    YES!! I recently graduated from a GIANT PEDALBOARD to a very small board with only HX STOMP + CloudBurst (connected to HX STOMP effects loop) + a Vertex Boost (which I keep last in the signal chain to clean boost whenever I need it). I'm also using 2 footswitch extension (via TRS cable). This whole setup fits in my backpack, and it sounds great.

    • @jamesmc1600
      @jamesmc1600 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’m putting this together now without the boost. Just the stomp and cloudburst. Do you use the midi to control the cloudburst? Or just turn the knobs?

    HX Stomp XL is my all in one rig now. Ive had a big pedalboard, a Helix floor, LT, HX Stomp + pedals....Stomp XL is the goldilocks for me. 4 Snapshots instead of 3, dedicated tap tempo/tuner, enough buttons for every setting, all in one and no need for a power supply or patch cables that can fail.

      @user-tf4tv9bj4f The Floor and even the LT are quite large, making them much more difficult to tote around. Stomp XL and Stomp fit in a gig bag, backpack, or messenger-style bag. Less is more, sometimes.

    For simplicity and flexibility, a stomp and a Morningstar mc6 gives me more sounds and options than I could ever need. Preset/snap/stomp switching, tap tempo, and even looper control. Might be too tweaky for many people, but it’s perfect for the size.

    I've used that exact rig for live shows for the past 3 years. I set my HX Stomp up in Snapshot mode and use the 2 additional switches for scrolling to next or previous presets. The 3 stomp footswitches select 3 different snapshot options (usually Clean, Crunch, Solo). Personally, I'd like to have the capability to have a expression pedal as well as the Boss F5-6.

    @tribedescribe 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This is exactly what I did with my Hx stomp last month! I love it and it's so flexible. I set up mine slightly differently so I don't lose a block with the fx loop send. At the end of my chain I split the amp off to the right and the direct left signal goes to my amp. Ive always been a pedal guy into a clean platform amp so this set up is very comfortable for me. I love how you set up the different levels and gain staging with snapshots. I always have to have a clean boost so I put a (stereo) gain block before the outputs and use the 3 snapshots for clean dirty and lead. Then I use the snapshots to adjust the amount of clean gain boost needed to take a solo within each snapshot. (or turn the lead snap into a rhythm)

    4:44 You can move amp+cab to "send" line and ditch that volume block, inverting your amp/no amp logic.
    Additionally you can turn phones output into another send in global settings to use it as an output for the "front of the house" situation

    Great solution, but I would prefer a solution with redundancy. Using the HX Stomp with a Friedman IRX, IRD, or Tonex One, you have an emergency backup to finish the gig should something fail. Also, spare power supplies are a must.

    This is actually why I bought one of these. I do work with a band that runs in ear monitors, but I pull one halfway out so I can hear my amp. I hate the sound of only in ears, but I understand that's what the sound guy wants. I do have the HX Stomp and an AB switch that fits right on top of the HX stomp. I was planning on running mine the same way as I have a Seymour Duncan Powerstage and a closed back Fender Hot Rod Deluxe Cab loaded with a Celestion Creamback that I'm dying to start using all together. This will help me ditch a lot of stage gear.

    Yep. HX Stomp and AB Pedal is also what I use. I made my own passive AB Pedal and use it to switch Snapshots. The only thing I miss is a Volume/Controller Pedal that I could use as a Wah, and to control Preset Parameters on the HX Stomp.
    Maybe there's a way to put a Volume/Controller in the Send/Return loop to do that. But, I so rarely feel the need for it, that I haven't tested that as a solution. I wish Line 6 would do a Firmware Update to make the Send/Return user assignable so I could just plug a Volume/Controller in there.

As much as we guitar players love a sauntering meander down a side track or two (hell, a lot of us live down those side tracks permanently 😂) the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, and this kind of set up is the epitome of that approach. I look forward to hearing how you get on with it.

I use an amp for my electric and an IR out the FX send to the board for my acoustic. Us ingthe FX send to the board gives me tons of options. I have different patches on the morningstar for electric and acoustic with FX as needed for each going to the amp or the board. With a dozen or so morningstar patches It's ready for anything I want without any last minute changes.

    I've been doing the same kind of portable hybrid set for a while, but I think in a more versatile way.
    I'm using an HX Stomp XL, so I don't need the external extra footswitches (in fact, with the XL I get 3 more footswiches that are also color coded and touch sensitive instead of just 2 regular ones).
    Also, with the XL I get the benefit of having 4 snapshots instead of just 3.
    And, since I don't have to use any external footswitch, I can use that port to plug in an expression pedal. So wah and those volume/reverb/delay swells are pretty easy to do when needed.
    The only other pedal I use besides the HXSXL is a Digitech Drop, for those rare songs that require tuning everything down a couple of steps.
    The HXSXL and the Drop are powered by individually dedicated power banks, and both can be plugged to regular wall wart adapters while still running, if necessary.
    Just the perfect fly rig.
    The only thing better than this would be a FM9, but it would be much bigger, heavier and more expensive. And it would require spending some valuable time learning about it's features and interface, which is much less user friendly than the Helix stuff.

      I also need to drop a pitch sometime so there is no option in the hx stomp to drop it with an expression pedal? And that is why the digitech drop is needed!?…

    Alt #3...but then again I'm a tad prejudice...they were a former employer of mine in the 70's. Really, no one makes better signal processing gear !

    It would be annoying having the footswitch light not being lit for on and off for off

    Just take the Helix and keep an HX Stomp and your extra Boss foot switch in the car.

    I tried this for a while. It’s great until you need to turn down reverb / delay etc in a bigger room, or want to turn off individual effects etc

      Why? This is perfectly doable with the HX Stomp.

    Don't you own a Stomp XL, and wouldn't that be even more convenient than this setup? Am I missing something obvious?

    Hx stomp, amps, hx stomp amps, amazing new pedal, hx stomp, random video on hx stomp, “we need to talk about ‘insert pedal’”…. Sheesh just a lot of noise and static about nothing but I’m sure you help sell a lot of these pedals for the manufacturers. You are a very good player though.
