With the success of the phenomenally powerful Helix, it was only a matter of time before Line 6 put that same power to work in a unit focused on delivering top-tier modeled effects. Introducing the Line 6 HX Effects. Like Helix, HX Effects is able to take total control of your guitar rig, supplement your pedalboard, or anything in between. With over 100 HX-quality effects - many pulled from Line 6's already legendary stomps - you'll never run out of tones. And thanks to the HX audio engine, you're able to run up to nine effects simultaneously.

I love how he had to mention it was a custom shop stratocaster
Necessary when you spend $5k
I noticed that 😂
Best explanation/demo video I've seen of this product so far. Sweetwater rocks! 🤘🏻
Mitch! You’re the best! Such eloquently spoken and excellent product knowledge, you’re a delight to listen to which makes it much easier for me to get to know the product that you are featuring, and this particular product does look and sound amazing! Great job my friend!👍👍🙏😊
i just kept waiting for that wobbly table to collapse.
Mitch, your a absolute boss when it comes to presentation. Clear and concise everytime. Thanks for the review!
Every time i see a white Strat with a mini humbucker i just think of the EOB Model.
Amazing demo 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Mitch man, I always enjoy your presentations :) thank you very much!
Easily one of the best new multi-day units to be released in quite a long time
As good as FM9? Can this be used alone with just a guitar? Is it a complete modeler? How do you edit patches?
I love how line 6 leaves open spots for pedals in their stuff. This unit has openings for two pedals. The helix has 4 loops.
Half the size of helix doesn't help
Two items. There's an IR loader so 3rd party IR's can be brought into this box. Mitch - you're so good at this that these videos come off sounding overly scripted.
Mitch met you at Namm 2018... Thank you for an awesome video!!
👍
Great demo....nice and clear. Thanks!
i think i'm gonna need a couple of aleve for this one.
Excellent review. Excellent product. Line 6 is changing up the game.
Thank you for checking it out, Joshua! 👍
Thanks for the review!
Fantastic Review! Clear and Concise! I will get This HX Very Soon! Great! Cheers
Hey, thanks!
Pretty much an updated M9. Looks great!
I still use mine. I have two, one in the loop on my 5150/3 and another for my keyboards. Even just using them for delays and reverb it's a steal.
Nice demo I often wondered why line 6 didn't put out just an effects only type rig and this is the answer to that. I have the helix so I don't need this but if this would have come out before the helix, I might have bought it... For the guitarists out there addicted to their amplifiers, this would be a nice addition to their rigs...
Hi there! Are you aware of the M-Series of FX-Boards from Line 6? The M13 has been arround for years and is the predecessor of this unit. They even inculded a "legacy" groupe of FX in this Helix HX, which consists of the "old" effects from the M13 :)
Florian Ju I am aware of those but when they came out they we're a bit over my head and there weren't TH-cam demo tutorials like there are today...
Mitch, Total pro demo.
Fantastic work man
Sweetwater, how do you run two separate paths? Where one goes into one amp dry with an overdrive and the other amp gets the wet effects? I can't get it too work independently like you say in the video.
Hi! How did you record the sound un this Review? Did you send the HX signal to an amplifier (and did you mic that amp?) Or did you just connect the HX outputs to an audio interface? Thanks and great review
I bought one of these from Sweetwater and I love it!
Has anybody figured out how to save more than six effects at once? It's not in the manual.
Looking for an fx only device on a budget. Have the pod go but don't need all the amp/cab models. Going to get this
Very useful. Good video.
I have one of the Line 6 M13 effects boards.. Whats different about this multi unit? Also, Can I run certain effects in front of my amp and certain ones thru the loop?
yes
This is going to be popular.
I got a line 6 AXSYS212, can it be hooked up to it and used?
Hey is that a Custom Shop Strat Mitch is using?
Lol
This or TC Plethora x5 or other option in 2021? Would sit in the fx loop of Mesa Mk 5.
How can I use the impulse Responses??
Hello everyone, my HX Effects does not work with my Engl Sreammer 50. The TRS jack puts some extra voltage on the amplifier, the lead led always has a dim light even when the channel is off. The polarity of one button is right and the other is inverted. Changing from EXP to Amp in the preferences also does not solve the problem, however, using EXP we can change the polarity (strange).There is also an increase in the gain of the amplifier. Using a Boss FS-6 pedal works fine. Also with Behringer FCB1010. I reported the problem to Line6 who replied: "Hi, HX Effects ability to control external amp channel and/or reverb switching has been tested with many popular amps and heads. Unfortunately this does not guarantee compatibility with all products. Note that, depending on the circuitry of the channel switching jack in the guitar amp used, the EXT Amp function may not operate as expected. Best regards, Technical Support Line 6 Support Europe" This is a copy/paste from the manual. Therefore, you buy the equipment and if you are lucky it works with your amplifier.
yes put how do you reset to manufacture
That strat! 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤 This board is going to sell truckloads!
Sean L Fender Ed O’Brien signature Strat.
Most of the pedals I have today are stereo. So, do the 2 loops deal with that?
Awesome overview! You mentioned the 6 cable method for stereo amps... I'm super interested, but can't find any resources on how to set it up... Any help?
Just grab a FM9 if you can dude. You be happy. 6 cables is insanity. Do you even hear yourself?
Very nice!
Sweet!
Can both effect switches in each column be used simultaneously?
Hi, Shayne! When using the switches to access individual effects patches, any of the switches can be used simultaneously. Thanks for the question!

