I just gently popped off the Mooer topper and performed the touch (I had Stomp Select turned off) and it worked great. The Simple Delay block is lit by default now - since that's the one I use most of the time any way as 'always on' then when the block is dim it's the Vintage Digital with Tap Tempo. Works great, backed up the preset and created a whole new system backup and I'm good to go Thanks for all your help everyone - I'm not as well versed in the Touch features as i should be. Thanks again all! -ryan

Thanks all, should i be looking in Play (Stomp) mode or Edit Mode? I also have those Mooer Shroom topper heads on all my Footswitch so how light do I need to touch? Maybe I just need to pop FS4's topper off temporarily so I can execute the touch.

If I can just remember it when I look down - The footswitch block on the display is dim but Simple is on, and Vintage is off. Then it flips when I want to use the other one so the display is lit bright green when Simple is OFF and Vintage is ON. That's exactly backwards of how I'd like to be. But if I can remember that I'll be ok. I'm just afraid that I'll forget the display is backwards of what I'm actually hearing, when I'm playing live. :)

Hi everyone, I'm having trouble with the LED ring and display behavior when setting up an A/B toggle between two delay blocks on my HX Stomp XL using HX Edit. The Goal: Assign Footswitch 4 to alternate between Simple Delay and Vintage Digital. When Simple Delay is active/ON, I want the FS4 LED ring and display label to be bright green. When toggled to Vintage Digital, I want the LED ring to dim, and the label to read Simple/Vintage. The Issue: The visual state on the hardware is stuck completely in reverse. Even though Simple Delay is ON (active) and Vintage Digital is OFF (bypassed), FS4 lights up dimmed for Simple Delay and bright green when toggled over to Vintage Digital. The audio toggles as expected, but the LED/display logic is inverted. What I’ve already tried without success: Re-linking order: Unlinking both blocks (setting Source to None), saving, turning Simple Delay ON and Vintage Digital OFF, then re-assigning Simple Delay to FS4 first and Vintage Digital second. Explicit LED Overrides: Trying to set Switch LED manually instead of Auto Color (which updates globally across all blocks assigned to that switch). Capacitive Touch / Focus: Touching FS4 on the hardware while in Stomp mode to try and shift primary focus to Simple Delay before saving. Preset Saves: Saving the preset (Ctrl + S) explicitly while Simple Delay is engaged and bright in the signal chain. Regardless of the re-linking order or saved preset state, the Stomp XL insists on tying the "bright/active" LED state to Vintage Digital instead of Simple Delay. Has anyone encountered this specific bug or hardware focus quirk with multi-assign A/B toggles? Is there a hidden trick or setting to force the LED master focus back to the primary block? Thanks in advance for any advice! -Ryan

Hi all, I just got a new Helix - I have decided to take the plunge and move away from an amp/pedals rig and go direct. I already own a Stomp XL so I'm semi-familiar with the Helix ecosystem and menus etc. I am using my Helix in Stomp mode and have successfully imported all of my presents from my Stomp XL into the Helix - and I have the foot switches assigned and working great. I have a question on how to assign the Expression pedal - I can't figure out how to set it. I want it to be a Volume / Wah on all of my presets globally. Do I have to create Volume and a Wah block and assign them? When I try to create Volume or Wah blocks and assign them to the EXP 1 / 2 I still get no sound. What am I doing wrong?

thanks- that's very helpful. I will have to continue to play around with it. I can see benefits to either mode, I'll have to learn more about each. I'm exploring adding a two-button footswitch too.

I just got a new HP Stomp XL a few weeks ago and am learning it. I am comparing Preset Mode vs Footswitch mode and trying to see which meets my needs the best. Honestly I like both. I was wondering if there's a way to integrate bank scrolling into Footswitch Mode or not? Also, for anyone who has added an external 2-button footswitch to give you more options, which one would be a good one to consider?

I've already submitted a support/repair ticket, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to check in here either. My G50 transmitter pack won't turning on. I've tried 5 different pairs of batteries from 2 different packages. I'm sure I have the +/- poles lined up correctly on the batteries also.

Line 6 tells me that the FBV2 should be working fine with my POD - that both buttons should be able to scroll in either direction. If I could get this to work, that'd be a satisfactory workaround. But currently the left button on my FBV2 does not do anything and it's a brand new unit. They told me to try a different cable or try plugging in the cable after booting up my POD. I'll test some more tonight.

I talked to Line 6 phone support. Technically speaking, they say that the FBV4 does not work with the POD 2.0. But I've heard that it does work - and my POD does have the FBV Pedal jack. I'd like to try it. Otherwise I'll see if I can find an Express preferrably a Mk1. I don't need to make a big expenditure since I'll be it more for band practice than gigging.

I have the slightly newer POD 2.0 with the FBV pedal jack, so which FBV4 or FBV Express should I look for? All I really need is 3-4 buttons at max like crunch, lead/solo boost, clean, and clean boost. I didn't like the FBV2 just because it scrolled and didn't function like a switcher. Which is a shame because it fit very nicely in my POD bag :) Ideally I'd like something would either fit in the POD bag or in my regular gig and cable bag without too much fuss.

Is there a difference between the Mk1 and MkII Shortboards as it would pertain to functioning with my POD 2.0 unit? I'm also looking at the FBV4 and the FB Express. Techinically Line 6 says they won't work with the POD 2.0, but I've read on other forums those would work.

Hi all, I have a POD 2.0 with FBV pedal jack. What are my options for footswitches? I bought an FBV2 but I don't like it since it only scrolls. If I can find a used FBV4 would that work? What would be my other options?

I just bought a FBV2 Footswitch to go with my POD 2.0 (I have a slightly new pod with the FBV Pedal jack). How do I use the FBV2 or is their a manual that comes with it? I only really need to go between clean and crunch on my POD; just a small handful of sound changes.

thanks. that's helpful. :) I wasn't quite sure how to read the indicator lights and display. thanks :)
