brianiac Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Forgive me if my pre-search proves lazy; however, I purchased a new HX Stomp, received it yesterday, got home and plugged it in to find all preset slots are empty. Is this correct? I presumed there would be factory presets, along the lines of those demo'd in L6 product videos. If correct, no problem. If not, is there a location to get them? Not a deal breaker, at all. This unit seems to be EXACTLY what I was hoping it to be and so far, Line 6 has delivered a great product.

phil_m Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Do a factory reset and the factory presets with show up. Hold down all three footswitches while powering up, and that will reset it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianiac Posted November 13, 2020 Author Share Posted November 13, 2020 From Line 6 (after more digging): HX Reset Procedures From Sweetwater: Erase all presets/IRs: Hold all three footswitches. Erase and reset all presets + IR’s: Hold footswitches 1 + 2. Erase and reset allpresets + IR’s + global settings: Hold footswitches 2 + 3. I'll give your advice and these a go when I'm back to the unit. Thanks for your response, phil_m. Also a bit of follow-up from Sweetwater is that I bought the House Of Worship version which resulted in the preset wipe, coupled with an email of other settings - which I'd not gotten to, yet. Stoked to dig in more, just anticipated existing presets and they weren't there. OK...maybe I freaked out a bit...I just wanted to jam, though. Can't hold that against an old guy, right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recently some one bought the HX Stomp package and the presets wouldn’t load because they exceeded the block limits of the Stomp. See link. Hope this makes sense.

It does and thanks for directing toward that. I'll comment back this weekend on my findings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianiac Posted November 15, 2020 Author Share Posted November 15, 2020 So... Holding buttons 2 & 3 at POWER ON installed factory presets. Quickly made a few basic presets for last night's direct to PA jam and all worked well. I'm certain spending time will result in much better presets and improvements all the way around. Really happy with the quick results, though. Made some pedalboard changes this afternoon and am really looking forward to getting to know the HX Stomp better. The HOW preset bundle extracted with separate Helix and HX Stomp folders, therefore, was super easy and functional. Hopefully this thread will aide anyone searching "factory presets" as I did and get them quickly rolling. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Simply hold down buttons 2&3 while turning on the power, just as stated above. That’s all there is to it. Hope this helps/makes sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutlu Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Please use right terms. FS 1 + FS 2 + Power up does NOT erase IR's. It resets presets only. This is a very important point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goggles Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 My brand new Stomp XL did not list any preset names when i first turned on the unit. I was not able to find a backup file of the HX Stomp XL factory preset. So I did a factory reset and created a backup file. hope this helps confused / new users.
