a working musician and down time is not good. 

Below is a 4 part tutorial that calls out some tweaks, tips, and optimizations you can do to your Vista PC to make it perform better for audio recording. All of the tips called out are directly from our Windows Optimization guide which can be downloaded in PDF form at:

Q: What are Mobile In™ digital input adaptor and Mobile POD® app?

A: Mobile In is a digital input adaptor that connects your guitar or a stereo line-level audio source to your Apple® iPhone® 4S, iPhone® 4, iPad® (3rd generation), iPad® 2 or iPad®. Learn more Mobile POD is a free app that lets you rock anytime you want with 64 fully tweakable Line 6 models.Hear them in action

Q: Why doesn't Mobile In work with my iPod touch 4G?

A: At this time, iPod touch 4G only works with digital audio interfaces that include both audio inputs and audio outputs. This limitation is built into the iPod touch and nothing that the interface manufacturer can affect. Some digital guitar interfaces for iOS devices, including Mobile In and models from other manufacturers, contain inputs but no outputs and as a result aren't recognized by iPod touch 4G. This is why Line 6 does not list iPod touch 4G as a supported iOS device for Mobile In.

Q: Will a Lightning adapter work with Mobile In?

A: As it stands, we do know that using an adapter works. It is not packaged with the unit because we cannot assume that all users will need it.

A: There are 64 fully adjustable models based on celebrated vintage and modern gear. 32 guitar amplifiers, 18 stompbox and rack effects, and 16 guitar cabinets. Learn more

A: Mobile In has two inputs: 1/8-inch guitar input with 110 dB dynamic range and 1/8-inch stereo line input with 98 dB dynamic range. (One high-quality 6-foot guitar cable with 1/8-inch and 1/4-inch ends included.) Mobile In supports up to 24-bit/48 kHz digital audio.

Q: Where do I download the Mobile POD app?

A: Mobile POD app can be downloaded for free directly from your Apple® devices using the App Store^SM app.

Q: Does Mobile In interface work with the AmpliTube iRig apps?

Q: What kind of cable do I use to connect my instrument to the Mobile In?

A: To connect a instrument to the Mobile In, use the included 1/8" to 1/4" guitar cable. Connect the ¼” plug into the output of your instrument, then Connect the 1/8" plug into the ‘GUITAR IN’ on the Mobile In adaptor. Click here for a video tutorial on Mobile In Connections.

Q: What kind of cable do I use to connect my stereo line level keyboard or mixer to the Mobile In?

A: To connect a stereo line level audio source such as keyboard or mixer to the Mobile In, use a 1/8" Stereo Male to Dual 1/4" Tip Sleeve Male cable. Connect both of the ¼” Tip Sleeve connections to the left and right outputs of your audio source, then connect the 1/8" Stereo Male end of the cable to the ‘LINE IN’ on the Mobile In adaptor. Click here for a video tutorial on Mobile In Connections.

Q: Can I use Airplay or Bluetooth headphones with Mobile In?

A: The current version of Mobile POD does not support the use of airplay or bluetooth headphones.

Q: Does the Mobile In work with Android products?

A: Many of you have asked why Line 6 mobile products only work with Apple devices, not Android. Since many smartphone and tablet manufacturers support the Android operating system and have different connectors, it is unfortunately very difficult to develop and support products for these various hardware configurations. Apple devices share a standard, 30-pin dock connector which is why we’re able to create a single hardware solution for these devices.
