and what this lollipop in update ???

the same problem any have resolve ?

That’s actually a solid setup idea — keeping the wireless pack on your jeans and muting via the tuner switch is what a lot of players do when swapping guitars mid-set. It keeps your signal clean and avoids pops when unplugging. The Helix doesn’t really automate the switching between multiple transmitters, but if your wireless receiver supports multiple channels, you could dedicate one per guitar and toggle as needed. Otherwise, one transmitter and quick swaps are the simplest route.

I have a similar switch, the Hotone one, and it works flawlessly. You want to make sure that you got a Momentary switch (not latching), connected through a TRS cable, and that the Global Settings are indeed as you specify (but double-check; a factory reset may have changed your settings). I only run tests with a connected POD Express (phone, PC, doesn't matter), so that I can monitor what happens without needing to hear the sound. There is no indicator on the POD unit when you turn Effects on/off, so I look at the individual blocks as I use the footswitch on POD Express Edit.

Hi, Short answer - No! The Helix family of products are based on a completely different modelling engine and are not even remotely compatible. Over the past 10 years of Helix, many folks have tried, and failed, to recreate patches from earlier Line 6 modellers. Even if you think that loading an older preset into Line 6 Edit, and making a note of every detail of the settings of every component of the patch, and then using those details to rebuild a preset in HX Edit for your unit - it will not work! Don’t waste your life - learn how to build presets using the newer models. You will be far happier, far sooner! Oh, yeah, I started out with the old Red Kidney Bean POD, and I still have a POD XT Live and a POD HD500 gathering dust in the corner of my studio, but bought my Helix Floor back in 2015 and use it almost daily. It’s a world of difference. Tools for the job. Hope this helps/makes sense

I'm pretty sure that I'm not going to be able to do this but way-back-when (around 2005/6) I owned a POD XT Live which I used in my covers band (long since disbanded). I uploaded 5 or 6 tones to the Line6 site and, amazingly, they're still available!! So... is there any way I can upload those tones to my HX Stomp, or would I have to attempt to recreate them from scratch. I anticipate the latter, but it would be interesting to know before I try!! A few of the old tones actually sounded pretty decent... well, as far as my memory of 20 years ago goes!!

Are you using some external midi controller and maybe getting midi CC loops?

Possible cause; Too long usb cable Too cheap usb cable USB ports are part of an internal Hub You are using an external Hub Power save settings USB port on the helix unit has either a cold or a broken joint. (dodgy port)

When seeking assistance from other users, it’s a good idea to provide as much information as possible. You stated that you have tried using both Mac and Windows machine to connect without success. You didn’t mention what level of OS is running on these computers - it may, or may not be relevant. You also didn’t say if this is the first time you have tried to connect, or if you have had it working previously without issue - if so, what changed? Regarding the Windows machine. Avoid using a USB Hub! You should be aware that on some PCs the front USB ports can behave like a hub and it is recommended that you connect to a USB slot on the rear of the machine? This rear port is most likely mounted directly to the main board and is probably a more stable connection. Furthermore, if you are trying to connect HX Edit on the PC, please ensure you are using the latest drivers for the software and that your version of HX Edit and the firmware on Helix device are on the same revision. Also, (more USB voodoo), just because the USB cable you're using works with your printer (or whatever) doesn't necessarily make it suitable to hookup to your Helix. Ensure you USB cables are designed for data transmission, some are for charging only. Check all your cables if you are suffering drop out. Over the past 10 years, this place has become full of threads regarding flakey USB, but there are still many thousands of happy Helix users who never seem to have USB problems. I don’t understand how you cannot raise a ticket with support? You must be able to access your account details, as you are obviously logged in to be able to post here. Please try again. Hope this helps/makes sense.

It sounds like you're having a very frustrating experience! Here is a rewritten version of your issue that is clearer and easier for others to understand: Line 6 Helix Floor Connection Issues with HX Edit I'm having persistent connection issues with my Line 6 Helix Floor and the HX Edit software on both Mac and Windows operating systems. The main problem is that the Helix will not reliably connect to HX Edit via USB. I've tried multiple USB cables, including another known-good cable, but the issue persists. When a connection is established, it is unstable. It typically stays connected for only a few minutes before disconnecting. This connecting/disconnecting cycle repeats several times. Glitching and Freezing: While it is briefly connected, the Helix Floor unit itself (and likely the HX Edit display) will start glitching and freezing. I'm unable to resolve this and I've already tried to open a support ticket with Line 6, but the system is not allowing me to submit it. Is that a fair rewrite? Concerning the support ticket problem, how did you realize that the system doesn't allow to submit it? Could you tell what specific Mac and Windows operating systems you are using (e.g., macOS Sonoma, Windows 11) and what troubleshooting steps you've already taken (besides changing the cable)? This information might help in suggesting a solution.

