I find the explanation for 3 rather difficult to follow. I think the short answer is that you can use a combination of a load box and the send/return and IR capabilities of the HXFX to simulate his cab (or any cab/mic/position combination one can get their hands on) and then instead of going into the cab then goes into the house's sound board. I understand he can also go into his cab, but that would be without a signal that has gone through the IR. In short, none of these example scenarios include using an IR with an actual real cab, if I understand correctly.

My understanding is that HX Effects is a unit for guitar players that want the tone of their "real tube amps" amps, their cabs and if they are miking then their mic's sound and all of the details of where it is positioned, etc. Then there's multiple mics, etc. Otherwise, if they wanted the simulated amps, cabs and all that, they'd be getting a Helix, no? So if you are playing into an amp and cab then where to IR's come in? Use it? Not use it? If you use it what are the rules? Where in the signal chain? Does it require 4 cable method?

Has anyone figured out a way to connect some sort of a USB adapter to the "USB-B" port on the back of the HX Effects, bluetooth perhaps, to be able connect to a pc/tablet and run the "Edit" software without having a cable? If so, what product are you using and where can I buy it?

Ok, figures. I think I just figured this out. Under the Global>Pedals you have to set the "Exp Position X", X in my case is 1 to Global. From the manual... Determines whether each expression pedal position is recalled per snapshot, per preset, or applied globally. If you want a Volume Pedal or Wah to maintain its position when switching presets, set this to "Global." I hate when this happens, but maybe this will help someone else, lol.

I'm on the latest firmware/software. I am using preset mode and I have several presets all with a volumne control as one of the stomps and I've got expression input 1 setup to control the position. When I'm switching from one preset to the next, even when the expression pedal is beyond the heal position, even at max, the volume after selecting the next preset is zero. Now I only need to move the expression pedal a tiny bit then suddenly it "registers", but that doesn't seem right to me. The target preset should already recognize the position of the expression pedal and be playing/passing signal at that setting, 50%, 80%, 100% whatever, without me having to tickle/touch it or switch it on/off with a separate switch. I'm using the Dunlap DVP3 pedal for the expression pedal. Not the Mission one, which I probably would have gotten if the store had it in stock, but the Dunlap sure wasnt' cheap either. Other than this one issue, this device has been a lot easier to work with then my TC Electronics G major 2 and midi-controllers. Any advice?

What are the instructions/steps to configure the tuner for strobe mode?
