  1. You assign the foot switches to what you want to control per preset. Each one can have up to 8 parameters/effects assigned to be toggled per switch, I believe.
  2. That's really strange there... Wow

    Helix Vs. AX8

    After owning Axe FX II XL+, Kemper, and Helix, I've been able to coax tones and feel I'm looking for from all three. Hence the Axe and Kemper being sold once I put the Helix through the ringer. I really think it all boils down to form factor, what effects you're looking to use, and some psychological "mine sounds better than yours" activity at this level of quality. I haven't even begun to experiment completely with all the cab options and amp settings, and I've done a LOT of tweaking! There are tones left in the Helix that I still haven't begun to explore. It will be a busy year, but the good problem with Helix is that I tweak something and then don't quit playing through that patch for an hour sometimes. In essence, it makes me want play more than tweak! :)
  4. That would suck. Heel off wah is a great feature...
  5. Ouch. That sucks... Hate loading patches.
  6. Make sure you installed the latest hardware driver for the operating system.
  7. I have yet to actually use an IR with Helix! LoL! I'll have to download and try these. Thanks for your efforts and generosity!
  8. i think I got that nag screen... I think I had to click the "more" button/link on the Windows 10 security popup box and then click something like "run anyway". Software ran fine and installed Updater.
  9. Would be super cool to be able to use the editor offline for sure!
  10. Yeah, I'm a stickler about saving all of my user setlists and patches regularly after edits and before firmware/software updates. I have all of them from every update on Dropbox. LoL! Mr. Paranoid!

    Scribble strips has to be absolutely one of the greatest features of the Helix now that Line 6 emulation hangs well with the big boy toys. I don't know how I survived without them before. LoL!

    I believe you and I are not "fan boys"either. Big fan of all of the new Big 3 brands... just prefer Helix due to great tone in my form factor and convenience ala Helix. :)

    Definitely a good time! I keep finding myself playing for hours on a few different patch concoctions now than I do tweaking... I must be happier with my Helix than I was with my Axe II XL+ and my Kemper Rack. I loved them, too, though. Don't miss the separate midi/controller pedal anymore at all. I guess Helix seems to satisfy all of my needs. Can't go wrong with any if them, though.

    Guess that decision was made already... LoL!
  15. Page is really becoming a wiki level basket of information! Great job, and thanks!
  16. Never hurts to duplicate most of the chain... then just leave space to try combined and separate amp/cab models... Love my Helix better than the old HD, though. Hehe. Not that I didn't tweak like a madman to coax some good tones out of the HD.
  17. Sounds like things are a nightmare for you in India... Ouch. Good luck with your search...
  18. That poor guitar... it has bruises now... ACk!!! :)
