Well with the way things are going at Line 6 I would still say toneport and standard riffworks. It works fine for me and I like the ability ti have more amp mdels and good vocal presets

Yep. TonePort/GearBox and RiffWorks Standard is the way to go if he's not upgrading from RW 1.1. The inclusion of Amplitube LE and the ability to use other plug-ins makes it worth the extra $30.

Even though I got the free upgrade to RW Line 6 Edition, reading the info about RW Standard convinced me to purchase the $60 crossgrade.

Just don't let him get the GuitarPort RiffTracker package. You can't transfer RiffWorks to another Line 6 device. I bought my GuitarPort and RiffWorks 1.1 separately. Eventually I will upgrade my hardware to a TonePort (or whatever replaces the TonePort).

Hey Chip!
Sorry I'm not able to help on this one. Just wanted to tell you, you're not the only one having trouble registering Amplitube. I tried to help a friend of mine getting Amplitube to work last night... it wouldn't register either.
Peace.

I called Rick last night to give him my advice...........
The TonePort....baby!!!!
I was going to get the KB37 TonePort ....til I saw the drivers weren't working with RW2 .... another thread. instead I came home with the TonePort UX2....... totally rocking..... also came home with a Yamaha PSR-E403 keyboard.... I'm not sleeping tonight!!!!!!!
I did have the GuitarPort but needed to upgrade....GP still kicks arse though..... it's just that the UX2 does it BETTER........
I haven't even bothered to install the Ableton that comes with it......YET.....I'm more than happy with RiffWorks Standard....NOT the Line 6 version, why would you bother when you can get Standard for a few bucks more...... no probs with my Amplitube...
I can also use Guitar Rig 2 with it..... or Free-Amp....

Unless your friend has a guitar interface/di box already then Id have to say Toneport. Abelton rewires into Riffworks quite nicely, too. There was some talk about Amplitube2 going around for $249 but he would still need an interface. Also Im a Line6 fanboy.

Man, you guys are the best! We should have another caster by November.(by the time he gets everything and learns to create with it!

by **yahsteck1** » Tue Oct 24, 2006 1:57 pm

Ok , just talkd to him! can he get the RW software without being on line. He dosn't have Highspeed yet,but at least we can get him started untill he gets use to the program (this is all new to him).He askd if i can order it through my account but i didn't think that would work.) Well it dose come down to,as i told him before that he has to get highspeed.

by **ShredRex** » Tue Oct 24, 2006 2:17 pm

You could log on as him and download it for him if you have highspeed, just burn it to CD.....

by **michelle** » Wed Oct 25, 2006 3:51 pm

Actually, burning it to a CD for someone else won't work because it would be tied to your user name. Please ask him him contact us directly at support@sonomawireworks.com and we'll work something out for him.

Looking forward to hearing his stuff!

Thanks!
Michelle

What if he logs into RW as his friends user ID, then downloads and burns it to disc......LOL

Can you track it by IP adddy.....LOL

Just teasing Michelle

by **TerryR** » Thu Oct 26, 2006 1:34 am

I think ShredRex is correct...

For what it's worth, I downloaded RiffWorks Standard on my internet connected computer, transferred the installer file to a thumb drive, plugged the thumb drive into my new faster computer, ran the installer with a wireless USB connection for activation. It doesn't matter what computer it is downloaded to, as long as the installer is not "run" until it is put on it's permanent "home".