Hiya Mitch. Does this have the capability of creating patches on the computer like the line 6 pod hd500, and upload them to this board??? Thanks.
yes
Not yet. The editor is super basic right now (you can copy paste patches) and should be upgraded later this year.
Excellent!!! Love it.
👍🎶
Quick question, does the tap tempo global control the tempo of all of the (modulation/delay) effects parameters?
Hi, Chris! When you have a moment, please give us a call at (800) 222-4700 or email us at sales@sweetwater.com. We'd be glad to look into this for you. Thanks for the message!
Very cool device! Is there software available for the device , where I can edit the effects via my computer, like my Spider V Remote? Thank you.
Hi, Angel. Thank you for your interest! They do have the HX Edit software that works with the HX Effects. You can find it here:
line6.com/software/index.html
If you have any other questions on the HX Effects or other products in the Helix family, give us a call and we'd be happy to help!

It’s it good for beginners? Or is it too much because it looks very overwhelming to me but I also want all the affects it comes with.
Aidan Thomann perfect for beginners, half an hour with it and you will have it sorted
Hi, which one is for me?
I only want to practice bass at home with my fender rumble 40 and my headphones. I like the idea of everything in one pedal over having to buy a preamp DI, compressor, EQ, octaver, etc, etc.
Do I need amp and cab simulators?
Do I get the POD Go with only 4 pedals to choose from?
Do I get the HX FX with no Amps and cab sims and 6 pedals to choose from?
Do I get the HX Stomp with everything you need but only 3 switches to play with?
I need a little help and i cant get it from Line6.
Thanks
Hello, Mauricio! If you're just looking for a bunch of different effects to mess around with I'd get the HX Effects. Thanks for the interest!

Killer demo!
Not sure it's for me but it sounds wicked.
I've been using modeling since the Rockman, ADA-MP1, etc and I'm so done with menus.
I'm all tube and analog from this day forward.
Have you tried the FM9? Thoughts?
one day your phone will just be your rig, or your neuralink :/
How would this sound going straight to the board and run through the monitors without having an amp/cab simulation?
Hi, Mark. Thanks for your question! The short answer is, it depends. Amps/cabs/mics are all filters. When you add tubes, or tube emulation, there's some compression, as well. Without them, there's a lot more high and low frequency content, and you really have to rely on your hands to control dynamics. For a crystalline clean sound, it'd sound good without too much effort. For an edgy distortion/fuzz tone, again not too difficult. It's the mid gain, "warm"/"organic" breakup tones that require a lot of tone shaping with filters, EQ, compression and some ambiance You'll have a longer signal chain, but it's doable. An HXStomp might be a better bet if the one device is all you want to run through.
Please contact me direct if my response isn't clear or you have other questions.

Do these effects sound significantly better than the M-series ones? (M5, M9, M13)? If not, then this is just a re-packaging of those older units. with a new name. I'm hoping this is a significant step up in effect quality?
yes, there are over 70 brand new HX algorithms for drives, reverbs, delays, compressors, etc. 2.5 added all the m-series effects as well. Here's a comparison I made between my real klon and Helix's version: th-cam.com/video/JUVth9Ce10I/w-d-xo.html
Planning to buy, but can you tell me how to setup it on bias amp mini?
Hi, Driguez Ros. I'm not entirely certain what you mean by "set up." But whether it's simple connections, 4 cable method, or even something else, we can definitely help. Feel free to reach out!

