zooey Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Is there any way to have a single footswitch toggle between 3 states, meaning 3 different sets of enabled and disabled blocks, and/or 3 sets of parameter settings? Like for instance, for a distortion block, between disabled, enabled and relatively tame default settings, and enabled with face-melt drive and level settings? My guess is no, just thought I'd ask instead of assuming that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricksteruk Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Not currently but it might be useful if it's possible. Could it be done by using a "hold" long pedal press Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicGeek Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Or a "rotative state" switch: state 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 4, 1,.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zooey Posted April 27, 2016 Author Share Posted April 27, 2016 Or a "rotative state" switch: state 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 4, 1,.... That's what I meant.. In my example, click once to get calm distortion, again for face-melt, again, turn it back off. Not sure what the UI for setting that up would be like though. While we're talking UI, shoutout for the Helix UI in general, just really awesome. Most things I want to do all the time, and that's a bunch, have some super handy way to get there. Really fluid to work with. Lots of thought and user testing went into this. There's really nothing else like it. Great work, L6! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(even if I complain about niggles sometimes I still love it!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is no, just thought I'd ask instead of assuming that. Not right now but I remember a response a while back from DI that indicates it is possible. I had asked if there was a way for a footswitch to detect two clicks in fast succession (similar to a double-click on a mouse) and he said theoretically the footswitch could detect it. So who knows, maybe at some point either a hold or double-click option will get implemented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
