My new Tone Port UX2

[MADmemphis564]

Can sound be recorded fristly then effects put over it at all? or that is not possible? Thanks

[bjorni9285]

Behind blue eyes?

[VictorSinha666]

thumbs up if u know the song!

[Lowiebeatz]

Can u record vocals with this is it good is it usb

[kanaisk]

What type of speakers do u have.

[timpham27]

do u know how to solve the problem with cracking sound? thanks a lot man

[Mohamed636]

hey i have a question. How can i connect my studio monitors to the ux2. Each monitor requires its own AUX cable but then im only able to connect 1 because theres only 1 speakers input in the ux2.

[PumpkinKyuubi]

my ux2 is probably the best investment i have ever made. much cheaper alternative to owning a load of pedals!

[mosheln]

hahaha you have this and you record with a cemra?!?!? hahahaha!!1

[Wolvve]

HEy mate, are you running this on a mac or a pc?

[structolipid]

Hi, on pc

[XTheseXShadowsXBurnX]

are the tone port ux2 and the pod studio ux2 the same?

if not what are the differences?

[CypherThanatos]

@XTheseXShadowsXBurnX

they are the same pod studio is just the new version.

[davecochran]

Can you record vocals with this too? I don't see why you couldn't, it has 2 xlr inputs, but do they have phantom power?

[deathmast403]

@davecochran i was wondering the same thing

[MrSkullbass]

17 people dont know what it's like... to own a Tone Port UX2.

[kleinebudde]

@PreviousGod Yes you can, or headphones etc...

[mafejr]

limp bizkit?

[Arbiterisl33t69]

@mafejr

The Who

[masterofjustice88]

Does is connect from your amp to the interface, or does the connection come directly from the guitar?

[justinhall954]

@masterofjustice88 can be both, and more. you can use it as a mic preamp if u record a cab with a mic, as a DI for your guitar, as a DI from your amp output if it has one, and other stuff too.

[EvilHippy38]

At first I thought you were gonna play the bridge to Master Of Puppets. Should have!

[SaJAn061]

hii . ..

can i record mic and guitar at the same time ???

[1700korn]

is this song "behind blue eyes" ?

[DJ0KNUF]

why you didnt record it with the tone port?!

[Sephiroth78941]

So do you just plug it in the computer using a usb cable?

[stratocaster60096]

Is there anyway to put drums over your playing?

[ShimmySystem]

Here's a question, can you set a mic and guitar at the same time to separate tracks and monitor them at the same time?

[structolipid]

You can monitor them at the same time, but you can only record one chanel at time.

[Dewx30]

@structolipid i think in your recording software you can set what is gonna be sent to each channel and record at the same time

[mnemonic007]

@ShimmySystem Yes you can. See "POD Farm 2 Recording Setup Guide - Audio Driver Configuration" manual for UX2 at line6.com. UX2 and UX1 can send 2x separate stereo track, UX8 8x stereo track, POD XT 1x stereo track. Those gears send separate signal and of course you have to use line6ASIO drivers in your DAW to recognize separate signal and then you can record it. Look through the manual. (Chapter 2.5)

[psp777]

@ShimmySystem yes you can record to separate tracks. It depend on your DAW software. I use logic 9 and it works very well

[forceflames2]

how much does this cost?

[TheGuitarFaction]

@forceflames2 160€

[nicoman9]

how does the monitor work do you just plug speakers into the monitor in or what

[adelarge88]

How is the latency on this item?

[structolipid]

Very low.

[redoubt9000]

@structolipid any trailing such as when you're recording in the span of two minutes and you're falling out of sync?

any word on the win 7 driver support?

[bram07021993]

@adelarge88 this thing has a built in processor, so it handles stuff on it's own. it also has it's own audio card so everything is inside that boxie :D this reduces latency as much as possible I think

[deathmast403]

all i can really find are pod interface for recording, i was wondering if anyone knew if i could just buy pod farm or the recording soft ware and the buy a plug in instead of the hole thing , or just whats the cheapest thing i could do for recording

[sojaboon112]

why dont you record with your comp?

