Ah, now we know what unit you're using it's easier to tell you which Owner's Manual you should check - not all HX devices have built in EXP pedals and require external 3rd party options! https://line6.com/data/6/0a00051afda2673ccc1cc8e68/application/pdf/Helix 3.80 Owner's Manual - English .pdf See page 8 item 16. Expression Pedal. 16. Expression Pedal Move the expression pedal to control volume, wah, or a combination of amp and/or effects parameters. Activate the hidden toe switch to toggle between EXP 1 and EXP 2. (The scribble strip above tells you which one is active.) If an external pedal is connected to the rear panel EXP 2 jack, the built-in pedal becomes EXP 1 only—see "Controller Assign" NOTE: Adding a Wah, Pitch Wham, or Poly Wham block automatically assigns its Position parameter to be controlled by EXP 1. Adding a Volume Pedal or Pan block automatically assigns its Position to be controlled by EXP 2 Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hi, Raise a proper Support Ticket with Customer Service, as noted in the reply above from @silverhead, but a little digging on Google revealed this:- I could be an over zealous Gatekeeper security setting on your machine. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hi, Doh, a zombie thread has arisen. Yeah! The problem is, the OP’s solo gigs were over 5 years back, and I guess the requested info was provided in the follow up posts that came in on the same date. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Correct, the AUX input is a 10k ohm socket, but the Return jack sockets are selectable between Instrument or Line impedance, plus there are more of them on a Helix floor. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hi See the section of the Helix Owner’s Manual regarding USB Audio on page 73. Your playback from the iPad and the Camera Connection Kit is via USB 1&2 through the Helix “Multi IN”, additional controls can be found on page 68, Global Settings In/Out - USB1&2 Destination, and USB1&2 Trim. https://line6.com/data/6/0a00051afda2673ccc1cc8e68/application/pdf/Helix 3.80 Owner's Manual - English .pdf Hope this helps/makes sense.

Ah! Originally I should have asked how you are actually physically connecting your neck and bridge pups to your Helix, HX Stomp, (or whatever - you didn’t mention). I’m guessing it’s a Stomp, which has a Left/Right stereo input option. If you were using a Helix Floor this would be a lot easier - tools for the job. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hi, Hmm… there is a guy here who would beg to differ on that point. Although, he uses a mono output bass into a Helix LT, it is only using the top 2 paths 1A & 1B, it should work on a single DSP Stomp, or Stomp XL. Check this video from 11:49 - everything before that you would probably already know, regarding traditional bi-amping techniques. Hope this helps/makes sense.

Copy and Paste from an earlier post above:- Hi, You’re a little late - IdeaScale is finished - See the Blue Banner at the top of this page named “Ideascale Retirement”. Although, for some mad reason, if you click the link given by @Line6Tony it just brings you back here. Anyhow, 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”). Since the Stadium launched, this has become “the land that time forgot”! You could try posting here:- https://line6.com/company/contact/productfeedback/ Hope this helps makes sense

Hi, The big clue is in the first line of your comment - Nektar with TRS jack. From the Line 6 HX Stomp XL Owner’s Manual - page 7 ”EXP 1/2, FS 7/8 Connect an expression pedal here to adjust a wide variety of parameters.* With a Y-cable (tip-ring-sleeve 1/4" jack, split to two tip-sleeve 1/4" jacks), two expression pedals can be connected. Alternatively, you can add one (or with a Y-cable, two) external footswitches to access additional stomps, presets, snapshots, etc. (FS7=tip, FS8=ring). To set this jack’s function(s), see page 61. By default, this jack is set to accommodate a Mission SP1-L6H Line 6 Expression Pedal, which has a toe switch that toggles between EXP 1 (Wah/Pitch or Poly Wham) and EXP 2 (Volume/Pan). For external footswitches, the momentary (unlatched) type should be used. *NOTE: It is recommended to connect to this EXP1/2, FS 7/8 input while the device is powered off to avoid toggling the current FS 7/8 setting.” Furthermore, there is a diagram on page 63 showing the connection of a single EXP pedal. https://line6.com/data/6/0a00051afe12673ccd29b29f5/application/pdf/HX Stomp XL 3.80 Owner's Manual - English .pdf Hope this helps/makes sense.

Hi, When seeking assistance from other users, it’s a good idea to provide as much information as possible. In this instance it would help to tell us what Helix unit you are trying to control, with what expression pedal - make/model. Not all third party expression pedals will work straight out of the box. I don’t recall that anyone has compiled a list, but IIRC, some pedals may require a little bit of work with a soldering iron to rewire, or modify jack plugs. Please clarify, and please note the default settings are EXP 1 is assigned to Wah and EXP 2 is Volume. The can be changed in the controller assignment. Hope this helps/makes sense.

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.
