ridgwayt Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 I'm a complete noob to midi and I'm completely lost. I'd like to sync my hx effects with my hx stomp in a way that I feel should be relatively straight forward but I haven't been able to find any info about this kind of configuration. Any guidance would be amazing! Guitar>>> Hx Stomp>>> Hx Effects>>> Tube Amp (all in series with all of the fx loops doing other things.) Because I'm running the two in series, I have quite a bit of dsp to make some pretty complex signal paths. I'd like the two devices to store coordinating preset names and numbers, each device providing their own half of the signal path for any said preset, while being recalled by the HX Effects. Ex. "Preset 001" on Stomp- Comp, Distortion, EQ, Noise Gate & "Preset 001" on Effects- Modulation, Delays, Reverbs I'd Like the Stomp's switches to do the following: 1) Presets Up (of both devices) 2) Presets Down (of both devices) 3) Tap/Tuner The HX Effects' switches select presets and then controls those snapshots, along with maybe some other controls. I hope that makes sense and is possible. Any advice out there, please? . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enjalt Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 It is possible, but you'll have to use command center on Every preset. Start to familiarise with the manual (See MIDI section..), to master your HX products. Keep in mind anyway that more you'll have preset , more the preparation will be heavy Why not just sell your HX Stomp and HX effects and change them for a Full Helix or LT? Your setup will be far easier 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridgwayt Posted March 3 Author Share Posted March 3 Thank you for the reply. I knew that one was coming. Since I already owned the Effects and loved it, it made sense for me to add the stomp, which seemed to be a popular addition by others in this group. Not to mention I have several other analog pedals on my board that I consider irreplaceable. Ultimately, you are probably right if it's going to require that much preparation. I will deep dive into the manual and study up on midi and command center. Thanks again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you really want to keep the stomp + Effect you can add a midi controller (for example a Morningstar product) since the HX products can't assign multiple functions on one switch via command center. That's maybe the best solution if you absolutely want to keep the 2 devices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
