HX effects volume control

[FelixKrohn]

Hey there, I need some volume control with the HX effects but just can't manage to get it to work.

 

We have a couple of songs where I switch between finger play and slap. Slapping is much louder, so I want to have a volume control in my chai that I could make use of. So I thought of inserting a volume switch in my bank that I can switch during play. However, when inserting a volume switch in HX Edit, it doesn't show up in my HX effects. Next thought was going with Snapshots, but whatever I program in my 2nd snapshot for the respective preset just mirrors to the first one. Means: When inserting a volume to the 2nd snapshot, it also appears in the first one.

 

Can anyone help me getting a workaround?

Any setting you want to change for a Snapshot needs to be 'activated'.

In HX Edit, with the Helix, you'd right click that setting and click Snapshot in the drop down menu. Then go to your (2nd) Snapshot and adjust that parameter.

Tip of the day: Read the manual. This stuff is in there.

By "volume switch" you mean Volume Pedal block? That should work.

A Gain block also does the job. 

You can also controller assign a footswitch to control the Output block's Level parameter.

You don't need snapshots for this.
