As stated by @rd2rk in the post above, this is probably not going to happen, as the new Helix Stadium does not support NAM profiles, and Proxy is the Line 6 version of captures/profiles or whatever they are named. What you are seeking is already possible, and to save me from hours of typing, check out this video. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hi, Well, good luck with that, because it’s possible to create some totally crazy rigs. I have been using my Helix on an almost daily basis since 2015, and I don’t think I have even come close to pushing it over the edge, but then I guess that I never needed to. Have fun, and keep on experimenting until you find that elusive tone.

Hi, Well, in order to assist in tracking down the offending “blooming” C or D note, it would be a great help if we could all hear this anomaly. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hi, Way back at the dawn of electric guitar time, it was common to have some effect such as Tremelo, built in between the pre and power amp. There is absolutely no reason that you cannot compile a preset using a similar approach. In fact, available from Sweetwater is the “Big Book of Helix Tricks” version 1.5, by sometime forum contributor, @craiganderton Craig Anderton, in which he has included a free preset for purchasers to use. It is in the Free Files folder, Chapter 3, Vintage Echo Amp. As it is part of the download package when you buy the book, I am not allowed to share it here, but needless to say, it is vey simple to create something similar using a Preamp, an effect (eg Spring Verb), and a suitable cab. Keep on experimenting - in the digital world there is very little danger of blowing anything up. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hmm… well, I would guess that Steve Sterlacci, or his wife Jessica, are the best people to ask! Having said that, and having had a quick peek at one of his videos, I would guess that it looks like a piece of foam packaging that you might find if you bought an FX Pedal which featured adjustment knobs, although it does appear to have the word “STOMPER” on top. Hope this helps/makes sense.

No, it’s Thursday! Thirsty? Yes, I am - I need a drink! :-)

Huh? The question is about Helix floor!

Hi, I’m not entirely sure I understand what you are describing here. A bit more detail my be helpful. Try to be more explicit about the nature of the “skips” or “diminishes”. What are you doing when this occurs? Is it always at the same point, and how frequently does this happen? The usual “trick”, when your Helix starts to do weird stuff, is perform a Factory Reset. Hope this helps/makes sense. Reset Options Helix Floor/LT Button Combination Description 2 LED light Fun 3 & 4 Test Mode 5 & 6 Global reset 7 & 8 Reset setlists to factory, Keep IRs 8 & 9 Reset setlists to factory, Clear IRs 9 & 10 Reset setlists to factory, Global reset, Clear IRs 10 & 11 Upgrades existing presets to latest format 11 & 12 Clear current preset 5 & 12 Clear setlists, clear IRs, Return system settings to default 6 & 12 Safe boot mode To use Reset Options: Power off the Helix Hold the desired button combination Power on the Helix Release the button combination Please note: Buttons are numbered from top left to bottom right.

