Nothing can top the hx stomp in terms of value for money.. The stomp is legendary.

[BrownCurtainStudio]

Potentially a replacement for the Line 6 M5 on my board. The M5 is a great piece of gear, but the on/off switch has seen much better days through the years of use and I've just been living with how quirky the switching is. I like this new guy.

[FANGSONFIRE]

I think people are looking at this the wrong way, it’s one pedal that can be over 250 different pedals, used in conjunction with other pedals on your board. Doesn’t seem that outrageously wrong to me. Want to do more, get the Stomp. The Stomp had this inherent thread that seemed like it ran through every effect that I didn’t care for. Not sure I would get this either, but I might.

[JohnnyOskam]

This looks like the perfect pedal for my more traditional pedalboard rig as an all-in-one pedal for modulation and other various effects. I use a boss MD-200 for all my modulation sounds but sometimes I wish it had pitch shifting. Having the HX one means I could, and could also occasionally use a fuzz if I wanted. Sounds fun 🤩

[Mheyos]

this year is amazing for guitar players !

[dividedbytimestudios]

Can we get an HX 2 that is only Amp and IR with no FX?

[timm]

I have been looking an affordable Line 6 helix effects pedal. The HX One is almost there. Everything about this pedal sounds great. I like the flux automation feature. thanks

[chrisfit]

2-3 slots would have made this an instant buy. But just one is tough.

[DrGregWeisswasserND]

Better cost pretty cheap or just get an HX Effects used for a bit more.

[vickygunawan]

Another masterpiece from line 6, I want it !

[plutoniumzeppelin]

Can you only run 1 effect at a time?

If so, can you combine multiple effects into a single “preset”

[MarkCoffin]

This looks to be another great product from Line 6. I can't wait to see how they update the next generation Helix family to go up against the capture capabilities of Tone X, Headrush Prime, Quad Cortex, etc. Please, please, please, Line 6???!

I bought a line 6 M5 at a pawn shop a few days ago for $5 it wasn't working it just had a switch that was bad the on-off switch need to be replaced so I opened it up put it in a whole new housing put new switches in it and it works good it seems like an M5 with a few upgrades I'll wait a few years until I can pick one up for 5 bucks with the broken switch

[george.kollaros]

It's the same principle like the M5 that I have. I like it for Flanger/Chorus/Phaser, occasionally for Octaver or Harmoniser, but I don't want to buy a lot of pedals to use once here and for another part there. This will have much better quality sounds but at a higher price.

[Lael]

It’s a cool Swiss Army Knife pedal with great tones! I’d probably end up using it as a modulation/delay pedal most of the time as I’m well served with drives… the addition of a tuner also frees up the board nicely.

Just wish it had two effect slots to definitively make this the best solution to space saving.

[BrentODell]

I'd love to hear demos of all the reverbs. My amp has a basic reverb, but for bigger sounds I've been looking at getting something dedicated

[oigorboechat]

if u could have like a 3 effect signal chain just like the plethora it would be a KILLER product, must buy. But now, its an ok product if u want versatility on a small rig

[mauricegaddin]

Great option, but for me what would be great is the HX FX in a stomp size fully midi controllable. Stomp is a bit pricey for my needs due to being a third world child, our exchange rate is pathetic, and I don't need the amps and cabs as I have 2 options Friedman IR-X and BluGuitar AMP1 and will use the drives on my pedalboard. May still pull the trigger on this as it can provide more flexible options for me. Keen to see the support manual.

[mikegutterman]

Finally a replacement for my very used Line 6 M5!!

[markramage]

Thanks for the in depth look. This seems like an awestdevice 💕
