Looks like the up down arrows in Stomp mode can do whatever you wantAre the up/down arrows and mode and tap buttons able to have midi commands assigned to them to switch external gear? Or is it that thing where silkscreened values on the switches represent the only things you can do with those switches?
Excellent. Good to know. I wouldn't use the back two buttons but the up arrow with a switch topper would be definitely do-able.Looks like the up down arrows in Stomp mode can do whatever you want
I'd have to rethink my preset methods but I think it's doable. I use the EXP to engage the loop and 2 of the 3 stomp switches to engage multiple blocks. I would use either the 3rd Stomp switch or one of the extra XL switches to switch channels on my amp via midi. The question would be to see how using these additional switches would work for switching while not futzing up my switching needs in the preset currently running.Hmm.. And I think you can assign the Mode and tap switches to midi assignments at least with the Helix Floor. In the one picture in the manual it looks like those two switches are grayed out
If I can assign snapshot toggle to just one switch and leave the other 2 dedicated to turning of multiple effects blocks; I'll be good.I *think* you can use the switches to toggle snapshots, and you can assign PCs to snapshots.

You still get IR loading with HXFX. What amps do you have? If the tone isn't relying heavily on power tube saturation your amps preamp and do an iron block maybe all you need to scratch the direct itch. I have a Stomp but am using it in 4CM with an MT15 and use the preamp into an IR at home and it sounds goodOnce you get everything figured out, let me know. Going to buy a Stomp, Stomp XL, or HXFX eventually. Leaning to a HXFX just because from what I have read in the manual, you can assigned almost any switch to anything you want including midi for amp control, but the fear of missing out on the amps/cabs is strong.
RTFM for me too

I thought you were selling your Stomp?I think I am going to set up a preset on my Stomp and do some testing.
