Hello, I am having a problem with the expression pedal of my Helix LT after the update to firmware 3.50, everything is fine but the expression pedal does not seem to work in any preset. Another strange thing that I notice is that when I start the helix in calibration mode and touch the footswitches it does not detect anything I do, but if I start in normal mode everything works, except the expression pedal, I reinstalled the firmware and everything remains the same, except Has anyone had this, any help? Pd: Physically the pedal is in perfect condition pd: sorry for my inglish... Thanks!

Same problem here, I saw this on internet, I don't know if it works, I don't prove it yet, but... The problem is with the piezo pickups and is very easy to fix. The plinky sound, especially, but not limited to palm muting, comes from the way the string "pings" against the piezo. What you need to do is change your strings, but on the new set, put a piece of duct tape or gaphers tape about .5" long about .25" from the ball end of the new string. This will deaden the string against the piezo and completely eliminates that "plinky" sound you are hearing. I sent my Variax back to Line 6 twice before discovering this amazing fix. IT WORKS!!!!!
