Hi all
I got Helix and I'm really digging the sound of it, so I'm getting ready to use it for some forthcoming festivals.
To my disappointment I discovered only yesterday that delay/reverb spillover is not for patches but only for Snapshots (I know why etc. is not the point here, I just hope at some point they'll implement it between patches if they have the same delay/reverb effect).
So I converted my 4 basic sounds into a single patch and organised them in Snapshot...needed some rearrangement, but they work! So I'm going to play using my 4 Snapshots AND some programmed footswitches to change these 4 base sounds.
I do have a problem though: this means I'll load ONE patch, and will leave always that one on, and all I'll need is switching between my Snapshots view OR my Stomp view. QUESTION: is there a way for me to switch between those two views using the Mode switch?
The only way I found to switch between Snapshots and Stomp is to load my patch, stomp on Mode (so that I load Stomp View), and then having to press UP/DOWN together to go Snapshot, press them again to back to Stomp, press them again to go back to Snapshot etc., so basically the way is to always press TWO switches together.
As some of you know, just before a solo or while singing etc. it can be tricky to press precisely two switches, and if I don't then the banks (as a safety net for me so I don't change sound accidentally) is loaded, and I have to try again pressing those two switches to return to Snapshot or Stomp.
Is there an obvious alternative way I'm missing to press just ONE switch (possibly Mode) to toggle between Snapshot/Stomp? At the moment Mode seems always and only to switch between Preset and Stomp, without possibility to change it to switch between Snapshot and Stomp.
Am I (I hope!) missing something?
