Helix HX Expression Pedal Position

[robberns]

So I have dedicated EXP 2 on my HX to be a volume pedal, and set the Position to "Global". I want the position of the pedal to stay the same across all presets and snapshots.

It isn't working. I can pull the volume pedal all the back (0% volume) on one preset, switch to another preset and the volume jumps to 100%, even thought the pedal is still all the way back.

Am I not understanding the idea of a Global position?

I did put in a support ticket but figured I'd ask the forum in case someone else has had the same issue.

Thanks!

Yes, the pedal position should be remembered when you have it set to global. What expression pedal are you using? Are you sure you're setting the EXP2 parameter and not EXP1? I know that's a simple thing, but, hey, sometimes it happens...

Yeah, I thought that was what should happen. I'm using a Mission EP-11 that I modified for TS wiring. It works fine as an expression pedal for any parameter I ask it to.

And yes, I am setting EXP2, which is dedicated to volume. 

And running current firmware BTW.

Confirmed with L6 tech support, this feature is not working in the current firmware.

Glad I'm not losing my mind.

i just ran into the same bug. actually that's a real problem, playing live to me! can we expect that this is gonna be fixed, soon? i mean it's obviously a bug as it works in the other Helix-units already.
