Effect on/off on same FS & Preset

Newbie here to Helix. Dove  right in , coming up for air. 

 

On an existing preset, set to a particular Fs, I want to be able to just activate on/off an effect (block), in the chain. 

Can I do that? How? 

 

Thanks

Okay. NOW, can I have some (eg. distortion) effect , on or off, on the same foot switch? 

What I mean is , the FS, with its block, is on. Then on the same foot switch, press is on to turn on, another effect. Press it again, that effect , off. Back to the basic block. 

This way I don't need another FS for the effect.

Hope Im explaining what I want to do with it , clearly.

 

Thanks

It's a simple either or toggle.

 

IF

Default (saved state) = FS1 Block1 ON Block2 OFF THEN when you press FS1, Block1 toggles OFF Block2 toggles ON.

 

Only 2 states allowed:

 

You can toggle:

 

both blocks ON

both blocks OFF

 

OR

 

Block1 ON /  Block2 OFF 

Block1 OFF /  Block2 ON

 

Hope that's clear.

Pick a factory preset that has 2 effects.Set 1 ON and the other OFF. Select the one you want ON when you load the preset. In Stomp mode, touch (don't press) a footswitch. On the screen, above the last knob it will say "OK". Press that knob. Select the effect you want to be OFF when you load the preset. Touch the same button. Press the OK knob. Now when you press that footswitch the 2 effects will toggle. When you do this in your own preset, don't forget to SAVE!

 

See page 40 in the manual.
