Nice video! It'd be great if you showed that you can also touch the footswitch to assign them

Just got a stomp XL today. I was making presets with the desktop app and it works really nice. Using just the unit is kinda confusing so I’ll def be using this

Ryan. Great tutorial. The casual mention of one button for snapshot switch at about 3:30 (and then 19:50 or so) was worth the price of admission. Watched a ton of videos on snapshot mode and how to use it and none of them (I believe) mentioned this easy way to switch between different snapshots. Tx.

i got a stomp XL about a year ago. I reckon it is the perfect form factor and size for gigging. I added a midi controller for more switches and thats it.

I see Gentle Hearts tour in the back. Tetsuo Sakurai is the reason i bought a 6 string bass. Greg Howe is (one of) the reasons i love fusion and is my favorite guitarist of all time. I met Dennis Chambers at a Victor Wooten show in Baltimore. He is from Baltimore, so he came to the show as a fan. Was just standing in the back. Was pretty sure no one else knew, then Victor literally says between songs, "I see my friend Dennis Chambers in the house back there".

Been rocking with an LT for the last 8 years or so but really want to transition to Stomp XL cuz it's form factor is perfect with just the right number of switches.
I can just add an after market expression pedal and I will be set.
But my lt is too beat up for me to milk out the fund for a new XL from it.

Dang.
Good video.

hey ryan great tutorial!! What switch toppers are you using and are they reasonably solid?

Can you create presets without choosing an amp+cab and just use your amps own distortion? Like create some presets that run through the pre amp and others after in the effects loop? With the 4 cable method, or what's the best way to use this with a tube amp that already has good distortion and you just want to add effects?

Hi, do you have a video showing how to use the helix (I have a stomp xl) with an amp's effects loop?
I want the Stomp's 'distortion effects' to go straight into the "front" of the amp but the 'delays and reverbs' to go into the amp's effects loop (no amp modeling desired)
(I have a hand-wired Rivera Fender Concert amp w effects loop in back of it. awesome amp)

Hi. For stereo use do you need a TSR cable in the output?

[astralcourtmusician]
