jstaines33 Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Hey All! Using the Helix floor, I'm trying to find a way to essentially switch between stomp mode and a "command" mode to send CC toggle messages to an external looper. The command center does this perfectly, however I want to use all the switches to send various midi messages and then switch back to stomp mode for effects. Is there any way to do this? Thanks!

If you mean within a preset, switch to a mode where the footswitches ONLY send MIDI, no. You COULD assign unused snapshots to send a specific set of MIDI commands using the ICs (instant commands) without changing anything in the active preset.

jstaines33 Posted December 7, 2023 Author Share Posted December 7, 2023 Thanks for the responses! I figured out a way that works. I assigned the last available foot switch in Stomp box using command center to switch to another preset that is all midi commands and then in that preset assigned that same switch to return to my Stomp box preset. Sadly I'm using 2 paths so there is an audio cut out. So I had to put the looper last in the chain and not have it return back into Helix. So the looper can be looping and I can switch the preset to my midi commands and not have anything cut out. Figured I would respond with my solution in case it helps anyone!

PaulTBaker Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 interesting.... I am assuming (yeah, I know) that both presets are the same except for the FS assignments. again assuming you have clean, crunch, lead setups in the preset. If you are in lead mode and switch to your new preset, you will not be in lead mode there, unless you saved it like that. How are you compensating for that?
