Hey there. Long time HX Effects user here.
I am thinking about upgrading to the Floor to take advantage of the extra footswitches/scribble strips, effect loops, and built in expression pedal, and more blocks. I also know you can have 2 chains? Not sure I would need that.
I currently 4cm my HX Effects with a Marshall DSL100hr. I use one pedal in loop 2 , a OCD. A volume pedal I use for expression. I also use the HX FX to switch channels on my Marshall via MIDI.
Anyways, does anybody use the Helix Floor strictly for effects only, no modeling? Is using the built in expression pedal for a wah is easier to use than an outboard pedal?
Of course setting up a few modeling presets to go in direct FOH in case of an emergency would be great also.
Thanks
