I use an AMT EX50 as expression pedal for my HX Stomp, which is super cool since it has 2 outputs: TRS and TS! When I use the HX Stomp alone (for small travel setups) I use the EX50 on the TS out to the ring input, and on the tip I have an aux footswitch for tap tempo/tuner. The HX is used in Stomp mode, and on FS3 thanks the Command Center I programmed it to trigger Next Snapshot when Holding the FS. So I have all the control I need without external midi control. In my normal board instead I use HX with a mini dual aux footswitch to scroll snapshots and tuner/tap. In this board I'm using it together with a Strymon Timeline, which has a expression pedal connected to it. Here there's a Midi cable from Timeline to HX. When I move the exp pedal connected to the Timeline, its movement is tracked via midi CC, so I can use the same exp pedal also to control parameters on the HX via midi. HX is amazing!

Another great video Scott. I have an m-audio expression pedal, which I modifed to include a toe switch. The toe switch acts as FS4 and the exp pedal is Exp1. This allows me to treat the expression like a real wah wah - push down to enable, push down to disable.

Toggle Expression - That can be useful so you could assign volume to exp1 and a wah to exp2 if you had an expression pedal plugged in this would either be a volume pedal or wah according to which you had selected. So many more options as the helix lets you control lots of things with expression pedals it could be gain, mix, delay times or even pitch shift like the digitech whammy. I think you can even set multiple parameters and controls so you could increase reverb mix while reducing the gain on an overdrive. Then still be able to hit that toggle expression switch and then you're back to having a volume pedal

I'm sure someone's said this by now, but the footswitch to switch between EXP1 and EXP2 is good if you use just a one-button footswitch (tip for example) and an expression pedal (ring)... then you can use that button to tell the Stomp which exp function to target. In much the same way that that Mission L6 expression pedal works.

Nice to have an affiliate link to a TRS single switch. BTW from the video I was not sure you could do the TRS 1-switch and 1-exp approach but as suspected that is an approach too. Might go that route for simplicity and fitting it all on my nano. 😂

Great video! I need to look at Morningstar's options again. Seems like one of the best ways to add MIDI control to the Stomp. I use a DIY arduino based switcher, but it doesn't have scenes, so each switch only sends a single command. 6 switches send preset up and down, FS1 and 2, tap tempo, and tuner. I do use a Source Audio Hot Hand 3. I clipped off the ring, and mounted the transmitter to my violin. Normally I use it to kick up delay feedback by tilting my violin down to the floor, and I have a DVP4 mini to control mix on the effect loop, wah, or volume, depending on the preset.

I've used your videos to become more and more familiar with my hx stomp and really appreciate the great content! I wanted to share a small correction in this video. At about the 1:40 mark you mention needing to use TRS cable attached to the 2-button footswitch to use both buttons. I'm currently using a mission expression pedal (with toe switch) AND a 2-button foot switch all at the same time with a TRS -> Dual TS y-cable. My stomp sees and allows me to use both footswitches and expression1 and expression2 using this TRS -> Dual TS cable. So I just wanted to share that with you! Thanks again for all the great content on expanding the hx stomp!

Wait… really? How does that work if you have to assign how you want the external input to be assigned. You set it to either FS or EXP mode. You can’t use 4 (2 extra FS and 2 extra EXP). If I am incorrect on that, can you share what pedal and system you are using? To make sure I understand you correctly…. You are able to assign FS4, FS5, EXP 1 and EXP 2 all at the same time using the method that you are using? I’m still almost positive this cannot be done, but if I am incorrect, I will do an updated video. Thank you!

In 8:18 you mentioned that you used a Sonicake expression pedal with your HX Stomp with a TRS to 2 TS cables. One for the foot switch and another to the pedal. I bought the pedal and it didn’t work. When sweeping the values they were g going from 0 to 100 to 0 again. So the heel was 0 and toe was also 0. The reason is that the output jack for the sonicake pedal is expecting a TRS cable. What I did was to unscrew both output and input jacks, open the case from the bottom and lift the contact (for the output jack) that would touch the “sleeve” part of the TRS cable. Since we’re plugging a TS cable this change was needed. Maybe the hardware was different when you used it, Scott. Anyway, thank you for this great video. It helped me a lot.

Since using the stomp standalone at home but with an amp with my band, is made fs4 my "panic button". It switches the loop for the preamp off and activates a model. Just in case the amp goes down or whatever. Coming from digital I am not against the idea using the stomp just like that in live scenarios, but there may be situations where the pa might not be as powerful in super small clubs where you have to have stage volume or having a big stage and being able to have some stage volume just for feel.

First off your videos are super helpful!! Thank you so much! The TRS cable at 8:09…if you ran the cable OUT from the expression (wah/vol) and one into a Stomp and the other into an HX Effects, could you control parameters on each Line 6 unit with the single expression pedal?