[xgenuinox]

can you record with this?

[structolipid]

yes

[kitarrikangelanejuzz]

very good! but how much it costs, i wanna buy that!

[Cbeezy333]

@kitarrikangelanejuzz ...i have the ux 1 version, the one he has is about $200, the ux1 is 160 all together that i recomend to you because  its the same thing, only you can only record yourself and a vocalists really the ux2 is more for like band recordings and personal use as well i guess

[kitarrikangelanejuzz]

Can I connect the speakers with ux2

[structolipid]

@kitarrikangelanejuzz 

[structolipid]

Yes, you can.

[structolipid]

yes

[dante2k8]

how do you switch from distortion to clean, i mean does it have a pedal?

[AirZealand]

@dante2k8 the ux2 is for connecting a guitar to the computer,its software like gearbox and podfarm that gives you all the different guitar sounds.

[tefolase]

hey dude i need hep pluging it please reply

[tefolase]

how do you plug it???

[JMDV1]

can i plug my 6505 trough this instead of using the effects of the toneport?

[JMDV1]

can i plug my 6505 trough this instead of using the effects of the toneport?

[RO80T]

is there much delay?

[AirZealand]

@RO80T theres no delay,its just like its plugged into an amp.

[ivncdo0809]

hi! how does it work?? i have never used one of these, always played trough an amp, how i should use one of these? i mean should i make this connection: guitar--->amp--->audio interface---->pc

or

guitar----->audio interface--->pc

sorry for ignorance but i haven't ever use one of this...

[MtnXfreeride]

I was wondering this as well, I play drums but I would get this for my guitar player, Can the guitar and bass player each have an amp going but also send a clean signal to the UX2 for recording and later processing. (Just have the amp so everyone else can hear who is playing at the same time)

[alapunk13]

@MtnXfreeride i guess you can split the signal between the amp and the toneport

[ivncdo0809]

hi! how does it work?? i have never used one of these, always played trough an amp, how i should use one of these? i mean should i make this connection: guitar--->amp--->audio interface---->pc

or

guitar----->audio interface--->pc

sorry for ignorance but i haven't ever use one of this...

[jaimiecurrie]

@ivncdo0809 guitar----->audio interface--->pc mate. Are if u have a decent mic,

Guitar----amp------mic-----int­erface---pc--- (if you want to use your own amp). there is pod studio(Amp models+Fx ) and ableton live lite included so u can record. :) hope that answerd your question :)

[Arktik83]

@ivncdo0809 It's guitar----->audio interface---->pc mate. The ux2 is like an audio interface like guitar rig so you just plug in your guitar in to the jack, fire up the software it comes with then play. Your standard pc speakers will colour the sound a bit but you can hook up external speakers via the back.

Hope this helps.

[savasavram]

So can I use it for a live??? With a laptop perhaps?

[ScreaMology]

Limp bizkit :D ! great product :D

[structolipid]

The UX2 is in other words a soundcard. You can actually use Guitar rig, or other guitars emu. I use gearbox, pod farm and guitar rig.

[ivncdo0809]

@structolipid

[CTROCK]

does the ux2 have a EQ for your sound

[dalundo]

the eq is on the software. you just eq it on your computer

[Tuscopa]

@knguro This one is called a Toneport UX2, the black one a Podstudio UX2, but I do believe the hardware is the same. The software that comes with it is diferent. It used to be at least. The red one brings Gearbox software. The black one brings Podfarm (which in my mind is a better product-more recent and with a better user interface).

Hope that helps.

[structolipid]

The color and the software.

[hiladelphia]

that sound was better for master of puppets and limp biskit sounds good lol, how did you record this?

[structolipid]

Using cubase. Thanks!

[berryion]

hey so is this better than one of those small moblile M-AUDIO interfaces?

[topgunmaniac]

the toneport works very well with the REAPER recording software compared to ableton,,

[CTROCK]

no on and off switch on this unit so how do u turn it off? can i just unplug the usb cable from the compture to turn it off will this hurt my ux2? or do i have to leave the usb cable from the compture than turn it off?

