You can also do this using Snapshots if you don't want to waste a FS.

Place the cab/IR at the end of the signal chain (before the Output Block) and place a SEND (to the amp) before the IR.

Here's the same functionality using Snapshots instead of a FS. Warmoth Mod2.hlx

Attached version should work. You needed a FS, so I used the Piezo Tuner (FS5). Just put the tuner before Return1 instead of in the Loop. FS5 now modifies the LEVELS of the 2A and 2B Output Blocks, cutting out the Piezo when ON and cutting out the Guitar when OFF. Warmoth mod.hlx

If I understand correctly, you have ONE guitar and TWO signal paths for it and want to switch signal paths? Split your paths immediately after the Guitar In. Change the Split Block to A/B and assign a FS to it. It will now toggle the signal between the paths. Then rejoin the main path at the very end before the Output Block.

FYI - if you update your FW your plain vanilla Catalyst will magically BECOME A CX! I did it to my Catalyst - it's GREAT! But, if for some unfathomable reason you don't WANT a better, more powerful Catalyst, FOR FREE, below is from the original Catalyst Pilot's Guide: 1. Press the REVERB button to enable the Reverb 2. Press again to switch the Reverb off. 3. Like the EFFECTS, press and hold the REVERB button for two seconds to enter reverb selection mode. The AMP SELECTOR encoder LED ring will dim, and you can use the SELECTOR to scroll through the six different reverbs. Press the REVERB button again to exit selection mode. Remember to press and hold CH A or B to save your reverb settings to that preset. If the above doesn't work and a factory reset doesn't fix it, open a support ticket.

Back up your presets and perform a factory reset. If that doesn't get it open a support ticket.

Please attach a copy of a preset that demonstrates this behavior. I think I know what is happening, and it is not a bug, but I need your preset to verify.

I can't imagine that the switching circuit in that amp is any more than a mechanical ON (circuit CLOSED) and OFF (circuit OPEN) which is what the Helix Ext Amp switch does. Are you using a TRS cable? Are you sure that the "upgraded" jack even works? If you have a FS that works (how else would you know that the jack is functional?) use a multimeter to know which button switches what. You'll need two switches - one set to TIP and the other set to RING - both set to LATCHING.

Hello.

You have to hold the FX button down until the selector switch blinks and then dims. Then press the TAP button until the FX LED you pressed (FX1 or FX2) displays the color code for the type of effect you want. Then turn the selector to the desired effect in that category and press the FX button again to confirm your selection. Download the Catalyst CX Family Pilot's Guide and see page 10.

Two things: This is a user-to-user support forum. Nobody from Line6 hangs out here. Go to: Digital & Modeling Gear | The Gear Page or various Facebook pages they're known to frequent. The OLD Powercab series is DEAD. No updates since year one and nobody from Line6 will even talk about it. The new Stadium series doesn't even have the L6 Link port. If you MUST continue to use this DEAD tech (I have the PC212+) with the new Stadium there's a $250 add-on box with L6 Link and Variax ports they'll be releasing someday. They've just released a new product called Powercab CL212 which is basically a powered 212 guitar cab with limited speaker emulations but not FRFR. You can ask them to make that in a vertical model. Good Luck with that!

If you bought it at a store with a returns policy, return it for an exchange. If not, contact support. It may be a known issue with some units.

Perform a Factory Reset: Factory Reset In the event that you want to return your Catalyst amplifier to factory settings, follow the steps below. 1. It is highly recommended that you first use the Backup/Restore feature found in the Catalyst Edit software to create a backup of your custom presets and settings —see page 11. 2. Exit Catalyst Edit and disconnect your amplifier from the computer. The following step will erase any and all edits you have made to your presets, effects, etc. in the amplifier. You did make that backup, right? 3. Hold down the CH B and MANUAL buttons on the front panel of your Catalyst while powering on the amplifier. If you haven't already, DL the Catalyst Manual and at least skim it.

Page 68 of the LT 3.80 manual: 2 Re-amp Src (USB 7) 3 Re-amp Src (USB 8) USB out 7 and 8 are dedicated to recording a DI signal which can be used for re-amping; choose which two inputs will be sent dry (unpro cessed) to your DAW. By default, USB 7 is set to “Guitar” and USB 8 to “Variax.” See “USB Audio”
