BlueViolince Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Does anyone know if the new hot hand 3 expression controller is compatible with the HD 500? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick83Weasel Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Yes, it is. It has a "Line 6 mode", you just have to adjust some switches on the receiver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueViolince Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 Okay, so it came in, and I finally got to mess with it. I have it set to trigger delay feedback, from 0% at my low c string, to 70% at my high e string, based on my bow angle. Really cool. It keeps everything tighter in the lower registers, but lets the high notes echo out. I may also program my eq to keep the higher strings nice and full-sounding, while containing the bass on the low strings. This could become an integral part of my rig. Due to violin-specific hand motions, this is another piece of gear that is totally different for us from how a guitarist may use it, but the amount of usability is comparable. More subtle, so far, but definitely worth the coin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueViolince Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 It is compatible with Helix. I decided to modify my receiver mount. Instead of using it as a ring, I have the transmitter mounted to my shoulder rest. This way, I tip the neck down to change parameters, mostly delay feedback increasing from 15% to 50% when I tip it down. At normal playing position, it's set to lowest delay feedback. Plug the 1/4" patch cord from the HH3 into either expression input, and set whichever parameters you want to control to use that expression input. You can set minimum and maximum values.
