Hello! Ty in advance for any/all help!!! Here’s my setup/gear: Yamaha Stagepass, Scarlett 4i4 (3rd gen) iOS Camera kit, BeatBuddy “BB,” (with midi sync cables) and of course my Line6 Helix (Floor unit) I have an iPad Pro (with camera kit for iPhone, and the single usb connector for iPad Pro) Beat Buddy (with foot switch & midi cables) and of course the Floor Helix (full version, not LT or anything) It’s very true about the Helix looper being basic AF, but very nice solution by assigning more than one looper! With that in mind, how should you route your signal flow so it goes from helix, to BB since Apple changed the port type again? Would it go: Guitar>Helix>BB>Mixer>Scarlett 4i4>Camera Kit and still sync up the looper and the BB? Or should I just use send/returns combined with MIDI in/out then just run Helix out to the mixer? * (Not Using any DAW’s) * -
I am wondering if I can midi synch with the M5 Stompbox Modeler? I want to use the delay but rather than tapping the tempo, or using the tempo adjust, i want to have the stompbox automatically synch with my Boss RC-50 loop pedal. I know for a fact you can do this with Strymon Big Sky Reverb for instance. Has anyone tried this? Thanks

I bought a Helix last month and love the sounds and intuitive interface. However, I was sold one from Sweetwater on the promise that it would seamlessly integrate with other pieces of hardware and software via midi. My show is run through ableton, and I was told that it could do everything I needed. It could even program ableton to send midi messages to change my presets, blocks, settings etc. How great! Less time hopping around and more time performing and interacting with the audience. Once I got the unit, before setting up any complicated midi configuration, I simply wanted the unit to read tempos from ableton, so that all of my delays, trems, etc could be synced up without having to awkwardly tap tempo every song. If the helix could change presets and settings based on midi, I assumed this would be an obvious part of it's capabilities. It was not. I called Sweetwater and Line 6 customer service, both of whom seemed equally surprised by my complaint and needed to put me on hold to double check. Both came back with an apologetic tone about how this isn't a feature, but should be. More and more acts are running hybrid sets leveraging ableton, and midi sync needs to be addressed immediately. If it is not, I will be selling my unit and making sure to steer other musicians away. Please address!
