How do you reset the global settings if you are not able to access HX Edit. I just had an issue at home and had to reset.  I have an upcoming gig and realized if I needed to do this manually how is it done?  I know there is a way but cannot remember the steps.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards,

Rich

Hi Rich,

 

It’s a big help to say what hardware you want to reset - but here ya go - all of them.

To use Reset Options:

  • Power off the Helix
  • Hold the desired button combination

Please note: Buttons are numbered from top left to bottom right.

 

Helix Rack

Since the rack doesn’t have footswitches, you’ll instead hold down a combination of the 6 encoders that are below the main LCD screen as you’re booting up.

Button Combination

ENC3 & ENC4

Restore stock presets and setlists

ENC4 & ENC5

Are we confusing the terms "reset" and "restore" in this thread?

  • HX Edit can RESTORE (from a backup) but doesn't RESET
  • Hardware start procedures can RESET but can't RESTORE! 

Of course... if you only use the default GLOBAL options then a RESTORE or RESET of the Global Settings can get you to the same result.

I wondered about that, but the thread title does say “reset”.

 

Therefore...

 

Oh, no... I forgot to stick in the “get out of jail free” disclaimer - 

“No guarantees are given or implied, you do this at your own risk. If it doesn’t work, raise a ticket with Customer Support.”

 

I may shorten that to - “be careful what you ask for”.

 I had twice  lost the scroll mode which I use to perform. Luckily it has only happened at home. I think my big feet hitting more than one thing at a time.

The following allows you to restore the global settings without loosing all your presets.

 

Resetting All Global Settings:

Resetting the Global Settings returns them to factory default. Performing this reset does not affect any presets you may have created.

1. From the Global Settings menu, press ACTION.

2. Press Knob 1 (Factory Settings). The following dialog appears: Cancel, OK Factory Settings?

3. Press Knob 3 (OK)
