Yeah, that's what I did.  I'll update this thread when they get back to me.
 
Can somebody check the Input Level Adjustment screen btw, is it working for others?  Not working at all here.

Level Adjustment is working fine for me!

Thanks - let us know.  I too have been using the one in X2a and have been wanting to upgrade (missed the initial offer).

Although the full version is WELL worth the money for most common styles I found I was able to dial up a good tone with the Producer version rather easily unlike with GR4 Sonar. I found GR4 Sonar to be next to useless for what I was doing. It had some okay rock sounds but I could never get MY tone(s) out of it so I upped to GR5 which was a lot better but still not nearly as good as TH2 IMO.
 
So I'd say even if you have to wait a little bit for an offer through the Cake store poke around at TH2 Producer. It's likely you'll be able to get where you want unless you are looking to do some crazy out there effects. Also we got a bunch of free presets last winter. Not sure if those got dumped right into the current version or if even still available but you might want to check your account or get a hold of Cake/Overloud to see if they are available.
 
Cheers.

Bah! :-)
 
Must be my end then.  I'll give it another poke this evening...

Just curious... is this just in one project or is it consistent? Like are you using it in an old X2 project? And not to be a RTFM guy but I found that there are a ton of little (and some BIG) not so obvious things about TH2 that are revealed in the manual. It's not a very long read but because TH2 is kind of... uh, "different" than anything I've ever seen in regards to layout and operation it is very worthwhile going through everything and testing it all out.
 
Might be some kind of routing thing going on or a button is disabled somewhere. I seem to recall having something similar happen when I first tried it but I totally forget. Cheers.

Haven't checked it yet, I got carried away trying to get some joy out of a Line 6 HD400 which I bought recently.  That thing is going back to the shop!  It's worse than my years-old POD 2 and its own firmware upgrade has borked it.
 
Regarding Overloud/TH2 Producer, I'm in a slightly difficult spot now but suffice to say good news is on the horizon.

I got an HD500 this past summer. It does a pretty good job on it's own. What's hilarious is now most of the time it serves as a midi controller for TH2 installed on a laptop! LOL!

Well, the HD400 was collected today free of charge (GAK's customer service really is tops, I definitely recommend those guys if you're in the UK) and best of all the Input Level Adjustment window in TH2 Producer is working! :-)

Sorry you didn't like HD400. I still haven't scratched the surface on this HD500. I tend to use more bread and butter classic rock, country and jazz sounds so it works pretty well for me. I do love using it as the controller for TH2! I'm glad to hear your Level Adjustment issue has been resolved. Now, go play your guitar! LOL