[YoungMalcomX1]

what does a toneport do

[sickstring980]

What do you use for sound? Do you use studio monitors or just your computer ones

[structolipid]

Just computer ones.

[YoungMalcomX1]

what does a toneport do please explain

[XinBiDe]

It turns your computer into a guitar studio/guitar amplifier.

[Whyrendog]

I would buy this or a GX though, the sounds and flexibility are awesome. You can pre eq your sound quite easily and get exactly the sound you want right up front.

[SONIK198666]

I have the GX i had problems with it, it is really cool but i had a problem with the sound i only got it out of my left speaker so i took it a part and fixed it myself because it was discontinued the converted it in to the line 6 POD studio but definately go for ux2

[FeelPrintRock]

what's song is that, please?

[structolipid]

Behind Blue Eyes

[TomMunster]

I'm planning on getting one of these. Whats the latency like on it though?

[monoBAYO]

None what so ever.

[Whyrendog]

I have a Toneport GX and if it's anything like that, it is good BUT the recording latency in cakewalk was very high as compared to a cheap MAudio sound card. You almost need to have a PC for the sound and run it out to hardware or another PC with a low latency card.

This may be different, but they all use the Tone Direct monitoring so that might tell you something.

[silva24e]

does anyone know any other recording software which are free or cheaper than ableton live. i bought my toneport ux2 but ableton live is just a demo and is so damn expensive.

[deathleafmusic]

get audacity if ur looking for free software...

its pretty decent..

But i would recommend Cubase

i like it..

[Nonethelesst]

Mixcraft ;)

[FinalFight323]

Reaper

It's kickass, professional quality software and only costs $60 for the full (and only) version :)

[MaghoxFr]

hola, podés grabar multipista en esta interfase, estoy por comprarme una (no sé si esta o la kb37)

[MaghoxFr]

hola, podés grabar multipista con esta interfase? estoy interesado en comprar una ( sobretodo el kb37)

[SPEEDFREAK200008]

how do you record video and use the tone port at the same time ??

[ultimatewierdness]

Ever heard of a camera? ^_^

[Mangledcorpse]

lol

[odens2]

hi everybody!!! what is the difference between tone port and studio ux2?? help plz!

[lejink]

couple questions, id like to use this as a preamp into a head for poweramp into my celestion loudspeakers. how to accomplish this. can i just connect the line out from the tone port to the input of my 100w head?

also, im really after a scooped mids sound. like trivium manages to do oh so well. how convincing is it on this unit?

im not into spending 5,000 on a rack for that sound lol, but a very close copy would be nice!

love the mic inputs on this too, have you done much with the mics?

[structolipid]

Hi! I realy don`t know, because i connect my unit to the PC-speakers. And I use the mic inputs for song recording.

[braindrillskater69]

so can you get nice death metal tones from these things without buying the metal shop add on? it doesnt have to be perfect, i just have to make an extra 50 bucks to buy the metal shop

[structolipid]

Yes. If you like, listen my sacrifice cover or One last breath cover, the sound comes from the UX2 with wav quality.

[pansy954]

with it can record two guitars? or need mix it? and if needed mix can be?

[structolipid]

You can use the Cubase or similar software. You can record more than two guitars!

[structolipid]

Hablas español? Si quieres te puedo explicar mas! Solo pregunta.

[soo00oona]

how much is it????

[RolloJay]

about £126

[Hasjhus]

It is about 384$ or cheaper.

[Slipkyes]

what's the difference between a toneport and a pod studio??

[lightoffinthedistanc]

The name, that's all. I know I was kind dumbfounded as well xD

[RolloJay]

one's black and the other one is red xD.

Thats pretty much it really! Plus the pod studio comes with some extra software bundled with it i believe

[mouloudo]

" behind blue eyes" ? :p

[structolipid]

yes!

[mouloudo]

^^  .

