Is the FX8 capable of doing the following within a patch (seamlessly)
Say I have a Rhythm tone - amp on Rhythm channel, little bit of delay etc etc
Solo time comes, I just want to hit one switch which changes amp channel and change up my delay.
Solo finishes, just hit the same switch again and back to previous Rhythm sound.
I used to do something similar with the G system where I had a footswitch assigned to a specific patch which switched amp etc.
Can the FX8 do this with the F1-F3 switches?
and yes I am seriously thinking of going FX8 and cancelling my Helix pre-order (pissed off with waiting/lack of info)

So effectively you set your fx types and X/Y parameters and relays within a preset and then change states of those using scenes.
8 fx blocks per preset? With X/Y this gives you 2 different flavours per block so essentially 16 sounds in a preset? Am I right here?

Helped make my mind up for certain!!
I'm never ever going to use modelling if I'm honest, I just need a control centre for a valve amp rig, ok, the whole nice to have feature is something to think about but in reality I'm a gigging player with an amp behind me and always will be
@John_P what made you change to AX8 is it just the modelling that you have a need for outside gigging?

Amp modelling is wasted on me, good to know im not the only one who's thought twice about the Helix.
How would you use 4 expression pedals?
Also is there anyway of using an Ernie Ball volume pedal as an expression pedal?
Not sure the Ax8 has the hum cancelling technology for 4cm. II can't believe I am saying this being a valve total fanboy. I have ordered AX8. Will use for modelling though on small stages

How/where did you order your ax8? Can't see it on G66 site....
