What would be nice would be a "replicate" or "ripple" option that lets you make a change to the favourite and then press a button to ripple that throughout all your presets on the unit that use it.
I can't figure out how to do what you suggested with the way I have it set up.
I use the favourite as part of a snapshot.
Then in preset mode I use the command center to assign the snapshot to a footswitch.
I can't see any way to then go into individual effects except in hx edit.
I've got a whole bunch of presets to edit and don't really want to take my laptop to rehearsal. This is all about balancing volumes so it needs to be done in a band context.
I'm a little closer now but I haven't figured out how to overwrite the favorite from the signal flow screen yet.
Personally having owned a gtcore, gt1000 hx FX and stomp, I prefer the boss to line 6 for sounds.
I’ve had the hx stomp and now have the fx
i have a gt1 on my desk for quiet practice( which I believe is the same sounds as the gt1000)
to me there is no contest and the helix family sounds so much better.
the boss is a great unit for practice but I don’t think I’d want to use it live.
something for everyone out there I guess.
The GT1000 sounds are comparable to the Line 6 helix range. But it does have the favourites type thing you are mentioning.
anyway, it would be a nice to have features and it’s good that the gt1000 has it but it’s not enough to make me change my whole platform for.
Who'd be a developer, eh?
And I wanted it recently when I wanted to update about 30 presets. Who knows when I would use it again
It's also highlighted that I don't have things organized very well at the moment.
I'm considering an HXFX to use 4 cable method with an amp without reverb. Is there a way for me to have the amp's preamp and a reverb constantly on, but not assigned to a footswitch? I'm never going to want to turn off the preamp, and want a set-and-forget verb in loop. Can I do this without wasting a footswitch?
No problem doing this. The HX FX doesn't have to assign a footswitch to an effect block automatically. It's just most of us (me) let it do so because we're too lazy to stop it. Once you have the effects blocks you want in your preset, you can go to Command Center and clear the ones assigned to your FX Loop and Reverb blocks (or use HX Edit). Make sure those effects blocks are on before you save the preset, mind...
Remember as well that you can have multiple effects on a single footswitch.
As TheBigDipper hinted at, command center is very powerful. I've only recently discovered it. You can assign snapshots to footswitches too in stomp mode.
I have 3 snapshots set up , clean , crunch and lead which are all assigned to switches.
Then the other 3 are used as normal to switch fx on and off. Gives me great flexibility.
2am is a pretty normal time for me to be up doing stuff... probably not healthy, but normal!
Every time I load an HX FX preset or snapshot I'm sending a single PC command to select the AMP1 channel+boost on/off+reverb on/off.
