Bome Box Setup & Line 6 FBV

So I have connected to the Bome Box ok, but my Line 6 FBV is just blinking over and over and not appearing in the settings in fact I can't choose anything in the Routing. I tried to post earlier not sure that it took, but also tried updating the firmware and waited a good 15 minutes before trying to reconnect. I also can't seem to upload a project. Man I hope I can get it working with this pedal board I have a lot riding on this project.

Hi,

Sorry for yout trouble!  Is your BomeBox Power light steady or does it occasionally blink? How are you powering your BomeBox.  Please do not use a USB charing port as they play with power levels and are optimized for charging batteries so do not provide consistent power.  Try a power adapter or USB port that is not a charging port.  If the power light blinks after it is booted then it is likely in some sort of power cycling loop.

If you are getting a steady light then power should be OK, otherwise also try disconnecting the Line 6 FBV if it is goes steady. I'm not sure how much power this device draws but if disconnecting stops the blinking, try a powered USB hub instead.

 

Keep me posted
