CTIVATION

So you just upgraded your computer to the latest and greatest (this week anyway…) model, and want to
move GearBox to your new system? In this section, we’ll explain how to make the transfer process as
easy as A-B-C, whether the new computer can connect to the internet or not.

The destination computer has an internet connection

This is the easiest scenario: Download and install the GearBox application (always available at

line6.com/software

). This will also install the necessary drivers for your hardware and the Line 6

Monkey application.

GearBox Plug-in doesn’t work!!! Where are my Model Packs??? Relax –Your Add-Ons
(Model Packs, Plug-in, etc…) are tied-in to your hardware’s ESN, but also need to be authorized
with each new computer you’ll be using GearBox on. In other words, they work but just haven’t
been enabled on the new computer yet.

Launch Line 6 Monkey. The Monkey utility will connect to the server and scan your hardware
for any activated Add-ons, and if it finds any, will display the following message


Just click Authorize, and Monkey will enable the use of your activated Add-On(s) on the new
computer system.