Hi, This is a user to user forum. There are no Line 6 staff here and only very occasionally do they visit these forums - (See the “sticky comment” in the black banner stripe at the top of this page entitled “Welcome to the Line 6 forums”). If you want to know what is happening in Line 6 world, you need to check over on The Gear Page, in the Digital and Modeling section. IIRC, there has been recent rumours of an imminent release of a Native software version of the new Stadium hardware. How true it is, I don’t know, but you can forget any major advances with the first generation version of Native. If you want to use NAM A2 download the updated plugin and patch it in on your DAW. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Well, the info given by @rd2rk in the post above is correct, but you obviously didn’t look too far to find a video demonstrating how to use the Looper function on the LT - YouTube has quite a few, but here ya go:- Regarding your comment - “I hope Line 6 manuals writers read this as well“, you should make a note that this is a user to user forum. There are no Line 6 staff here and only very occasionally do they visit these forums - (See the “sticky comment” in the black banner stripe at the top of this page entitled “Welcome to the Line 6 forums”). Furthermore, the manuals were originally written, several years back, by Eric Klein (Digital_Igloo) Chief Product Design Architect at Yamaha Guitar Group, but he seems to have gone off in another direction and is rather busy with the new Stadium units. If you wish, you can usually find him hanging out in the Digital and Modeling section over on the TGP website, or the Helix Family area of Facebook. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hi, I have to agree with you that there is some sort of technical reason for this, in much the same way that a lot of the hardware control options available on the Helix devices are not accessible in Helix Native. It’s the nature of the beast. One thing which confuses me more than anything with this quibbling about an editing feature not being available in HX Edit, is the fact that in order to use HX Edit with the hardware unit, it requires that they are physically connected via a USB cable. AFAIK, the theoretical max recommended length of a USB2 cable is approx 5 meters (16.4 feet), not exactly the ends of the earth, and I would imagine that most folk are actually tethered to their device with a much shorter cable, possibly around 2 or 3 meters. And this is a problem? I guess that, in this modern world, the average multi-fx user has become too idle to reach down and make a physical change to their Helix (whatever model). I mean it’s not like modifying Global Settings is something that requires regular hourly changes and updates to the unit. I have been using my Helix floor for more than 10 years and the amount of times that Global Settings has interfered with my workflow would be… now let me see, ah, yeah - never. Oh, and because I’m a studio rat, I have my Helix on a stand, within arms reach - works for me, but I also have a bad back from many years of lugging heavy equipment around. It’s not exactly a life and death issue, although you did manage to wake dead thread. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hi, again. I’m still slightly confused by some of this situation you describe. Correct, the release notes do state that it is possible to go “straight from xx to xx”, but having said that, there was a huge change to the Helix Core at v2.80 which means that had to be installed correctly and reverting to any earlier versions would render unusable any presets built in the new version. It appears you were updating from version 2.92 to 3.7 so, in theory, you should have been fine with that. Although, once again, I’m perplexed as to why you didn’t simply jump up to the very latest firmware 3.80 The Missing Link Update, which contains the very latest “bug fixes” and is recommended for all users. This link provides the Line 6 Recommended Update process:- https://kb.line6.com/updating-helix-hx Lots of points to remember with this - such as using the latest version of HX Edit before starting the update, and closing any other software that may interfere with the installation, and finally, wait for all the presets to be rebuilt and then restore from backup. When weird and unexpected things happen with your Helix, perform a factory reset, rebuild presets to bring them into line with the latest operating system, and if that fails, do a clean install of the latest firmware. Oh, and if you’re using a Mac, never let it lose focus of the HX Edit window during the installation which can screw things up, plus there is always the chance of “human error”. This is from someone who has had 10 years of essentially trouble free updates. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hi, As noted above - you have not “learned”, but possibly you may have “heard”, on the interweb, about users having to “readjust” presets. Basic logic would seem to indicate that this would be a really dumb thing to do to a product with a firmware update. Quite simply it’s not a good business model to screw around with your user base presets who may rely on this hardware/audio for a living. I have owned a Helix from it was first released, with the original firmware, and done every firmware update since, (somewhere around 30) and never had any issues with “adjustments”. All updates are meant as improvements to the existing audio signal. In fact the main change was a major improvement to the Helix Core engine at Firmware 2.80 - everyone seemed to be happy with that, and even more so with the version 3.50 update to the Cabinets. Your comment seems to indicate that you have only “learned” this, rather than actually experienced some sonic weirdness after an update which drove you to modifying all 1024 presets. Unless you are one of those golden eared cork sniffer audiophiles - forget it! Or read all the relevant release notes about each Firmware update here:- https://helixhelp.com/release-notes Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hi, Try here - page 8 https://line6.com/data/6/0a00051afdbe673ccc8bdcf2d/application/pdf/HX Effects 3.80 Owner's Manual - English .pdf Hope this helps/makes sense.

Huh? In that link, above, @codamedia mentions that he uses the M-Audio EXP with his HXFX, and also points to an earlier post in the thread by phil_m who has posted a diagram of a simple rewire project. I never really understood why anyone would want to pay the high side of $200 for a variable resistor in a metal box with a treadle. They all do the same job, you pay your money, and… Hope this helps/makes sense
