Clear. There's no magic trick. Guess I'll have to try my presents in as many different situations as possible (home, studio, live) and make the most of the soundcheck. It's down to tuning the individual effects of each preset. Thanks for your input

@craiganderton it's the first. i want to avoid volume spikes (or drops) when changing from one preset to the next. I guess there's no magic trick that would normalize to a consistent volume regardless of the selected preset. BTW i'm using the HX Effects, not the Helix. How do you tweak your settings from studio to live performance prior to the actual gig? During soundcheck? Thank you for feedback

I created a bunch of patches for an upcoming gig (first time live with the HX FX). Some patches are merely a clean sound with a compressor, others add a pitch shifter to that, and yet others are more complex with a Fuzz, Overdrive and Distortion. As most of the individual effects have one or more parameters to set their individual volume (or level or drive), not all effects have the same overall volume level. I want to save the sound engineer from a heart attack each time i change presets so i was wondering if there's an easy way to set the same output volume for all those patches. Now i attempt to balance the parameters of the different effects separately, but i'm afraid it's not good enough like that. Any suggestions? TIA PS this is for an active bass guitar, and I don't use any expression pedals.

One of the main reasons to buy the HX Effects was to ditch my pedalboard which included the Digitech Drop. HX FX Simple Pitch does the job, from -3 to +5, though the latter I only use to practice a transposed song with the original track. thats on bass, not guitar
