controlling hx stomp with helix cc.

[silent_scream]

hey all,

 

I own an hx stomp and a helix as well, and I'm trying to control the hx stomp via helix's command center by midi.

 

I can set up the cc to switch on a particular preset of the hx stomp, but it switches to the original preset's snapshot that was saved to. is there a way I could switch to a preset and to a snapshot different than the one that was saved? eg switch to preset 1b snapshot 2, and in another cc patch switch to preset 1b snapshot 3.

I assume that you're using an Instant Command to call the Preset. Set a second IC to send CC#69 with a Value of 0 (Snapshot 1), 1 (snapshot 2) or 2 (Snapshot 3).

yeah, i've already tried that, and it does not work..

 

It should though..

That's exactly what I did too. It loads the preset but only in the snapshot it was saved.

It works for some presets that only have one path, but not always.

 

I connect one midi cable from helix midi out to hx stomp midi in. Do I need to connect both midi cables?

I was sure I had this working, but you are correct. When combined with a PC#, the HXS Preset loads with the saved Snapshot, not the one specified in the Instant Command.

Once loaded, you can change the HXS Snaps with the Helix Snaps, but not on load.

I've opened a support ticket on this, let's see what support says about it.

Could be a bug!
