Toneport UX2

Am toying with the idea of investing in a Line6 ux2, as it seems a really good piece of kit.
Question:
Can the ux2 be plugged into the Beyringer mixer and the signal be sent through m-audio on-board sound card. (Really happy with the m-audio)
I believe the UX2 has a built in soundcard and I don't want it to conflict.

And so little money with Christmas's just round the corner Bill...Should be thinking of the kids really, not buying toys for myself.
Its adictive all this music stuff.
I don't know if I can justify the UX2 as most of my stuff is Proteus keyboard.... Only use the old guitar occasionally.

BTW did you use a metal slider on your latest tune Bill?

Thanks for that Doc.
BTW Whats iLok

Hi Alan

It's a form of 'dongle' - basically a piece of hardware that must be attached to a computer for a piece of software on that computer to work properly, they're used mainly as an anti-piracy device.

They can have one big advantage though - as all the registration details are on the dongle it means you can have the software on a number of PC's without having to individually licence each copy.

At the moment, Line 6's software has an associated hardware dongle that is interlinked to the software in some way; the GearBox software and the TonePorts are a good example - the GearBox software doesn't work if the TonePort isn't connected, even if you are not using the inputs of the TonePort.

I think Doc's suggestion to see which way Line 6 is going to run with is good advice - mind you, I did spot that GAK are currently running an £99 offer on the UX2 → http://www.guitarampkeyboard.com/en/line6-toneport/68598 - its RRP is over £170 but you'd never expect to pay that much normally (Dolphin have it for £109 at the moment).

I have the combination of MAudio delta 1010 and the UX2 and I'm afraid it does conflict with all Cakewalk programs. If I have the UX2 pluged in, it is the only soundcard option for audio in all my Cakewalk programs. I record guitar with UX2 then do vocals and synths with the M-Audio card after I unplug the UX2 and restart Cakewalk.

Alan,

One thing Strummy didn't mention is that the iLok key can hold several licenses (130 if I recall correctly). It's nice if you are using more than one software package that requires an external key dongle that is iLok compatible. For me it works out great as I use an iLok for my copy of Melodyne, and I'm looking at some other software that utilizes the key as well. The downside is it eats a USB port that could otherwise be used for something else (not that I would recommend USB for any type of processing). The other advantage is when going from studio to studio you can just take your key with you. At times I wish my cakewalk software utilized iLok....

Just going to stay with the one Music software Doc..More than enough for me. I really love messing ,but am not as commited as You and Strummy.
Most of the time you fellas speak a completely different language in technical terms as well as all the great banter.
