Did you ever get an answer for this?

Just picked up a G70 because it was on sale. So... is there a trick to getting the base to see the reciever? They're both on, both on channel 1... this is my first wireless unit, thinking it should be much easier than this. Any help would be appreciated.

I've been researching the MMC stuff, and I think I've figured out in my daw how to start and stop sessions. Now it's just a matter of figuring out how to make the helix move through the sessions or set list within a daw or some way to move through a set list easier.

He's just sending midi into his laptop I guess, using a daw of some sort, I can't tell but it looks like Reaper or Studio One. I'm just trying to find out if there is any step by step information to get started at least with that, because I understand the concept of it, but am having trouble just figuring out how to piece it together step by step as far as making the helix the main control for the daw / tracks / click as well as still be a vocal and guitar fx unit.

I doubt anyone will see this among the tons of posts about 2.8, but here is my question- There is a band that I like and admire, that seems to be using the Helix to start/stop all their backing tracks. The guitar player has his helix floor on the ground with a laptop next to it, but he's also running his helix into an amp setup behind him. He some how manages to use the helix, to start/stop his sessions that have backing tracks + it sends a click track of sorts to their drummer. I feel like he has cracked the code on this device in a way I can't even comprehend. So I was wondering if anyone could point me in a good direction to a video or thread, where it may break down how to do that with the helix? It would open a lot of doors for me, being in a 3 person band, to be able to add some more stuff going on, and I also think it would be nice to start playing to tempo mapped tracks (even if me the drummer is the only one who gets to hear the click.) Anyways, for those wondering who the band is, they are called Spotlights, and have some live footage floating around on YouTube, but if you watch them you can see how he triggers the stuff all from his helix and Laptop and it doesn't look like they have a crazy expensive rack of gear with a lot of devices to make this happen. Thanks for anyone who is reading this far, and hopefully someone can point me in a good direction. Thanks Helix users!

Okay, so since I have no "stomps" assigned that's why every scrip turns blank when I hit mode. Gosh I feel silly now.

Ok, ill save this. Thanks for digging I was trying to find some pictures of the menu's too. I'll try to figure it out when I get home and if not Ill post some pictures of what mine looks like/what it's doing. Thanks for all your replies it's greatly appreciated.

I will give this a try when I can get back to my Helix when I get off work. I remember seeing the 10 switches options, but when I saved it, nothing really changed on the scribble strip, and the bank switches that go up and down stayed there.

I was hoping maybe someone could just provide a screen shot of the global settings when put into 10 stomp mode. Then I could figure it out from there, I just didn't see any of those options in my global settings, so I was a little perplexed. I've been running snap shots so long, I wanted to change things up a bit just to try some other options and treat it more like a "pedal board" and couldn't get all 10 spots opened up for assignable switches.

I have the Helix Floor. Scribble strips and all!

Thanks for your reply. I never saw a "Stomp Mode Switches" option only, it was like 8 Presets, Snap/Stomp, Stomp/Snap, Preset Stomp, etc etc 8 Snapshots. - So is there something I'm missing? I'm on the most up to date version of the software.

Noob Question here. - I've seen a few pictures of the Helix floating around from a band I like, and it seems they have assigned different things to all the blocks, including the preset/bank up & down switches on the very LEFT of the helix. I have gone into the settings and changed the settings to 10 switches, but I don't see any mode for 8 stomp, or 10 stomp. Is anyone out there able to clarify this for me? It has to be possible since I've seen a band using it this particular way. I just would find it useful to be able to have 10 custom switches set to whatever I want them to be, rather than using snapshots currently. Thanks for your help.

I was researching helix routing. Just got mine last weekend. I stumbled upon this on Instagram. Could someone explain this patching/path to me on detail? Guitar into vocals in seriel into...? Anyways I would be greatly appreciative of any discussion of what this style of routing is accomplishing. Thanks.
