Recently watching some real ones in use on youtube, I miss this model from my POD. Yes, technically I could just use the SLO model... anyone else miss it as much as I do? Is there a way to get a similar tone?

I am thinking that, however also, when the volume knob on that pedal is at 0 (or its lowest) it still clips. It also had true Bypass/ Buffered select, but while on that shouldn't be effecting anything

I recently purchased a catalinbread 4x40 "soft focus" to get my shoegaze on. On patches with no dirt it works in spades. However, in a patch containing the blocks Deluxe Comp > Tone sovereign > brit j45 nrm/4x12 greenback 20 > noise gate > FX loop L + Vintage Digital (delay) in parallel, the reverb in the fx loop clips. I have the send and returns all set to instrument level in the global settings, but it still clips. Is there a reason the HX stomp sends too hot a level even at unity gain? I have the output boosted 10db, but that is after the fx loop. I also tested with my alesis MIDIverb II (can you tell I love shoegaze) and no clipping. Is this pedal specific? Should I reach out to catalinbread?

On a lighter note, am I the only one who has to play Joe Raposo's Three's Company theme whenever you use the "colorful" wah? I've always wondered what wah he used.. It sounds the same on all the work he did for CTW and Sesame

Ok backed up just the global settings, the m-audio pedal is now working as it should.

will this overwrite my presets?

how do I do this?

Did go into global settings, set the tip polarity inverted, then assinged the wah to exp 2 in HX edit. It works but in reverse.. and it used work as exp 1, which all the blocks default to..

yes, as all my presets transferred over so I assume yes.

I have an HX stomp with 3.1 firmware on it now, and my m-audio expression pedal no longer works with it. As I rock the pedal I get either an "expression 1 active" or "expression 2 active" message. I am trying to assign it for position on a wah block. I had no problems with the previous firmware, is this a bug in 3.1?

Thanks folks! you answered what I already assumed. I had read other threads concerning IR size and sample rates. Now I'm wondering if there is something on the market though that can do accoustic IRs. I'm thinking besides software, nothing hardware based is reality yet.

I have reverb IRs I use in reason, can you use accoustic space IRs in HX stomp? I assuming the intent is to model cabinets.

In response to the amsdenj post getting lots of traction lately, I ask, what is your favorite pedal not modeled in the HX stomp that you leave in the fx return? I myself have much love for the z.vex lo-fi junky. It can't be recreated. It stays in my effects loop. What are your favorites you just can't live without that aren't modeled in the HX stomp?

yea I'm gonna play with cab sims on the solo lead. The x88 was essentially a pre-amp version of a soldano sl-100 so I should be able to dial something in the ballpark.

oh it's updated. And I'm well aware of the models it does have. I am lamenting the loss of my favorite which happened to be that x88 preamp model. Is one of the hi-gain amps sonicly similar? I'm trying to recreate my patches

I am new to the world of Helix via the HX Stomp... and I am sad to find no Line6 Modern hi-gain model. You know, the Soldano x88 preamp model. Has it not been modeled in the helix line?

my well used PODxt (power switch replaced a while back, definitely loved) is starting to lose the FXjunkie and metal shop model packs. If I go to a preset that uses an fx or amp in said packs, a random amp from the stock power pack is substituted. Is my pod on its last legs? There's no internal battery just internal flash correct? This has happened multiple times (made a post the first time it happened) and I'm tired of having to reflash the firmware all the time. Hmm interesting tried disconnecting the USB as I powered it on (as mentioned in another post) and the model packs are working again? Not fun for editing tones on the computer however.. Is this a bug?

I run my pod xt into a steinberg UR22MKII audio interface for recording/monitoring/ playing back with computer audio. Direct from the phones output in the headphones it's loud, but into the steinberg from an instrument cable on the left line output (in mono) it's underwhelming, and I have to crank the input levels on the steinberg a lot and get clipping. Bass response is also lacking and a general lackluster tone is all I get out of any model. If I were getting that out of the real amps being modeled I'd be very disappointed. Is there a setting I'm missing on the POD? I believe I have it set with the cab simulation ON and settings for PA. Is there something I'm missing? The tones i get live through a real tube amp (blues Jr.) compare to the POD are night and day. Makes me not want to record or play at home anymore. Am I asking to much from the POD? Are there optimal settings for running a setup this way?

reflashed, re-added my bundle of tones, the fx work again! Though I still enjoy line6 edit over gearbox (and it still works under windows 10.. fingers crossed on that one though lol)

Did the license manager. If I have to I'll re-flash though though I gotta refresh how to back up my banks of custom tones

have the bean shaped podXT however it is not register it has the fx-junkie model packs installed at all, either via gearbox OR the front interface. On startup it shows the pack is installed, but selecting an fx-effect does nothing the effect is the same as the previous non fx-junkie effect as if it's ignore the entire fx-junkie pack.