[ScubaSteve431]

HELP!!!!!!!, me and some of my friends are trying to start a band and write our own music but we are kinda clueless on the recording part of it, is this a good choice for a couple of high school kids with a limited amount of money

[iLoveOlivaMunn]

i think they designed this specifically for high school students with limited amount of money.

[dappahand]

hi, does this thing come with a beat maker in the softwear? I need to record my backing as well as my guitar in to my pc. Any help would be greatfull.

[oOxI3LACKOUTxOo]

Why does it crash Mixcraft? :(

[caboosekk08]

does this interface work with Cubase? cheers

[hammondsfromtexas]

yes

[greyas]

A notebook? what you mean???

Like the manual?

I have a manual that came with the programn but it doesn't say anything about that! :S

[mudfan1010]

Can anyone care to explain how this works? Thanks.

[Tehtog]

You plug the guitar directly to the toneport or your mic. It connects to your pc and the supplied software emulates different amps and effects.

[xtiplerx]

So basically, wiht this software my sound is limited by the speaker i have on my pc . i dont have great speakers , i have a orange tiny terror and orange ppc12 cab here... is that ugnna go to waste? ?

[NinjaMysteryMovies]

So how do you record stuff on this? Does it work like a microphone except it picks up just the guitar sounds?

And also would it work if I plugged my keyboard in?

[Tehtog]

It is a direct guitar to usb interface, The guitar connects to the toneport, the software emulates the amp chosen. You can plug a guitar into it and no it isnt designed to work with a keyboard, but feasibly it could work.

[Kr4ftw3rk]

Works with my Yamaha MM6 keyboard. I plug in to the two 'line inputs' in the back of the TonePort.

[Maneby]

Thinking of buying a Toneport UX2, though I'm not sure whether I want this 1 with an external midi-keyboard or Toneport KB37 with an integrated keyboard. Separate products will make it easier to handle, not having to carry both of them when I'm just gonna use 1, also I will be able to get more than just 37 notes on the keyboard, which is good.

The only negative thing is that I've heard that the UX2 doesn't work very good with midi,does anyone know anything about that?

Any answers will be helpful

[PrehistoricPinup]

Cool. Today we got the Pod Studio UX2 which is the new version of this Toneport, is the same except black and a better software interface.

[structolipid]

Nice!!!

[greyas]

:S 'cause I already check the requires of my computers! :S but Im not sure!

Please e-mail me! Thanks!

[greyas]

Hi! I have a question....I have the same interface than you... and you that it came with a CD to record right? Life Live I think it's how it's call.

Well every time I run GearBox it works very good but as soon as I run the other program while the other is working... my computer freez :S and I also noticed that if the GearBox is runnig everything in my computer that involves sound, like videos, windows media player.. everything freez!

Do you have and idea of why is this happen?

[structolipid]

Do you have a notebook?

[deathrecycle]

check your sound preferences...you may have your soundcard to play everything..

[jrunknjrowzy]

Hey vids a taddd old, but I was wondering if you ever knew or found any footswitch kinda thing you could hook this up to just to switch between settings and effects with your foot like a stompbox instead of having to click around and whatnot?

[facebook123123]

im also wondering lol

[Connor6c]

Does this plug into the USB drive?

[structolipid]

Correct!!!

[jezus1989]

hey

i'm thinking of getting this but does it include a program when you buy it or do i have to buy a recording program for it too?

thanks!

[structolipid]

The UX2 includes the Ableton software, a demo version. But i prefeer the cubase recording software. :)

[jezus1989]

can i ask how much cubase costst?

thanks

[antoniown]

FREE everythings free with torrents

[AndresGates]

LOL

[kcinut]

do you have a web adress for torrents?

[Boozie65]

The toneport ux2 includes the line6 amp models basic bundle which rocks! I upgraded to the gold bundle. It also came with Ableton Live lite demo which I upgraded to the Live 6.10 with the instument package for $349.00 2 years ago....STEAL! Both products are #1 as far as I'm concerned!