Has it got a lot of updated effects or is it mainly the same they've been rehashing for years?
yes, there are over 70 brand new HX algorithms for drives, reverbs, delays, compressors, etc. 2.5 added all the m-series effects as well. Here's a comparison I made between my real klon and Helix's version: th-cam.com/video/JUVth9Ce10I/w-d-xo.html
Alex.Guitars Thank you
Can the effects be edited on a PC or iPad?
Hey, Jude! You can download the HX Edit software on Line 6's website and that will allow you to edit your presets on a Mac or PC, but not an iOS device. If I can help further feel free to call or email me. Thanks for the interest!

It has capacitive switches. Why is he pushing them down? It's making him out of breath.
Cabby Cabby capacitive for selecting and editing, pushing for bypass on/off.
Can this be used with a parallel FX loop?
Hi Dayton! Thanks for your message, hope you're well and safe.
The HX effects can be used with either series or parallel loops. Wet/Dry balance is available per effect, there isn't a global kill dry in the main menu.
Please contact us direct with other questions as you have them!

Can i use it with power amp or only with headphone ?
Has it cab clone?
Nmn Mnm no amp or cab models. Think of it as the next evolution of the M9/M13
Oh yes👍In fact PODs or even Helix as guitar processor and multieffect don't work well with tube amps so they made a special advanced multieffect.just like Fractal fx8.
Thanks Daniel!
It does say that it can load custom IRs. So you can use with amp +load box I assume?
Yes you can.
Does it loop?
Daniel Bell yep
Can I replace the Kemper Remote with it?
Andrey Sklyarov looks like it, but the amount of functionality might be limited with regards to morphing etc. But looks great!
The Kemper Remote and the Fractal MFC-101 are a joke for the money..... so yeah sure!
Stephen Fry, I couldn't disagree more. Yeah, they're expensive, but also completely worth it for the integration and ease of use.
Stephen Fry you think this is better than the Kemper? actually, a tube amp and an actual real pedal are coming back in style since these processors just don’t do it for me. Yea that’s right. Tube amp a pedal and play. No tweaking all day.
yeah, you could send any midi command to the kemper to toggle on/off the kemper's built-in effects, and run it in four cable method with the kemper so the HXFX's dry fx would be in front of the kemper and the wet fx would be in Kemper's loop.
Compare this to the Boss ms3
A much more approachable upgrade from a POD.
I don't think my comment went through, or was deleted but as I was saying the reverb has issues in the mono channel. You the mix goes up the volume goes way way down. Its a known issue that it seems not resolved. Im a bit disappointed as the reverb was a sell on the videos. Have to return. Any suggestions?
Can u change the channel on a real amp with it?
also wanting to know this
Yep
Watch around 1:55
I've been playing on multi effects for years, but then I sold my Helix because it was too much for me. I wanna go simpler now and just bought me a good amp, I'm thinking about buying either this or a Helix LT instead of pedals. Is the only difference between HX and Helix LT the amp/cab sim and the volume pedal? I would rather buy the LT if that's the case, sometimes amp/cab saved my ass on stages.
Apart from it being half the price, what is practical about the HX are the displays above the switches. So when you have it in stomp box mode you can instantly see what effect.
Love the idea a swapping my analog pedal board for this. Don’t love the sound. Maybe this is not going through an amp? Each effect sounds like the 80s. Maybe I’m being a snob and it’s confirmation bias?
Can I make a present with more than one looper?
Does this have a detune effect?
Hi, Jaws xx. Yes, the HX pedals have an effect called Poly Pitch that can work as a detune effect.
Thanks for your interest!
Charlie Davis, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, (800) 222-4700 ext. 1320, charlie_davis@sweetwater.com
PC or MAC editor?
yep, both. It's called HX Edit
I think the external editor is disabled for now
What's the price tag?
Can I use this infront of the amplifi TT?
Cj Naotda I want to know too if I can plug it into my amp. I think it’s $600.
Doesn't look super simple. Someone please make a multi effects unit that's easy to use and sounds good. With knobs that i can reach down and turn on the fly in a bar. Please
David Burleigh EHX Tone Tatto or Epitome.
