Thanks all, almost for sure will go with the Floor, good points made here all around.

Sounds like noise floor to me, pulled from the Stomp converters. I see volume on the Stomp is at 50%, but gain channel on the amp sounds bloody high volum. This means you are pulling a lot of noise from the floor. Try turning HX Stomp volume knob to 100%, and turn down the amp channel volume.

Played my Helix direct to FOH, using Mooer Baby Bomb into the speaker of a Fender Deluxe amp for stage volume. Can't say enough great things about the Baby Bomb!! The Helix didn't let me down, but I took my LT as a backup. And it went a little bit something like this :)

Not sure I'm gonna watch the whole thing, but now - that's an intro! Sounds great, cool lineup, tight as a snare head. Kudos! Well done.

For me: Helix Floor has scribble strips, as mentioned already. They make it a lot easier to see in the dark, if you have an involved show. They are also a separate source of light on a dark stage as a bonus. Like I played one show where the stage light was completely out for about 10 seconds. I was able to navigate the stage thanks to having the Helix as my beacon of light :) Also, the Floor has a 10-stomp mode, that the LT does not have, plus more effects loops. Helix LT has a flimsier expression pedal. If you don't click the pedal in to switch between EXP 1/2, then the onboard pedal will last you just fine for years and years. LT has no scribble strips, but the performance view where the snapshot names are displayed on the screen is superior to the Helix Floor if you are playing outdoors. Scribble strips are more difficult to see if you are playing outdoors, compared to the "virtual" scribble strips that LT offers. If you don't plan on switching your sounds too much throughout your show, and you don't do all these dramatic dark stage moments where you emerge out of the fog and all that theatrics -- just get the LT. If you are worried about the expression pedal not being too robust, you can always get an external pedal and use that. Save yourself like 700 USD.

you'll forget about the money soon enough... the full floor has everything you mentioned.... adds future possibilities and a more robust build. worth it.

Hi, I didn’t upgrade - I went straight in for the “full fat” version right from the off, way back in November 2016. No regrets - used daily - it does all I require (studio based). If you have the cash, don’t think about it - do it!

In that case I strongly suspect it has nothing to do with Stomp but has to do with the amp.