[structolipid]

Welcome and listen on my channel, my Creed cover, using my UX2.

[deathrecycle]

SO IS ANY AMP NEEDED AT ALL?

[k2thecDawg]

Hey I have a pretty big pedal board, will the board and the toneport transfer over alright?

[shadowelite141]

i got one.. im having trouble setting it up so that i could here it without headphones... any ideas?

[trulynot]

You have a direct out in the back that you can run to a Hifi amp or powered speakers and you have a monitor out which i am guessing is for the direct monitoring of signal as you record/play. Muck around with different connections into whatever you want to monitor from whether it be your home stereo, powered monitors or amp.

[Dinkycars]

I use mine with my laptop,

It does go a little slower, But Atleast I can bring it around with me.

[thegibZy]

i bloody love toneports, i got 1 a few days ago. check out the video i uploaded of some of the tones i put up

[MOZZIE246]

is that song behind white eyes? awesome playing by the way!

[structolipid]

Thanks!!! :)

[pitbylllson]

oj. is that a harp?

[happymanrob]

no its delay playing guitar filck bottom 3 strings and play top one at same time as first one technique used in classical guitar but there are plenty other methods on how to make that sort of sound.. He either pre recorded one and played bit on top or vica versa or played chord individually playing notes... Something like that :)

[XtremeRocker827]

Im either getting this or the GX toneport...idk which yet. But they both sound AWESOME to me, and I cant tell much difference between them, so Im sorta leaning towards the GX. WHat kind of effect were you using, and what guitar and amp(or do you need an amp if you are recording with this?)thanks for looking at my billions of questions. :D

[PDM]

If your just gonna stick to your guitar then you should buy the GX, but if in the future your thinking of buying a vocal mic then get this.(DONT GET THE UX1!, i have one and because it doesnt provide 48v+ i have to buy an adapter for 2o to power my condenser mic)

Apart from that there isn't really a difference.

But yeahh,

if your gonna record vocals in the future, from my experience get this (Y) itl save you cash later on.

[Kontlont]

If I want to record, this is the only thing I need right? I've got good speakers on my computer

[PDM]

Yeah (y)

[Kr4ftw3rk]

Yes the Gearbox is plugged into the computer via USB. No power supply needed.

[Tehtog]

I don't know if you have it fixed yet, but the on-the-disc drivers for vista don't work (or are non-existant depending on when you bought it). Go to the Line6 website and download the vista drivers there, that should get you up an running again.

[gerbilho]

Anyone tried the Edirol UA-25EX ? Which one is better?

[dowhat93]

in all the review i read there are lots of complaints about the ableton live software just being a demo.

except, no one's really specific abbout any of the drawbacks or extra downloads you have to make.

itd be much appreciated if someone could fill me in on the flaws.

(just ordered mine today xD)

please and thank you

[structolipid]

I can`t run my UX2 on my new OS, VISTA. Works fine with the old XP. Help me!!!

[wickedmessenger27]

same with me buddy, i bought mine on thursday and can't get the thing working on my brand new laptop with vista. i also need some help!

[structolipid]

I don`t know how..... but it´s works now!!! Line6 device...conflict...internal audio device????

[dirytmagic]

did you get it to work on vista yet!??!

[structolipid]

Work fine on vista!!!

The problems was the chipset, the AMD chipset.

Running fine on intel core2 Quad.

[Inspector93]

I got Gearbox working on XP sp2 and worked fine. Then I installed vista 64bits and installed the special gearbox/drivers version for it and it's working fine. Just be sure than if you are on vista64 you have to install the special gearbox version that you can find on the line6 website.

[deamonpt]

Download the new drivers from line6 site. Worked fine for me ;)

[leefbeef]

great. that ux2 really kicks ass

[structolipid]

Right!!!

[QuoteMe93]

wat software do u use and is dis good fo vocals?!?!

[focusf111]

i have a line 6 spider III 75W. could i run my guitar thru my amp and run a cord from the "direct/headphone out" to the toneport UX2? i want to get the same tone i get when i play thru my amp.
