Unwanted scrolling of HX Stomp presets

[jsdehlers]

Hi,

 

I have HX Stomp and have successfully connected the Mission Engineering TT-2 two switch box to add FS4 and FS5. Now, it's not working and may (not sure) be due to updates in the soft or firmware. Asking if anyone is having problems getting the ME box working.

 

I have TRS cable from ME TT2 into the HX. I've confirmed correct global settings but what's weird is that when I insert the TRS cable into the HX the presets start scrolling. No way to stop it either than disconnecting the cable.

 

I tested on another new HX unit a friend had with two different cables. Unfortunately, the same behavior so this seems something more than one bad unit. I've written to ME but no response.

 

Anyone have a similar experience? And if so, any solution?

 

Thanks.

 

John

I don't have one, but but when I was researching switch boxes I seem to recall reading that there were internal configuration switches. You might want to watch the use video on the Mission website.

Thanks for coming back on this question. You're right. Unscrewing the back plate there is a dip switch for TRS or TR referring to the cable connection to use. I have switch on TRS and using a TRS cable. I'm pretty sure it's not that as the problem seems to be in the HX Stomp unit. It will not recognize the footswitch on the TT-2 and when the cable it inserted into the FS4/FS5 port, the HX presets scroll one after the other.

My $20 Moskey Dual Switch works perfectly using TRS. I can't imagine that the much more expensive TT2 won't work.

 

Are your settings:

 

GLOBAL>Preferences:

Exp/FS TIP = FS4

Exp/FS RING = FS5

 

GLOBAL>Footswitches:

FS4 Function = Stomp 4

FS5 Function = Stomp 5

 

HX EDIT SETTINGS>Device Settings:

FS4 Function = Stomp 4

FS5 Function = Stomp 5
