HX Effects expression pedal assignment min/max values issue

[jolach]

Hi, on the HXFX when I want expression control and assign a parameter, say "Time", in a digital delay, I press "Learn" and the Expression1 pedal is assigned to "Time" with the values 0-8000 miliseconds. Because I don't want the whole range, I then have to menu dive and change the min (heel) value to 300 and the Max (toe) value to 700. This takes a LOT of turning on dials. This bugs me no end and is a flow killer, when on the M9 the same excercise could be accomplished in 3 seconds, using the same expression pedals.

 

Am I overlooking something? Could'nt find it in the manual.

 

I have Expression pedal 2 assigned to volume only, on the looper. 

 

Thanks in advance for your inputs!

 

HXFX firmware 2,5

Well, first of all if you are on 2.5, you are around 5 years behind... The experience has been vastly improved with the encoders acting faster if you give it a spin.  Also, you can do this a lot easier in HX Edit.

Hi,

 

Update your firmware to the latest version and use Hx Edit to speed up the editing process.

 

Hope this helps/makes sense.

Thanks guys, this was helpful, firmware update helped the encoder spin speed. It didn't simplify expression pedal assignment though.

 

When I told the user of the pedal (previous M9 user) "use a computer" she laughed and replied, I did'nt buy iRig, did I?

use HX Edit.  It takes seconds to assign an EXP pedal.

Hi, again.

 

Are we actually giving you answers to relay to a third party? 
 

I also re-read your initial post where you mentioned using the Exp pedal to edit on the M9.

 

Hmm… is this what you mean?

 

 

You could also tell your friend - “No, she didn’t buy an iRig”, but it’s a big help and a lot quicker to modify stuff with HX Edit.

 

Also - see page 13 of the HX Effects 3.0 Owner’s Manual > Hands-Free Editing (Pedal Edit)

 

Hope this helps/makes sense.
