BigDaveLaaad Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 Help a brother out! Been pulling what little remains of hair I have out today! Gear in question: blackstar amped 3 and line 6 hx effects. Desired goal: to be able to switch between channels on the amped 3 when engaging snapshots on the helix using midi. I've never delved into Midi before and there's not much information online either! At least not for this exact set up. I did find a video using the blu amp 1 with the same goal and it seemed really straight forward but it didn't work. I have my Midi cable going from the "out/thru" of the line 6 and Into the "in" of the blackstar. I've gone into my preset on the line 6, into the command center, set to BankPC, set midi channel to 1, and set prog to 38 (which is the number in the blackstar manual to recall the crunch channel preset) but nothing is happening I'm clearly missing something and hoping someone who knows what they're doing can help me out! Thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd2rk Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 BS has to be set to receive on Ch1. In Global Settings>MIDI, set MIDI PC TX to OFF (prevents the default PC# being sent); Snapshot CC Send to OFF (because IDK what CC#69 does in the BS). HXFX default snapshot (the one SAVED with the preset that loads on preset load) Instant Command1 (lightning bolt) is what you set to Bank/Prog 38.
