I believe that Snapshot parameter control has a limit of 64 parameters. At least it did in OG Helix and I haven’t seen any info to the contrary in Stadium. Any reasonably complex or powerful preset would exceed that limit quickly if all parameters for every block were included. A single amp and cab would chew up nearly half of that, never mind the multi tap 6 delay block. How would you want to be able to specify your desired 64 when the limit is exceeded? But perhaps this limit has quietly been removed in Stadium. I’m not 100% sure.

Open a support ticket. The POD Go drivers support Mac and full Windows systems. I don’t know if that includes surface devices.

I found this in the HN a manual. It may be relevant: NOTE: You’ll need to configure your DAW host application to receive MIDI Control input from your external MIDI controller device or software. These settings are typically found within the DAW application’s Preferences. Additionally, it is often necessary to configure your DAW host track routing so that the external MIDI Controller data is fed directly to your current Helix Native plugin instance. This often requires using a MIDI or Instrument track to receive the MIDI input and then route it to the audio track on which the Helix Native plugin inserted. Please see your application’s documentation for details.

I believe it’s just particular DAWs. So it likely doesn’t affect too many users. I use Sonar and I have this issue. If it applied to everyone I’m sure we’d be seeing more reports here.

I don’t remember exactly. You may have to arm tracks with ALL USB channels selected (1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7, and 8) before any other than 1/2 deliver a signal to your DAW.

“So you’re saying there’s a chance?” It will be considered if there are enough feature requests for it. It already exists for presets and setlists; a change to any USER preset is propagated in all setlists using that preset. If you are one of many users requesting it it could happen. How many users? Many more than just you. Aye, there’s the rub. So anyone reading this who also would like it should also submit a feature request for it.

You're right. That functionality does not yet exist. Submit a feature request here: https://line6.com/company/contact/productfeedback/

You can’t send them individually to the FOH but you can adjust all the things you mention in the Matrix Mixer, and then send the pre-mixed stereo signal to FOH from the Stadium Send 1/4" outputs, independent of the XLR outputs.

… moved to the patch promotions area….

This is a known bug that I encountered using Sonar (post Bandlab - free version) and reported. It also affects USB 3/4 and 5/6. It will be fixed in a future update. There is a workaround. As long as USB 1/2 is armed for recording on one track all other USB channels are available for selection on other tracks.

… in other words they will sound identical as long as you don’t replace the amp with an Agoura model….

USB works with a Mac/PC but I don’t think it works with an Android phone. You can use the Stomp’s Aux inputs with an adapter to carry your Android analog audio output to the Stomp’s 1/4” stereo inputs. You can record directly to a Mac or PC using the Stomp’s USB but I don’t think you can record directly to the Android.

Assuming they work on different equipment … Make sure the volume for the headphones is set at a reasonable level and is not muted (see Main Volume / Matrix Mixer section in manual).

You need to change the settings in every preset. You can use Global EQ for venue-specific tone settings. That’s only EQ though; you would still need to adjust Reverb in every preset.

There is a banner at the top of this page which you can use to apply to become a beta tester.

I don’t think that will work. A preset does not generate or include audio. It contains a data specification of all the parameters required (e.g. body, pickups, tuning, etc.) for the firmware to generate the audio associated with that specification using the DSP included in the firmware. An older preset will not generate audio using the older firmware/DSP; it will use the current DSP (modeling algorithms) loaded with the current firmware to generate the audio associated with the old specification. In other words, a v1.71 preset specifying an acoustic model that is loaded into v2.x firmware will use the v2.x acoustic modeling, not the v1.71 modeling.

Since your device is new you have no personal/ custom presets and hence no need to perform a backup first. However the backup is a mandatory part of the firmware update procedure, which you will appreciate when you DO have custom data. A firmware update does not overwrite any of the existing presets in the device, neither custom nor factory presets. It does not automatically install any factory presets. So if you want any new factory presets you should perform the recommended factory reset, which does install them. However, it also deletes any custom presets. That’s where your backup comes in. My standard firmware update procedure is: 1. Perform the firmware update, which includes the mandatory pre-update backup. 2. Perform the factory reset, which includes installing the factory presets associated with that version of firmware 3 Restore your backup file created in Step 1, but selecting not to install setlists 1, 2, and 8 (the factory presets). After those three steps you will have the new firmware, the new factory presets, and all your custom presets, Global Settings, IRs, and Favourites that were on your device before the update.

There is a very reasonably priced eBook available on Sweetwater called The Big Book of Helix Tips and Tricks. It is authored by a regular contributor here named Craig Anderton. I have no affiliation with him and I am endorsing, not promoting, his product. I find it to be an invaluable resource and, given your question, I think it would be a disservice to you not to mention it. Detailed explanations of all FX blocks and their parameters is just one of the many things it covers.

The HX FX device excludes amp/cab modeling. You can find HX FX presets in the Customtone area of this website (see top of this page). You can use HX Edit (I think - or Helix Native) to load these presets into your LT device.

I asked because it is known that startup is quite prolonged after new IRs are added. But that may not explain your situation since you haven't added IRs recently.

Have you recently imported IRs?