If I’m understanding you correctly, I would try sending midi to the certain commands more than FS7 and 8. So if you want fs7 to turn on your chorus pedal, assign that via midi instead of by a footswitch command.

I'm thinking about getting one of the Disaster Area micro midi controllers. Before I get one, I was wondering is it possible to add a 4th snapshot to the midi controller? I would really love to have at least 1 more

You only get 3 snapshots with the hx stomp. I hope in a firmware update they allow 5 with a footswitch, but you currently only get 3

Have you looked into running a tone x pedal into the stomp for amp tones?

@@ScottUhlMusic I'm still holding out for Neural Amp Modeler to have a hardware device that can load captures for live use as I'm not a huge fan of Ik multimedia products but atm the Tone x is pretty tempting despite me not being a big fan of their software or products it does sound really good and is fairly affordable

So with Morningstar, you can have the looper with multiple buttons, and turn on and off reverbs delays gain etc….

I’m guessing this would work in the same way for an LT? 17:03 Sounds crazy but I feel I need more than 8 easy to access pedal bypass switches.

@@ScottUhlMusic I tried so hard,. Somehow i did it but not fornthe exp pedals. With "learn" it does nothing, and all without the software (have seen something on KZread but in the end is all good and confusing at the same time). 😔

Hi, is there something like a dual switcher on the market (with two foot switches) that would switch between different pedals (switch 1) and scroll trough presets with the other switch? This way you would only need 2 switches to change presets on (let’s say 3) DIFFERENT pedals that have a preset feature and a TRS connection.

Hx stomp only allows 2 total expression inputs, so you can use 1 button and 1 expression pedal in that situation. You’ll want a TRS 1/4” to 2 TS 1/4” splitter to connect to the stomp 👍

I've got a 2-button switch plugged into Exp 4 and 5 on my HX Stomp, and I use that to scroll up and down through my Snapshots. I've have an old Boss GT-6 that has 7 foot switches, and an Expression Pedal and I'd like to use it as a Controller for the Stomp. I did manage to get the Expression Pedal to control the volume on a Preset by linking MIDI to a Volume Block on the Stomp. I'd like to use the GT-6 foot switches to control other functions on the Stomp, like Bank Up, Bank Down, Tuner on/off, etc., but I haven't been able to get the Stomp to recognize/respond to the MIDI sent by the GT-6. I think I've got to use the "Learn" function, but I always get stuck at this point. I'm probably not doing something right. I usually give up at this point. I may have seen something in this video that might help. I can't find any videos that utilize a device like the GT-6 as a Controller as I've described. 🤷

You cannot get more than 2 extra controls with the EXP input on the stomp. You have to use midi in that case. Because the exp input only allows 2 extra controls which you assign in global. Midi has much much more

Ah gotcha, I was mixing it up with another thing. Does the GT6 send midi? I’ve found Roland/Boss stuff is very difficult with midi, but if it sends midi, you should be able to get that to work 👍 I do consulting if you need to set up a zoom call. Website link is in the description

@@ScottUhlMusic Yes, the Boss GT-6 does send MIDI, and I was able to get it's Expression Pedal to control the Volume on an HX Stomp Preset. From your video, it looks like the easiest way to get the Stomp to recognize the GT-6 MIDI is to first turn on/access that feature/mode in the Stomp, for instance the Tuner. Then turn on "Learn" on the Stomp, then press the button/foot switch on the GT-6 I want to use to turn on the Tuner on the Stomp. Does that sound right?

Hi I know this is an older video, but I hope you see this question. I have a Cymatic UTrack (and an LP16). Both can be controlled via footswitch to start / stop. Do you think there would be a way that I could use the MC8 to control both the HX Stomp AND the Utrack so that I can start songs from the Utrack Playlist? I *could* just have a separate footswitch for the Utrack, but it would be nice to have less stuff on the floor if I could condense that function into the MC8 and still use the other 6 switches on the HX Stomp. Thanks in advance!

Yeah you definitely can do that. Use different midi channels for each device you want to control and get some sort of midi splitter. I like this one personally: kzread.info/dash/bejne/m4uEtrt7oZO8lKQ.htmlsi=I3W_U2BEsm2kXHfa

Ugh, why did Line 6 need to make the DSP bypass block the entire screen? I want the use the stomp as a simple multi fx so I would be bypassing it all the time. Not seeing which patch I left it on during a gig would be hell.

Hi Scott. when I went to order the AMPERO - 2 BUTTON FOOTSWITCH it listed it as a "Momentary FS". when using the stomp does it change it to "latched" when set to Latched?

I haven’t used one so I’m not sure about how it works, but with the stomp you only get 2 extra expression inputs and they are either pedals or footswitches. So 5 total on the stomp unless you use midi
