dennisvedel Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 (edited) Hi I have a problem with my HX effects. It is popping from preset to preset but not on all of them. My amp is a EVH 5150iii. I am using 4cm and I am switching the amp via midi (BankPC) It is not doing it on all the B presets. I think that is a bit strange. Is there any thing I can do to make this go away? Or what am I doing wrong? Please help me solve this problem :-) Edited December 11, 2019 by dennisvedel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 I am not familiar with that amp but I assume you are changing the amp's configuration by storing the associated midi commands in the HX FX preset. I also assume you can change the amp's configuration manually if you wish. Do you hear the same popping when you manually change the amp's configuration the same way that your midi commands do? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dennisvedel Posted December 11, 2019 Author Share Posted December 11, 2019 Yes a bank you have preset A B C D. And on the B preset there is no popping. I think that is the most strange thing of it all. Why the pop on some presets and not all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dennisvedel Posted December 11, 2019 Author Share Posted December 11, 2019 Yes I am. Could it be something in the midi configuration ? On the B preset all is good, but on the others the light on the amp flashes and makes a popping noise. If the preset has delay more noise.

silverhead Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Again I ask - does the amp make the popping sound when you reconfigure manually? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennisvedel Posted December 11, 2019 Author Share Posted December 11, 2019 Sorry No it does not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulTBaker Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Don't know if this is related, but I get a popping sound when changing from one voice to another. I use the helix lt and Dt25 connected using the link6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd2rk Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 OP - can you attach all 4 presets so we can look at the MIDI? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codamedia Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 You need to test this without changing any channels on the amp at the same time.... Disconnect the midi Set the amp to it's first channel Roll through the presets to see if the popping is there... take note if any are Repeat bullet 2 &3 for the other two channels on the amp If the pop is ever present (to varying degrees because of the amp settings)... it's the HX presets alone If the popping goes away, it's related to the changing of the amps channels at the same time as the HX presets Post your results and I'll come back with another round of questions. Separate questions... Is this a "soft sounding pop" when you change presets... more like a "thud"... or is a "hard pop", more like a "bam". Does the POP only happen ONCE when you first change the preset... or does it continue to pop repeatedly once the preset is loaded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
