Just some highlights before we jump into a more detailed report on what has been altered / improved and added. Just let us say, they listened once again and interacted to give us what we want.

Vetta V2.5 - Upgrade Notice... 10-04-06 As an extended service we want to recommend that if you're going to upgrade that you do this with the help of the Monkey. Do it as a complete install so including the model defaults and factory presets. Afterwards you can reload your own patches using a sysex program like MIDI-OX. There have been reports on different forums that related to a switching delay after the upgrade. This ONLY occurs if you DON'T do the complete upgrade as referred to in the paragraph above here. All reports of the switching delay have been gone after the three steps have been fully implemented. Follow the three step guide beneath this post and scroll down, then you'll be fine without having to go through the whole process again. Please do not use any Line 6 Edit version after you did the upgrade to V2.5, it could get you into trouble. Allthough some people refer to it as 'save' this isn't the case. Line 6 is working on Line 6 Edit 3.0. So First things First... source:VETTAVILLE.NL |
First Things First... 07-04-06 Okay, okay, of course you want to get the new software in a.s.a.p.! We Know. But first back up your patches! Just in case you're getting into trouble you can always get back to them once things have cleared up. So first things first, Back up your patches using Line 6 Edit 2.03 / 2.05. Make also sure you've got another program MIDI program installed like MIDI OX. Why? Because the new Vetta V2.5 isn't supported by Line 6 Edit 2.03 / 2.05. So you need a different program to back up your patches. If you haven't got the free program get it at the link. As you know work on Line 6 Edit 3.0 is underway. This version will replace all previous versions of Line 6 Edit, combining support for all products, including the integrated browser for online tone library access from within Line 6 Edit. We expect to have this new version of Line 6 Edit available for free online download. One other thing, in the past people using a HUB during the upgrade got into trouble, so if you can avoid it...

Secondly Install the new software... 07-04-06 Okay, okay, of course you want to get the new software in a.s.a.p.! We Know. So after you've back-up your patches. Get ready to download. Use the monkey, it'll completly fill you in on what to and when. The complete installation process will take about 20 minutes to complete. If you want to resinstall your own patches next it'll take another few minutes. But first back up your patches! Just in case you're getting into trouble you can always get back to them once things have cleared up. If you went through these steps there's just one more thing to do before you can enjoy your equipment to the fullest. So read on... source:LINE 6 / VETTAVILLE.NL |
Thirdly - Recalibrate and dance away... 07-04-06 Now that you've done the steps 1 and 2 it's always good to recallibrate your floorboard after a new upgrade.

The Wah Models... 07-04-06 So the there are several new Wah Wah's in the V2.5 Vetta software. Just to get you a glimpse of which once they are here's a summary and then a complete despribtion of what you can do with them.

More Wahwah Wackyness... 08-08-06 So the there are several new Wah Wah's in the V2,5 Vetta software. Just to get you a glimpse of which once they are here's a summary and then a complete despribtion of what you can do with them.
Everyone plays different, everybody hears different, every uses his gear different. There are plenty of options on wah's if you go to your local music store. And all pedals have something unique to them. So what do you need? Different wah's to play with. Well behold, there are 9 options to choose from. Grab your pick, select and play! Vetta Wah Fassel Weeper Chrome Chrome Custom Throaty Conductor Colorful Custom
One thing to remember that the wah's are already been level adjusted, meaning that they won't 'suck' some signal level out when engaged like the authentic wah's would. So no worries there, that's the nice thing about digital modeling, you can have everything as convinient as you want it. Thanks Line 6. So that's a lot of Wahwah Wackyness ain't it. source:LINE 6 / VETTAVILLE.NL |
The Bender - Bend it and Blend it... 07-04-06 Wham Bham thank you mam. Whell mam ain't the one to thank now is she? Nonetheless it's in. You can find it in the stomp category under the Synth/Filter section. On the last page it says Bender. Line 6's take on the classic Wahm Bham pitch shifting effect, this baby's called the Bender. There are three parameters to give you full control:
To activate the pedal go to the footcontrol knob on your vetta, press it and select Bender for pedal 1. Then activate the right stompbox (1,2 or 3) where you've assigned it to. Now you're ready to dive deep down into this new addition and Squeel Baby! If you wanna activate the Bender in a patch simply press the assigned stompbox on/off. TIP: Be sure to have your assigned pedal in a Toe or Heel position before you engage the stompbox that's been assigned. This avoids some 'out of tune' sounds during your performance. P.S. : In theory it's possible to assign three Benders to one pedal, so blend the Benders. source:LINE 6 / VETTAVILLE.NL |

