Continue Looping when changing Presets

Hello all, first post here...

I've been doing searches everywhere, including on here on how to keep a recorded loop going when you change to a different preset. 

I'm using the Helix LT with the 1 Switch Looper.....and have placed a looper an every preset I want to use for looping.  

It did work at one point, but for some reason, it shuts off now when I go to presets that once worked, and I don't know why. 

As I type this, I realize that I changed some of the 1 Switch Loopers from Mono to Stereo.  Are these considered different loopers with will not recognize the fact that a looper is there when you change to a new preset?  I'm going to check that out just in case, but if anyone has any "secrets" to share that must be in place for loops to continue when you change a preset, that would be great.....thanks.

I get the same results as you when I mix & match the stereo and mono 1 Switch Looper across presets. The loop does not persist when changing presets. Mono to mono or stereo to stereo do persist. The Helix seems to treat the stereo and mono 1 Switch Looper as separate entities. Changing position however does not prevent looping but can affect the tone as you would expect. I keep my looper at the first position(for the presets that have one) for auditioning presets with a looper.

Unless they fixed it in 3.11 (I don't think so), it's a bug that popped up a couple of updates ago. They're aware of it (I reported it and got them to acknowledge it) and they're "working on it".

I wouldn't hold my breath.

 

EDIT: That's what I get for being a smart-lollipop. They fixed it!

Excellent....thanks a million.  That possibility just came to me when I was going ask what's wrong, but I wanted to see if anyone else had the same experience.  I'll change them to be all the same and see if that works.  Thanks again...cheers.

Does this mean the preset is corrupted?

 

Hi,

 

That would be my first guess, but when weird stuff starts to happen with the Helix the first thing to try to bring it back on track is a Factory Reset. 

 

Find all the reset Options here:

Hope the helps/makes sense.

Don't know if you worked it out yet, but I just got around to trying the looper and changing presets.

That's what I get for being a smart-a$$. They fixed it!
