How to maintain expression pedal state of SP1-L6H between Presets on HxStomp?

[antischnulz]

Hi together, 
I wonder how to maintain expression pedal state Exp1/Exp2 and FS5 state of SP1-L6H between Presets.

I set in Globals / Footswtiches
ToggleExp to FS5

Therefore when Exp1 is active and I press toe Exp2 will be adressed back and forth. Each time I press toe a FS5 will also be sent.
I use it with the HxStomp to use the toe to switch adevice on and the other off together at the same time  with the neat functionality that the pedal changes EXP1->EXP2 I can control 2 continous parameters together nicely .... until I switch presets then my problem starts! let me explain!

For instance:
Preset A: 
Volume Positon mapped to Exp1

Wah Positon mapped to Exp2
Bypass Assign both FS 5
Initially Wah is bypassed
 

Preset B (Same as A): 
Volume Positon mapped to Exp1

Wah Positon mapped to Exp2

Bypass Assign both FS 5
Bypass Assign FS 5
Initially Wah is bypassed

1) On Preset A I press Toe and Volume is bypassed, wah goes on
- Wah position is controlled by Exp2 
2) I change preset to B
3) PROBLEM: The system recalls that Exp2 is active but on Preset B is Wah Bypassed and the Volume Pedal is Waiting for Exp1

4) If I press Toe I turn off Volume in Favor of WahWah but I also switch from Exp 2 back to Exp 1.. deadlock!!

Now I have to manually turn off the Wah and turn on the Volumen Pedel and than I can use the smart switching between Exp1 and Exp 2 again but only as long as I stay in the preset. If I got to next preset the described problem persist.

I can not imagine that this is expected behavior. I need something like a reset of the Exp1/Exp2 switch state If I enter a preset or maybe you have an Idea how to do ? Help much appreciated!

Why not use both wah and volume with EXP 1 only and toggle both bypass states with FS5 (FS5 Function to Stomp5 instead of TogglEXP)?

Seems the more straight forward solution to me at least.

@Schmalle Thank you! I totally didn't see the obvious haha XD nice!

Then I guess a good usecase for switching back/forth EXP1/2 would be not to map FS5 to a bypass and just use the pedal ( whichever is the current one eg EXP1 od 2) to modulate. FS5 is just busy with switching with TogglEXP. Than one would have to find a way to activate the effect unit which is modulated by EXP1 od 2 respectivly.. maybe turn it on when the EXP-value is above 0 and turn it off wenn back to zero to. 

But this is another plan, thanks for the inspiration :-)

If you do this, how do you activate Exp2?

You don't. You use Exp1 exclusively. Keep in mind that you only switch between wah and volume when volume is full (toe down).
