Do you use snapshots? How do you like to use them?

Snapshots can literally change almost Every Parameter on the Amps & Pedals. It is sooo helpful / useful. Really amazing feature

I have several presets for different types of music; within each I use snapshots to provide different sounds, typically clean, rhythm 1, rhythm 2, lead 1; some have lead 2, but I rarely go above four snapshots, and at most 6. not too different from what you described here; great to see others doing similar things, tells me I may not be as crazy as I think. 😁

Hope you are feeling better. New Stomp XL user here, love it but just as confused lol. I like Snapshots alot, so thank you for sharing your wisdom!

I'm feeling A LOT better now thanks! I haven't tried the Stomp XL yet. I wonder if I would have chosen it over the standard Stomp when I bought mine. Great, compact piece of gear though. I plan to do some videos on the (standard) HX Stomp by the way. Hope you find them useful.

Great video. How do you get it so you could have snapshots for clean, crunch and dirty channels, and then also pedals that stay on regardless of what the snapshot is? Identical to if you were to change channels on a normal amp and then have your pedals manually operated
@ProFunctionist2 жыл бұрын
Hey. Thanks for the comment! As far as I know, I don't think you can have the pedals work independently of the snapshots. I seem to remember that's how it used to be but an eventual firmware update made the pedals snapshot specific. May a 'Helix historian' can correct me if I'm wrong. And as far as I know, you cannot configure the pedals to work independently of the snapshots either. (If anyone reading this knows differently I am happy to be corrected as I can definitely see the benefits of having the pedals set up this way). I hope this helps in some small way. Thanks again!

RTFM 😉: Manual 3.0 page 45: Snapshot Block Bypass On/Off There may be situations where you don’t want snapshots to control a particular block’s bypass state; that is, you’d prefer to turn it on and off manually. For example, you may want manual control of a Boost block at any time without worrying whether a particular snapshot might turn it on or off. 1. Within the Home screen, select a processing block within the signal flow and press ACTION. 2. Turn Knob 5 (Snapshot Bypass) to set the behavior for the block. By default, all blocks are set to “On” to automatically control their bypass states via snapshots. Change to “Off” to disable snapshot control of the selected block’s bypass state.

Hey. Can you do this with the LT version as well? As in changing amps in a bank
@mslenthall2 жыл бұрын
BTW it uses less DSP if you put each amp on a different signal path, rather than 2 on the same one.
@ProFunctionist2 жыл бұрын
That is true! Also depends how you want to do your set up. I think I generally like to put amps on the top row and post-amp/preamp FX on the bottom row, but I've had to do both ways at different times. Thanks for the tip. Very useful for Helix users to know!

Add a 3-5 db volume block and a delay block to stomp together, and you might break leads on both clean, dirty etc.

Thank you very much! Can you match the levels too within the different snapshots? It seems to me (but maybe my ears are deceiving me) snapshot 3 (push) and Dirty sounds much louder than snapshot clean. Just wondering...
@ProFunctionist3 жыл бұрын
Yes, you can match the levels with each snapshot. In fact, I have just got back from a gig where I was doing that a lot during the gig. It was a different band and I was using different guitars (and an EQ pedal before the Helix to match the input levels) so had to do a lot of tweaking to sit right with the set up this band had plus their choice of songs. It's become an extremely useful feature in the last few gigs I've had.