Variax & Vetta 2.5 - Guide to Wireless Communications... 01-11-06 In the latest Vetta II update, Version 2.5, a new unplublicized feature was added at request of some high profile artists. This feature allows a Vetta II ampliflier to cummunicate with a Variax guitar wirelessly with some special cables, an off the shelff MIDI wireless system and an audio wireless system.
If this is what you would like to experiment with please read on. Wireless communication between a Vetta and a Variax falls into the category of an "unsupported, use at your own risk" feature. (it's a category of one!) Note: There is no intension on Line 6's part to offer a commercial solution for wireless communication between Vetta II and Variax guitar, however in the spirit of supporting the needs of our community Line 6 decided to share this bit of information with you. While a VDI cable provides bi-directional communication between a Vetta and a Variax, the wireless link described on these pages and document provides one-way communication from Vetta to the Variax. This solution simply transmits Guitar Model patch change data, as well as tone pot data to the Variax, as they were programmed into the Vetta's patches, which must be done with a Variax connected to a Vetta with a VDI cable.
How / Why it works: When the Variax is physically connected to the Vetta via the VDI cable, the Vetta reconfigures to accept digital audio and digital audio sync from the VDI interface. Vetta also recieved patch, patch name and tone pot information from the guitar whenever somthing is changed, that way it can store and recall the appropriate Variax information within it's own patch structure. Variax W/L (wireless) mode allows the Vetta to operate, (internal sync, analog input) without the Variax connected to the VDI connector, howver it still send the Variax patch information out via the VDI connector whenever a Vetta patch is recalled.
Programming patches for use in the Variax W/L mode:
How to set up your Vetta II and a Variax Guitar to operate wirelessly. First you're going to need some things to get this all together. Here's a shopping list:
Tech instructions: Build the cables, mark the Vetta side cable with the extra electronic components: Vetta, mark the Variax Cable as well. The cables are not revirsible, so please mark them to avoid confusion at critical moments in your performing career.
Click on the pictures to enlarge Putting it all together:
So there you have it, everything you'll need to get your Vetta / Variax rig up and running wireless at a gig. Note: This is an "unsupported" feature in Vetta, and yet it is something Line 6 wanted to share with the Vetta community. A great source for advanced Vetta capabillities is the Vetta community that largely resides on the Line 6 forums, Institute of Noise and Vettaville.com and Vettaville.nl sites. Thanks go out to Line 6 for going the extra mile on this one. Oh, and you want a .pdf to make your personal wireless system, no worries, just click here to download

Vetta 2.5 - Vetta MIDI footcontroller... 10-03-07 GM arts, a Institute of Noise Forum Member shared this info with Vettaville.nl. GM arts made a personal MIDI footcontroller for Vetta (and can be designed to be used for other gear aswell). He's sharing the info so you can build your own. "For Line 6 Vetta users like me who need a volume pedal and wah available on every patch, there's no capability for any other type of expression pedal. So what to do? Build your own, of course. This is a flexible and generic MIDI foot controller that you can customise to do nearly anything you want. You can have any combination of patch changes, custom controllers (for effects off/on, including some not even on the longboard), and system exclusive messages to change Vetta parameters. These can be controlled by any combination of foot switches and pedals you wish." Please note this info is not from Line 6, but a felllow Vetta owner sharing his info and knowledge. Thanks go out to GM arts. Source: GM Arts |
