grom68 Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 I use a Variax Standard plugged in a Helix LT. I can't manage to change guitar model using the snapshots within the same preset. Apparently the guitar mode cannot be associated to a snapshot. Does someone know something about this issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 First, your Variax needs to be connected via the VDI connection, not the 1/4" jack. Secondly you need to assign the desired Vaariax parameter (e.g. model) to the Snapshot Controller - just like any other parameter you want to control using snapshots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grom68 Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 Unfortunately the guitar model is not in the list ot items that can be assigned. I can find only :input gate, threshold, decay, guitar in Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Yes - it can be assigned. If you're using the device to edit, go to the 2nd edit page of the Input block. If you're using HX Edit all parameters will be visible at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like silverhead said, you have to use the VDI cable and the Variax input to control the Variax model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Standard and the JTV-models are supported by the Helix...as far as I know. Page 20 of the English / American manual should help you find the right adjustements.

Digital_Igloo Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 From the Input > Multi or Input > Variax block, press PAGE> once. Turn Knob 1 (Variax Settings) to choose between setting your Variax parameters globally or per preset. To assign a Variax parameter to snapshot control, PUSH AND TURN its knob. The value will appear white and in brackets. NOTE: 2.80 (out soon) adds an additional page of parameters to adjust each string's volume independently and these can also be set per snapshot.

grom68 Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 Eureka, i've found the solution. Inisde the snapshot, select the variax model on the variax menu, right click on the variax model and select snapshot. It is different from the standard assignment procedure for the other parameters.

It actually isn't, but glad you got it working... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
