I still think the "standard" ToneX pedal offers the best price-to-performance ratio for me—unless you're aiming for an ultra-compact "travel rig." I find switching between captures so much easier with the three footswitches. Plus, it’s nice to know exactly what you’re playing... I also have the ToneX plug-in for when I go out to try out guitars...

I have the Stadium XL with my ToneX in the loop. Sonically, I find the Proxy very comparable to the ToneX captures—at least to my ears. Since I play a wide variety of styles and was already using a sort of "pedalboard strategy" with my "standard" Helix, I’ll likely stick with this setup. That means I have six main presets, each with matching pedals (Clean/Pop, Blues, Rock, etc.) and a corresponding Agoura amp—which can even be tweaked per snapshot (something that’s really easy to do since the Stadium update). I have the ToneX pedal in the loop, which I can use to replace the amp if needed. This gives me incredible tonal variety right at my feet, as the ToneX offers so many more amps (and gain stages, plus Bright, Balance, and Fat controls) ready to go. It’s also cool to be able to switch between the Agoura and the ToneX across snapshots (e.g., Clean vs. High Gain). I really like that. So, for now, I’m sticking with ToneX (mainly because of the workflow). If things get really wild, I can patch in my iPad and use NAM within Genome2 as a third option...

That was the first thing I did. They have the cc commands section: 49 0-127 Emulates Stomp footswitch mode's FS1 ... 58 0-127 Emulates Stomp footswitch mode's FS11 59 0-127 Emulates EXP Toe switch removed. Which I think is a shame, because you can no longer "mirror" the Helix with the appropriate Midi controller (e.g. Helix Stadium on the desk, MIDI controller below). I can no longer trigger the toe switch (or Exp Ped toggle) externally unless I have overlooked something?

So far I have used Midi in my Helix Floor to switch the expression pedal at the same time as bypass (CC 59). Is there a way to do this at the stadium XL?
