Helix \ Toggle between Snapshot and Stomp?

Recommended Posts

The Helix Owner's Manual for version 3.80 states on page 71 that the Mode switch can be configured to toggle between Stomp and Snapshot modes by selecting Global Settings > Footswitches > Snapshot Mode Switches and setting it to Toggle.

 

However, the only options found there are Auto Return and Manual Return.

 

This can be done with HX Stomp XL, although I didn't find the procedure or this "Toggle" setting documented in its manual.

 

Is there a way to toggle between Snapshots and Stomp Mode with the press of a single Helix footswitch?

 

Thank you

You are correct, there is no "TOGGLE" setting. AUTO and MANUAL just determine what happens when you're in ACTUAL Snapshot Mode (accessed by pressing the UP/DOWN switches concurrently) - RETURN to PREVIOUS (Stomp or Preset) Mode immediately upon SS selection or remain in SS Mode until the CANCEL (MODE) switch is pressed again.

 

To accomplish what you want, set "Preset Mode Switches" to "8 SNAPSHOTS". This effectively changes PRESET Mode to SNAPSHOT Mode.

In that setting, to get to the actual PRESET MODE you first press the MODE switch to go from STOMP to 8 SNAPSHOTS, then press the UP or DOWN switches to enter PRESET MODE. IOW - the reverse of the default behavior.
