  groquick's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Bye bye Line6"

  Getting Started

  Unable to install Windows 7. It must go through the XP mode ... Not very practical :-(

  Suitability/Performance

  I use a Dell laptop running Windows 7 Pro x64. The Workbench is the only hardware that I use which has an incompatibility with my system.

  Overall Opinion

  Used for 2 years. The concept is well done overall. The software is simple to use. Unfortunately, Line6 has decided to focus on other interfaces (Pod XT Live and X3). Without this little box, my Variax loses some of its appeal. Too bad!
  
  
  
  I waited more than six months prior to using my Pod XT under Windows 7. Line6 shown as seriously as Logitech in the development of its drivers ... In the future, I would think 2 times before buying another product of this brand.

  Getting Started

  No pb during the install, I go through the pod xt live not need the USB box, simply download the software free on the line6 site and run the setup and connect the Variax to the pod xt live with calbe rj45 right and you're jou ...

  Suitability/Performance

  P4 2.4 GHz + 2GB RAM and 600GB of HDD and tri-screens, no crashes, just remember to install java in the install

  Overall Opinion

  After 4 months of utilistation I am delighted, the possibilities are enormous even one little place microphones onto the bottom of the neck of the guitar which give virtual sound very serious or behind the bridge for its acute, we just also after a few adjustments line6edit use (for pod xt live possessor) and the workbench at the same time which is great for creating unique sounds, tunings and virtual covers are EXCELLENT but it must be strong enough to play with headphones or a ca low volume on "hear" the chords ring and it can disturb but what a pleasure to change his guitar and one foot pressure for AIM least I have more options there at the acoustic guitar because no bcp of settings by tuning and volume (a simulation of thick nylon strings or cash aurra ... p'tete been welcome at the next update;)), I regret line6 that did not make the same online system to exchange preset but fortunately http://www.instituteofnoise.com/ site offers full patch for the Variax (and other pod etc. ....) I was I again do it again this election ...

  Getting Started

  Easy on my PC (Pentium4 2GHz, multimedia and config)
  
  saying anything we follow the install instructions and then connects (I have the USB hardware directly to the Variax cable and SPECIFICATIONS for VETTAI-THERNET-) ... and it works great.

  Suitability/Performance

  No bp of instability after two months of use

  Overall Opinion

  Easy job for a ergonomic top: the notches are clear, more explicit visuals agrments (choice boxes, microphones, sleeves, positioning microphones ... mouse) including the alternate tunings ...
  
  can "make" arm circumference of prototypes that sound ...
  
  I will say that I especially like the principle of preset alternate tunings will integrate with the Variax which n'tait not possible on variax500 (unlike the Variax Acoustic 700 that intgre-officio) condition to choose senss stuff (especially at the capos) ...
  
  I dplore: the lack of innovative presets (upgrades to line6 clown: I AIM-made for the simultaneous ovation, or other signs of electrical ...) but the software calls for the hack ... it is his calling and is fulfilling its rle on that! but hey, libraries of sounds by Muls line6 would not be bad ....
  
  outstanding quality price ratio: 85euros for a guitar shop and lab violin .... !!!!!
  
  Note that the USB Casing conversion sailed without pb ds the front pocket of opinion gigbag ... therefore extreme mobility for those with a laptop PC or Mac: you can take as many guitars and presets (virtual tunings) you want to run ....
  
  
  
  I stay on my position from another post (on the variax500): line6 really poustouflants offers products, especially for home studio enthusiasts ... the modlisation is a real plus for the world of guitar that I am unable to mount an electronic or a basic DIY Ralite I am in the guitar maker and I m I qqs protos crs I really like that sound .... and it does not care whether it's his fender, gibson, gretsch or refund ... Martin Fidler heaven guitarist I tell you ...

  Getting Started

  The installation does not pose as me. Prior to the upgrade it is necessary USB drivers PODXT Live in my case, the firmware of the PODxt Live and that of my Variax 500.

  Suitability/Performance

  PC: Athlon 2.6Ghz, 512MB Ram, Windows 2000.
  
  It works perfectly

  Overall Opinion

  I use it for two weeks and I must say I t ds sduit The beginning.
  
  The big intrt for my case is more than the alternate tuning Fast Fashion a new guitar (body, pick up ....)
