Oh I didn't know this was not on Line 6. re: Banks reference: This is coming from my Helix LT usage. Let me explain. Each Setlist in the hardware is really a Bank (1-7 on Helix LT) and the order of appearance is the bank order, same as presets. On ableton, with regular Helix Native (not stadium), you can switch presets within the same bank, but not banks (AKA Playlists).. so as long as you have the plugin on the appropriate playlist, you can switch presets. I can also see that Native Stadium sorts preset alphabetically, so, to keep things consistent, one would need to put a number at the start of the preset name, which is workable. Now, Reaper or Ableton. I use both, Reaper for mixing and mastering, Ableton for production. BUT, I use Ableton in our band, as it played nicely with the rest of the software and hardware we use. My intention is to replace my Helix LT with Native Stadium. I suppose I could have a single preset with all the stuff as a virtual pedal board and turn on/off stuff using MIDI CC or snapshots, that is also a workable option.

its really a shame.. the plugin sounds insane good. I would totally gig with this (and probably will). but program change is a must to take it to the next level. Even program change withing the same bank would be acceptable.

Has anyone figured out how to change programs via MIDI? I'm using a MC8 PRO controller and I've been able to control snapshots, and use expression pedals, however, I have not been able to send a program change,or bank changes. I'm running Helix Stadium Native v1.3.3.1 on Ableton 12 or Reaper Thanks in advance

I know it's a pretty old tread, but this is a very easy procedure (at least for helix LT), it should not take you more than 30 minutes. don't hesitate to follow the instructions above, and your pedal will be squeak free in no time.

Had same happen here... all good after that

I know this is an old topic, BUT I think I have found one possible cause of the problem (at least on my case), and I hope this helps someone. My setup Helix connected using 4CM to a rack full of gear (mostly preamps). Signal Path: Guitar > Helix > Helix FX send > Outboard Preamps > Helix FX return > Helix XLR -> Audio Interface The Audio interface is connected to a laptop via a powered USB 3 hub. I have The Computer gear, Audio interface and Helix are all powered by a Furman line conditioner. The outboard rack gear by another Furman. Both Furman line conditioners are currently connected to separate power points but this makes no difference whatsoever. I have tried all possible combination of power points, house circuits, all gear powered by the same Furman device, etc.. none of that matters. I get noise (and a LOT) when the helix is connected to the powered USB hub and the outboard gear are connected. I also get noise (like digital noise) when the Powered USB hub is connected and the outboard gear is not, although is not as much noise. The first sounds like a ground loop but it makes no sense. The solution in my case was simple. I just connected the Helix to a standard USB 2.0 port. In my case, this was easily achieved by connecting the Helix directly to one of the laptop's docking station USB 2 ports. I was also able to use the USB c port on the laptop using the Dell USB-C to USB-A 3.0 adaptor with the same success. I tried another two powered USB hubs and all cause noise, and this are not cheap hubs. I did not try with non powered USB hubs for lack of devices. I admit this might not make much sense but I hope this helps someone.
