Line 6 GearBox 3.7 – Troubleshooting
9•13
Track playback when using the Player is frequently interrupted
Interrupted Track playback may be caused when another USB device is trying to stream audio or video,
or your computer cannot provide enough system resources (RAM memory or computer processor
speed) for GearBox. First, it’s a good idea to make sure you exit other unnecessary programs running
on your computer while using GearBox. You may be also able to reduce or eliminate these problems by
making an adjustment to your GearBox Preferences > tracks tab:
In the lower part of the Tracks tab, move the Playback Buffer slider to the right to reduce the load that’s
put on your computer when playing back Tracks.
Click the Help question mark at the top of the Preferences dialog box and click an item for more
details.
