Wallyg Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Love the new Update! Finally a great SRV tone ( first time since my Vetta days!) with the Litigator and found a brilliant EVH tone from the Archetype using a Fremen IR! I cant find the 8 stomp global setting which I use exclusively. Kinda forcing me to use Snapshots which I haven't used much yet. I have 4 shows this week....am I overlooking it (wouldn't be the first time) or is it gone? Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_m Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 I think you're confusing things. There are really two basic modes for the Helix out of the gate - Stomp and Preset - and you can toggle between them by using the Mode switch. In Preset Mode, you have a bunch of choices to what's displayed by using the Preset Mode Switches setting under Global Settings > Footswitches > Knob 2. But 8 Stomps isn't one of the choices there (it would be redundant since having 8 stomps in Preset Mode would kind of defeat the purpose of having Preset Mode). In Stomp Mode, you do have the choice of using 8 or 10 stomp switches, and that's another setting under Global Settings > Footswitches > Knob 3. I said there are two basic modes, but there is also Snapshot Mode, and to get into that you have to hit the bank up and down switches simultaneously. So it's a little hard to get into it accidentally, but you may have, I suppose. If you have the Preset Mode Switches setting set to anything other than "8 Snapshots", and you're seeing 8 snapshots, you're actually in Snapshot Mode. To get out of it, hit the bank up and down switches simultaneously (just tap them once, don't hold them down). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallyg Posted November 25, 2016 Author Share Posted November 25, 2016 Thanks Phil! I forget about the mode switch as I never use it except when I accidentally step on it while singing. I figured I was overlooking something! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
