Global Blocks....different approach...maybe

So there was a post in the Helix TGP thread where someone mentioned being able to change between favorites via snapshots.  Got me thinking...this could be a very simple way to create a 'global block' approach to things.

 

You can already change IR's via snapshots, any reason why this wouldn't apply to Favorite Slots as well?  I don't know much about coding things.

I read the same post on TGP and I don't think he was saying what he appeared to be saying., and I have no clue what that was!

Favorites are just FX Blocks with your settings applied. The same rules apply as with any other FX Blocks. Snapshots can turn them ON/OFF and change parameters within, but you can't, for instance, swap Favorite OD1 for Favorite OD2 unless they're both in the preset. I think if that were possible for Favorites it would be possible for any FX. Also, they are in no way Global. and if you save changes to the copy in the preset those changes do not apply to the copy in the Favorites list or anywhere else.

 

Of course. 3.2 or 3.3 could change all that, you never know what the Wizards at L6 have up their magical sleeves!

Lol, I agree with your first statement for sure.  

 

Yeah that is true, I did not think of it in terms of DSP and how that would affect things changing from Favorite amp 1 - Brit 2204 changing to Favorite amp 2 - Badonk and the differences in the DSP required for those.  Good point.
