FS5 set to HX Snapshot PRESS/HOLD: NOTE - I set this up on a regular old HXS, so I used FS3. Snapshot 1 IC1 = Bank/Program Program = PC#1; FS5 = HX Snapshot PRESS/HOLD - PRESS = SS2; HOLD = SS3; Snapshot 2 IC1 = Bank/Program Program = PC#2; FS5 = HX Snapshot PRESS/HOLD - PRESS = SS1; HOLD = SS3 Snapshot 3 IC1 = Bank/Program Program = PC#3; FS5 = HX Snapshot PRESS/HOLD - PRESS = SS1; HOLD = SS2 SAVE BOTH Snapshots 1&2 with Chorus ON. SAVE SS3 with Chorus OFF When the HX Preset loads (SS1 SAVEd as default) PC#1 will be sent. Chorus is ON. While on SS1, PRESS will change to SS2 and send PC#2. Chorus will be ON. HOLD will change to SS3 and send PC#3. Chorus will be OFF. On SS2, PRESS will change to SS1 and send PC#1. Chorus will be ON. HOLD will change to SS3 and send PC#3. Chorus will be OFF. On SS3, PRESS will change to SS1 and send PC#1. Chorus will be ON. HOLD will change to SS2 and send PC#2. Chorus will be ON. I've attached an example preset. vincentm77.hlx

I never liked my HD. For me, Helix was a major step up. Different strokes...

Yes, but a template is just that - how to ROUTE a signal for a desired result. You have to know how you want the signal to travel from INPUT(s) to OUTPUT(s). How it SOUNDS depends upon your understanding of the routing (split types, pans, levels) in relation to the effects and settings you use. It's helpful to have the manual handy when analyzing the templates for suitability to your desired outcome.

GR was never my favorite amp sim, but its routing capabilities were its standout feature. Also had some crazy effects. I loved the Psyche Delay! Unfortunately, NI was mainly into synths.

IIRC, it's one of the new features of Stadium.

Why ask us? We don't work for Line 6. Nobody here knows anything. OK, here's my guess. Eric Klein (Chief Product Design Architect - Digital Igloo on The Gear Page) continues to say that there WILL be at least one more update for Helix. If anybody knows, he does. When that happens, look for an update to Native. Meanwhile, sign up at The Gear Page and frequent the Digital and Modeling Forum. There's also a Facebook place where he hangs out, but I don't do Facebook, so search.

had a quick look at the EBS manual. Maybe this? BLEND sets the mix level between the clean channel and drive channel when the drive channel is active. To jump between the Clean and Drive channels, set this knob to the max position and set the Serial switch to Off.

From any preset that uses IRs, you can scroll the IR name in the IR Block, and the full name is displayed along with its position in the IR list. The dropdown arrow displays the full list in scrollable form.

Then it has MIDI DIN ports and all you need is a controller with DIN ports and a MIDI DIN cable of an appropriate length. If you choose to go wireless then you'll need a wireless to MIDI DIN adapter. I don't recommend wireless. I find it to be undependable on a good day. YMMV. Catalyst Edit continues to work with a USB cable to whatever computer/iThingy that you're currently using.

As is often said, the devil is in the details, and you didn't specify the model of your Catalyst. Since the connections are not obvious, I'll assume that you have a Catalyst 60, which does not have a MIDI DIN Port. To use MIDI you'll either need a HOST (a computer, iPhone or iPad), a MIDI controller that doubles as a HOST. or a HOST "box". Amazon.com: M-VAVE Chocolate Plus MIDI Footswitch Controller Pedal, 4 Buttons, USB Compatible, APP Control, Portable : Musical Instruments I've never used this, so read everything you can find about it. AFAICT, you should be able to simply connect a USB-B to USB-C cable from your Cat60 to the Chocolate+ and use the wireless app to program it. If you choose to go this way, buy it from a store with a no-questions-asked return policy. It's non-host version gets good reviews on The Gear Page. If you have an iPhone/iPad (idk about androids) you can connect directly and the iThingy will serve as a host. I recommend getting a powered hub instead of direct connect, else usable time will be limited by the battery in your iThingy. I use this with my iPad: Amazon.com: Anker USB C Hub, 5-in-1 USBC to HDMI Splitter with 4K Display | 85W Max PD, 1 Powered USB-C 5Gbps & 2 Powered USB-A 3.0 5Gbps Data Ports, for MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, Dell and More (Black) : Electronics You can also connect a standard (non host) MIDI controller using one of these: Amazon.com: CME H2MIDI Pro Compact USB Host MIDI Interface | Router, Filter, Mapper, 32-Bit Processor, Dual Power Mode, Minimal Size, For Guitarists & Producer : Musical Instruments There are other products at various prices in all of the above categories. I suggest that you do your due diligence before deciding which way to go.

