You need to be signed into your Line 6 account in HX Edit in order to import those. The .hir files are DRM protected and are tied to your account. As long as your Helix is registered to the same account that Native is licensed to, they should work.

No, I don’t work for them… Like Silverhead mentioned above, I have an association with them through the Expert User program. Just seeing the development process of thr POD Go, which took quite a long time, I know Line 6 doesn’t plan on abandoning it anytime soon. Of course, plans can change if sales aren’t there or something like that. I’ve not seen evidence of that. The GX100 is $170 more than POD Go, which isn’t insignificant in this bracket. I know a major goal with the POD Go was keeping it $500 or less. I actually don’t know how much of a threat the Boss products are to the line. Boss has always been there, and they’ve always made good products, but I think there’s a good number of people who simply won’t give Boss stuff a second look. Anyway, like I said, I’m not saying Line 6 won’t be doing anything new. They certainly will, and it’s not going to be in response to any particular product, though. Development takes a long time. Anything that comes out within the next few years has been in development for a few years already.

Yes - you can assign snapshots to stomp switches in Stomp Mode using the HX Snapshot command in the Command Center.

Well, I guess it’s hard to exactly comment without hearing, but if you have an effects-heavy patch, and you start layering overdubs, it can get to sound kind of messy pretty quick. For example, if you’re looping a delayed sound and your loop timing is a little off from the delay repeats, every pass you record on top of the original signal could have repeats that are misaligned with the earlier pass. Many times with looping, less truly is more, as it’s better to layer a bunch of simple part rather a few more complex parts.

I’m absolutely positive that there isn’t a POD Go replacement coming anytime soon… I can’t go into all the details, but it’s going to be around for a long while. That’s not to say new products won’t be coming out, but nothing that’s going to be a next gen POD. I don’t think Line 6 is really going to try to play in the super inexpensive end of the market. Basically, they can’t afford to…

There won’t be a next generation POD Go for a long time. The POD Go isn’t even that old. It was announced at NAMM 2020, about 2.5 years ago. The POD Go Wireless was announced in Spring of 2021.

That shouldn’t be an issue as long as you have a MIDI source that can do what you want. Just set each of the Helixes to its own MIDI channel and set the MIDI commands accordingly.

Oh, yeah, sure… And you just happened to open up this account to complain… I have moderator rights here, so I approve new accounts by the way of approving the first posts. But I’m sure it’s all a coincidence that you say the same under all your different alts…

Seriously, dude… Don’t you have anything better to do? You’ve trolled the Facebook group, TGP, and here under different usernames. If you don’t like the POD Go, sell it and move on. Don’t complain about it for months on end.

You can have Native installed on up to four different computers, and you don’t have to have the hardware connected to use any of them.

Do you have FX Loop turned on in the preset?

Make sure you have HX Edit closed if you’re using Updater, as Updater won’t recognize your Helix if both are open at the same time.

When you say it doesn't click, do you mean it doesn't work, or that it just doesn't audibly click?

I wouldn’t have very high expectations for using the pitch effects with an acoustic guitar…

It works fine for me in Reaper on my M1 Mac Mini. It has for quite awhile now.

You need to open a support ticket: https://line6.com/support/tickets/add.html

Use two instances of the Heir Apparent block and assign each to its own switch. It’s functionally the same as one Tone Sovereign block.

You also need to update POD Go Edit to version 1.30. You actually have done that first before updating the hardware.

It works fine. No problems with Monterey with my M1 Mac and the Helix.

Certainly it has some sort of USB inputs… USB C or Thunderbolt, I imagine. You just need to use an adapter or a hub (a good powered hub should work, despite Line 6’s warnings against them).

Which gate models on the Helix have you tried? Have you tried the Horizon Gate? I find that to be the best sounding one. Also, where are you putting it? It seems to me that there shouldn’t be any stuttering with any of the gates, really. I know this doesn’t answer your question about the external pedal, but it would be better if you could find a way to get the internal gates to work for you.

You mean copying a preset from the Stomp XL to the POD Go? No - there's no compatibility between the two products, even at the block level. You could recreate an XL preset in the POD Go manually by using the same parameters, but that's it.

Yes, there were hardtail versions as well.

You should receive an activation code for the software from the retailer you bought it from, I believe.

Why do you doubt you’ll hear back about your ticket? They’ll respond. That’s really the only path to take.
