Helix Stadium Floor - incrementing parameters values in multiple snapshots ?

Hello All !!

I’ve had the Helix Stadium Floor for a few days now (and so far it’s really outstanding). I’d like to know if it’s possible to adjust parameters in the same way across multiple snapshots at once — incrementing them equally even if they don’t start from the same value.

For example: let’s say I have two snapshots with amps where the “Drive” value is set to 3 on one and 5.5 on the other. And I want to increase that value by two points for each of these snapshots. That would give: snapshot 1 with Drive at 5, and snapshot 2 with Drive at 7.5.

How can I do that? For two values, it’s manageable to do it manually for each snapshot. But for, say, 8 snapshots? In the context of balancing before a concert, or rehearsing with the full band, it seems much more complicated…
 

Have a nice day !

You could assign the Drive parameter to an expression pedal rather than the Snapshot controller but it would be difficult to repeatedly achieve the exact same specific value, e.g. 5 rather than 4.8, on each sweep.

For the "level/gain" purpose it seems that some possible "trick" is to add a gain/volume block at the end of the patch. To bypass it on every "distortion snapshots" for example. And to keep it active on every other snapshots where we want to add or lower the gain/volume.

But this will only work for this particular parameters. It won't word for, let say, the feedback of a delay, or something like that.

But doesn’t this ‘trick’ also require you to visit every Snapshot to set the active/bypass state for the additional gain/vol block? I thought that’s what you are trying to avoid. If you’re going to visit every block then go with your initial desire to use the amp Drive parameter.

 

Also, a gain/vol block at the end of the chain will not affect the tone as the Drive parameter will. I guess now I’m just confused about your intentions.

The aim of the 'trick' was to put a gain/volume block at the end of the patch. Then to bypass it on the snapshots where we doesn't want any of its added volume (let say the "clean amp" snapshots) and to activate it on the other (let say, the "distorded amps snapshots"). Then when we put some gain on one snapshot it will do the same on the other ones where the block is not bypassed. 

But it's a very limited solution as it doesn't word for parameters like "feedback" or "mix volume" of modulation pedals. 

And the "drive parameter" was only for the example. I was looking for a trick that can work with every parameters.
