ttorus1 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 How can I get Helix Mancuso Sounds artist tone into my HX Stomp? I've tried several times to import downloaded Helix custom tones into my HX; no joy. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttorus1 Posted July 22, 2023 Author Share Posted July 22, 2023 Here's what I get when I try to drag and drop .hlx file: Can I get around the dsp block constraint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, As you can see from the icon in the top left of your CustomTone screen shot, the icon is of a Helix floor unit. The Helix floor has 2 DSP chips and 4 available paths, whereas your Stomp has a single DSP and a max of 2 paths. The Preset was designed to work on a full Helix and it is impossible to load it into your Stomp. When looking for CustomTone Preset, you should select your device in the drop down menu to search for presets that are compatible with the HX Stomp. Hope this helps/makes sense. EDIT: I had a look at the “Mancuso Sounds” preset from CustomTone - it contains 12 blocks and 4 Snapshots. Your HX Stomp can only handle 8 blocks and 3 Snapshots. Not possible, but you could download the demo version of Helix Native DAW Plug-in, which can open it and you can see how it has been constructed.

ttorus1 Posted July 22, 2023 Author Share Posted July 22, 2023 So I could reconstruct the preset in my HX for the 1 preset I'm particularly interested in, or even two separately. OR: can I clear all the unnecessary blocks except what's needed for say Snapshot 1, then download a lighter version for use in the HX? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything works the same in both, you just have to trim things down a bit to fit within the contraints of the Stomp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttorus1 Posted July 22, 2023 Author Share Posted July 22, 2023 Ecstatic! I've now got a total of 5 presets from Mancuso. Tomorrow I can explore those new horizons. Best. ttorus1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
