Finally!!! A video that explains how snapshots work in a simple way! 6 weeks I’ve had my Helix and this is the first video that has taught me how to use the function without a PC. Thank you 👍
Thank you. Really glad it helped.
Thanks for the clear explanation of Snapshot use and editing! I was pretty much lost til I saw this.
You're welcome. Glad it helped.
First off thank you. Had my HXFX for about 9 months. So far only played the presets and tinkered with a few of my own patches. This 8 min video has opened my to a whole new world of tinkering and really well explained.
Thank you. Glad it helped. :-)
Clarity, pleasant pacing and clutter free. Great tutorial, cheers and greetings from the Netherlands!
Thank you. Cheers and greetings to you too.
Thanks for this! .......great help for new user 👍👍👍
Thanks for the explanations! FYI there’s a shortcut for setting parameters for the snapshot. According to the manual, if you press in on the knob while turning it, it will assign it to the snapshot - you will see the little vertical bar appear on the parameter setting to verify this.
Thanks for the info!
This video helped me a lot in organising all my presets and snapshots to my needs! Thanks!!!! I recommend using the HX software for changing the names of the snapshots, though, when you have acces to it!
Thanks, good concise info. Always avoided snapshots but I can see them being very useful.
You're welcome! I was exactly the same.
Well done. Excellent explanation. Very helpful. Thanks!
This was so helpful and easy to understand. Thank you so much!
I love you. I've been looking for something this clear for over a year.
Cheers 😁
An absolutely brilliant video. So well explained.
Thanks so much, I'm glad it was helpful.
Best explanations on TH-cam. I come to these videos more than the manual 😊
That's really great to hear. Thank you.
Just got my HX FX a few days ago. This is so helpful!
Really glad that it helped. Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you so much. Trying to work this out has been driving me crazy. If you're ever in Melbourne Australia I owe you a beer or two, or whatever your tipple is.
Thanks to you I finally learned how to set up a snapshop! :-)
Many thank you's! :-)
Happy to have helped 😀
Yes! Thank You. Exactly what I was looking for!
You're welcome. :-)
Thanks so much for this. Snapshot latching mode is exactly what I was looking for. Head now unfried :-)
You're welcome. Glad it helped.
Great video!
Can I ask you a question? Is possible to change midi Channel by changing Snapshot? Example: Snapshot 1 a clean sound fron a Tonex and Snapshot 2 recall another Tonex preset..
Good and informative thanks
Super helpful video. Thanks for doing this 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼.
Glad it was useful!
Helped me a lot! Thanks!!!
Glad it helped! :-)

No problem. Glad it helped.
Thanks man…really big help!

Thanks a lot !
Awesome thanks for the help greatly appreciated
You're welcome. :-)
This Save my life. Mister.
Great job
Thank you. :-)
Thank you very much for help
No problem at all. :-)
Excellent tutorial thank you ! Do you think it’s possible to assign a amp channel change from overdrive to clean in a snapshot?
Yes. I believe you should be able to do this. Unfortunately I don't have a channel switching amp to verify this, but you can change midi channels using snapshots so you should be able to use the same process to change channels on an amp. See my video on using MIDI for the steps. You will need to use the "Ext Amp" command instead of "BankPC". Hope this helps.
unbelievable that switch problem i have as well (5.43-.5.46)
Not even sure what a snapshot is,poster doesn't define the feature so I'm guessing.I think I have an idea.Wondering - is there any way to to operate say momentary delay with other parameter adjustments (FE delay with flanger both in momentary mode) ?Thanks
How do I turn off snapshots? I just want to click mode then preset and go right into my preset. Right now I have to click mode , preset, exit.
Don't know why Line 6 can't explain it this well!! Thanks.
I tried to edit my snapshots in HX Edit and even after assigning controller to Snapshot it's still not retaining my parameter edits. Can't seem to find any help to fix this - any advice? At least I know how to do it on the HX Effects now. Thanks
I've not tried it in HX Edit unfortunately. Sorry.
same problem here. my snapshots are all saved with the same change so I end up with 4 snapshots all the same. using HX EDIT.
So what exactly are the idea of a snap shot? I just got one of these HX effects
They allow you to change multiple parameters in a rig. Should be clear if you watch the whole video. HTH.
I didn't see an explanation for how to activate and change snapshots during play.
It’s 2024. I’m selling off my pedals and tube amps. Age catching up and no gigs for me as playing at home with my loved ones. Will this unit with the JC40 serves its purpose for noodling with the loved ones? Been watching videos of how great it sounds and simple to use.
It should do. I've not tried one through a JC40, but if that takes pedals well, you should be fine 🙂
@@thehont8648 great! This is good news. 🤘
My question is if you change the parameters in the preset alone not the snapshots, will the snapshots recognize this or will I have to redo them?
I think you will have to redo, but try it and see.
Thank you man!!!!
Excellent tutorial! Is it possible to assign a change amp channel within the parameters of a snapshot? For example setting up Snapshots 4 to be able change
Yes
What are snapshots in the first place??
Are snapshots what they used to call scenes?
I believe so.
I must be missing something - what IS a snapshot?
Wow... Having to assign a controller to save a setting is a really convoluted method... Not sure who programmed it to be that way, but WTH!
*Can you change the order of effects blocks per snap shot???
See other comment on how to do this more easily. And no.
@@thehont8648 Got it. Press knob and hold while turning to assign to snapshot. 3 vertical lines will appear next to parameter to verify. 👍🏻👍🏻
I am unable to edit the snapshots when I press the mode button it sends me back to the preset. Any idea on what I can do?
Hi. Check that you have the latest firmware (available from Line 6's website). If you do then it should work exactly as per the video. HTH.
I don't give a damn about line 6 products.
OMG hold on a second, The HX has an FM4.
I better buy it or Buckethead will murder me.
Excellent tutorial, these pedals are sometimes too deep with menus.
Blimey, it's a lot going on on, I just want a simple bank of snapshots that come up as the default. I'd also much rather have six banks and lose the up/down buttons. I just want clean, clean with effects, crunch, drive, solo and one to spare then... Don't want to switch banks around.