I see that you posted and deleted two questions, so if you're still wondering, the devices I mentioned will allow you to select any of the 12 presets, plus control any of the FX. I'm not familiar with the specific 2-button switch you referred to, but normally they only control preset up/down.

De nada!

When you click the track FX button, the window that opens, containing the FX, is what I call the FX UI, because it is where the User Interacts with the FX. Each effect has a checkbox next to the effect name. Make sure that checkbox is checked.

What DAW are you using? I'm using Reaper, and the Snapshot won't change unless Stadium is ACTIVE/ENABLED (checked in the FX UI).

No. You need a cheap 4 button MIDI pedal such as Hotone Ampero Control (what I use) or MVAVE Chocolate.

Hello.

SAVE PRESET AS opens the Presets folder in Windows Explorer and you have the option to create a new User folder where you can save presets. They just only created the USER 1 Folder as a default.

SAVE PRESET AS creates the actual preset, after which you can use SAVE PRESET to overwrite it. Put another way, SAVE PRESET is only used to overwrite an existing preset. A bit counter intuitive and not how most programs work, but simply using SAVE PRESET AS resolves your problem.

I meant that Line 6 is not responsible for the changes from VST2 to VST3. That's ON Steinberger. I'm wondering how you are doing this, as the Pilot's guide says you can't, except, as I previously noted, by using AAX (ProTools) or AU (MAC/Logic etc): Setlist, Preset, and Snapshot Recall via MIDI NOTE - AU and AAX Plug-in Formats Only: At this time, remote MIDI control of setlist and preset changes is supported only with the AU (Mac) and Pro Tools AAX (Mac and Windows) Helix Native plug-in formats. It is not supported for the VST2 or VST3 Helix Native plug-in formats on Mac or Windows. Also note that Setlist and Preset changes performed via MIDI PC/CC messages are not supported by Undo, and will clear the current Undo history - please see “Undo and Redo” on page 27. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Are you using Ableton on a MAC? I just noticed that you didn't specify, so I ASSUMED (silly me!) that you were using Windows. Again, this is simple in Reaper, with Helix OR Stadium Native, I just can't see a practical method for doing it in Ableton with VSTs.

To clarify: You said you use Reaper. You CAN use MIDI for program changes in Reaper. It's not really that difficult. IF you also use Ableton, for instance, for playing Clips, you CAN route and control Ableton from Reaper using Rearoute. I can explain how to do ALL of the above if you actually want to do what you say you want to do. OR you could get a copy of ProTools and use AAX. OR you could switch from PC to MAC and use Logic. That VST3 is not DIRECTLY MIDI PC compatible is on Steinberg, not Line 6. I'm not sure what you mean by this. AFAICT there's folders - FACTORY and USER. Setlists imported from OG Helix Native or Helix HW simply place the setlist into the USER folder as a new subfolder containing it's presets, but it is not a separate "Bank".

VST3 is not (simply to users) compatible with MIDI PC Messages. In Reaper you can save the preset using the "+" icon in the plugin header. It will then appear in the header's dropdown list. The order of appearance determines the PC# required to call it up, and the order can be changed using that same icon. I can explain in more detail if you can't get it to work. AFAICT it is not possible in Ableton.

??? Three years later... What is it EXACTLY that YOU are trying to do that YOU can't do that Line 6 is still too stupid to fix for you that may not have been broken in the 1st place? I've tried to address all of the issues presented, but there were a few and I'm not sure which one was yours? FWIW - I don't work for Line 6, nobody on this user-to-user support forum does, but I've had the Catalyst since it was released and do know a bit about it.

Works fine for me. No way to tell what's wrong with your setup with the info provided, but not a problem here.

Login to your Line 6 account. Go to DEVICES and deauthorize any that you no longer need. If that doesn't work contact Support.

Further to the above: I also have ToneX, Genome and THU. That gives me access to 4 of the 6 major players in the capture/profile world. Proxy through Stadium Native NAM through Genome (though Genome isn't necessary, I could just use the FREE NAM player, but it's nice to have it.) ToneX THU Rig Libraries All with a choice of (potentially) 1028 different Helix pedalboards and using Helix as MIDI controller and Reaper as DAW/VST HOST. What a wonderful world we live in!