line 6 helix floor won't connect with hx edit on Mac and windows even though with another us cable. and when it connect it stays connect for a few minutes and it disconnects and it does that several times and the helix floor and then while its connect with the usb cable on hx edit it also start glitchin it freezes.help somebody I've tried to open a ticked but it won't let me

Hi, I got a little bit of time this afternoon to fire up Reaper to start to check out your MIDI issue. It has been such a long time since it had been loaded Reaper decided to collate/update all my plug-ins - around 300 including, my software instruments. Anyhow, it crossed my mind that you didn’t tell us what MIDI controller you are using to transmit the Control and Preset changes into Reaper. So, while Reaper was trawling through my VST/ AU folder, I had a quick look on YouTube and found this video. Not sure if this will cure your switching problem, but it seems to work just fine for this guy. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hi, When weird and unexpected things happen the first line of defence is to perform a factory reset: - Helix LT Reset Options Helix Floor/LT Button Combination Description 2 LED light Fun 3 & 4 Test Mode 5 & 6 Global reset 7 & 8 Reset setlists to factory, Keep IRs 8 & 9 Reset setlists to factory, Clear IRs 9 & 10 Reset setlists to factory, Global reset, Clear IRs 10 & 11 Upgrades existing presets to latest format 11 & 12 Clear current preset 5 & 12 Clear setlists, clear IRs, Return system settings to default 6 & 12 Safe boot mode To use Reset Options: Power off the Helix Hold the desired button combination Power on the Helix Release the button combination Please note: Buttons are numbered from top left to bottom right. Note: If this doesn’t clear the problem, it maybe advisable to reinstall the Firmware. You didn’t mention what version you have in your LT, but upgrading to the latest version (3.80) helps to fix various known bugs. Hope this helps/makes sense.

This was the fix! I have no idea when I would have turned it off, but thank you @Schmalle

Salve a tutti. Ho una toneport ux2 ed uso Gearbox con cubase 5.5.3 Improvvisamente cubase non registra più gli effetti delle chitarre e bassi, si sentono i suoni puliti e senza effetti. Dalle casse/cuffie si sentono gli effetti e anche bene, ma cubase non li registra sulle tracce. Ho disinstallato e reinstallato sia cubase che toneport ux2 aggiornati i drivers, ma niente non ho avuto risposte. Aiuto!! Grazie! Dimenticavo uso attualmente windows 7 professional ed ha sempre funzionato.

Does this occur without connecting to your Mac?

About my Helix LT i love it .... it's reliable ...on stage and at home too ( for recording ) it's my best medium between my Mac ,Cubase and my ears ... i wish to fix this soon ...Thank you for your time "Silverhead"

It's happen with all the preset ( factory included ) That never did this before .... yet i have put off the noise gate and the same thing still happen ...it's weird ...maybe it's a bad connection inside in relation with the guitar input ( When i listen the music ( via Cubase , or youtube etc etc the sound is ok ...it's happen only with all of my guitars ) Maybe i have to go at the dealer for a check-up

I appreciate any assistance. Thanks for your help and sorry for your loss.

A little late with the reply, but I’ve been out of the loop for a couple of days, and got a funeral next week. Ho hum, nobody gets out of here alive, and at our age I sometime you wonder if there is any point in leaving the cemetery! Yup, I’m a Mac jockey, but mainly with Logic, although I do have a few more DAWs (Reaper, Studio One, Ableton, GarageBand, Avid PTools, etc.) available as test beds for situations such as this. I will need to check this out when I get into the studio, and like you I generally use Native for re-amping duties rather than MIDI automation. First I will have a look at the Dropbox video for any clue. This may require some head scratching, unless anyone else can jump in on this a little quicker. L8rz

I will give this a shot after work, thank you for the reply!

Make sure to set Global Settings > Preferences > EXP 2/EXT AMP to EXT AMP.

Thanks for bring this to our attention. Our team hasn't fully tested with Mac OS Tahoe yet. I will bring this info to their attention. We're received other reports about this, so our software team is already aware. I can link them to this video as well. Since the update was just released recently, we're hoping to take a look at this issue soon. In the future, if you have a concern please submit a support ticket here: https://line6.com/support/tickets/

I am the owner of an Orange TH30 amp head, and a helix LT. In the past, I was able to get amp switching to work via the helix. Oranges manual says it is a latching channel switcher, so I set to latch, try ring, tip, or 1 and 2 and cant get it to switch. When I plug in an external channel switcher it works, so I know it isn't broken. Any thoughts or possible solutions? Thanks!

Not enough information. Listen to that track and / or take a look at the Helix patch that was used.