Hi, can some1 tell me please HOW TO hook up a JC-Chorus Amp using FX AMP LOOP. A info : the AMP NEED to be hooked on BOTH guitar in ( Left/mono AND RIGHT ) for the stereo Effect ( specially the AMAzing Chorus of that amp. Using only LEFT / IN will not be in Stereo, i would like to use it with stereo and , if possible, running like the 4 cables methode. So how do i get finally my signal to both imput of the amp. answer appreciated. thanks
Geeze, are you trying to win a speed talk competition, late for a haircut or date?
Price?
$599.99
I was going to go with Boss RV500, DD500 and MS3 - this has all of that capability for only 599 in one box. I think that is a great price point.
Anyone know how many MIDI program changes/channels it can send per preset?
Exactly what I’m thinking.
Maybe play the box next time.
Can i get some wet dry wet with this nice piece of gear?
$600... hmm... need to think about that.
Is this the real Brian Griffin?
wonky table
Mitch , FFS slow down :)
Robin Chrystal always..... smh. every demo
I think the fast talking is supposed to build excitement around the product. Worked on me :)
😂
I just stopped in to check out the new pedal. . . instead, for 9 minutes you go over the owners manual... let's hear it, let's hear it, let's hear it!
What would be MUCH more useful is an "HX Amps" unit. Same idea (grab half of the Helix), but grab the Amp-side instead. Most people already have favorite stompboxes, be they analog or digital. But VERY FEW people have a big quality amp collection. I'd much rather pay $599 for a box-full of amps & IR's, than for a box-full of effects. Are you listening, Line 6? (and don't forget to give it a stereo effects loop or two).
I love Sweetwater and Mitch is a cool dude, but way too much talking, I could have just read the instruction manual. Would have liked to hear more of the pedal.
that's what PETE THORN IS FOR!
I can see why so many pro acts still use stomp boxes, or have a roadie/tech do all the switching. Who has time to set all this stuff up? Guess the newer generation of guitarists are better able to deal with menus and editing...
Mind you though, having separate stomp boxes for all your effects can also be cumbersome. And think of all the extra connecting cables you have to use and transportation issues. Plus buying everything separately will cost you more money. This particular device seems easy enough to use I find.
Did you watch the video? This unit is extremely user friendly and quite easy to get up and running with presets right out of the box. Depends on what you are looking for, but the menu diving on this unit is not that extreme at all.
Price is high for a stripped down Helix
Go and buy 190 or so of the effects in helix HXFX in stand alone stomp box format and let me know how much that is compared to $600 only ;)
I like Line 6 and the Helix looks good but Boss GT1 has 108 effects for $200, and they are Boss effects. GT100 has many more for $100 less than the Helix HX. Boss Katana is sweeping the latest Line 6 Spider amps so Line 6 needs to be more competitive. Plenty of Amplifi products in the shops with 3 years of dust on them and still asking > $400. Most folks acquire 5-15 pedals over 10-20 years for about $1500, then use three of them and have 7 or more in bypass haha. the Helix, amplifi, GT's etc. are the way to go but competition is ready to beat up Line 6.
I disagree. Line 6 has been beating up the competition friend. Look at the new fractal axefx III, boss gt-1000 and headrush. They all share something similar... they try to look like the helix in some way or shape. Again line 6 is at the front of the modelling game just like they have been pushing boundaries since late 90's and everyone followed.
Brock Davisson Well of this $600 unit doesn’t have modelling and only has effects then why not buy a Boss option??
Boss effects are well known to be more popular than Line 6. Thousands more Boss pedals sold than Line 6 pedals, correct ?
It’s just not worth it.
This didn't need modelling amps/cabs because they already have the line 6 helix floor and LT version and helix native computer software. This is for the guys/girls that like the helix effects but want to put it through a real amp without the modeling amp/cab/mics.
I keep hoping for something I actually like from Line 6. To me, their FX sound so cheap and artificial. I know many people like them, but to my ears, they sound cheap. I was hoping this would be different.
you.....talk......so......fast.
No he doesn't. You probably just talk way too slow.
waaaaay to much talking for e Demo. Stop talking so much. 98% your are talking is 100% self-explainetary. You don't demo it for 90 year old chines women.
