As an interesting thought, I've seen that DV Mark do a 50 watt head which is tiny and can be had for around £200. Potential to use it as a power amp like the SD170
I had never put the HX through the DV Mark before but it sounded fantastic. Every bit as good as the SD170, maybe slightly better in fact as it possibly reacted more ‘amp like’ to the two drive pedals.
Anyway the bottom line is that yes the DV Mark works great when used the same way as the SD170 and perhaps slightly better with a few considerations as above.
I play guitar and take photos of stuff. I also like beans on toast.
I'm thinking of getting into a HX Stomp; is there anywhere I can hear what each effect sounds like? Replacing a Bitquest (which I love the sounds of) and would like to compare before buying if possible.
Also interested to know if theres any plans for improved polyphonic pitch shifting on the Helix; I understand its a weak point.
AAAND I've heard the Stomp will be getting 8 blocks in version 3.0...?

As far as pitch shifting goes, there simply is no polyphonic at the moment. We are working on it but it does take time. The team we have on that side is basically one of the best in the industry and you will have most likely had or at least lusted after some of the stuff they have done in the past.
Trying out the effects? Sure. Just download the free trial of Helix Native. It is Helix so what you hear there is what you will hear out of the box on any HX family product.

Definitely get Native, try it out, and see what you think.
I want to build a board I'll not change again, the Stomp can get me Amp-free for home practice and no-amp wedding gigs, and gives me all the FX when going into my amp. Thats the plan anyway. Would be nice to not have to buy an EHX Pitch Fork etc if I don't need to.
Planned board is here if you fancy a look - whaddya reckon? https://i.imgur.com/HKzSweC.png
(The Lillian and Supa Puss are place holders - I actually own a Small Stone and InLimbo IIc)
Whilst I'm here - how's the tuner now? I've heard from Jon Cordy on here that the looper isn't really sufficient, so elected to keep the Ditto and oust the Polytune.

DSP usually runs out before filling 6 blocks for me so 8 blocks isn't a massive issue!
Liking the look of that pedalboard and it makes me think about maybe building one again in the future.
