ricstudioc Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Howdy all - So OK - got my Helix in a couple days back - nice work L6. It ain't bragging if you can back it up, and this is pretty much what I'd hoped it would be. Gotta LOT of stuff to get on Craigslist now...... Question 1 - is there a way to move existing footswitch assignment(s) to another switch, or does one just have to slog thru and do it manually? Some sort of copy/paste that I'm missing? Just trying to rearrange layouts and wonder if there's a time-saver here... Question 2 - maybe comment more than question - the edit knobs under the display seem a tad "wobbly", and on the unit I got one in particular is notably more so. First time I touched it I noticed that it had way more lateral "play" in it. It's NOT like I think it's gonna fall off or such (at least in the near future) - but I wonder if others notice this. If so - any idea how these controls are mounted? I'm resisting the temptation to yank up on the knob (for now), but if it's as simple as tightening a small nut under the knob I wouldn't blink. But if they're board mounted and just sticking up thru the chassis that's a different can o'beans. Any thoughts? All in all I'm way happy - this is what I had hoped the 500x would be. I'm sticking to the basics right now - my band gigs a lot and I want to get this thing ready for upcoming shows - but I'm looking forward to deep-diving when I've got the food groups settled in. Initial impression - worth every penny! Ric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 This was introduced in firmware 1.06.0 Swap Footswitch Assignments—This feature makes organizing Stomp footswitch mode a lot easier, especially when footswitches may have multiple-assigned items or custom labels/LED ring colors. Touch and hold (but don’t press) any two stomp mode footswitches for one second. A dialog box appears, asking if you want to swap all assignments (including custom labels and colors). Press Knob 6 (OK) • When touch-holding a footswitch to invoke Quick Footswitch Assign (or touch holding two footswitches to swap their assignments), the resultant dialog panel automatically closes after four seconds Note: latest firmware is 1.06.5 You should update if you haven't already.
