Thanks RD2RK. For now, I just have a HX stomp, which is great for small pedalboard stuff. I would rather make the thread about what can be done with the pedal and how people work with it than whether I am creative or flexible enough to use it. The answer to that is maybe, or maybe not! I'd rather hear about what real world solutions other, more experienced Helix users have come up with, besides "have everything at unity" which isn't really practical for the kind of music I play (lots of dynamics, turning delays and drives on and off, etc), and the fact that when we show up to a show, we don't always get a super long sound check to tweak everything.

I am not sure how to ask this question, so please bear with me. Is there a way to change a single effects parameter across presets, or a workaround? On an old fashioned stomp box pedalboard, let’s say you have a drive and a reverb. You get sounds you like in your practice space. You are playing a show and get to the venue and the drive sounds a bit hot and bright and the reverb sounds a bit wet, so you back off both. Works for every song, no problem. Now let’s say I’ve set up multiple presets on the Helix. I’ve got a Teemah and a double tank in all of them. Same venue, same issue. It seems like I would have to edit the Teemah and Double Tank settings in every preset to achieve the same thing. Or just use one preset per set (which is more like a regular pedalboard but kind of a waste of a Line6 pedal). How do people work around this in real life? PS no I am not gigging now, but I am redoing my pedalboard. TIA.

One other newbie question since this is my newbie thread: I'm using an EHX Superego in front of the Stomp. If I want to send the wet signal into the return, so I need to use up a block with a send and return, or is there a way to create a "B" path without using up a block? TIA.

Thanks for your super-fast reply. What MIDI controller are you using? I’d love something that’s like 3 buttons with programmable CCs.

Greetings. New HX stomp user here. I love the unit, but have two questions: 1. Is there a way to set the double-click speed somewhere buried in the settings, like you can with a mouse in your computer OS? Apparently, my foot technique is no good! I cannot seem to double-click fast enough with my foot to get the 1-switch looper to stop. I can do it with my fingers, but that's not very helpful. The double click is noticeably faster than on other pedals that have this function. 2. If I wanted different global setups for different functions: one for using this as a backup with my band with a high output bass, and one for home practice with a very low output bass, is there a way to set up "profiles" that I could select so I don't have to change the settings every time I switch instruments? TIA.
