elcosomalo Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Hi Guys!, this is more like a little rant. I´ve been wandering in the custom tone catalog for the HX Stomp and found that those 802 tones are not that real in numbers... I see lots of repeated tones I mean, the same tone, same name, same authors; the exact same tone repeated a lot of times. For example, I´ve been seeing this "Mayer'ishStomp" from jaysadites repeated at least 1 time in every page for about 8 + pages. I´m not saying the user is spamming, but we clearly need some maintenance on the database to remove duplicates. Have you seen duplicates too?

brue58ski Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 i put some thing(s) in a long time ago and I seem to remember I wasn't sure at first and put at least one up that I didn't want to but there was NO way to delete it (them). That was awhile ago though. Maybe something like that happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone_Poor_Boy Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Helix user, but the few times I've gone there I see multiple repeats in the first few panels and bail. When I have downloaded presets of value from there it has come from YouTube videos with links usually. I see it as more of a repository but not a good index of them.

madmax49 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 I followed your link to "Mayer'ishStomp" and only see 2 from user "jaysadites ". One was for the stomp and one for the Helix floor. There was another "Mayer'ishStomp" but it was from a different user. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will see that tone repeated. You will also see some "SLASH" tones repeated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try this: https://line6.com/customtone/browse/hx_stomp/6/?sort=rating&sort_dir=desc&search_term= Take a look, you should see "Mayer'ishStomp" in pages 6 to 9 (also in the first one). Then using the same page as it is look for "SLASH" tone you will find it a couple of times (not in 6 to 9, you have to look for it in other pages) Also "Every Breath" from user "jery1001" is repeated in pages 26 to 34. These are just examples, I´m sure the custom tones section is full of dups. Line6 should run a duplicate clean in that database and I´m sure that we will be going from 802 tones to 302 tones.

DunedinDragon Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Well heck...by the time you've gone through researching how many things were dup'd you could have easily built your own preset.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually took me 2 minutes by opening the webpage, browsing tones and seeing the same tones over and over again. No rocket science. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
